His voice reminds me of Adele in this in a strange way but I like what I'm hearing. I'm thinking they should record something together now.

I really like it. It's not nearly as good as the best songs on +, but it's promising enough for me to anticipate x.

I can admit that this does NOT sound like an Ed Sheeran song, but it just... WORKS. Love it!

This is easily his most instant single for me. I don't really care for him usually but I use this.

Smash. Givng me JT/Pharell vibes. Speaking of which, wonder if this will hinder the next Pharell single?

Then there would be a lot of that early-2000's revival feel for this year. We're already having that with Rixton and New Hollow (and... maybe The Pretty Reckless, but they're not top 50 on Pop yet).

Meh, don't really care for it. This probably won't do much. Maybe a 26-30 peak.

If I was hearing this for the first time and didn't know who sang it, I would think it was Justin Timberlake.

I love this song!!! It sounds nothing like any of Ed's previous songs. This is a smash. That Pharrell knows how to make hit songs. Personally i Come Get it Bae is in the running song of the summer. But this song is up there too 1. Get Lucky 2. Blurred Lines 3. Happy 4. Sing

Apparently they're playing this every hour at KIIS. Clear Channel deal? Or is it gonna be something similar to what "Come & Get It" did last year?

Both z100 and KIIS are already all over this. Plus look at its current iTunes position. SMASH.

...Eh. It's not bad, but I'm not instantly won over by it. The "ohhh whoas" are pretty annoying - actually, it feels like Pharrell's contribution to this beyond the basic production is exactly what's keeping me from embracing it. Apparently they're playing this every hour at KIIS. Clear Channel deal? Both z100 and KIIS are already all over this. Gotta be.

I can't wait to see him perform this on SNL this Saturday. They are lining him up to have a good debut on the charts next week.

It is #4 on iTunes right now!
I LOVE this! I love that he is going to embrace radio a bit. He said in the Q&A today there are a couple "new" sounding songs (like this) and still plenty of his "old sound" like on his debut album. At the Grammys, he said he had around 4 songs that were "for the radio" (this song was recorded just after the Grammys) so maybe it is 5 now, who know. there also will be a deluxe edition with bonus tracks and b-sides will be released soon! should be a good era with a variety of music and I'm really excited with this.

You can definitely hear the Pharrell/JT vibes in this. I really like it, but it's not as good as the best material from +. It's good enough to keep me jamming along though.
