I added this to my playlist almost a year ago lol. Very late but It would be cool to see this become a hit in the US

I'm surprised this is going next but really, I shouldn't be. It makes sense. I wonder if that means it'll make a comeback in Canada? My station still plays it regularly even during the whole of Perfect's chart run.

This was on the radio constantly in Canada. Like for the past 6 months, especially on Sirius. Nobody is going to spin it like Perfect when itβs kind of already came and went. Not sure about the US.

I'm burned out on this from it playing on Hits 1. Now that it may get popular I can grow back into it. I'm excited lol.

Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, I guess? I don't even care that this is almost a year late, I've been wanting this to chart in the US ever since I first heard it.

This was the best song on the album by a large margin, for me, so I am glad to see it coming out next. I did think 'Happier' would have made a great single, but this is better.

This sounds like nothing on pop radio, but I hope radio eats it up just because it's Ed.

This is one of my favorites. It makes sense for the US. Probably will suffer the same fate as Castle, which never quite blew up because a lot of people knew it way before it's actual run as a single.

Happier is better period. Funny how he's manager or label change their mind when last month on chart beat they said that they will go with happier.

To be fair, I think the times Happier has been mentioned has been in publications outside the US, where this song isn't an option because it was already the third single last year.

What the hell?
I'm hoping Atlantic actually sends Happier to international radio because I don't want this to be overplayed like hell here again. Literally every single from Divide, both domestic and international, got nonstop spins here.

Him taking innocuous stuff like "Shape Of You" to the top doesn't bother me. But this is absolutely f**king horrific. Probably gonna smash.

I don't think it'll hurt to throw this out there to radio and see if it can snatch spins from - or in addition to - Perfect. If it never takes off, try another one in a couple months - by then Perfect will have far less pull.

Was Galway Girl already released in your country? I wouldn't expect the UK, for example, to fall in love with it all over again just because it's the current US single, just like the US run did not revive Castle on the countries where it was already done.

I thought Happier was next? This song is good, but I've already played it a ton... and the ending is repetitive and boring. He needs to remix it for the U.S. with a rapper or something.

FINALLY! This should have been a single a long, long time ago. This is easily one of the best things he has ever done. I would love it if we have a revival of Celtic and Irish sounds in Pop music.

It had played in some radios in Brazil so I think they sent it as a single.

pop culture do ya thang and destroy this mediocre firecracker that ya'll idolized and turned into a monster. The most pandering song he's ever released and that's really saying something for Ed Sheeran. I remember reading an interview featuring him and he said he fought for this song being on the album because "Americans love thinking they're Irish" or some shit like that. Can't wait for this to go #1 for twelve weeks and stay in the top 10 for five years like all his other songs!

Siruis XM Hits 1 has been playing this as if it were a single for a year. I think it reached the top 10 in their Weekend Countdown a long time ago.

Please, release anything, anything that make Perfect disappear. I'm tired of changing the channel everything that song pops on the radio (which means a lot because it's everywhere)

Ew no. Iβm over this era, canβt they just end it already?! Iβd have chosen Happier or Supermarket Flowers anyday over this.

Hearing Galway Girl will be better than hearing Perfect every half hour.

This song seems to be quite controversial here.

I just can't imagine this is going to be a big hit. I sure hope it is, but it basically was already a single in the US. Didn't it sell over 1 million copies as well? It was constantly on iTunes charts and satellite radio for weeks/months as well. But it might be a nice little spring smash as well.
I still think maybe there is going to be a remix for the U.S.
The song is essentially only 2:26 long with a 0:24 outro. I think it would be awesome to remix it. It just feels so short and such a demo right now.
