During his livestream today, Ed said that the second single from = will be released on September 10th. He sang a bit of it towards the end as well. Starts around the 14:30 mark. http://instagram.com/p/CSwdBdtCe4k

BH is the song of the summer worldwide, so he is on the roll.

Listed as a Hot Pick by WBBM-FM, KNOU-FM and WZPL-FM, so it's safe to say that this will be pushed at Pop. Also, there's a known Hot AC impact date, so looks like this will go for adds upon its release as well.

Out now
I really really like this
I had assumed he’d perform this at the NFL kickoff tonight cause that would align perfectly with a midnight UK release, and he did.

It's cute. Nothing we haven't heard before, but it's way better than BH (which I also enjoyed).

Don’t expect a big first day with ed Sheeran anymore (Streams), if it smashes it will take weeks if not months

This is so good. Another single that I like more than anything on Divide. I hear Bedrock in this as well, but it doesn’t seem intentional. Outside of that, I get a lot of late 90s vibes. Even more excited for this album now!

Love that he's going full pop for this album, none of this barely pop/barebones acoustic beat shit like Divide (see: Shape Of You). Like actual pop music.

Whoa whoa whoa. You mean a song that has a fun pre-chorus and actually turns into an EVEN BETTER chorus and NOT an underwhelming drop?
Pop music is back, baby!

I like it but it does feel like it’s safe in some ways. And unnecessarily too long. I didn’t need to hear the chorus 6 times. Could’ve been 30 seconds shorter or so. It reminds me a bit of “I Don’t Care.”

This is as calculated as pop can get, which means it is totally horrendous! If Bad Habits somehow gave an impression of a musician trying to make pop art, then this here shows plain and simple - Ed is a pop culture product with all it's fake shiny glitter and plastic pearls! He is only after money, which means musically Shivers has zero value!

This is way better than BH , Both melodically and production wise. A hit.

Might be a bit too wordy for me, the chorus and hook does not stand out
