    Ignore the part that says Ed Sheeran, the other 700 (approximate guess) should satisfy

    :rolleyes: anyone else you thinks better than ed sheeran? maybe your mate bob as well?? and your next door neighbour? and your dog as well?
    Why can't my mate Bob and neighbour be better? Eds songwriting is simple/poor at best. I don't have a dog but if I did I'm sure that'd sound better too.

    That's hilarious, and says more about you than it does them.

    Not massive, but someone with a name like Pan Ron already has more respect from me than someone who writes things like "now I'm in town break it down thinking of making a new sound"

    I'm nearly 21, when I was 15/16 I was at my best mate's house (typical weekend) and his elder brother was home for the weekend. His brother had been seeing a girl and they are still together today. Any way, his brother was saying how he had heard his girlfriend's cousin sing and how he had never heard anybody like it.

    Turns out her cousin who was singing is Ed Sheeran.

    I like that his stuff is more stripped back and acoustic compared to most other artists in the chart right now.
    Saying that, I find his stuff a tad too dull. Not bad, but I wouldn't go out and buy his CDs.

    He's good. I think he adds a new type of style to the mainstream music that's around these days.

    The fact that he writes (lyrically and musically) and performs his own songs, deserves acknowledement in a generation of reality pop star nothingness.

    Personally find him over-hyped, and seems to try way too hard to be something he isn't - the whole 'rough and tumble' look doesn't really work when you were educated at an academy and have a TV presenter as your cousin, sorry!

    Two brilliant songs. The rest are simply below average.

    A one-trick pony.
