If you need me, I'll just be swooning over here.

7 Of Ed Sheeran's Best Lyrics
Capital FM

Alright, everyone. We can relax now. Take a deep breath. Ed Sheeran released 2 new singles over the weekend after like 2 years of nothing, and honestly, I feel like 2017 has been saved. God bless.

So, in honor of his two new singles being released, I made a list of some of his best lyrics, in my opinion. It was hard to narrow it down, considering all of his songs are just written basically like straight up poetry, so almost every line is beautiful. But I did my best.


You Need Me, I Don't Need You

"They say I’m up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator"

Probably my favorite song off of +, and this line just makes me laugh at the cleverness of it every time.


U.N.I.

"And I don't get waves of missing you anymore
They're more like tsunami tides
In my eyes"

This man excels at word play, it's incredible. Also, dang, depressing lyric.


The Man

"Success is nothing if you have no one left to share it with."

You ever have a lyric in a song, where every time you listen to it, you just are like, man, that is so good? That's like me with this lyric. Don't know why, but it's just so deep and kind of haunting. I love it.


Drunk

"What didn't kill me,
It never made me stronger at all"

Man, life definitely feels like this sometime.


Wake Me Up

"And I'll make you a heart pendant / With a pebble held in my hand
And I'll carve it like a necklace / So the heart falls where your chest is
...So you just need to breathe / To feel my heart against yours now"

This lyric is just so darn cute and innocent sounding, it's so sweet.



Afire Love

"My father told me, son,
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face.
"

If you heard a loud crack, that's just the sound of my heart breaking.


Castle On The Hill

"Found my heart and broke it here
Made friends and lost them through the years
And I've not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know I've grown
But I can't wait to go home"

This song just screams nostalgia, and I absolutely dig it.


There you have it, folks. And that's only from his albums + and X. He's got other EPs from previous years that I haven't even listened to yet! There's plenty of Ed's material to be heard, and I highly suggest you listen to it.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
