It has been a long 2016, there is no denying that. However, 2017 is already starting to look brighter... and I personally would like to thank Mr. Ed Sheeran for that. In December 2015, he broke our hearts little by little when he announced his long awaited (and well-deserved) break to "see everything he had missed." Last Friday, he threw us all a life jacket with the release of two new singles off of his new album "Divide."
To celebrate, I've compiled a list of my top nine Ed Sheeran songs (and lyrics). In the spirit of complete transparency, I'd like to emphasize this is complete and total opinion and they are also in no particular order.
