Since pop artist Ed Sheeran scooped Best Male and Best breakthrough act at the 2012 Brit Awards, Ed Sheeran's popularity has soared sky high. His lyrics, tunes, performance skills and fashion sense are superb, and I (like so many others) can hardly wait for his next song. It seems Ed and his followers can't be stopped, and in the words of Sheeran 'I'm going up in an elevator'.

There are many great qualities about Ed Sheeran. Ed writes his own lyrics, so it's impossible not to admire his creativity. But Ed Sheeran's musical style gives his songs a new dimension when both recording and listening. His music videos (unlike some many others), help fans to both understand the storyline and enjoy the music. And that's another thing! I have noticed nearly all of Sheeran's songs have a story line. Listen to Little Bird, Small Bump, A Team or Lego House; they all have story lines...

To sum up, he's a brilliant artist who I believe, has genuine talent. If you haven't heard him yet (which would mean you've either had your head in the sand or been fast asleep for the past three years!) you don't know what you're missing. A ten out of ten from me, Ed!
