i am but just checking if you have the karaoke version of this song, would appreciate it if you would send it to me

[@svetashee]

I do ❤️

[@wapangshiluimsong4596]

It's super great!!!! The song's awesome!!

[@mikechurch1549]

"Been a while since I've done this" and then proceeds to melt all of our brains. Truly an unbelievable talent.

[@lucashayhurst4336]

Hahaha

[@tabathastaples7884]

Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Pastor Murray is an Anointed Servant of GOD who teaches the Word of GOD with Authority!!!!!!!

[@paulaharris6407]

He wanted to be Jeff Buckley. Listen how rubbish this cover is to Jeff's.

[@erinbenites8815]

Stuck to the original lyrics, and I RESPECT that. Outstanding.

[@tinacummings9692]

I love this cause I am an African American and my grandfather worked in the shipyard and they would sing songs just like this (ex.ROSIE) and it gave it justice, Ed Sheeran has a lot of soul. It made me smile in honor of my grandfather.

[@lazy604]

Ed Sheeran is fucking amazing.

[@Sharonheable]

"I haven't done this in a while" *walks away leaving everyone speechless*

[@Jirangaaa]

ed saying daddy is just so fucking perfect

[@novasays2748]

Lol ikr

[@VanLe-ik1bo]

Picked up the guitar. Slayed. Walked away like nothing happened..

[@warewolf435]

Usually I hate listening to live performances because in them the singers sound nothing like they do when recording in a studio. Ed sounds flawless no matter where he's singing.

[@izzyb480]

ed: *does an amazing performance* ed: *finishes* ed: *takes off guitar and head phones and walks out* ed: sorted

[@xXxBlondielovexXx]

For some reason I always thought he said "sorry" and I was like omg what

[@CROAiva]

+Izzy T what does he actually mean by "sorted" ://

[@sarahcrisp9194]

+ivy he just means something like "done"

[@CROAiva]

Haha! My cookie. thank you ! the definitions of the word on the net didint really make sense here xdd

[@sarahcrisp9194]

no problem =)

[@charlottec158]

The god of the loop pedal

[@beenishakhtar5808]

Takes a man secure in himself to not feel the need to change the lyrics to a song like that. And that is hella sexy. Agree with most of the comments about that on here.

[@Evelyn_guitar]

8 years later and I still love this, like most male singers would have tried to change the lyrics but Ed just SAYS it without hesitation ❤ that's how much I luv his confidence

[@SithkalekGolfAndGaming]

I feel like Nina Simone would jam out so hard to him singing her song like this.

[@Jiovi92]

Anyone has the feeling Ed Sheeran should cover every song in the world? and i really mean every song. From "bohemian rhapsody" to "who let the dogs out".

[@MamaCatCat]

YES I love his cover of any given song more than the original. He should cover everything!!!

[@Nush]

He did Drunk in Love by Beyonce XD hilarious but amazing

[@mohigney1]

me thinks not !!!

[@shauntelford8193]

his cover of baby one more time by britney spears is the only bearable version of that song ever made. i'd like to hear him do all the songs from this years X Factor. get rid of the contestants, and just have ed do all the covers. it could be called the "ed's factor" ...that pun was not worth it.

[@virreification]

"Who let the dogs out" would be sick ;)

[@newreflection]

When I saw him in concert, he was so passionate and powerful when he sang, but when he was done and everyone was applauding, he thanked us and the crew and hurried off the stage like he was embarrassed by the screams.

[@rorywilliams549]

Ed is a fucking musical maestro been following since day before hd was even on sbtv it's good to see someone who deserves the praise reap the rewards of his hard work the only ginger with soul !!!!!

[@sammi4982]

agree with you 99.9%- All GINGERS have SOUL!!! :)

[@lesliem825]

from you lips to Gods ears pure TRUTH....!!! he is ONE talented man and NEW song Make It Rain...OHHH GOD AMMMMMMAZING!!!!

[@millestone8457]

OMG YASSSSSSS!! HE IS EVERYTHING! Also, I read 'the only ginger with soul' as 'the only ginger with A soul' XD

[@Techihhila124]

Ed is flawless. I don't get it why people keep talking about his visual appearance, all that counts is his music. And at least, I admire him for staying himself. No extraordinary clothing or trying to fit in society's standards. Start talking about Ed staying true to himself, even if being surrounded by the superficial and sick music business of today.

[@floor8787]

So true 👌

[@desiduds]

I agree completely. If I was a singer or any sort or celebrity, I would dress the way I wanted to. I hate ppl changing who they are.

[@mathiiilr]

and I like it anyway ^^

[@tiffloveskelly]

I think he's beautiful. I agree with *****, he is the most adorable human in existence.

[@courtneybuliga3164]

Am I the only one who finds him gorgeous?

[@harrietstar5783]

How on earth have I only just started listening to this. FARRR OUT!!!!

[@Unidentified_userr]

He could cover itsy bitsy spider and it will be gold.

[@JonathanChute]

Holy shit, can this be done?

[@ksenijajemensek6126]

Yeah.

[@somethingclever4563]

Darious Hart lol probably true

[@Cintarireee]

It's only true because everything Ed Sheeran touches is freaking gold #he is like Greek god

[@vijant1395]

Darious Hart I know right 😂😂 or the a b c

[@CatherineCane]

A lot of artists try and change songs to make them more heterosexual and it would be impossible to do that for this song (the entire thing is about marrying a man, no male singer could make this song straight) but I'm really glad he did it anyway and didn't try to change anything

[@PwoperLarissa]

Jeff Buckley did it, and it's just as good. Be Your Husband, it's called. Actually, I like Jeff's version better, but Ed Sheeran's is also incredibly good.

[@CatherineCane]

Larissa Reyes I'll check out that version! I just like it when artists aren't too scared to keep the lyrics the same haha. Taylor Swift covers male songs and leaves the female pronouns, too.

[@CatherineCane]

Larissa Reyes ah yes I'm a queer too lmao But thanks! I couldn't figure out a way to change it haha

[@Jman3d5]

completely agree super annoying when people change the pronouns it completely changes the meaning of the song he interpreted it the way it was supposed to be done.

[@austin-wj9tm]

Yeh, and if they do change the words like that, and publish the song as their own, they can get sued...

[@BeanieBiker_AutisticRider]

he will always be known as the one man band who sold out Wembley stadium not once but twice, the living legend that is the rare ginger Ed Sheeran

[@veronicam2935]

Ed Sheeran has performed at wembley stadium 12 times now, the first time in 2015 he did 3 nights in row , 2018 4 times and 2022 5 times during his tours

[@TheProffessorFuzzbal]

ed literally put a spell on me. like this is magic. no lie.

[@giuliaj.1271]

And this is what Ed Sheeran can do with his guitar and a loop pedal...god, this performance is EPIC.

[@mellieb.7933]

Gingers have no souls because Ed Sheeran took all of it

[@hmngbrd]

Without a doubt, he is my favorite artist.

[@tmnittewolde1816]

I love how he says "cool" after every song.

[@xoSiNgInGiNtHeRaInox]

i really really love this cover.

[@Panddaz]

Him singing this gives me chills. It's so beautiful, especially hearing him sing it live OH GINGER JESUS.

[@zestyconversation]

Put this version on Spotify though, I'm BEGGING.

[@meghansmith7344]

Ed Sheeran is the most amazing singer. Just omg 😍😍😍 he's perfection❤️❤️

[@claudiarohrich8935]

He's simply the best musician i know...holy shit....great, he built songs

[@Slowasflexus]

Loop pedal, guitar and voice all you need and it sounds golden till this day

[@tommyg9283]

I'll be his husband any day

[@MyJamie1982]

Tommy G ahahahahaha your funny 🤣

[@SilverFlame819]

I'm a chick, and I'd totally volunteer. :D

[@magdalenalammes2355]

Me too and I'm a girl 😂

[@maritzasantoyo3046]

Ever since his concert when he preformed this live, I've always been blown away with the fact that you clap every 7 seconds through out the entire song, start to finish, and it fits in perfectly in between every verse! try it, when he starts playing the guitar, clap every 7 seconds.

[@lilecornwell2211]

The way he just breathtakingly performed that song (which is probably the best cover of any song he's covered!) and he just said "cool. Sorted" afterwards😂he's just such a humble and down to earth guy :)

[@ntstephens96]

That was a dogdamn amazing performance 3:58 if you don't get it

[@tatiteixeira4646]

hahahahahahahaha I was looking for somebody mentioning that in the comments... thanks! hahahahahahaha

[@lazy604]

I love that he took a song that is by a girl and sings it without changing the lyrics to sound like a boy.

[@sarap2777]

Lazy OH GOD YOU'RE JUST SO RIGHT, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY SINGERS CHANGE THE LYRICS

[@elisan685]

after five years this still gives me chills

[@magconspeasant6526]

hearing ed go "oh daddy now now love me good" just made my day. ha cx

[@rhapsodicchimera9768]

I'm avid/hardcore Nina fan and I was afraid this was going to be awful, but I am sooooo loving Eds version of this.

[@SilverFlame819]

I love being pleasantly surprised by covers, because it's so rare!! :)

[@tabathastaples7884]

Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!! Pastor Murray is an Anointed Servant of GOD who teaches the Word of GOD with Authority!!!!!!!

[@Ekkb]

Each. EACH of his performances is a pure perfection.

This man is literally the only man who'd make me consider becoming another man's hubby!

[@neesha901]

This is the best comment🤣🤣

[@PorshaLaVieBelle]

🤣😂😂😂😂😭😭

[@angelarogers7029]

Just discovered this song and loved it by Nina Simone. But i love it even more the way Ed Sheeran has performed it with so much soul!!

[@Koribaby1]

It does my soul good to come revisiting Ed's 2012 Live Room videos. Lord. They wreck me.

[@Ginjaninja71]

Wow! Self confidence is so sexy! He's fantastic!!

[@PinkDevil98]

By the end of it we're all staring at our screens like "This performance was heavenly" and then Ed just walks away like "Yeah, cool, no biggie".

[@MsJazminlovesyou]

He is so talented, i cant help but fall in love with him.

[@harrietstar5783]

I swear this song is just utter and complete perfection. I'd love to hear him sing this again now in 2023

[@shirleyiricktaylor2604]

He sounds amazing. I love Nina & this is an awesome cover

[@iamannatar]

PURE GOLD...................... What a preformance! I have heard this version so many times! OMG the chills are real EVERY TIME!

[@RenaRoo123]

It's very rare you get a singer who truly a performer. Ed knows what hes doing and he does so incredibly well, I get chills from his performances all the time.

[@Dame.Duchess]

As a huge Nina Simone fan, this is just sublime

[@asara443]

It's so crazy that someone can be so good and talented ! I swear that I could listen to this all my life and wouldn't mind. I just ... waw !

[@jeffffro7674]

I was privileged enough to see him open for the freaking Rolling Stones, in a stadium full to the brim with 60thousand PLUS!!! I commented to my amazingly beautiful company for that magical night and told her, this dude has got some kind of confidence!!!! Even if the Stones said they would cancel their tour if I turned down the offer to open for them, I would still be corpse stiff, white, pale skinned and scared as hell to walk on an enormous stage with nothing but an acoustic guitar and microphone, to perform to more people than the entire population of a lot of towns and cites!! He did. He was exactly as good as any time I've heard, live or mastered in a studio. This kid is seemingly inhuman! At the same time, more human than most could ever hope to be. WTF!?!?? I actually saw a lot of folks LEAVE after his opening show for one of the most successful bands in the last century! Screw Jagger, they came for a nerdy red head brit covered in tattoos and torn Jean's. If this doesn't give you confidence to do ANYTHING possible, nothing can. Wow.

[@brendanhagerty5288]

jeffffro7674. Very eloquent.

[@lukesp978]

The reason I never comment on ed's videos is coz u cannot put into words how amazing he is :)

[@sheilabirling1304]

every time I hear him sing I want to dance and hug everyone.... awkward? I don´t think so.... they are only the collateral effects of loving Ed Sheeran!

[@troywayne7135]

I always wanna sing :D

[@vv474]

That almost silent 1,2,3 in 0:15 is perfect!!! 😊💗

[@rachaelhynds3679]

One of my favorite covers of Ed's oml I swear he sings so perfectly with literally no effort. Amazes me every time.

[@fatimahrahman5]

any man who covers a jazz song is a saint in my books. i love him and any person who didn't think 'yes yes yes i'll marry you ed' is either blind or deaf.

[@giselleskyers]

Love him so much. I like everything about Ed. He's real, authentic, fun and passionate! While other artists are trying to sell how they look, Ed is only giving us amazing music and real talent. I hope to listening him for a very long, long time. Great cover and I am a truly Nina Simone fan.

[@SilverFlame819]

It's sad how few views this has compared to the other songs he did that were not covers. People are really missing out!

[@heatherstokes9885]

he should of won that grammy

[@tswiftfanful]

"I haven't done this in a while" ... Then he slays it. Well that's ed for you xx

[@LittleBitOfThisNThat]

Words can't describe how good he is. These Live Rooms are amazing.

[@JojoAndSnickerz]

I love it when Ed sings live , he's amazing and so passionate

[@sophieroot6951]

Possibly one of the best renditions I have ever heard😍

[@machin8593]

The rebirth of the "daddy" trend started here lmao

[@mpasebapaseba1394]

Awesome, powerful voice. A confident-in-his-skin, Pure Talent!

[@zeafreethinker]

I love this song and he does an awesome version of it. Nina's songs are kinda hard to live up to, the originals are amazing.

[@ksenijajemensek6126]

This is the best COVER OF THIS SONG. ED is so AMAZING.

[@Baddaxbingx3]

His covers are my favorite thing about him. He just adds something else to the songs that makes even better (not saying the songs aren't great already)

[@laurensabino182]

And he's just releasing an official cover!

[@LuanaOliveira-es1kp]

Wow, i don't have words to describe this! Ed is THE BEST for me, He can put so passion in all that he sings! Everytime that i hear Ed is amazing, you can feel his energy! I Love him!!!

[@fayphillips626]

Every time I hear him sing I love him more Ed is super talented with a capital T I love this song 😊😍

[@alifeinseoul]

Pretty sure I count for at least 8,245 of these views on my own, SO GOOD.

Pretty sure youtube's algorithms take IP adresses into account and that this therefore doesn't work.

Wow, only just found this, love nina simone's version obviusly, and for years have adored Damien Rice's version and to find Ed doing it - Awesome!

[@kari1543]

this has been stuck in mah head all night

"been a while since i've done this" *blows everyone away* "cool"

True artist. Doesn't need to be so extra. He himself is EXTRAORDINARY.

[@eslamberson]

He is such an awesome talent!

[@megans.427]

SO unbelieveable every time!

[@adammuffmanmorsley4038]

this along with "i see fire" in the studio, are just truly sensational

[@foxjereeparks]

"Haven't done this in a while" my ass. You fucking rocked that. Cool sorted. 👂👏😍

[@shanesims1803]

He literally only used a guitar and his voice...

[@MsGilly]

+Shane Sims He is that badass and talented.

[@Ramzohh]

Believe it or not, but that used to be the norm. That's why I watch Ed, because he's refreshing from all of today's utter shite.

[@mirocristianmuniz5059]

If you're impressed with that, check out Jeff Buckley's version. He only uses his voice and a hand beat.

[@freethinker1013]

+Ramiro Muniz This made me think of Jeff Buckley. He loved Nina Simone

[@mirocristianmuniz5059]

+SPN Girl Of course. Through him, I became a fan of hers.

[@extrememakeoverfan]

His voice always does something to me, but especially on this song

[@reginakneip8858]

He performed this song at the Hurricane festival 2014! I didn't know it, and now I just randomly found this and omg I'm almost crying!

[@allysonlong7114]

These live recordings are so prime! I can't even handle it!

[@lequidsnake]

I'd turn gay for this guy. Music is flawless

[@ChasNotChase]

petition to get Ed Sheeran to play Nina Simone instead of Zoe Saldana

[@makenziewood4047]

Lolololol I'd sign it.

[@mmurph617]

This is the Ed Sheeran I know. The soul, the grit, the emotion, the musicianship. No heavy production, no artifice. I don't know who this trend-following, manufactured industry jellyfish is that I've been seeing recently.

[@liannasims889]

Love his voice and what he did with this song! Amazing
