We played this for our mother when she passed away. We looked at songs to play for her service and I ran across this song. I had never heard it before. Pretty much took me to my knee’s at 60 years old. I was asked to speak at her funeral and I added his words ( a heart that’s been broke is a heart that’s been loved ) to my speech about mom. After I spoke this song was played, our minister was sitting directly in front of me. He had never heard the song before and I could see him listening to the words. By the last chorus he was saying the words to the song. When the funeral was over he came and talked to me about what I had said and what a wonderful song. I must have listened to it a 100 times before her funeral with the thought that if I heard it enough it wouldn’t hit me so hard. I was wrong…. 10 months later and it still hits me. What a song and what a performer…. Simply the best!

DUde..no! Ed admits that whatever he has become, has become out of practice and determination. go check out his very early singing vids...you wont be able to believe that it's the same person who is singing in this video with such a huge crowd. Nobody has a gift. GOD is not partial. It's only our efforts that allow us to harness the oppurtunities that god provides us and turn them into gifts.

It's very touching for me. He had nothing. And now? Do you see this crowd? It's hard to believe. From the street to the big stage. Now he has love, fame and money. He can do whatever he wants. But he is still the same funny guy who played on the street in the socks. Ed proved that dreams come true and that we should never give up. I wish him all the best. Edit: He wasn't homeless and I was wrong. Sorry for my mistake. ;) But I still admire him a lot.

The saddest and most heartfelt moment is during the songwriter film, watching him play it to his dad for the first time, fighting back the tears, sippng his coffee and staring into the cup, when the song ends, glancing up through teerful eyes looking for approval from his father who himself, off camera is probably fighting back tears himself. brought tears to my 50 years old eyes.....Ed, your grandmother will beso proud.

Jonny Zywiciel Will you sub to me?

[@JonnyZye]

Agreed!

[@AusticHardOfHearingSinger]

Jonny Zywiciel Agreed. His song seems better than Train's song written about when the lead singer of Train lost his mother.

[@bigrickmachine]

So glad he performed this instead of his usual awards ceremony song Shape of You

[@anubhabhalder5703]

True.. it's sooo heart touching 💓

I had this played when my beautiful mum was laid to rest. Makes me cry every time I listen to it. The words really hit home she is no longer here. Miss her so much it physically hurts😢

I couldn’t find what was off in this video but then i realized he is singing without his guitar wow

[@angieswinburne902]

Mhm yeah

[@CuteVampireRina]

I just need to call my mom and say I love her. I usually skipped this song in Divide. Not because it's bad, but because I cannot fight tears when I hear it, it just tears me apart! Now I listen to it and don't even fight with my emotions, this song is AMAZING! Ed is gorgeous as usual and the global success award was 100% deserved!

[@SophiaTheOriginal]

Rina Fedorovich true my grandma passed away after a long fight of cancer in may last year and when this song has been released, i knew that i would always connect it with her 💔

[@alessiocece2098]

Rina Fedorovich its OK to cry every now and then in life!! 😉 I sometimes skip it, sometimes Not, depends on the mood!! Its so beautiful!! 😋❤️

[@CuteVampireRina]

My mom and granny are alive (thank God!), but my mom works abroad and she is far away, I miss her. And this song reminds me that I need to show my love to her because one day I will regret about not doing it. Sorry for your granny, she is obviously your guarding angel now.

[@weareyoung8957]

[LYRICS] I took the supermarket flowers from the windowsill I threw the day-old tea from the cup Packed up the photo album Matthew had made Memories of a life that's been loved Took the "Get Well Soon" cards and stuffed animals Poured the old ginger beer down the sink Dad always told me, "Don't you cry when you're down." But, mum, there's a tear every time that I blink Oh, I'm in pieces. It's tearing me up but I know A heart that's broke is a heart that's been loved So, I'll sing Hallelujah, You were an angel in the shape of my mum When I fell down you'd be there holding me up Spread your wings as you go And when God takes you back He'll say, "Hallelujah, you're home." I fluffed the pillows, made the beds, stacked the chairs up Folded your nightgowns neatly in a case John said he'd drive, then put his hand on my cheek And wiped a tear from the side of my face And I hope that I see the world as you did 'cause I know A life with love is a life that's been lived So, I'll sing Hallelujah, You were an angel in the shape of my mum When I fell down you'd be there holding me up Spread your wings as you go, when God takes you back He'll say, "Hallelujah, you're home." Hallelujah, You were an angel in the shape of my mum You got to see the person I have become Spread your wings and I know That when God took you back, he said, "Hallelujah, you're home."

[@valenciaj7665]

So far

[@adk8308]

The fact no guitar was used shows how vulnerable he was allowing himself to be. I just lost my grandmother and randomly found this performance, but damn does it resonate with me. It's a great feeling to cry and laugh at the same time. I, like Ed know our loved ones are in a better place. It doesn't change the hurt we have from them no longer being present, however, we take comfort in knowing we'll see them again and they are watching us above. Hallelujah indeed.

[@bendalgliesh2866]

This came out right after my mom and I lost grandma and it is one of the songs that got us through. I'm sorry for your loss. They are both looking down from heaven at us every day!

[@harut93]

He is not singing, he is telling a story that I do really believe in. Great performance Ed👌🌟

[@kdm453]

[@rev5774]

Ed, your mum is smiling at you now. Her love shines brightly through your beautiful life, your words in your songs and through your gifted voice that gives new life and hope. When you do those things, your mum is not dead. She's alive in you. Well done, good and faithful servant. God bless you, Robert

[@-.a9942]

His grandmother is the one who died. He wrote this song from his mother perspective. Your comment is beautiful though.

[@rev5774]

@@-.a9942 Thank you for your helpful note. I actually knew that fact about his grandmother's death. Interestingly I also learned that Ed calls both his grandmother and his mother "mum". At first I thought it was his mother because of his use of "mum", but later watched another video where he shared it was in fact his grandmother who died which explains why I used his word, "mum". One of Ed's best songs, I think. Blessings.

[@glamourgurlz16]

I’m so happy he sang it at an awards show!! It’s always been one of my favorites from ➗so it makes me so happy that other people that don’t really listen to the album get to hear it!

[@HM94x]

I think this is the first time I've seen him perform on stage without his guitar. He's said he doesn't know what to do with his hands when he doesn't have his guitar, but he did a great job. Fantastic performance!

[@maria.maier99]

Hema Malik That's exactly what I thought !!! And without his quitar...it's like a part of him is missing.

[@robertbrennan4957]

His grandma?? Isn't it about his mom

[@TheAustralianMade]

@@zainaabughoosh2424 His mum is alive. His grandma was the inspiration for the song.

[@katelynnc1405]

Zaina Abughoosh The song was written about his grandma, from his mom’s point of view. So it’s like Ed’s mom perspective, but Ed is singing about it❤️

[@Tischakent]

All of his songs are amazing this artist is a pure genius :)

[@sarahsleppin4293]

He’s awesome my fav artist

[@matthewoconnell114]

How can you not love this guy? Such a beautiful song. I’ve lost both of my parents - and my wife’s parents as well. This is such a gorgeous, touching song. I cry every time I listen to it… and I love it. Thank you, Ed!

[@simonadolea7877]

You can not watch the entire video without a tear in your eye. You just... CAN'T

How can anyone give a thumbs down. Ed Sheeran is the most talented genuine kinded artist of today.

Ed has got a very specific voice. I think people don't give him enough credit for it.

God has blessed my soul and my ears by making an artist like you 😢

[@bellestevens9241]

He is a legend xx

[@WildestWonders]

It’s okay to be nervous, somebody should tell him that he is *Ed Sheeran!* and he doesn’t need to be because he is amazinnnggg 💓

[@nardjesboumaza4176]

Wildest Wonders seriously your comment is dope 🥀😢

[@skaania]

maybe he seemed nervous because the song is so personal and it is about his late granny

[@ashleyrowland3797]

I think it was emotion not nervousness, this is a personal story of his so I have to commend him on being able to deliver it so well without tearing up till the end of the song

[@harrylittle6171]

Its not just that guys. He actually isnt comfortable singing in front of people without a guitar. He has said it before.

[@allisonk7595]

He’s not nervous it’s just that he’s trying to not tear up bc this is a very personal

[@alezcraftytoys]

My daddy died the 20th of august by covid 19, the last time I saw him was last year and he was able to at list meet my boyfriend, didn't know it would be the last time I would've felt his warm hug and love. Nobody deserves to die without there family near... "You where an angle in the shape of my father when I fell down you'd be there holding me up Spreading your wings as you go and when God taked you back we'll say Hallelijah You're home" - Ed Sheeran

Ed Sheeran is really talented but if you know Beethoven you would know Beethoven is on a whole different level 😂 I'm sorry but pop music just cannot compare to classical music
