POP SONG REVIEW: "Thinking Out Loud" by Ed Sheeran

[@OddMike]

Can I just say how boring the music video is? The woman is obviously a good dancer but she's doing all the work and Ed is just kind of awkwardly shambling around and holding her up a few times. Snore.

[@DarthYodaJammin]

To be fair, a good portion of ballroom dancing involves women doing the work. And as a ballerina I pretty much had to do all the cool stuff in the choreography and my partner maybe supported me and lifted me a few times, even though I could have kept my balance and jumped high enough to execute the steps just fine. That's kind of how partner dancing works. Ed Sheeran maybe stands out with it in the music video because what she's doing is just that nice.

[@elijahfordsidioticvarietys8770]

[@thac0twenty377]

my wife and I related because we knew each other years but didn't actually get together until we'd know each other 3 or 4 years. it was cute

[@rashotcake6945]

I think the intention behind the line is the implication that many people get so caught up in a fantastical, idea of love that they don’t even notice what’s right in front of them and if they did, they’d actually find love. i don’t think it’s necessarily a bad line but i do feel like Ed Sheehan doesn’t do enough with it that it ends up being throwaway. A better lyricist could make it more impactful rather than just some platitude

[@betteronbrunettes]

That whole "will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?" line pretty much ruins the song for me. Just sounds gross.

[@theMoporter]

The music video seems completely backwards to me. Not the concept of him dancing with a woman, the idea of him dancing with a professional dancer with a completely toned body and perfect hair and grace. How am I, the normal young woman, supposed to self-insert as a tanned nigh-athlete?

[@orlock20]

[@weirdaljedifan2]

I swear, the first time I heard that lyric, I thought he said "seventeen".

[@lilithwy]

It was a way to rhyme with "evergreen" and a similar sentiment was expressed by The Beatles "When I'm 64." The number is an age that the singer feels is a full lifetime away.

[@AJUniverse]

I like the idea behind the song, of growing old together, but the song itself is just vacuous and un-engaging.

[@s.g.7572]

Besides, Dance Me to the End of Love by Leonard Cohen said the same thing in an infinitely more beautiful way.

[@blablablair1]

"Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love" instantly ruins the song for me. It's such a gross line and I have no idea why a guy asking a girl if she'd still remember what his semen tastes like in 50 years would be considered romantic.

[@musiclover_kb4913]

Um are u sure he was talking about his semen? I think the "taste of my love" is supposed to be a metaphor for "will you still feel passion and chemistry when we kiss 50 years later"?

[@blablablair1]

Even if Ed meant it to be romantic, it's an easy interpretation to make. Idk it just a gross sounding line.

Its average, maybe mundane seeming stuff, but the reason they want to experience it is because they want to experience it with the person they love and know that they are taken care of and happy. It's just such an adorable and sweet sentiment. Not to mention it's just such a good way to end probably my favorite Adam Sandler movie.

Delilah wrote about it she said she was puzzled by the song, because she was already with the guy who she ended up marrying and the song was a love song. Tom didn't try to make it creepy when she asked what the song meant he just said he wanted to write her a beautiful song.

For the film I think it should've felt more like a Medieval or Renaissance ballad. Also, it makes me a little annoyed that Ed Sheeran got to make a 6 minute song for the film series, but no soundtrack has any longer version of the "Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold" song sung by Richard Armitage and co.

[@mpmqbi]

He was talking about this song in particular.

[@itspricila]

Agree! Ed is so much better

[@nejdalej]

If " and the crowds don't remember my name" was replaced with "and I can't remember our/my/your name" that might have served the overall theme of the song better.

[@rosabscura]

That shrek line hurt my soul

[@SJisReading]

Your Song is my favorite love song ever, and it always makes me emotional. Hey There Delilah makes me sad, because it feels so much like he's already lost her

[@kimifw58]

I like "Hey There, Delilah" too. Even back in high school, I knew it was a little corny, but I really liked it. It's sweet and genuine, unlike this song which is outright pretentious.

[@janerecluse4344]

Every time I hear this I think about how amazing that dancer is and get really really mad at the waste of talent.

[@name-fv4du]

Jane Recluse i mean getting a deal like this must be great for a dancer, they could be strugling to find an underpaid job to do the thing they love while delivering on a fast food restaurant or something

[@janerecluse4344]

Any chance for a dancer to get paid is a good thing, but I can appreciate that and still shake my head at the product.

[@name-fv4du]

Jane Recluse yeah i get what you're saying

[@ivanchernov3041]

Sheeran with an electric guitar? THE WORLD IS ENDING

[@seraphiccandy21]

some people have a thing for red heads. Just sayin

[@brynnplant]

So that makes... the song... good?

[@seraphiccandy21]

writerofbaddreams No, Todd just makes it out that Ed is unattractive which he isnt

[@mj4ever1332]

Ginger power 🤘🏻

[@A_Dopamine_Molecule]

+seraphiccandy21 I have yet to meet one of those people ;_;

[@seraphiccandy21]

Gene Glagolev haha, one of my best friends loooves gingers...

[@maisumcriticonainternet4351]

I LOVE that he started playing Wonderwall without realizing it was still recording LOL! Or maybe he didn't, it was a joke... huh... Hey Todd, I'm on a quest to watch every single one of your videos. Watching a few every day and commenting on the last one I watched.

Gingers are people too, Todd. A much better wedding song would be Stan Rogers' "45 Years". It highlights those long-term love/ growing old ideas "Thinking Out Loud" lacks.

[@afterdinnercreations936]

I hate the line "People fall in love in mysterious ways." Mysterious ways? Why not "People fall in love in so many ways"

[@zaccds]

This song is horribly boring and slow but it's like speed metal levels of excitement and energy compared to his song "Photograph" A song so bland and boring it's like he was trying to out Nickelback Nickelback

[@alluneedislessthan3]

I'm a huge Ed sheeran fan and I still don't understand why "Photograph" was made into a single. It was always one of the the songs on the album I skipped because it's so bland and forgettable. He has much better material in my opinion.

[@mikerivera373]

Zac _ I actually really like Photograph. I really love the simplicity of it. Keeping a picture during a long distance relationship to remember all the memories and love you have for someone. And maybe it's that I'm still only 18, but I've never really heard of any songs using that idea. Idk, I think it's an incredibly sweet song. And the slowness is part of what helps you realize how simple, yet true, it is.

[@strawberryfields9762]

Out crap the crap?😂

[@SoleMan117]

Do people really not like Wonderful tonight? Am I alone in this?

[@roguishpaladin]

I'm on board with it. It was the slow dance song of my teenage years.

[@kellycoyne5991]

Please tell me I'm not the only one who paused the video and went to "Hey There Delilah" and is now addicted to it again? Like damn I forgot how much I loved it. ` ` ` ` ` ` Hey there Delilah What's it like in New York city?

[@madelinevlogs5898]

Same. At my school's end of year celebration a couple weeks ago, they were mostly playing bad pop songs and then they started playing "Hey There Delilah". Everyone was freaking out because we remembered how much we liked that song.

[@ffjreviews9029]

Dude Shrek is the most legendary creation in the entire universe.

[@kobalt_ren01]

I never expected to find DragonForce in a video from Todd. Or Mister Ed.

[@JackedThor-so]

We had to sing this stupid song in choir freshman year. The whole producti[n was such a fiasco I get PTSD whenever I think back to this song!

[@gsdfan4267]

john mayer was a huge inspiration for ed.

[@gartgart4757]

I like Juno. I know it’s overwritten. Don’t care still love it.

[@McBanditHope]

At least the girl in the video is pretty hot. I mean, hot damn....

[@marklafrancis253]

+McBandit Hope I think her dancing exudes happy energy, which is generally attractive.

[@MunkyMajic]

+McBandit Hope brittany cherry.. yup yup

[@twcoursolle]

The casting guy did a bang up job. emphasis on the "bang".

[@3liony]

Call the police and the fireman.

[@MariaJulia-od8jv]

Me encanta como les da con un caño a mis canciones preferidas. Es raro, Ed es en mi opinión uno de los mejores artistas de la década y el le está dando con todo, pero me gusta verlo. Pd: también amo Hey There Delilah!

[@superneko99]

Whenever I hear this song all i can think about is toes....

[@ericdalesandry7633]

Love that Dragonforce reference!
