Yes x thanks

[@FunkyFresh777-pw8is]

Ed is a True Gentleman, kind and humble. Very rare these days.

[@nettlewarrior8627]

Few standout moments. The young man getting his book signed, the percussionist with tears rolling down his face and lastly, that young lady's beautiful voice.

[@gtrpkr2487]

I’m started to like this guy more and more. Giving back carries more weight than people realize. He does this sort of thing a lot.

[@TonyLovell]

I agree. I hardly know the music, but this man has humility and shares his gift readily. He is an uplifting, talented schlub.

[@jesserocha5931]

That's a well-disciplined band for not skipping a beat when he walks in!

[@alicesmith2866]

Brought tears to my eyes. Ed Sheeran is so humble and made these young people day.

[@mickeyh53]

I’m in my seventies..& I think this young man is a wonderful talent & blessed with a huge heart..

[@xoxo31040xoxo]

Saw him at MetLife Stadium which was filled with people of all ages, all races, and all backgrounds. His talent and generous heart never know the limits. He is like a young boy with overflowing love for music and people. Like the song goes, I see an angel in Ed Sheeran. ❤

[@lucassstache8069]

I was there last Sunday! And you’re absolutely right, phenomenal how he brings everyone together with his music!

[@xoxo31040xoxo]

@@lucassstache8069 I was there on Sunday also!

[@divekatdreaming]

Ed Sheeran is an amazing human.... but also, that girl got to DUET with Ed Sheeran and it sounded amazing!!!

[@Dsturm324]

Ed Sheeran is a class act. He always amazes me with the charitable things he does.

[@Pand3Js]

The girl singing Photograph at the end of the video is really good!

[@janespriggs3274]

Yes! That’s what I wanted to say. A unique voice and a duet with Ed!

[@animegurl39]

Ed Sheeran is literally the best human being there is, I love how he started with Perfect, that's my absolute favorite song 😊😊

[@andrewvillanueva3722]

Ed sheeran is such a awesome guy. Taking time out to see a high school band and playing his songs to them. He speaks to him as a human being and down to earth he is.

[@hdskl2150]

This is so random and cool! I pray every musician feels the value in this gesture. It is such a blessing to encourage students.

[@Violet316]

Taylor Swift has rubbed off on him, she did something similar at a music center and also donated guitars, a few years ago.

[@libbyworkman3459]

He was showing those students one kindness after another. I have become a huge fan of his just watching this one video. I know he went on the tour with Taylor Swift to Japan, and his voice blended with her beautifully.

[@mandycouperco2422]

Lovely surprise for these students. You can understand why Ed is popular. He's appreciative of what he has achieved and is giving back. Lovely guy.

[@sharonsimpson6363]

What a cool young man. Kindness and sharing his talents is beautiful

[@kobusdutoitbosman6240]

Great Guy super gesture and lots of good memories

[@retrocrosley]

So awesome Ed Sheeran gives back like this!

[@peterbaldwin1499]

It costs nothing but a little of his time to enhance so many kids day. I wish more 'Stars' would do this. Its takes nothing but a few minutes or even seconds. But they will give so much

[@DerekWilliamsMusic]

What a lovely gesture from Ed Sheeran, and what a great music department at that school.

[@mucows]

So fabulous to see someone with so much giving back to those who truly need it. God bless you Ed Sheeran you are awesome

[@drumteacher43]

This is what all pop/rock stars should be doing. Class act and genuine good human being!

Well done, Ed. Great thing to do to encourage these young people.

[@catch22again]

I've seen loads of footage of him doing such kind things to aspiring musicians ,he,s a lovely young man.......oh and a brilliant musician. I can only ever remember having one music lesson at school and never learnt to play an instrument. I'm now well in my 60,s and have taught myself to play the ukulele and by all accounts I'm pretty good. You are never too old to learn something new.

[@loriholsclaw6195]

Such pure talent. The students were in awe.❤
