[@elizabethlovelock9613]

That’s such a wonderful gesture, a real star. It’s lovely to see an A lister giving back.

[@alicesmith2866]

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

[@divekatdreaming]

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

[@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.

[@Dsturm324]

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

[@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.

[@RubenTorres-lz8rs]

He Is amazing, , simple and honest person..😊

[@animegurl39]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@jesserocha5931]

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

[@ekuche8335]

Why is this guy so freaking cool!

[@0o9ijnbhytgr]

[@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!

[@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!

How can anyone not like this guy. He's an amazing human being and of course a very talented guy. And he sounds great live with no auto tune.

[@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.

[@Watchdog1953]

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

[@loriholsclaw6195]

Such pure talent. The students were in awe.❤

[@SquirrelTheater]

Pretty cool of him to do that.

[@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.

[@rondelleppley318]

This is so awesome, this is Perfect! He's got a beautiful heart!

[@Yanto2013]

Fair Do's he uses his fame and fortune etc to help others AND Make A Difference for the Better.👏👏👏

[@dickyt1318]

I just listen to the lyric's and I am in awe of the talent that discovered them and set them to music, truely a God given gift.

[@gavinsadventuresinterests.]

I have heard many people say that Ed Sheeran is a genuinely nice guy. And this just proves it. Free guitars & concert tickets to see him live on stage, i would be very happy with that. He is also one of my fellow British Citizens from West Yorkshire, England. I'm from Birmingham, England. He is also a very talented musician as well. I like Ed Sheeran. One of my favourite songs he recorded is called Shivers & Overpass Graffiti.

[@davidhouse5073]

Way to go Ed! A truly kind soul and an inspiration! Obviously you have some idea of how much your visit meant to these kids, but I assure you your impact was much bigger than you realize. Bravo to an All Star of the human race!

Ed Sheeran is one stand up individual! And.. one hell of a concert at SoFi!!!

[@christinascaduto5943]

This is fantastic. One of my favorite artists and person. Would love to know which school he visited as I'm a teacher in South Florida and know what these kids are struggling with. This visit had to be a major boost in moral. Thanks Ed Sheeran!
