In two unexpected moves, Ed Sheeran stars (rather than making a cameo) as a ballroom dancer in the music video for “Thinking Out Loud.” The song is the third single from Ed’s second album, X, following “Sing,” produced by Pharrell, and “Don’t”. X became Ed’s first number one album in the United States, selling 210,00 copies. Ed Sheeran tweeted to his nearly 11 million followers yesterday, “I’ve learned to dance” before sharing the new video.

Check out Ed’s romantic side in the video below.

Ed Sheeran makes a brief cameo in his latest video for “Don’t.” The video features a young male dancer, transitioning-or rather, break dancing, his way up in the world; a twist on the rags to riches story. While the song is about one of Ed’s ex, who cheated on him with a friend- while in the same hotel, the music video is much more happy. The video seems to mirror Ed’s own life (perhaps without the dancing) as he rose to stardom. Check out the video below.

Ed Sheeran’s sophomore release “X” is fast approaching (June 23rd), and he just released a new song to keep us in anticipation. Not long after premiering “Don’t” on SNL, Ed posted a video of an acoustic version of “One.” The song will be the first on the upcoming album, which was revealed via an Instagram photo early in April.
