One wrote, “His replies yall WHY AM I JUST LEARNING THAT HE’S FUNNY.”
“Es Sheeran making fun of his own songs is the best thing ever HAHAHAHAHA,” said another.
The swoon-worthy ballad, released in 2014, rewarded Ed with his first two Grammys.
“I remember thinking I would never write a song as good as A Team, external,” he told BBC in 2017. “And then Thinking Out Loud came, and I was like, ‘Oh, OK, well maybe it’s not impossible.’”

The song was co-written by folk singer Amy Wadge.
“If I had another song as big as that, I wanted it to just say my name on the credits,” he said at the time.
He also spoke about how he realized that Thinking Out Loud would not be the “peak” of his career, and he called his other hit track, Perfect, a better song.
“So I did a lot of solo writing, and that was one of the things that came out of it,” he said about Perfect.
