Finally we have some new music from Ed Sheeran, and he’s managed to bless us with not one, but TWO new songs!

Take a listen to ‘Castle on the Hill’ above and ‘Shape of You’ in the video below!

Ed took to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat to tease the songs before releasing them around midnight on Friday morning.

Ed also revealed that his new project would follow a similar math pattern as his other albums and be called, ‘Divide’; his 2011 project was called ‘+’ or ‘plus’ and ‘x’ or ‘multiply’ was released in 2014.

Ed teased his third album (‘Divide’) back in December 2015, while on the same day revealing that he was taking some time away to travel the world.

Well, now he’s back and if ‘Castle on the Hill’ and ‘Shape of You’ are any indication of what’s to come, Divide may be his best work yet!
