Who is here in 2024✝️
couldn't be me
@@Aethel_BeornYes, I am still in 2014 with this song😌
Hi there!
I sing this to my cat and she gets super affectionate... It's her favorite song 😻
Here of course ❤️🥹
This and Supermarket Flowers are the saddest and most beautiful songs Ed has ever written 🙌
'Afire Love' is about William Sheeran. Ed's song 'Nancy Mulligan' is about Ed's Irish paternal grandparents, Nancy and William Sheeran. Nancy is now 93 yrs old. Supermarket Flowers is about Ed's maternal grandmother, Shirley.
U r totally right, ED IS THE BEST!! ;)
I feel like "Save Myself" can be up there too
Autumn Leaves too
I totally agree this is my favorite song of his, it was my favorite song before
This is one of the most underrated songs maybe. Sooo underrated.
preach
72 Million clicks... so underrated
@@sevcon2 there still good people on these planet
When you don't know what underrated songs are so you call anything underrated:
one of his best songs
Listening in 2024 & it's still perfect.
Timeless classic.
There's an Ed Sheeran song for every emotion you're feeling.
this is a perfect description of all Ed Sheeran songs
true
One of my teachers died suddenly two years ago around Christmas time from cancer, and I remember everyone in the school was crying and mourning (she was important to almost everyone) but I was the only one not to cry, not being one to cry in public or around people. It was only on Christmas Eve and listening to this song, at the part when the violin comes on, that I finally broke down and cried about it. Shows how powerful music can be.
I'm sorry, that's awful =(
Sorry man
So sorry
Sorry to hear that, pretty sure that she was an amazing person
Rumble Delta
Its February 2022, let's see how many legends are listening to this incredible song🧡
I miss his old music style :(
I have arrived.
This song has been out for 7 years and this is the first time I've heard it or of it.. I love Ed Sheeran and his music so you would think I know this song 🤌
x
Here✌️✌️♥️♥️♥️😩
Finally had the courage to listen to this again because this reminds me of grandpa. To those who lost their loved ones, i hope we remember them not with tears in our eyes but with a smile.
I feel like I’m at the place now 6 years later when I remember with a smile. But whenever I hear this song it makes me cry without fail.
The same 🙏 cry each time listening it💔
R.I.P. forever. Take care and God bless!
Same for me, and I listened to it for my grandmother too , it always makes me cry but it’s so beautiful at the same time ❤️🙏🏼
I still ball my eye out every time. It ever gets old it’s something you will never get over
Let's be honest here, anything Ed makes is just golden. I've never heard a song by him that I disliked, seriously, it's just magic.
He's amazing
***** if he re-recorded it I bet it would be pretty good, his voice was the let down there and that was down to his age
Me too i think that addicted is good for old he was when he wrote and recorded it
same here bro, his influence is huge on me. I love his style so so much. Maybe Ed is a kinda drug, im addicted to it.
I agree completely! x
Without any reason .. with your songs you are making us cry.. !! you are the best !! 😢😢
+Lucas Koball I DON'T HAVE GF.. STILL I FEEL THAT HAD A GF WHILE LISTENING TO HIS SONGS .. HE IS DEMIGOD 😊
always ending up crying when I hear ed sheeran songs😯
+Lucas Koball let's cry together
So long .. still it has the same feel when i hear 1st time ..!
LunaLight okay I'll join the squad😢💔
My grandfather died of dementia today. This song will always remind me of him.
aww that's so sad. Rest in Peace your grandpa
i lost mine about five years ago, we were close. it doesn't hurt any less, but there's peace now for me and my family. we've learned to go on, and even though we're all grown and moved out of our houses we still talk and just spend time remembering him. i'm not religious, but i feel that we never really lose anyone. we have to hold onto the love they gave us in their lives and cling to it, and as long as somebody carries the memory or the impact of that love, they aren't gone. my heart hurts for you, but i hope you feel his love, and i hope you can give that love to others. it's frightening and there's nothing like this feeling you're feeling right now in all the world, but i just know there's more to love. it doesn't leave when we leave. we live on and we remember, and we love others and they remember. i hope you feel my love too, and i hope you feel held by those around you right now.
Sorry for your loss...
Rest In Peace for your grandfather
Stay safe and he is in Heaven!
Possibly the best song Ed Sheeran has ever written. This is truly touching in how it turns despair and bewilderment into hope, without ever dismissing the uncertainty and dread its narrator can never quite shake.
Idk I think it's on par with supermarket flowers. I sing that song on the street as a memorial to my adoptive mom who died in 2018
I agree...this is the best song Ed Sheeran has ever written.. I don't know whether he'll ever top this
@@henrywayne5724 My money’s on “no”. I don’t think Ed Sheeran has another 10, or even another 9, in him, and he’s become less interesting relative to his fellow popstars as of late (mostly because they’ve become so much more interesting than they used to be), but he remains a fundamentally good artist who makes the occasional gem, and also the occasional dud.
I always read some sarcastic subtext à la “You Will Be Found” from Dear Evan Hansen into the chorus, where it’s clear that all these pretty words aren’t really helping the narrator like they’re helping everyone around him, and it really elevates the song.
@@reinhardtwilhelm5415 I am cautiously optimistic about his forthcoming album because seems like we'll be returning to the good old days of his poetic lyricism. But this song though...it's haunting, optimistic, and painful all at the same time. I'm yet to see him compose something that could rival this perhaps in his forthcoming album. I remain hopeful.
I feel like Ed Sheeran's songs are going to be what all the ladies will be wishing their lovers would sing to them.
Pretty much 😅
haha, I do to my girlfriend all the time tbh 😂
Dank_Bucket That is so sweet.
+Inayah Cee you're dame right about that
+Inayah Cee I KNOW RIGHT! And I love it
Compare this to SING and you really get a sense of how much depth this guy has. Ed can do it all..
Indeed my friend!.. i agree 100%
I love that he keeps his loved ones' memories alive through his music
Still listening to in 2024!brings back so many memories
My grandma has Alzheimer's, and is currently in the ER with chest pains and a slight concussion, and I thought of this song when I found out she is is the ER. She doesn't know who I am anymore but she still says I love you, and it's just really hard seeing her the way she is.
in*
I'm really really sorry about your mum
music is beautiful, it heals everything!! keep listing to it especially if you feel a release from it :)
I'm sorry about your grandma. My great uncle passed from Alzheimer complications. I'm sure your company is a great comfort to her and she does love you.
k
Yea, my grandma too. She can't speak to others, don't react to their sords. But if I speak she reacts and speaks, say I love U and she always start to sing a melody...
Damn, i'm a guy and i'm not use to listen to music like this, and yet i love this guy's music now, it's like i've been carrying so much darkness these last years.....i need a break, i need music like this, you are what you "consume", that not only applies to food but music as well.
same, i feel you haha
ohhh yes feel you (but I'm a girl)😂
Same like his music takes you somewhere else
he awesome
he awesome
It's 2021 and I'm still crying everytime I listen to this song
It's a beautiful song I hope my reply doesn't ruin your day
Yay! Im not alone
We are 3 my friend.........
It's 2022, I still feel some kinda hurt listening to this... Timeless song
9 June 2022
2 years today, I lost my dad to Alzheimer’s. I can’t get through this song without sobbing, but yet it’s so comforting at the same time. Thank you Ed 🥺💔
My dad died 2 days ago and afire love is getting me through the grief, thanks ed
Rip❤️
Rip❤️❤️❤️
stay strong, you're not alone.
DONT ED SHEERAN
Sorry to here that 😰
To the people saying 'I'm disappointed' this song is about his grandfather passing away. Yes, his style has changed, but he's still ed... have some understanding, he made this song for his grandfather, not you. You listen to it, you ether like it or you don't. But this song was for him. Not us. He just shared it with us... love you ed!
It's not even about it being about his grandfather. I love that. But it's not the original music style everyone loved by him. I would love this song if he took the band out, did it himself, and used an acoustic.
Well put, he writes these for him, we should feel honored
"for him" , "should feel honored". Nothing against him, but he makes money off these. A lot of money. So saying they are "for him" and hes just sharing these with us just cause is not accurate. And I really hope he sticks to his original style in the future. :/ I just prefer the other music. I want to be able to say I love every new album more than the last that comes out. It shouldn't be the other way around.
Look, yeah okay, he makes money of these songs. But he never had to publish this song. The last album was what two years ago maybe? In two years it gives him time to change up his style. And if you liked his old songs better, than don't listen to his new ones if your gonna be stupid about it. In his old songs he had bands playing too, this is probably one of the sweetest song I've ever heard. But its people like you who discourage him to try new styles. So why don't you shut the hell up and enjoy his music, Jesus!
2024 LIKE BUTTON ❤
Anyone still listening 2020? Quarantine’s got me exploring his albums. This song is... yeah. Emotional.
I discovered the song this quarantine too. And now I'm just crying like a baby.
Yes
Mrs. Gacha Bear I’m listening right now!
heydoo!
Yeper
My Grandpa died last year in October... One of the hardest times of my life. He had Alzheimers disease like this song describes. He didn't remember who I was but acted like he did when he saw me. He was a smoker but was hit so bad with the disease he forgot that he smoked. When he passed away he left peacefully which left us all in peace to know he didn't suffer. When I came across this song it hit me pretty hard. Thanks Ed.
God bless you. Stay strong ❤
God bless you and R.I.P
may your grandpa rest in piece
This song reeeally needs an official video 🙏
ikr
all his songs need an official video tbh
Ayesha Chandra your right it does!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
My grandpa died from corona just a few hours ago. I've always found this song very emotional but when a loved one dies, this song hits different. I was here when my grandma died last year. Now I'm here again..
I'm sorry about that :( I lost my fiancé to corona in December as well 😔
I cry whenever I hear this song. It makes me remember my partner who passed away in 2014. I have never met a man like him before nor since. He was from Manhattan, New York; I grew up on a farm in Iowa. Yet with our polar opposite backgrounds, we clicked so well. We seemed to have so much in common. He is one of the very few people who really understood me. He never judged me. He accepted me the way I am. I will love you until the day I die. I miss you so much.
it is impossible to hate ed sheeran
True!
True
trueeee👌👌👌
Ouhhh I'm sorry... My mom hates him more than literally everything Else... Well, she says so🤷🏽♀️
@@murieljacop2168 How? Just how? What is not to love about this ginger?
Well I'm in love with this song.
I was 11 when I first heard this song. I didn't know the name of the song until I searched for it a year later, so I've loved it since I was 12. This is 2024 and I'm turning 21 in a few weeks. Crazy to think that I've had the same favorite song for almost 10 years but truly this is a master piece.❤🔥👌🇿🇲
[Lyric]
Things were all good yesterday
And then the devil took your memory
And if you fell to your death today
I hope that heaven is your resting place
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
But then that could've been the medicine
And now you're lying in the bed again
Either way, I'll cry with the rest of them
And my father told me, "Son
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
And you're not the only one"
Although my grandma used to say
That he used to sing
Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night
And we'll lie inside for a little while here, oh
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
And we're wrapped in light and life and love
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
For they're designed to be together, oh
With your body next to mine, our hearts will beat as one
And we're set alight, we're afire love
Love, love
And things were all good yesterday
But then the devil took your breath away
And now we're left here in the pain
Black suit, black tie, standing in the rain
And now my family is one again
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
Came to my mind, I should paint it with a pen
Six years old, I remember when
My father told me, "Son
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
And you're not the only one"
Although my grandma used to say
That he used to sing
Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night
And we'll lie inside for a little while here, oh
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
And we're wrapped in light and life and love
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
For they're designed to be together, oh
With your body next to mine, our hearts will beat as one
And we're set alight, we're afire love
Love, love
See the love, the love, the love, the love
See the love, the love, the love, the love
See the love, the love, the love, the love
And my father and all of my family
Rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
And my mother and all of my family
Rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
And my brother and all of my family
Rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
(And all my brothers and my sisters, yeah, ah)
And my father and all of my family
Rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
To the love, the love, the love, the love
To the love, the love, the love, the love
To the love, the love, the love, the love
better to have loved and lost than never be loved before .
TRUE AF
So damnful true
Terry Tan damn that's confusing but good message 😂
Need a official music video for this...
+Hazeem Ul Hussain YES
what so we can cry even more.... :c
+PootiRootiGotUrTags Haha so true.
+PootiRootiGotUrTags Haha so true.
+PootiRootiGotUrTags Haha so true.
I just lost my grandfather today after a 10 year battle on and off with cancer. I fully feel this song now. Thank you Ed.
I lost mine too 2 years ago on christmas :(
Here I am in 2024 still relishing this song. A timeless masterpiece.
The black community will catch on soon. Been listening since 2011.
One of the rare artists whose songs still have a point.
I strongly agree!
I agree as well!
Yes
Agreed..
Definitely
My grandpa is on his deathbed right now. He is such and important person in my life, he's literally my hero. He's so strong and he always calls to wonder if I'm okay even if he's the one I should ask... When I found this song and realised it was by Ed I wasn't surprised I could relate to it so much. I found a small comfort in this song... I'm not ready to go to a funeral... I really don't want to.. He's been so much closer to me since grandma died too. I love you grandpa! Ed is cheering me up, don't worry. I love you so much.
awh :'( ❤
I feel sorry
+Emilia Berglund life is a circle i have faith you will see him again in one form or anthother hope you can find peace in the meantime.
+Emilia Berglund I don't pay my internet to be sad.. WHY YOU DO THIS :(((
+Emilia Berglund Pun intended ^
My husband passed away last month from a massive heart attack. It was very sudden and unexpected. "Our song" was Afire Love. We're older people and are grandparents. I recently got a tattoo on my arm that says In Light In Life In love. Under that is my husband's heartbeat right before he passed away. The nurse's in the ICU department printed out my husband's last heartbeat before he flatlined. Under his heartbeat, it says To the love, We love, To love, We love. I'm thankful and grateful for that song Ed Sheeran 💕 thank you.
Working as a CNA and caring for dementia patients this song speaks to me on a whole new level. 🥺💚
How has this not hit number one yet? This is beautiful, probably one of my favorite songs now. The music video I can only imagine would be emotional. I think he should make one. Who's with me?
brown bottles What do you mean by released? Isn't already released since we can listen it?? XD
brown bottles Yes better understanding now :) thank you! That would be awesome this if this became his next single tho! lol
Lenexa Cole Beautiful how are you
My grandma died of this unreal disease. It took me a long time to accept it, and I still have trouble thinking about her. This song helps me get those feelings out. Rip grandma
2022 anyone? I Still gets lost in the lines 🥺
When I was young, I met a girl.. Lovely, friendly, polite, and cool as well, I appreciate that.. That was around my 15 y/o, at school, that was the best feeling of my life. We had a connection that only God could exactly explain what happened in our hearts. We broke up ‘cuz I acted immaturely and I regret that. I wish we were together ‘cuz she was the only person, I feel like I truly loved deeper. I acted immaturely and my pride spoke loud. We broke up, the love of my life.. Yeahh, we are not dating anymore. But even if she's not dating me, I hope she finds someone who makes her happy. I felt what it truly means to love someone. Whenever I hear this song, reminds me about us. We used to text everyday, for hours and hours, she knew me so well. I used to be shy. Sometimes, we used to go back home. I was completely in love with that girl... This Song is a special piece reminds me the good times we had togheter.
OMG JUST IMAGINE HIM PERFORMING THIS DURING HIS CONCERTS....
It's gonna be one tearful ride.
Going to see him this Friday. So excited!!!!!!! Eeeeek!!!!!
I wish I was going to his concert, but I didn't get a ticket! And it sucks even more that I actually had a second chance, since they moved the place to a bigger place! :(
Can't wait...at least I can still count on him to sound good live instead of like something I'd make in GarageBand! :D
NancyLiin it's alright. there'll always be next time. Ed is a performer at heart, so he will always have great shows to go to (god willing). You will get your chance!
Has ed sheeran ever made a bad song? Just wow!!!!!
Never has and never will.
Ever heard Addicted? Yeah that one was pretty bad. Good thing he kept working at it though x
Cecil Gleim There is a difference between a bad song and bad vocals lmao. Lycris = alright Vocals = Fucking kill me
3soolaful I WAS THINK THE SAME THING... KKKKKKK
+3soolaful His song 'Sing' is the most horrible one tbh..
Ed is hands down the best songwriter ever 🙌🏼😭♥️
Now we know this song features samples from remembering Jenny from Buffy season 2. Love this guy even more now
Ed sheeran makes my day, again.
"Afire Love" was written about Sheeran's grandfather "two weeks before he passed away." He had suffered with Alzheimer's disease for twenty years, and Sheeran has been thinking "What if [he passed away]? And then he did." Sheeran finished writing the song at his funeral
where did you get that information from? :)
^^^^^
theConnieAurora en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_(Ed_Sheeran_album) :)
akatheJellyfish Thank you!! ^_^
theConnieAurora all good :)
I never understood what the song really meant until my grandma was recently diagnose with Alzheimer's disease. Its not her fault she doesn't know who am I..
:-( Be strong !
I’m sorry. I can totally relate...
So sorry...me too😟
my mom too...
sadly lost both my grandparents from it. the words have so much meaning to me
Used to listen to this song/album when I visited my Grandma in the hospital,
It’s been nearly 4 years since her passing and I always think of her whenever I listen to this album, thank you for the bittersweet memories Ed💞
Found this song yesterday when I clicked on the wrong playlist and now its my fav song lol
Damn straight bruh
Why wouldn't it be???? Yah manh
hahahahah
meant to be
You seem to be advertising that a lot. Sure.
When my dear grandfather passed away last February, Ed's song "Autumn Leaves" really helped me through this terrible time of loss... I love the authenticity of Ed's music... it is just what I need.
R.i.P Grandpa, in my heart forever...
Same here that song really got me through my grandpas death 💜
I would listen to Autumn Leaves all the time when my grandma passed away.. Great song. Such beautiful lyrics
Autumn Leaves and Where We Land are my favorites, gorgeous songs.
Ed Sheeran's songs from previous decades were more dope than today's.
Finding out that Buffy the Vampire Slayer inspired this song just made this 10x better, and 100x sadder. The piano song in the background is a sample of the song "Remembering Jenny" from the episode "Passion". OUCH, MY HEART
A bit late to the thread, but based on Christophe Beck's masterpiece, that you can hear at czcams.com/video/dl7yV_8ok7I/video.html
it's beautiful i cried. Never stop singing!!
This sing is so beautiful. My grandfather passed away from Alzheimer's a few years ago too. It was horrible seeing him like that, but whenever I think of him I remember the great man he was and I see him as the man I saw when I was a little kid, not the man with Alzheimer's. It's such a horrible disease :( but the song is absolutely amazing!
💝
if you dont mind me asking what is alzheimers disease sorry for your loss x
Ya my great grandmother passed from it too
My grandfather has Parkinson. It's not the same but it's so sad to see him like this. And the worst is that we all are so afraid of loosing him. He's such a great person.
so did my granddad it completely changed him
A great song, with soft vibes ,singing about the purpose of grandfather in our light life, God bless Ed Sheeran.
Anyone here after that tiktok vid?
"No no no, it's not a song. Why wudch... Why would you assume..."
"Axel, I'm an Ed Sheeeran fan..."
Meeee
HAHAHAHAHAHHAA
Me HAHAHAHA
yooo same HAHAHAHHAA
HAHAHAHHAHAHA ginagawa naten dito tanginang axel yan HAHAHAHAHA
Everytime I hear this song I remember my grandmother teling me "it doesn't matter if I don't know your name or I don't remember who you are, always keep in mind that I love you very much and that I'll always be with you" (she's in the last stage of Alzheimer now)
Edit from 2020: I wrote this right before she passed away, it still reminds me of her 💖
girl you make me cry... this is what she said to me before she died few years back and i havent done anything for her or making her proud of me.
+Toni Liem you probably make her proud wherever she is just because you exist... but if you feel like you need to do something for her, pick something you like to do, put your best effort on it and dedicate it to her memory... at least that's what I'm doing atm
"Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
For they're designed to be together"
I love it when people just quote amazing lines from a song on its video
Isn't that a bit weird since he's talking about is grandfather?
A few lines before, he says "my grandma used to say, he used to sing", implying that his grandpa is singing that to his grandma, I think
then why "he"? if its his grandma singing?
In my above comment, I wrote "his grandpa is singing", so I think it's his grandpa singing, and his grandma saying that he sung that.
It's 2023 but this song is still a masterpiece ❤
I have no idea how it's possible but there is no song written by Ed wchich i don like. He's sooo gifted and his voice is amazingg. There is no word to describe how talented he is.
which*
True story during school: So, I get to my homeroom, the morning after hearing this song after I bought Ed's album, "x". This song was stuck in my head, and I was crying inside a bit because I knew what the song was about (I might of teared up a bit, I don't know.). I wrote this on my desk: "Things were all good yesterday, until the devil took your memory~". My homeroom class is also my LA class/last period, and I sit in the same seat as I do in homeroom. So, when it's LA, people wrote the whole song down, and it was awesome that everyone dotted the "i"s with hearts. I started tearing up while we were reading, but I was just so happy everyone who sat there knew the lyrics. The last person wrote these words: "Ed, I know you will never read this, but I just have to write it. Dear Ed; You are the most amazing song writer ever. Every time I listen to your songs, they make me happy. And I also just have to say this: In your song, "Thinking Out Loud" you mention the crowds not remembering your name, and that the girl will always love you the same. I don't know if I count as a crowd, but I will always remember your name. From, Bryanna." The person who wrote that, was me. I just had to. The next day, the janitors cleaned it off the desk, but I remembered it perfectly. That made me want to type this here. Also, Ed, I'm really sorry about your grandfather.. Just remember; Your true fans & I will always be here for you~
~.::Wolfcraft877::.~ this is amazing! no one in my school understands why i love his music so much, im glad the people in your school understand real beauty :)
~.::Wolfcraft877::.~ Damn.... what an amazing story... I'm kinda jealous you have such a story to tell to other people... It makes my life look so boring and with nothing that interesting as what happened to you.... :/ well I'll depress you with my mood no longer... ;)
Kandon_Games I doubt your life is boring! And don't be jealous, it could happen to you but in a different way. Don't let your hope run out!
CHAVIVA HADAD Haha, yeah! But I'm sure there's some Sheeran fans roaming your school. :3
~.::Wolfcraft877::.~ Right. The true fans of Ed Sheeran don't just love him for what he does, I love him for who he is, his humility and what he has been through. Ed, you are my hero.
This has been my new favorite song from him right since I first heard it. So powerful and heartbreaking and beautiful. If anyone's interested I learned this on piano for my youtube page, I'm addicted to Ed Sheeran's music... he's definitely an inspiration to me. The new album is amazing - this one and Tenerife Sea are my faves!
My Grandfather passed away 4 years away and listening to this song about Ed's grandfather reminds me of that time again.
I live in a different state then he did and when we got the news, we took a plane and then a short drive to reach his funeral. And in that time it took us to get there I got a chance to reflect on all the moments we shared together and that we would never share any again. As soon as we arrive i broke into tears and barely stopped even after his pyre was taken away. He was an amazing grandpa and an amazing human being. Listening to this song made me reminisce about our times just as i had when we were on the flight to his funeral and it makes me sad but i know that he would not have wanted me to stay stuck up on the past.
So thank you for this beautiful song Ed.
2023anyone?
The music... The meaning... The magnificence, He deserves every bit of success he has gotten...
*sniff sniff* T-T HE IS SO GOOD AT WHAT HE DOES!
He could write a song about a couch and I would still listen to it...
He could write a song about Lego and I would still buy it...
He could write a song about a prostitute and it would still win a award...
Every new track is more perfect than the last.
Its starting to get awkward for me cause he releases them when im in school so I have to excuse myself, sprint to a bathroom and listen to it xD
+Nikki Seelam I laughed so hard at that
this song is SO underrated, My brother has bought the "X" album and plays the album every time he drives so I also listen to this song every time we go someplace together so I've been listening to this song for multiple years now. This song is so good and so underrated I wish more people would listen to it.
This song resignates with anybody who has lost someone they love. There are no words to describe the pain.
That’s what is for, for expressing the things when simple words fail us 💜🙏
*resonates
This song is pure heaven.
This song goes on to show what incredible of an artist ed sheeran is. He put us in his shoes and made us empathize what it's like to have someone with Alzheimers. Furthermore he shifted the perspective to his granny's point of view showcasing that true love always prevails regardless of the severity of a deadly disease.
Yes, from his gran perspective. Exactly.
Said beautifully
I was heartbroken when my grandfather died 3 yrs ago i was very close with him.. Hard part was that he was overseas and not close by.. i couldn’t even say goodbye..that is life souls leave and other souls enter...😔
I know the pain
Here, 2024 March 18th, still relating to this song for my dead dog, love you so much pix. ❤️
this new album is going to be soooooooooooooooo good !!!!!
I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE !!!!
I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL its coming out 23rd right? xxxx
Erica Bridgewater On iTunes the 20th :D
Ed's style has not changed. He's always been a mixture of acoustic, and upbeat pop/ rap. Like tracks from + such as the city, grade 8, you need me I don't need you. He also has an entire Rap EP "The slumdon Bridge" with yelawolf. So stop complaining. If you only listen to his acoustic stuff that's fine, but don't complain when he releases more upbeat stuff, with accusations of him changing his style. Not true at all.
Finally someone said it!
EXACTLY! could not have said it better myself! Thank you!
Yes! Thank you for saying it.
A- fucking-men.
Finally some people with sense
Don't worry . You're not only one listening to this masterpiece in October 2021
I was seven, when my grandfather had this cerebral attack, and he couldn't even recognize us, after that. He dies after two months.
I don't know how it's possible, but following the lyrics, this is exactly how things turned out with my grandfather.
Beautiful song. Lost my mum to cancer on 9 june of 2014 . Will never be forgotten always miss-ing her. Feeling that i lost a huge part of my life with her when she passed. Just totally love this song. .

God took him away... Not devil. Your song is beautiful. Thank you, Ed.
Will Ed Sheeran ever write/create a bad song?
I don't think it's physically possible for him.
This is painfully beautiful.
One of the most beautiful songs out there. My favorite from Ed Sheeran.
same :) it's just beautiful.
Remembering Jenny ❤️
This song crept up on me. I just found myself singing it after having it on my playlist for years. Then I heard the lyrics and it just gutted me. So now I thinks it's awesome. I like that the emotional depth of it is platonic.
I hate the fact that I cannot cry to this song.
SAME
I balled
I'm 19 years old but I've lost all my grandparents, including one of my grandmas who died a year before I was born. This song means a lot, especially how simple yet truthful the lyrics are. Thank you for creating this song Ed!
I'm 11 and I've lost 3 of them
I'm 19 but I've never seen ANYBODY of my grandparents.
It doesn't matter my age, my grandparents passed away before I was born :/. I can't relate to the song, but I can feel it and it makes me cry a lot.
It's Aug 4 2023 and we still love this song. Those of us with PTSD from our old towns and childhoods we shed tears to this song for the love of family and those round us and show and our closest loved ones. God shine bright in our hearts and may we shine light on the memories of those who made our communities what they are as the towering pillars and foundations they have been and still are. 🤟🎶🎵🙏🤣😊♾️❤️🖤
I don't listen to his big mainstream songs, but the ones like this are truly something else. Afire Love specifically has to be my favorite. It carries so much that it never gets old.
This song came out one year and five months after I lost my own grandfather to Alzheimer's. He suffered with it for four years before he finally passed away the day after Christmas.
Sending you love xx.
Thank you Charlotte Stack
Rest in peace
Thank you Hana Huang
I feel you darling
The most beautiful song in the world.. my heart is full of this song.
Whoever you are we are kindred spirits.
My grandfather died recently due to cancer, and for some reason, I never really liked this song until now as it reminds me of him
This is the most beautiful song ever
My brother died last year, I miss him so so much
Gabi Souza aww bless you:(
I feel your pain :(
My brother passed away 3 months ago
+Gisselle. 94 mine too
I got this tattooed on my body. "We're set alight, we're afire love"
It's the most beautiful sentence I've ever heard
goals :-)
I have give me love on my wrist and tell me when it kicks in on my foot so I went to my friends and took my shoes and socks off and the thing is she did the same thing and had kiss me like you wanna be loved on her foot ❤️ I'm getting it on my back 😄
+Morgan Squire I got to be honest, sorry if I'm wrong but u look too young for a tattoo.
This is one of his best songs and means alot to me.
What a masterpiece, I'm in love with this song since I was in 7th grade.
