Pressing Play on Ed Sheeran: Highs, Lows, and the Best Way to Listen
Ed Sheeran’s Play is the first in his new “media control” series (Play, Pause, Rewind, Fast Forward, Stop), and it’s the most sonically adventurous he’s been in years.

Posing on all fours in stilettos, satin, and pure sass while a suited mystery man holds her by the hair, the image is sending the internet into a full-blown spiral. It’s provocative, it’s polarizing — and yeah, that’s the whole point.
