Never thought I'd be head banging to a breakdown in an Ed Sheeran song but here we are. I love it when bands of different genre's perform together. It often yields super cool genre bends
Also, Ed sheeran is a HUGE metal fan. One of his favorite bands from the Uk is cradle of filth. And dani filth said that Ed and he are in talks to colab. Apparently, Ed has been a BMTH fan since 2006 ish. This is him getting in touch with his roots and youth. I think that is even cooler.
If you look at Ed’s body language throughout this performance, he clearly knows who he’s with, and he knows how to thrive in that setting. That’s why I have huge respect for him as a musician.
It was actually Ed's idea. How mad is that. And he lives heavy music. Imagine ed screaming 😂😂. He said he wanted Oli to go all in with the screams. But I think they did it just the right amount so not to scare the normies too much😂😂. Not everyone likes the heavy, but I love a huge variety of music so I'm loving this. Seen Ed and BMTH live. Both amazing. but the atmosphere of a rock concert beats the experience by a merry mile. Ed was great. Just weird seeing thousands of people just standing around singing with barely any movement. I thought they'd have gone a bit more nut's.
Awesome reaction Steven .. glad you checked it out .. Ed and Bring Me The Horizon are dropping a studio version this Friday I believe..you need to check Ed's older albums out as well my friend, plus , multiply and divide , keep up the great content Steven 🎧🎶🔥
I am a fan of Ed and BMTH and this is so SO good. Ed can literally collaborate with any one and make it work. I can't wait for the studio version of the song on Friday. Also the fact the BMTH were part of opening The Brits is amazing. Can always do with more diversity on that show with regards to rock/metal/alt etc.
Yeah agreed. BMTH can Collab,and have with anyone too, and it always works somehow. I love both Ed and BMTH. But seeing both live, BMTH wins. Although a no frills chill concert with beautiful vocals was nice. The atmosphere at a rock concert is magic. Seeing BMTH for a 2nd time in January and can't freaking wait.
Absolutely loved your reaction. I’ve been listening to BMTH for over a decade and BMTH continues to show us what rock music truly is. Also, props to Ed, I hadn’t heard that song before that.
The Brits are known for collabs that you wouldn’t think would be good together but end up completely AWSOME!! I thought this performance was fantastic!! LOVED IT!!!!
I’m a really big Ed fan, and he’s said multiple types. Growing up his favourite music was Eminem and rap a screamo and heavy metal. And now he’s done something in both his favourite styles. Awesome!
ive always been a huge BMTH fan, but im not an ed sheeran fan at all but this was sick!! im surprised by how well this turned out. i do like that ed has an appreciation for other genres & a willingness to try something new. i respect that.
Let make this really simple!…..ED SHEERAN IS A GENIUS!!!!! And can fit into any type of music! That’s why he’s so totally respected from so many artist of all kinds of music. Ed never fails with any kind of collab! And let’s talk about how that MASSIVE set (stage) was FIRE!!!
I feel exactly like you EVERY time i listen to it or see this video, i just really didn't know i'd need something like this to live but now I fucking do!!!!
Bro, didn't know what to expect, but wasn't expecting THIS. I like "Equals", I really do, "Sempiternal" is one of my fav albums (got both albums on vinyl). And hearing and seeing this just makes me.. happy. A lot.
If Ed Sheeran was an animal, he would be a capybara. They are the chillest, they love everyone, and everyone loves them. He does so many collabs with so many different people from different genres ❤.
Fell in love with BMTH shortly after they released Suicide Season… I am with you on not understanding the hate for bands that change up their sound and/or gain popularity 🙌 💜Loved this collab and am looking forward to the studio version!!! 👉For any Ed fans now curious to hear more BMTH (assuming you enjoy music similar to this collab)- Start with their album Amo (this is an album the band got the most crap from metal fans because it featured mainly rock, pop, hip hop, & club/edm in sound) Songs- ▫️mother tongue ▫️in the dark ▫️ouch ▫️medicine ▫️sugar honey ice & tea The rest of the album really too, MANTRA and wonderful life are the “hardest” but would probably still be enjoyable🤷♀️ Then from the album That’s The Spirit Songs- ▫️Follow You ▫️Drown ▫️Oh No ▫️Avalanche ▫️True Friends ▫️What You Need From the newest album Post Human: Survival Horror Songs- ▫️One Day All The Butterflies… (features Amy Lee from Evanescence) ▫️Teardrops ▫️1x1 (featuring The Nova Twins) A few others… From their very experimental album Music to Listen To…. (It is a really long album name so I will just cut it after the first bit and yes, both the song titles are just symbols) ▫️ ¿ featuring Halsey ▫️ ±ªþ³§ featuring Yonaka Released as a single- ▫️Die4u Songs with Oli featured- ▫️No More Friends by Olivia O’Brien ▫️SALT by daine ▫️Dummy by Cheat Codes (features Oli and BMTH) And if you like music by Rage Against The Machine, Get The Party Started by Tom Morello features BMTH
Never really cared for ed obviously very talented just not for me but my god this performance was incredible oli being able to keep up with ed shows his growth and my god the screams INCREDIBLE!!!
dude u gotta react to stray kids, not only coz thhere awesome and i think u would love them but judging by other peoples reactions they pull in good viewing figures, and ur awesome and deserve more :) i subscribed to some people just coz of there stray kids reactions :)
still waiting for a reaction to sam fender’s seventeen going under deluxe album !!!! 😭😭😭😭 i met sam the other day after his brits win and it was the most amazing experience so pls pls pls listen to his work !!
but in reality what ed did was just stand there and sing with his regular voice, i really don't see the shift or the collaboration, it felt more ed doing his thing and Oliver doing his thing separately lol
