Aside from his upcoming stadium tour, Ed plans to create an album that takes the pressure off making smash-hit records.

“My plan is a lo-fi album that will be my lowest-selling, but most loved,” he explained, citing Bruce Springsteen‘s Nebraska as inspiration, explaining that it could be out next year…or it could take four.

“I just want to make one movie,” he revealed.
