Ed Sheeran Releases 'Afterglow,' His First New Song Since 2019!

Ed Sheeran has just released his first song since 2019: listen to “Afterglow” right here!

About the song, Ed said, “Afterglow is a song I wrote last year that I wanted to release for you. It’s not the first single from the next album, it’s just a song I love, and hope you love too. Enjoy ! Have a safe and happy festive break and New Year’s. Back to dad land for me now, ciao x.” Previously, Ed released No.6 Collaborations Project in 2019, but has not released anything since.

“We were love drunk waiting on a miracle / Trying to find ourselves in the winter snow/ So alone in love like the world had disappeared / Oh I won’t be silent and I won’t let go / I will hold on tighter ’til the afterglow,” the 29-year-old singer croons on the song.

Ed and his wife Cherry recently became parents to a daughter, who they named Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran. This is his first song since welcoming the baby girl. Nearly one year ago, Ed stepped away from the spotlight and you can find out more about that right here.
