A few months ago, I wrote a review of the first two singles off of Ed Sheeran's "Divide." In the review, I talked about how they made me even more interested in the new album in question. The album that he released was varied, as the first two releases would've suggested. There were parts where he returned to his "singer with a flow" past, particularly in the opening track, "Eraser". There are slower songs, like "How Would You Feel (Paean)", that I would expect people to start playing at weddings, and tearjerkers like the ironically titled "Happier" and "Supermarket Flowers", which is a different kind of sad, similar to "Afire Love", from his second album "Multiply".

Another song that sticks out to me as similar to something off "Multiply" was "Dive". With the more retro feel, thanks mostly to the guitar style, it sounds like "Thinking Out Loud". The song was co-written by Julia Michaels, who you may have recently heard on the radio with her new song "Issues". This song gets its own paragraph because it is easily my favorite off the album.

As expected, the album is filled with relatable lyrics. Examples of this include "I chased the picture perfect life/I think they painted it wrong" and "Don't call me baby/Unless you mean it."

There's also plenty on this album for those of us who just want to listen to happy music. "Perfect" and "Galway Girl" sound completely different, but both evoke the warmth and joy associated with love that's going right.

With so many different things going on, I would argue that even if you're not into the whole album, there will be something on here that you'll be interested in.
