You Need Me, I Don't Need You

Had to post to rave about another talented singer...his name? Ed Sheeran.

I'm not one who keeps up with the music scene and i usually find out what's new by my daughters playing it or singing away to it in the shower. This time though i heard about the fantastic Ed Sheeran by hearing him sing with Leddra Chapman. Being a curious person i had to go and google this talented bloke and just love his songs.
You need me, i don't need you is a brilliant song and is a song perhaps in the past i would of avoided but this talented red head makes it work. Have to say i think it has great meaning, and there are plenty of times i have wanted to say to people..hey hang on..you need me but i don't actually need you. Well kind of..i'm the kind of person who is needed when someone wants something anyway i digress. Ed Sheeran has many great songs and as with Leddra i'm shocked i haven't come across him before but better late than never huh?

Another song i have fallen in love with by him singing is Wayfaring Stranger, Johnny Cash did a brilliant cover of this song but Ed brings some youth to the song and sings it so very well. It's totally different to You Need Me and yet i really like both of these songs. Have a listen and give it a chance, i'm sure you won't be disappointed.
