“There was an arch outside Buckingham Palace that has a heating duct and I spent a couple of nights there. That’s where I wrote the song ‘Homeless,’” Sheeran wrote. He later clarified the comments, saying he had never been homeless but that he just “went without a bed for some nights, that’s it.”

Jessie J actually co-writes a lot of her songs so she’ll be getting those sweet publishing royalties. She also co-wote Party In the USA for miley cyrus, i bet that song alone generates a shit ton of money.

I have a relative who co-wrote a song for Fleetwood Mac, on what’s generally considered their worst/least popular post-Rumours album, but it made it onto a ‘Best Of’ in the 80s and I’m pretty sure he still lives off the royalties.

He was probably feeling a little light headed so needed some smelling salts.

I remember an interview with her where she said that she lived purely off the royalties for Party in the USA for about five years.

People seriously underestimate how much more money there is in publishing/songwriting than in being a pop star per se.

Are those discs really heavy or is it the frame? They also look like they just robbed Eminem (as I remember him) to fuel some sort of creepy/life destroying habit. We know that middle finger is just a shield to hide behind man, get help!

this is FAKE NEWS. ed has actually installed these to keep paps off his property. let’s not lose our heads here fams.

If he wants rid of paps can’t he just give up inflicting his music on us and take a shitty office job?

sir he didn’t ask to be wealthy before the age of 40, who is the real victim

Ed has had a baby. The name?

Lyra Antarctica Seaborn Sheeran

This name choice is genuinely more interesting than his entire music career

Probably wasn’t even born at sea

It’s alright, you were going to hear it absolutely everywhere you go for the next five years anyway

It’s awful but I am genuinely fascinated by this song. Don’t think I have heard anything so nakedly cynical.
