Ed Sheeran Teases a Major Comeback for 2025

stayc main image

Ed Sheeran, one of the most successful singer-songwriters of the modern era, is preparing for a big return to the pop music scene in 2025. After a quieter few years focused on collaborations and personal projects, Sheeran has hinted at an exciting new chapter in his career, including a fresh album and new music videos already in production.

A Year of Collaboration and Creativity

While 2024 was less focused on Sheeran’s solo work, it was far from uneventful. He collaborated with director Richard Curtis on the Netflix animated feature That Christmas, contributing a poignant song titled "Under the Tree." The track, which Sheeran has described as his first "sad Christmas song," resonated deeply with audiences for its heartfelt depiction of the bittersweet aspects of the holiday season. This project allowed Sheeran to flex his creative muscles in new ways, bridging the gap between music and storytelling.

In addition to his work on That Christmas, Sheeran explored various creative partnerships and continued to cement his place as a versatile artist capable of crossing genres and media formats.

The Upcoming Album

With his collaborative ventures now wrapped up, Sheeran is turning his full attention back to his solo career. The 32-year-old artist has already completed a new album, which promises a return to his signature pop sound after experimenting with more personal, introspective themes on his previous records, Equals and Subtract. Both of those albums, released during the pandemic, showcased a more subdued side of Sheeran, reflecting on themes of loss, love, and fatherhood.

This next album, however, is rumored to embrace a more upbeat, energetic tone—a return to the "big pop" style that characterized his earlier successes like Divide and Multiply. While no release date has been announced yet, fans are buzzing with anticipation, especially after Sheeran confirmed that he has already filmed two music videos for the album, with plans for more in the coming months.

Looking Forward to 2025

In recent interviews, Sheeran has expressed excitement about reconnecting with his fans on a larger scale. After the relative intimacy of his pandemic-era releases, this new phase feels like a natural evolution—a chance to celebrate music’s ability to bring people together.

“I’m ready to go big again,” Sheeran hinted, signaling a return to the expansive, arena-filling sound that made him a global sensation.

A Legacy of Evolution

Over the years, Sheeran has proven himself to be a master of reinvention. From his humble beginnings busking on the streets of London to becoming one of the world's best-selling artists, his career is a testament to hard work, resilience, and a willingness to adapt.

As fans eagerly await the release of Sheeran’s new album and the accompanying visuals, one thing is clear: 2025 is shaping up to be a banner year for the chart-topping artist. Whether he's penning heartfelt ballads or crafting radio-friendly anthems, Ed Sheeran continues to captivate audiences with his authenticity and artistry.
