‘You Need Me, I Don’t Need You’, is the brand new single by this year’s most exciting breakthrough artist - Ed Sheeran. Set for release on August 29th via Asylum Records, Zane Lowe has already made it ‘Hottest Record in the World’ and ‘Record Of The Week’, and it’s been added to daytime playlists at XFM and 1Xtra.
The forthcoming track comes hot on the heels of Ed’s debut, ‘The A Team’, which entered the singles chart at #3 in June, 2 months ago, making it the highest charting and biggest selling UK debut all year. ‘The A Team’ is still holding firm in the top 3 some 8 weeks after release. The video has amassed over 7 Million views on YouTube and is still pulling close to 100,000 views a day.
Originally told he needed to conform to succeed by dying his ginger hair and ditching his unique loop-pedal & rapped delivery, Ed responded by writing the now cult hit ‘You Need Me, I Don’t Need You’. Then, in February last year, after two years of constant gigging and sofa surfing, Ed filmed a live version of the song for leading youth broadcaster SB:TV. The clip got 100K hits in two days on YouTube and has now surpassed 3 Million views. “I was told by countless people that it wouldn't get anywhere and that I should stop playing it, so to actually have it as my second single is flippin’ wicked” says Ed.
