"They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator" After 3 seconds I got it, and It blew my fucking mind

Anyone here in 2024 👇

He’s not a dancer, he’s a sign language translator with a flow

My deaf wifes fave song, turn the volume up to max. She feels the vibes and LOVES the video.

Y'know, this is technically a lyric video.

This song is so relatable for everyone who's that one person who does all the work in a group project.

Ed’s been reppin since day 1 and people are tryna call him out now for jumping onto the grime train. He’s been in the game longer than most

"I won't be a product of my genre" Stuck to his words, master of all genres, especially with his new collabs project

singer, song writer, rapper, guitarist... this is a musician .

THEY SAY I'M UP AND COMING LIKE I'M FUCKING IN AN ELEVATOR

I came here from Maneskin and boy I did not know this was from Ed and also never excpected it to be after hearing their version. It changed so much lol

Ed Sheeran to Autotune: You Need Me, I Don't Need You 😂😂 He's really a Gem ❤️❤️

Ed Sheeran should have his own genre

While everyone's out there making a big deal of "shape of you", we are here jamming to this masterpiece

The level of appreciation i have for BSL (and all sign languages for that matter) cannot be understated. This music video paired with Sheeran's sharp lyrics and flow is amazing!

"It's ironic how you people thought i'd never great" - Ed Sheeran

He's not a rapper, he's a singer with a flow.

"They say im up and coming like in fucking in an elevator" has to be one of my all time favorite lyrics by anyone.

This song is way ahead of its time. I am blessed to see Ed perform live yesterday 🙏 🙌

Ed raps more better than most "Lil" these days

*Ed Sheeran's genre:* - rap - his own beat - beatbox - Irish vibe - vocal *Music Video* - aesthetic - color relates to its album cover - *WOW*

I love how they made sign language totally badass

I love this song. A hidden gem, why did Ed stop making songs like this? 🥺

I usually like metal but holy shit Ed is so good love this songs he's so dam talented

"Names on the credits and you didn't write nothing." Professor Lockhart, I'm looking at you

"Call yourself a singer-writer, your just bluffing, names on the credits but you didn't write nothing" DAMN 🔥

Does anyone else get so hyped up when they hear this song

THEY SAY IM UP AND COMING LIKE IM FUCKING IN AN ELEVATOR

"They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator" Best line EVAR!

I just realized Deaf people can listen to this.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the sheer-an cheeky lyrical brilliance of the line at 3:17? Mind blown. Also I love the visibility that Ed gives to disability & all other sorts of people in his videos - ability, race, life circumstance. He truly is a musician for the world!

Never piss off ed Sheeran

People need to understand that Ed's talent as a writer wasn't an inborn gift. He dedicated his whole life to this schizz. That's why he's amazing.

Ed inspired me to go all in with my music, he was once just like me, an artist trying to get heard. Now he’s on top. I genuinely believe it will happen for me one day, Im not stopping when it does! 🧡

I love that he used sign language to add an extra element of art to his song. Genius.

"They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator" Best Ed Sheeran line EVER

I though he was dancing, but that s sign language omg

The elevator line is crazy. 💀😭😭

One of the most captivating music videos ever made, could not take my eyes off of it. Appreciate the craft behind it true masterpiece.

"They say I’m up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator" still best line ever written

"They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator." Is it wrong that this is one of my favorite song lyics ever?

His voice is so addictive. I love his songs.

"I won't stop 'til my name's in lights At stadium heights" Powerful lyrics! You did it Ed. Law of attraction.

Bet the new Ed Sheeran fans didn't know he could rap. I remember the days when I would ask someone if they knew Ed Sheeran and they would respond with "who's that" but now they're jumping on the Ed bandwagon yet the only songs they know are Shape of you and thinking out loud. For all you genuine new fans I applaud you for actually checking out his older works. I couldn't be anymore happier for Ed, he's finally receiving the attention he deserves, as a really old fan it's beautiful to see his growth over the years.

Definitely one of his best songs. Definitely one of his least known tracks. Underrated track would be an underrated comment!

Just heard this at Wembley on Thursday and Ed absolutely smashed it! He made the beat really come to life with the visual effects, the whole stadium was going mental!

I love this man. Beautiful soul, inside and out. He is a true talent. “ Up and coming like I am Fucking in a Elevator “! Best line ever!

"They say I'm up and coming like I'm f---ing in an elevator" Strong words right there

'Suffolk sadly seems to suffocate me' m8, the alliteration is insane

Here for Måneskin babey

Thank you for making the video of the song with sign language, my uncle is deaf and I could never show him music videos, and now he can understood what was happening, now he can see the music, just like i hear it, thanks.

Criminally underated, easily Ed's best track for me.

This song in live is even more incredible, he has flow but he's also a real performer

Can you believe people still think he's just a singer ? I think he's God . Ohhhhhhhh I wish I had a voice like thisssssssss!!!!!!!!

This song is too underrated.

This the longest Music-Ly video EVER

Lyrics are fucking on point. So much meaning. So much swag. And so true.

Not me thinning this was already pretty fast and then hearing Damiano like 👁👄👁️

Has Ed tried heavy metal, reggaeton, reggae? That guy can whatever the f#ck he wants to sing! That's a genius right there!!!

Saw him do this live. He's literally even faster live. So hard to keep up with. But such a great concert

Ed Sheeran doesn't need world. But, World need Ed Sheeran

I love how the sign language actor does the sign language to all of the deaf people that watch this video when Ed is singing this song, it’s really helpful for deaf people listening to this song!🧏🎶🎵🎸

I haven't heard this song in years and it feels like I've heard it for the first time again.

Ed Sheeran is literally a musical genius... Bro you keep inspiring me, I'll give you credit if my hard work pays off. But for now yeah, I need you right now you don't need me.

Now I’m in town, break it down, thinking of making a new sound Playing a different show every night in front of a new crowd That’s you now, ciao, seems that life is great now See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud And I can’t, no, I won’t hush I’ll say the words that make you blush I’m gonna sing this now Oh oh See, I’m true, my songs are where my heart is I’m like glue, I stick to other artists I’m not you, now that would be disastrous Let me sing and do my thing and move to greener pastures See, I’m real, I do it all, it’s all me I’m not fake, don’t ever call me lazy I won’t stay put, give me the chance to be free Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me ‘Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you at all You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you at all You need me I sing and write my own tune and I write my own verse Hell, don't need another word-smith to make my tune sell Call yourself a singer-writer - you’re just bluffing Your name’s on the credits and you didn’t write nothing I sing fast, I know that all my shit’s cool I will blast and I didn’t go to Brit School I came fast with the way I act, right I can’t last if I’m smoking on a crack pipe And I won’t be a product of my genre My mind will always be stronger than my songs are Never believe the bullshit that fake guys feed to ya Always read the stories that you hear on Wikipedia And musically I’m demonstrating When I perform live, feels like I am meditating Times at the Enterprise when some fella filmed me ‘A young singer-writer like Gabriella Cilmi’ ‘Cause you need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you at all You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you You need me, man, I don’t need you at all You need me 'Cause with the lyrics I’ll be aiming it right I won’t stop 'til my name's in lights At stadium heights with Damien Rice On red carpets, now I’m on Arabian Nights Because I’m young I know my brother's gonna give me advice Long nighter, short height and I gone hyper Never be anything but a singer-songwriter, yeah. The game's over but now I’m on a new level Watch how I step on the track without a loop pedal People think that I’m bound to blow up I’ve done around about a thousand shows But I haven’t got a house plus I live on a couch So you believe the lyrics when I’m singing them out, wow From day one, I’ve been prepared With vo5 wax for my ginger hair So now I’m back to the sofa, giving a dose of what the future holds 'Cause it’s another day Plus I'll keep my last name forever keep the genre pretty basic Gonna be breaking into other people’s tunes when I chase it And replace it with the elephant in the room with a facelift Into another rapper's shoes using new laces I'm selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the papers Selling CDs from my rucksack aiming for the majors Nationwide tour with Just Jack, still had to get the bus back Clean cut kid without a razor for the mustache I hit back when the pen hurts me I’m still a choir boy in a Fenchurch tee I’m still the same as a year ago But more people hear me though According to the MySpace and KZfaq videos I’m always doing shows if I’m not I’m in the studio Truly broke, never growing up call me Rufio Melody music maker Reading all the papers They say I’m up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator .

Anytime I come back to this video it's still as absolutely mind-blowing as it was 10 years ago. Masterpiece, really.

I like how he doesn't care what people think of him i just does what he wants

just discovered this Ed song, determined to get the lyrics memorized.

i got to know about this masterpiece this late.... Shame on me

'Suffolk sadly seems to sort of suffocate me' Now THAT is a lyric

And people say Ed Sheeran can't rap…

I wanna believe this is what Ed sang when Jamie Foxx brought him to a black Night Out

They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator has been my favorite since I was 15. The best part of the whole song. I fucking love that line

I WILL NEVER NOT LOVE THIS SONG BUT THE 12 MINUTE VERSION IS THE MOST FUN TO RAP

I remember watching him sing this on a street on KZfaq when he just came out. When he says I still sleep on a couch that explains the music industry perfectly. I remember thinking I was big because I was coming up in Irish hip hop and I met Ed as a young lad busking in Ireland Dublin and me giving him advice just because I thought he was talented even then. Then I fuxk up mess up end up locked up and I'm watching this kid hitting it big in the charts. I should have asked you for advice and I still write songs because originally I was a singer. If I ever chose to sing a song with someone it would be ed... Damien rice... Elton John... freddie mercury...garth brooks but mostly Ed because he is living what i thought he would live thinking I'll meet him along the way. To the best times of my life and to the love of my life I dedicate this to you. I should have wrote songs and sang them like I did when no one knew. Damien rice advised me to and I was so wrapped up in a messed up life I ended up messing up. Ed your an inspiration to a lot of kids including my baby boy and my beautiful baby girl. They love you. I think everyone does 🌟

Let's keep it simple. This song is fucking awesome!

this is amazing my sister is deaf and artists pretty much never have Sign Language in their original videos

Seeing this live made me see things in a whole new shade, he’s truly amazing!

This guy has so much swag he literally doesn't need words. Imagine competing against him for a deaf woman

"They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator." Fucking GENIUS!!

Frustration-born rap can be some of the best rap. And rap from a person who doesn't usually give off a "I can and will rap" vibe is 10 times better.

People don't relise what he says in this video he actually done

"they say i'm up and coming like i'm fucking in an elevator" i can't believe this bar came from one of the best selling artists ever 💀

The lyrics of this song inspires me so much. I have been struggling for the last three years to turn my dreams into reality, and whenever the going gets impossibly tough, this song strengthens my resolve. If anyone else is also going through shit, because you believe in something, and you are not getting immediate results, DO NOT GIVE UP! Do not settle for anything less than what you deserve, dream big and work hard. One day you can tell the haters... "You need me, I don't need you." Love from India.

This song is so underrated imo favorite song by Ed by far.

One of the underrated song of Ed!

Only Ed Sheeran could make sign language look bad ass! I love the video!

LEGENDS DONT BREATH

People: "white people cant rap" Ed Sheeran: .... Eminem: ....

Man, he revolutionized raps, as he rapped acoustically, included sign language into the rap with same speed, and killed the competition.

Imagine your this successful and well respected that you have the right to sing this song.

Damn that dude was on point throwing up those gang signs the whole video.

The whole album is a great piece of good and real music.

Ed's music reaches every corner even if someones deaf or someones blind. Ed is for everyone, he is the best artist to have written all masterpieces without leaving a single one as a bad or a flop. All are hit! But I love him more than his songs 💛
