This song is so underrated

I hear so much pain in his voice, whether he shows it or not, I think this guy has gone through some really hard times.

he didnt waste a single line. i fucking love this song. a true lyricist!

I hear so much pain and anger in his vocals and lyrics. So powerful and understandable

I don't know if it's easy for most people to play the guitar without looking but I find it amazing that his eyes are closed the whole time!

one of the best songs off this album. jeeeeeez.

Any body that says Ed aint the most talented singer/songwriter of this generation is crazy! I made it a goal to look for anything he's done that I didn't like n it can't be done.

It gets waaaay too emotional when he plays it live. The words are so real.

Genius, he's like the Messi of music

This song is so underrated.

i didnt hear it when i listened to the studio version, but this is kind of heartbreaking. so much, that i dont even feel like singing along, just listen to his voice.

I had doubts in this song and it was the only one that I didn't love like immediately. But obviously this live performance just blew me away. His voice is just soooo raw with emotion. Gahd I'm so crazy about this album.

That accent,that lyrics,that song

can't believe i get criticized for being in love with ed sheeran and his music. just because ojr generation is so obsessed with music about boobs, ass, drugs, sex, and alcohol makes me wrong about loving songs about life and growing up. i will always being entitled to an opinion with ed sheeran in it. too inspiration.

The part at the end of the second verse when he said "Success is nothing unless you have someone there to share it with, shit" was kind of heart breaking :(

this is peeeeerfect it's probably my favorite on this album

I miss you Ed :-(

ED SHEERAN IS BETTER LIVE EVERY TIME

love this song espacialy in this version its a litte bit more fast

this song is true writing. compare it to his new album and this just blows it right out of the water. this is why I'm still here in 2017

3:18 Ed Sheeran's hitting E5 Belt "The Man (Live at Exclusive Session)"

THIS IS FRICKING AMAZING. HIS VOICE.

I have no idea how he does that! You feel every word. This song is so amazing. One of the best on "X" for sure. He is amazing. Seriously. Can't imagine a life without he's music💕💖

I didn't warm to this song immediately but since listening to it a bit more it's one of my favourite tracks on the album.

The rawness of this gives me chills, its so powerful and he easily allows you to empathise with his feelings.. this is what real music is. Being able to feel what he feels or what he felt when he wrote this song. Amazing my love! x Just amazing Eddy.

Coming here after the drop of = Still one of his best works

This is what Catharsis looks like 💥🧘‍♂️🔥

His live performances never fail to amaze.

he is so fucking talented. such a great artist, a real one.

It's 2020 and I'm here.

His voice just gets better, love this piece

5 years later and this is still a masterpiece ✨

he is the most amazing artist. it blows me away

This gives me goosebumps

Raw talent. This is so incredible omg

Now I don’t wanna hate you Just wish you’d never gone for the man And waited two weeks at least Before you let him take you I stayed true I kind of knew you liked the dude from private school He’s waiting for the time to move I knew he had his eyes on you He’s not the right guy for you Don’t hate me cause I write the truth No I would never lie to you But it was never fine to lose you And what a way to find out It never came from my mouth You never changed your mind But you were just afraid to mind out But f- it, I won’t be changing the subject I love it I’ll make your little secret public it’s nothing I’m just disgusted with the skeletons you sleep with in your closet to get back at me Trapped and I’m lacking sleep Fact is you’re mad at me because I backtrack so casually You’re practically my family If we married then I’ll guess you’d have to be But tragically our love just lost the will to live But would I kill to give it one more shot I think not I don’t love you baby I don’t need you baby I don’t want you no Anymore I don’t love you baby I don’t need you baby I don’t wanna love you no Anymore Recently I tend to zone out Up in my headphones to Holocene You promised your body but I’m away so much I stay more celibate than in a monastery I’m not cut out for life on the road Cause I didn’t know I’d miss you this much And at the time we’d just go, so sue me I guess I’m not the man that you need Ever since you went to uni I’ve been sofa surfing with a rucksack Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad But when I broke the industry That’s when I broke your heart I was supposed to chart and celebrate But good things are over fast I know it’s hard to deal with and see this I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features Then I turn the music off And all I’m left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus I never really want to believe this Got advice from my dad and he Told me that family is all I’ll ever have and need I guess I’m unaware of it Success is nothing if you have no one there left to share it with I don’t love you baby I don’t need you baby I don’t want you no Anymore I don’t love you baby I don’t need you baby I don’t wanna love you no Anymore And since you left, I’ve given up my days off It’s what I need to stay strong I know you have a day job but mine is 24/7 I feel like writing a book, I guess I lied in the hook Cause I still love you and I need you by my side if I could The irony is if my career and music didn’t exist In 6 years, yeah, you’d probably be my wife with a kid I’m frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it’s Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I’m trying to kill And I’d be writing my will before I’m 27, I’ll die from a thrill Go down in history as just a wasted talent Can I face the challenge, or did I make a mistake erasing? It’s only therapy, my thoughts just get ahead of me Eventually I’ll be fine I know that it was never meant to be Either way I guess I’m not prepared, but I’ll say this These things happen for a reason and you can’t change shit Take my apology, I’m sorry for the honesty But I had to get this off my chest I don’t love you baby I don’t need you baby I don’t want you no Anymore I don’t love you baby I don’t need you baby I don’t wanna love you no Anymore

This is obvz for Alice. Many references to it.

I wish he had this much emotion on the studio versions of his songs, they're not terrible they just lack the emotion and energy he has live.

Did anyone hear the "shit!" Right after "success is nothing if you don't have anybody to share it with"? Is it part of the song or is it because he messed it up?:) I love him

Love his reference to the "27 club"

I love those ”anymore" just perfection! As always Ed is sooo much better live. You can feel his feelings

I love his live performance more than any other singer

Oh my God Ed Sheeran's new album is AMAZING!! I see fire gives me chills every time i listen to it! I dont think there's a single song that I dont like.

[Verse 1] Now I don't wanna hate you Just wish you'd never gone for the man And waited two weeks at least Before you let him take you I stayed true, I kind of knew You liked the dude from private school He's waiting for the time to move I knew he had his eyes on you He's not the right guy for you Don't hate me 'cause I write the truth No, I would never lie to you But it was never fine to lose you And what a way to find out It never came from my mouth You never changed your mind But you were just afraid to mind out But [fuck] it I won't be changing the subject, I love it I'll make your little secret public It's nothing, I'm just disgusted with the skeletons You sleep with in your closet to get back at me Trapped and I'm lacking sleep Fact is you're mad at me Because I backtrack so casually You're practically my family If we married then I'll guess you'd have to be But tragically our love just lost the will to live But would I kill to give it one more shot? I think not [Chorus] I don't love you baby I don't need you baby I don't want you no Anymore I don't love you baby I don't need you baby I don't wanna love you no Anymore [Verse 2] Recently I tend to zone out Up in my headphones to Holocene You promised your body but I'm away so much I stay more celibate than in a monastery I'm not cut out for life on the road 'Cause I didn't know I'd miss you this much And at the time we'd just go, so sue me I guess I'm not the man that you need Ever since you went to uni I've been sofa surfing with a rucksack Full of less cash and I guess that could get bad But when I broke the industry That's when I broke your heart I was supposed to chart and celebrate But good things are over fast I know it's hard to deal with and see this I tend to turn you off and switch on my professional features Then I turn the music off And all I'm left with is to pick up my personal pieces, Jesus I never really want to believe this Got advice from my dad and he Told me that family is all I'll ever have and need I guess I'm unaware of it Success is nothing if you have no one there left to share it with [Chorus] I don't love you baby I don't need you baby I don't want you no Anymore I don't love you baby I don't need you baby I don't wanna love you no Anymore [Verse 3] And since you left, I've given up my days off It's what I need to stay strong I know you have a day job but mine is 24/7 I feel like writing a book, I guess I lied in the hook 'Cause I still love you and I need you by my side if I could The irony is if my career and music didn't exist In 6 years, yeah, you'd probably be my wife with a kid I'm frightened to think if I depend on cider and drink And lighting a spliff I fall into a spiral and it's Just hiding my misguiding thoughts that I'm trying to kill And I'd be writing my will before I'm 27, I'll die from a thrill Go down in history as just a wasted talent Can I face the challenge, or did I make a mistake erasing [Alice]?

When I first listened to this song (studio version) I immediately fell in love with it.. I could not stop singing it.. all of my friends learned the words because I could not stop singing it even when I was with them. Then I saw this video and I cannot even describe how I feel about it .. it's just pure perfection.. the way he sings with all this passiin the way he plays the guitar.. he is just amazing... I've been listening to his music for like two and a half years or so and I'm literally in love with him..!

This song is my favourite , hits me strait in the heart,brings me to tears,gives me goosebumps i have a real connection with this song 😪

omg, this accoustic record is just perfect.

True talent

Oh how wonderful 😂😂❤

I love this song, I love him

Damn Ed. Please teach me your ways. I don't care how long it takes. I just want to be as good as you or something close :(

this song is my favorite

Words were uttered like water flowing.

Purest form of art right here

My absolute favorite song on X

my favourite!

YES!!! Love it!

He puts so much emotion in his voice. My dream is to be like him, no matter how unlikely it is. He is my idol and I would give anything to meet him

The lyrics to this are mental! :)

sooooo good!

There's so much pain in his voice. He's gone through some hard times. His girlfriend Alice went to the university and he went to London to chase his dreams of making music, to be the musician.

Amazing.

This is my most fav rap by ed
