Ed Sheeran and Irish band Beoga covered 'Fairytale Of New York' and got a fairly mixed reaction
ED SHEERAN WAS in the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge today to sing a few tunes, as artists tend to do in the BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge.
He played his new single ‘Perfect’, minus Beyoncé, unfort. Mustn’t have gotten his email about coming on. :(
Very good.
Then, he decided to make a bold move with his cover choice – and take on ‘Fairytale Of New York’ by The Pogues and Kirsty McColl.
AKA interpret a national institution, with help from Anne-Marie and Beoga.
Before performing the song with Anne-Marie and Beoga, Ed said:
Interesting logic there, Ed.
Anyway, it went down a treat for some.
Committed listening, here.
Others were very happy to see Beoga getting a look in.
… And then there’s the *other* reactions.
Whoops!
We couldn't find this Tweet
“Call Taggart, there’s been a murder.”
The full version is up on YouTube now, if you fancy a gawk.
