Does Divide Have Another Hit?

Ed's released "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill" as singles from his new album. "Shape of You" was sent to Pop formats and "Castle on the Hill" was sent to alternative radio. Obviously "Castle on the Hill" won't have the success SOY has because of that. 

Both songs are radio hits to me. Not a fan of him but, i can admit they are. I happen to prefer "Castle on the Hill" to "Shape of You". 

I just gave a quick listen to the songs with the most streams from the album on Spotify and I can't see any of the other songs as singles. 

I've never been a fan of singer/guitar playing songs so maybe its just my preference that's tainting that.

So are there songs you guys think have the most chance of being a hit next? 

 

I've heard "Galway Girl" ("Grigio Girls" impact?) seems to be the next favorite, but lemme know

OT: Probably ,since the album was made to appeal to basics

Definitely.

 

One thing I will say, though, is that if EVERY song is entering the UK Top 40 today, he's going to struggle to extend this era. I think the songs will get stale pretty quickly the way his fans are lapping them up at the moment. Can't expect any of them to be number one in a year's time (like they were on X).

What ^ said, could happen. Like 25, sold so many records, but only 1 top 5 song (which was massive, as Shape of You is becoming, and Divide is sure to sell tons of records).

I definitely see Send My Love-level success singles coming from the album tho, just bc he's so big I would be surprised if the 2nd single would flop.

There's gonna be that mid-tempo or ballad that is gonna kill the charts as seen with "Thinking Out Loud" I'm guessing Perfect or Supermarket Flowers or even Happier.

I feel Eraser and Galway Girl have potential to be moderate hits but nothing like SOY or COTH.

Yup that's pretty much it.

I don't see another SMASH / SOY sized hit, but I think once he releases Perfect it will be around for a long, long time.
