"We push and pull like a magnet do"

Like a magnet do? Confused

Why not: "I'm in love with the shape of your ARSE,
We push and pull like a magnet does"

It's pissing me off. Angry.

Or even 'we push and pull, like magnets do'?

Mrsglitterfairy · 05/02/2017 19:50

Hey hey! I will hear nothing bad said about the ginger god that is mr Sheeran Grin

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 05/02/2017 19:51

Arse and does isn't any better!

Sallystyle · 05/02/2017 19:51

My son plays this song on repeat about 200 times a day. It's driving me up the wall and now I have something else to hate about it.

TheRollingCrone · 05/02/2017 19:53

Or "I'm in love with the shape of your arse
This whole fucking songs a farce"

Tut,tut Ed.

AnyFucker · 05/02/2017 19:54

That song is shite

"I'm in love with your bawwwwdy"

Mr Sheeran is quickly turning into the guy that wore the Emperor's clothes. A triumph of social meeja over talent. A bit like Adele.

AnyFucker · 05/02/2017 19:54

And he needs to stop with the combover

Ginmakesitallok · 05/02/2017 19:54

"Now mu bedsheets smell of you", dd1 quick as a flash "why, does she stink?" Grin

Eminybob · 05/02/2017 19:56

I bloody hate this song it's ridiculously sexist and grammatically incorrect.

I bloody love his other one, castle on the hill though. It makes me nostalgic for my place of birth and is definitely superior. God knows what shape of you is number one. It doesn't even sound like an Ed Sheeran song.

SorrelSoup · 05/02/2017 19:56

He knows how to write songs that make money. He's good at what he does and the yoof love him. Shame he's such a fucking arse though. Adele has become a parody of herself.

BillyButtfuck · 05/02/2017 19:57

I'm in love with shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet, too.

Is that any better? Can't be any worse.
Love him and most of his music but that line is not good.

And the mmmm-mmm-hmm bits remind me of Matthew Mcconaughey in The Wolf of Wall Street.

Jengnr · 05/02/2017 19:58

I don't know the song and can't bear Ed Sheeran but, I'm sorry OP, 'does' does not rhyme with 'arse'

ThursdayLastWeek · 05/02/2017 19:59

I wasn't even able interpret that line, before I turned the radio off because the bit I understood made me want to vom.

teaforbreakfast · 05/02/2017 20:00

"I'm in love with the smell of poo" Grin

So sing my tutor group.

I'm just relieved ed is singing like a twenty something man for once and not like he's well into his seventies.

DorkusDelonghi · 05/02/2017 20:01

I'm in love with shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet, Lou.

I'm in love with shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet. Poo.

I'm so fucking sick of this song.

SorrelSoup · 05/02/2017 20:02

They were on Graham Norton together the other week and I thought just that!!!! Grin

LivinOnAChair · 05/02/2017 20:03

Haha DP (very maturely!) sings 'and now my bed sheets smell of poo' Grin I can't hear anything else when I hear the song now, cracks me up!

supermoon100 · 05/02/2017 20:08

I think it's a gorgeous song. One could always turn off the radio if one doesn't like?

Jellymuffin · 05/02/2017 20:11

He wrote it for Rihanna and decided he liked it and kept it himself. Makes the song make more sense!

teaforbreakfast · 05/02/2017 20:11

People are always doing that for Rihanna.

Sia did the same with 'chandelier' by all accounts.

Jellymuffin · 05/02/2017 20:12

She should write her own songs then!

JoyceDivision · 05/02/2017 20:12

Maybe even Rihanna, fellow producer of crap, realised it was rubbish and gave him it back Grin

Jellymuffin · 05/02/2017 20:14

Yeah, I suppose she'd have HATED to have a song that's number one!

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 05/02/2017 20:15

Good song. It doesn't suit End Sheeran, though.

iklboo · 05/02/2017 20:16

'I'm in love with your body'

What's wrong with my face??
