Musician Ed Sheeran unveils a brand new single, titled "A Little More"
Ed Sheeran's latest single, "A Little More", sees a creative reunion with Rupert Grint, who previously starred in the "Lego House" video in 2011. The music video, set to be officially released soon, continues their collaboration with a playful yet emotionally complex storyline.
The new video finds Rupert portraying a "British ginger doppelganger" who is haunted by his past and trying to get his life back together. The video was shot on a low budget with a casual, spontaneous style, featuring props like Lego pieces from Ed's tour bus and highlights from their ongoing friendship.
The song itself showcases a blend of anger, fun, and pop lightness, marking a departure from Ed Sheeran's usual style. It deals with feelings of heartbreak and resentment, expressing a bittersweet mix of emotions with lyrics about loving someone but hating them "a little more" every day. The music video matches this tone with its dynamic, sometimes chaotic imagery, indicating an emotional struggle beneath the surface.
Ed Sheeran had a "wild idea" for the video after writing the song, and Rupert was happy to join. The video is described by Ed as an "utterly bonkers" and upbeat but angry visual, contrasting with the song's themes of conflicted emotions like love turned to hate. It blends humor and intensity, including moments like Rupert recreating the "Spider-Man meme" on set.
"A Little More" is the fourth single from Ed Sheeran's upcoming album 'Play', set to be released on September 12th. The song, with its catchy melody, energetic drive, and playful undertone, is now available for listening. The official music video for "A Little More" is already generating buzz, with its teaser capturing the attention of fans worldwide.
Rupert Grint's involvement in the video creates a nostalgic link to Ed Sheeran's early career, while updating their story with a mix of humor and pain relevant to the new song. This creative reunion is a testament to their enduring friendship and their ability to create compelling and unique content.
