In a video posted on social media @Teddyphoto (name on THATInstagram Ed Sheeran), told his 45 million followers about the origins of his ninth album: “Last fall, I realized that my friends and I are going through a lot of changes. After the summer heat, everything calmed down, or collapsed catastrophically, or reached its maximum, or exploded. Songwriting helped me understand how I feel and accept what was happening to me at that difficult moment.. When I then compared myself to my friends, I wrote some pieces, some according to their point of view, other songs instead with my eyes, to capture the way we saw the world at that time. There were ups and downs, love and friendship, but there were also broken hearts, depression, loneliness, confusion.

Hence the project, based on the work of another songwriter, Elgar. “My father and brother told me about the composer Elgar, who wrote riddle variations, where each of the 14 tracks was dedicated to one of his friends. That’s what inspired me to write the album. When I signed up Subtract (-) with Aaron Dessner (his eighth album, released May 5, 2023) I immediately felt our chemistry. We wrote and recorded non-stop, this record is a collaboration. I am convinced that he has managed to convey the feeling of autumn in a unique way, and I hope that everyone will like this record as much as I do.
