18 Songs You Didn’t Know Ed Sheeran Wrote

Ed Sheeran has easily been deemed one of our generation’s most charming, soft-spoken crooners. Having churned out myriad chart-topping tunes — “Thinking Out Loud,” “The A Team” and “Photograph," to name just a few — it suffices to say that Ed has a knack for making great music.

His talents, though, extend far beyond just his vocal ability alone; Ed’s songwriting has earned him a fancy collection of highly-esteemed awards including an American Music Award, two BRIT Awards and his first-ever Grammy Award, which he just recently won for Best Pop Solo Performance at the 58th Grammy Awards on Monday.

To celebrate his 25th birthday today (Feb. 17), as well as his first Grammy win, we're honoring Ed's pen-game by running down songs he's written for other artists, from One Direction to Lupe Fiasco.

Check out the gallery above to see which songs that were written/co-written by Ed Sheeran.
