Reflecting on the creative process behind his album, Sheeran shared insights on his expansive musical journey on social media. The artist expressed the challenges of selecting tracks for the album and the joy of curating a “super deluxe” version with 14 additional songs. This extended edition, according to Sheeran, encapsulates a diverse range of themes, genres, and collaborations within the Play universe.
