Ed Sheeran presses play on a new era with the release of his new single \u2018Azizam\u2019<\/em> on 4th April 2025. Available on CD, 7\u201d and DSPs<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get ready to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of “Azizam”.\u00a0 <\/em>A Persian term of endearment that means “my dear” or “my beloved,\u201d Ed\u2019s new song is a return to joy, to light, to love and to fun!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAzizam”<\/em>\u00a0 began as a meeting of minds in the studio with Swedish\/Iranian producer Ilya Salmanzadeh (Ariana Grande, Charli XCX, Ellie Goudling, Sam Smith). Driven by Ed\u2019s relentless curiosity they soon realised how much Persian and Irish folk music have in common and how only Ed could set those influences in a pop context. The result is a hedonistic technicolor call to action to live the moment \u201cin between the dancing lights\u201d<\/em> on the dancefloor until the Sun rises. A celebration of cross-cultural collaborations brought to life, this rhythmic pop song is about the universality of emotion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ed said\u2026\u201cEven though it\u2019s completely different to anything that I\u2019ve ever done before, Azizam feels familiar to me. I wanted to create a party atmosphere in a song and Ilya Salmanzadeh, who I worked with on the track, helped bring that to life. He was so inspiring to work with.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

In the video accompanying the single release, Ed embarks on a journey across the US and UK with a pink, heart-shaped balloon in tow. He takes in the sights of New York from an iconic yellow taxi, cruises through Los Angeles in a classic open-top car, and braves the elements in rural Massachusetts. Along the way, he leads a street party in New Orleans and makes stops in Boston and Nashville. And, of course, no trip would be complete without a visit to his beloved Ipswich Town FC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
