I listened to Ed Sheeran on the way home in the car. It began to occur to him that he might not make it as a singer and he thought that he might make a living as a songwriter for other artists. How he was brought to a Damien Rice gig when he was just 11 and vowed then and there that he too would be become a singer songwriter and pursued that dream which led him to where he was now. The sun of the early evening had set and darkness, brightened by the fireworks, was falling. The masks came on for some as though nights of big music were big, there still is a pandemic, right? Like how he busked, in Galway and made €100 but made nothing when he went to Grafton Street! Had he come to Cork, where he has relations, he would have made a fortune but it was too late to tell him that. There was a runway from the stand to the stage which everybody was watching to see the ginger mopped singer emerge and a big roar went up every time a security detail came into view. His hits are cheerful love songs like Galway Girl or Shivers, the soulful and meaning packed ‘The A Team’, a song he wrote after playing a gig at a homeless centre when he was just 18. Back then, after my fleeting dalliance with fame, I would have been down in the pit hopping and jumping with the best of them. In Páirc Uí Chaoimh getting won over to the music of this generation. It wasn’t my first Páirc Uí Chaoimh concert so I don't have anything against such events in GAA grounds – it was more like a generational thing.

Ed Sheeran often says his music stands upon the shoulders of folk artists from Joni Mitchell through to Declan Rice and all the soulful Gods in between. And yet, in a live show, he’s all about the energy and fun. His genius has echoes of the 1980s/’90s, when Neil Young thanked Tracey Chapman for keeping the acoustic flame alive in a sea of electronic music. She was followed by Maisie Peters, the singer-songwriter that Sheeran is such a fan of he signed her to his own record label. The Suffolk singer said some of these songs had all the charm of “a wet fart” when he played them on his famous loop station in a few shows.
