Ed Sheeran presses play on a new era with the release of his new single ‘Azizam’ on 4th
April 2025. Available on CD, 7” and DSPs LISTEN / PURCHASE HERE / WATCH HERE
Get ready to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of "Azizam". A Persian term of
endearment that means "my dear" or "my beloved,” Ed’s new song is a return to joy, to light, to
love and to fun!
“Azizam" 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’s
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 “in between the dancing lights” on the danceflooruntil the Sun rises. A celebration of cross-cultural collaborations brought to life, this rhythmic
pop song is about the universality of emotion.
Ed said…“Even though it’s completely different to anything that I’ve 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.”
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. Watch Here
