Los Angeles, July 12 English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has a cardinal rule with regards to making his wife listen to new music.
The singer waits until his wife is in a good mood before he plays his new music to her, reports ‘Female First UK’.
The 34-year-old singer, who has daughters Lyra, four, and Jupiter, two, with spouse Cherry, always looks to his family for feedback but admitted his childhood sweetheart can "kill" a song if she isn't instantly enthusiastic because he trusts her judgement.
Asked if he asks his family for their opinions on his songs, he told Kylie Kelce on her ‘Not Gonna Lie’ podcast, "100 percent. Yeah, 100 percent. Cherry can kill a song. She can. I'm actually really careful to play her songs when she's in a good mood. Because if she's like, 'Eh’, then in my mind, I'm like, 'Okay. That song's dead’. She's just got a very good taste and read on things. Like, even I would write, I'd say, three songs a day, five days a week. And I'll come home and I'll play them. And she can sift through that pretty easily”.
As per ‘Female First UK’, the singer recalled writing a number of songs on one particular day, including his 2021 single Bad Habits, and playing them back to Cherry.
He said, "I came home, I listened to them all in the car, and I was kind of excited about most of them. And I played them to her, and she was like, 'That one, that Bad Habits one, that's the one you should finish tomorrow’. She's got she's got a very good read on stuff”.
Ed also believes his daughters have a "good read" on his music too and they often "gravitate" towards the songs that are popular with his younger fan base when Cherry plays his records while he's away on tour.
