7) Photograph ft.Yo Vernon
This song was a collaboration with Ed Sheeran and this wonderful artist Yo Vernon. It is a love story that happened both in an old music studio and in the present day, which speaks beautifully about how things from your past can still have influences on your future. The video shows Ed Sheeran recording his part of the track while other scenes show Yo Vernon at home looking through various photos from his/her childhood while singing along to it…I think she must be thinking about her mother who had died years before…The video ends with her going back to her parent’s room and picking up a picture of them together matching exactly what you imagined would happen after watching it.
