.EdSheeran delighted New York City diehard fans by performing a sold-out show at the 1,200-capacity Irving Plaza — one of whom got to join the pop superstar onstage for a surprise duet of “Thinking Out Loud.”
“I can’t tell you how much I’ve missed this,” Sheeran told the crowd after leading a sing-along of “Castle on the Hill.” The performance also included a sleigh bell-laden rendition of “Merry Christmas,” Sheeran’s just released holiday single with Elton John.
The show’s highlight came when Sheeran brought a fan named Michael onstage after the first chorus of “Thinking Out Loud,” noticing his high “’s” coming from the crowd. In a spot where most fans would be slightly nervous to snatch the mic from Sheeran, Michael instead crooned the rest of the song with aplomb, as Sheeran smiled and leaned in to sing alongside the fan.
At the end of the song, Sheeran gave Michael a hug, and the crowd chanted his name. If Sheeran pulls another fan onstage at Jingle Ball on Friday night, they’ve got their work cut out for them.
