A typical day, 30 days to 21 October 2026
The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 396 days, one point a day.
Something wrong?A ginger-haired kid from Suffolk turned "Shape of You" into the sound of 2017 - then did it again, and again. Sheeran writes hooks that lodge in the global brain, sells 200 million records, and somehow makes stadium-sized pop feel like a guy with a guitar.

Born in Halifax in 1991, raised in Framlingham, Sheeran started writing songs at eleven and self-released No.5 Collaborations Project in early 2011 before signing with Asylum Records. His debut album + (2011) topped the UK charts on the strength of "The A Team"; × (2014) became the second-best-selling album worldwide in 2015 and won the Brit for British Album of the Year, with "Thinking Out Loud" taking two Grammys including Song of the Year. ÷ (2017) broke records when "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill" debuted in the top two slots across multiple countries, and the album became the year's global bestseller - the ÷ Tour later became the highest-grossing tour of all time. Since then he's stacked seven more UK number-ones, released four more chart-topping albums (No.6 Collaborations Project, =, −, and Autumn Variations), dabbled in acting (Yesterday, 2019), and racked up 119 million RIAA-certified units in the US. In December 2019 the Official Charts Company named him artist of the decade for the 2010s; Time listed him among the world's 100 most influential people in 2025.
