Play — Quick Facts
About Play Album
Play is Ed Sheeran's eighth studio album, released on 12 September 2025 — the first instalment of a planned five-album set named after media-control symbols (Play, Pause, Fast Forward, Rewind, Stop). Leaning into global, percussive, world-pop textures, it was led by the singles "Azizam" and "Old Phone" alongside Sapphire, Sheeran's landmark cross-cultural collaboration with Indian playback star Arijit Singh.
The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart — Sheeran's ninth UK chart-topper — and at number five on the US Billboard 200. The milestone pushed his career total past 50 weeks at the top of the UK albums chart, a first for any British solo artist, trailing only The Beatles, Elvis Presley and ABBA. For listeners arriving via Sapphire, Play is the record that folded South Asian sounds into the heart of a global pop juggernaut.
