Ed Sheeran Releases 'Play' Album, 'Camera' Music Video

Ed Sheeran released his eighth studio album Play and the music video for the single Camera on Friday, September 12, 2025.
Sheeran created Play as a contrast to his previous heavy album Subtract, drawing on love, life, and cultural exploration during his recent touring.
The 13-track album blends Indian and Middle Eastern musical elements with introspective ballads, while the Camera video stars actress Phoebe Dynevor recreating relationship milestones.
Critics gave mixed reviews: The Guardian's Petridis noted a dark emotional undercurrent, Rolling Stone's Georgi and NME's Bassett rated three stars, while Billboard called it buoyant and vibrant.
Play serves as the initial installment in Sheeran's series of five albums represented by symbols, setting the stage for a new chapter as he prepares to move his family to the United States.
