Ed Sheeran Dropped Hints About His Next Collaboration With Taylor Swift

She’s been mostly silent since the whole Kardashian-Kanye incident, but that doesn’t mean that she hasn’t been working.

“Taylor [Swift] isn’t going to be releasing until probably the end of this year — Christmas is the smartest time to release because that’s when everyone buys records,” he said. “So I’ve got a full year of just all Ed, all the time.”

Now, he’s dropping hints that he may very well be a part of Swift’s next album. On the iHeartRadio Music Awards red carpet, Sheeran said that he would “definitely” be collaborating with Swift, according to Refinery29.

“Certainly in our lifetime,” Sheeran said of the release date.

The pair have collaborated before, after all. “Everything Has Changed” was on Swift’s classic Red. Sheeran’s star has exploded since then, as he’s ridden his songwriting chops to world fame and acclaim. Swift is probably Sheeran’s equal as a songwriter, and the two occupy a fairly similar orbit in the pop universe. So of course we’d welcome another song featuring both of them.

It should be that Taylor Swift has recently broken the silence and took to Instagram and Tumblr to express her excitement for Lorde’s new song.
