Ed Sheeran debuts at No.1 on the Irish Albums Chart with Play

Ed Sheeran has earned his fifth number one album on the Irish Albums Chart, with his new album, Play, debuting in the top spot.

After closing the door on his Mathematics series, the pop artist's 13 track record takes on a new style, inspired by a unique mix of Indian, Persian and Irish folk musical cultures.

His track 'Camera', inspired by the artist's wife, takes on a more classic Sheeran style. The video features Sheeran and Bridgerton’s Phoebe Dynevor as a couple in the early stages of a relationship. It's shot on an iPhone from the characters' perspective as the two ride on a moped, bar-hop and share the stage at one of the singer's stadium shows.
