It seems like we've been waiting forever for this one.
Ed Sheeran's new album, ÷, finally dropped at midnight last night.
His first album in three years features a lot of Irish references - including a song called 'Galway Girl' and track about his Granny from Wexford. Grafton Street even gets a mention.
Cheers Ed!
