Shape Of You


"Shape of You" is a song by English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, released on 6 January 2017 as a lead single from his third studio album ÷. Blending dancehall and R&B influences, the track was co-written with Steve Mac and Johnny McDaid and produced by the same duo. Its groove-driven structure and melodic hooks make it a rewarding challenge for electric guitar players looking to explore rhythm-focused, pop-oriented playing styles.

  • The song interpolates "No Scrubs" by TLC, which is why four additional songwriters share a writing credit.
  • "Shape of You" was released as a double lead single alongside "Castle on the Hill" from the album ÷.
  • The track was co-produced by Steve Mac, a frequent collaborator known for polished, commercially successful pop productions.
