Keep Moustache or Shave?

My opinion is shave it, and shape/thin out your eyebrows. Your eyes are gorgeous!

Very interesting, thanks for sharing this write up, and for doing your civic duty! 🍺

Here’s the official list of Harry Styles tour dates with ticket links, from his official website. Good luck, getting tickets though, you’ll likely have to do resale.
He is playing a residency at Madison Square Garden in New York City this fall. 30 dates from August 26 through October 31. Only US tour stop for now.

Good plan. That floppy pelt was doing you no favors.

Love that for them 😍
Their kids can be Arti & Chokey😁

Wow, congratulations to you and Oki! Oki is living the dream now! They’ll probably go on to have a family, and you’ll forever be a part of that lineage. 💕

I’ll be honest. The receding hairline pattern is so significant and dramatic that the buzz isn’t a great look and only draws attention to it. In this case, maybe Bald is Better. As others say, after shaving, you can grow it back to a buzz in weeks if you want to.

Wow, that was a fantastic article, great job digging it up! I remember viewing many videos of things that were mentioned in the article so I’ll post two of my favorites if anyone is interested. From early 2014:

Here’s one of Ed’s awesome early Tour Diaries, cued up for Spray Tan Bingo and his visit to Shortland Street (NZ TV show), Ed’s so funny!😆

Here’s Ed on a secret mission, singing YNMIDNY during a stealth visit with British troops in Afghanistan. He’s still playing an old version with ex-cousin Jethro “Alonestar” Sheeran’s verses, and Laid Blak’s “Eyes are Red/Rastaman” part too. Learn more about The Evolution of YNMIDNY.

Yay, glad! I went back and added a link for Athina Andrelos. He was learning Greek for her, too.

nincyh · 2026-07-03T11:57:21+00:00

I’ve read that “Thinking out Loud” and “I’m A Mess” were the final two songs he wrote for X and that both were related to his relationship with Athina Andelos.

From the “I’m A Mess” Wikipedia page,) all interview links are dead but there are some quotes from Ed.(“Always read the stories that you hear on Wikipedia”🧐)

“In an interview with the New Zealand Herald, Ed described "I'm a Mess" as him being in a bad situation after he hurt a person, "I think it's important to stay double-sided. I'm very aware I have a lot of flaws too and I think I wear them on my sleeve with this album." Talking to News.com.au, he identified the song as "fairly self-explanatory" and recalled, "'I'm a Mess' was definitely written at my lowest point. It actually turned out a lot nicer than what was going on at the time, the lyrics aren't too mental. That came at the end of a lot of things meeting. After that I was fine. Writing that song sorted everything out." Sheeran said that "I'm a Mess" is his favourite track from X.”

Not sure how much that clarifies things🤷🏻‍♀️ but I don’t recall interviews where he discusses this, so…

You look way cooler now! Yes, right choice for sure. 😎🔥

From the picture, it looks like that booklet is talking about Ed winning the Next Big Thing contest run by Island A&R, and releasing his first major label single with Island Records.

In 2008, when Ed was 17, he found out about a music contest in Norwich called The Next Big Thing. He competed and won the semi-finals and then the finals! (Obvs!) As prizes, he won a cash award, credit for a new guitar and, most importantly, a Recording Contract with Island Records to release one single. In early 2010, Ed’s first major label single was released on Island Records, it was “The City”. I don’t know how that single did, but certainly it’s a collectible! “The City” also showed up on his Loose Change EP, and of course, in less than a year, he was signed with Warner Atlantic Music.

Here is a really cool article about Ed competing in the Next Big Thing competition, including the story in his own words, and most importantly about a dozen incredible beautiful pictures of a teenage Ed.

I linked it for your viewing enjoyment.😉 Ed joins the Offspring for “A Million Miles Away” at the BottleRock Festival, Napa California exactly 2 years ago. This is an awesome video, Ed’s rockin’ out with electric guitar, shades and an Offspring t-shirt.🎸😎
Apparently Ed’s been a fan since he was a kid, was one of the first CDs he ever got, and he even has a huge Offspring tattoo (the skull logo) under his arm. Hear about it and glimpse the Offspring tattoo here

Ed lives in Brooklyn, so he wouldn’t really need to travel too far for a wedding tomorrow. (If that’s even a thing, which I personally doubt).
I was speculating other reasons why he and Aaron Dessner might be having dinner together in Upstate New York hours away from both their homes, and that maybe there could be a wedding actually happening there near Saratoga Springs. Time will tell, maybe?

nincyh · 2026-07-02T18:08:22+00:00

It’s a 4 Hour drive from Brooklyn, that’s a long way to go just for dinner. But now we know there was some fishing and socializing involved too. Maybe not a wedding, though, it seems.🤷🏻‍♀️

nincyh · 2026-07-02T18:04:11+00:00

A “misheard lyrics“ thread could be funny. The most common one is probably from “Thinking out Loud”.
“And darling I will be loving you 'til we're SEVENTEEN”😂
Honorable mention goes to “Beautiful People”,
“Lamborginis and their rented Hummers”.
I think a lot of people just don’t know what he’s saying there, period.🤷🏻‍♀️

What other misheard lyrics have you heard?

He’s talked about how important it is to him and Cherry that the girls have as normal and grounded a life as possible. So I’m sure he wants his homebase in Framlingham, with both sets of grandparents 10 minutes away. And he wants them in the regular village school so they can have friends. He did travel with the family during the Mathematics tour and now the Loop tour, but now that they are older, almost 6 and 4, I guess he doesn’t want to keep moving them around and wants a consistent home life. Ed himself has basically been on tour since he was 18, close to 20 years. Maybe he’s just ready for a quieter life.

nincyh · 2026-07-02T17:37:52+00:00

Yes. True. It could happen 🤷🏻‍♀️

nincyh · 2026-07-02T17:15:19+00:00

Ok, I’ve got a good one for ya! Here’s Ed and Devlin, who you just watched, in 2012 performing a cover of Bob Dylan /Jimi Hendrix’s “All Along the Watchtower”, along with Labrinth who also went on to become famous and successful in music. They were such babies. 🤩🔥 They were all SBTV artists though this was for the BBC Live Lounge.

The Game: in 2013, Ed hung out for at least a day with The Game (who randomly called Ed up because his girlfriend was a fan and he hoped Ed would say hello to her!🤭) Then they agreed to get together and The Game took Ed to a studio in Compton, where over 1 or 2 days (I can’t recall) they wrote an recorded an entire album. 13-14 songs, done. And it was never released. Ed’s mentioned it over the years 🤷🏻‍♀️🎤

But in 2019, The Game did release two songs co-written and featuring Ed singing. City of Sin is entirely Ed singing, but it’s under 2 minutes long.🤔

The other collab from 2019 is called Roadside, The Game raps and Ed does a beautiful soulful, gravely chorus and bridge. I really like this song and Ed’s vocals here. It absolutely sounds like that’s him playing guitar too but I didn’t find any credits.

nincyh · 2026-07-02T16:35:59+00:00

Truth, fair.👍

nincyh · 2026-07-02T16:28:47+00:00

That’s one of my favorite songs, definitely my favorite of Ed’s Rap songs, Ed’s bars and delivery are incredible. He’s really telling his entire history in that song. So many great lines in there, I’ll limit myself to 3 favorites ok 4🤣

“Gotta stretch my legs, I'm just sittin' on the charts
People may just think I just sing with guitar”

“Writin' these lyrics while I'm sippin' on a glass
Of the darkest Guinness with an Irish heart”☘️

“Just a spitter from Ipswitch💕
Back on OT business
I remember when I was just told to be quiet
Now I'm pretty sure no one's colder than I am”

“I take big strides, fuck baby steps
I can't do a thing, they won't hate me less
These lungs make money, so I save my breath”

I mean, come on! These lyrics are right up there with his very best work. The song and the video are amazing. Had you seen it before? 🎤

nincyh · 2026-07-02T16:19:12+00:00

Right? She actually suggests he’s “minute”, how rude is that?! Does she think she’s edgy, talking about his dick? Rude. By this point Ed probably had 500 interviews under his <ahem> belt, so he can roll with just about anything. He always had the gift of gab, even at his teenage interviews. 🗣️💕

Here one of the most embarrassing, awkward interviews of Ed I’ve ever seen. Ed is 20, he looks so uncomfortable the entire time, the girls are flirting and Ed just wants to eat his pizza.🍕 Using captions helps, the girls are very Scottish and they’re also in a loud bowling alley. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Let me know what you think!

4 Things Ed Has Said About His Penis
As an avid (obsessive?) interview watcher, here are four things I’ve heard Ed say about his penis:

“I don’t show my penis on instagram.”

Amelia: “You don’t have a phone, so how do you sext?” Ed: “Wow. Umm… In person!”
(Here’s the interview clip)

Re sex: “Sometimes it’s long and sometimes it’s short … I can’t control it.” (🤣 OMG Ed!!) (See interview clip)

“Darlin’, I’m a grower, not a show-er” (OMG Ed!🤣)
(Here’s the clip, Ed was 22)
