Ed Sheeran and Elton John's Christmas song is dropping this week
Ed Sheeran has confirmed that his Christmas song with Elton John, titled "Merry Christmas", is arriving later this week.
Sheeran first revealed that he was teaming up with longtime friend Elton John on a Christmas single this year in October, and this morning (29 November) he shared an announcement video on socials revealing the release date and title of their festive collaboration.
The song, titled "Merry Christmas", is arriving later this week, and according to Sheeran's written messages in the announcement video, he wrote the chorus for the song on the same day that Elton John reached out about collaborating on a Christmas song.
Sheeran also confirmed that the song has "a lot" of sleigh bells.
