Ed Sheeran and Passenger have teamed up to reimagine Passenger’s hit song “Let Her Go,” as a duet with powerful harmonies. This refreshed version debuted on Friday, Nov. 10, as a highlight of the special 10th-anniversary edition of Passenger’s acclaimed 2013 album, All the Little Lights.
Passenger has re-recorded all the tracks on “All the Little Lights” collaborating with well known musicians such as Ed Sheeran, Foy Vance, Gabrielle Aplin, and Nina Nesbitt adding a wealth of musician dynamics to his incredible song writing. The duet with Ed Sheeran received millions of views in the first few days as fans flock to watch two incredible musicians share the stage.
The above video was posted by the young woman with the great voice, Annemarie Schmidt. Under the video she writes: “When an incredibly special concert by your greatest musical role model with only 1500 people becomes an unforgettable memory. I am so thankful for this moment and will carry it in my heart forever. What can I say: ‘Stop the clocks it’s amazing’ .”
Interviewed by DASDING, Annemarie said that she was entirely unaware that Sheeran heard her singing along. She added that she is surprised by how relaxed she comes across in the video and that it was like a movie playing in front of her eyes.
For his part, Ed Sheeran has confirmed that it wasn’t planned at all. “She did an incredible job,” he said. “Thank you for ending this special concert with me, I loved it.” Well done Annemarie Schmidt! And for goodness sake Ed Sheeran, stop being such a nice guy all the time.
