Comment: Ed’s album is pretty darn good, but it’s not great, and if he doesn’t steady the product who knows what the next one will bring. Performance Wise, the numbers will make your eyes water: 57,000 physical sales, 18,000 downloads and 70.2 million track streams. That adds up to 125K album equivalent units, and you can get to the top of the US Billboard 200 with 75K AEUs. Impressed yet? The US is 40 times larger than the UK.
