Ed Sheeran - Amazing (Fan Created Music Video) [Australia]

“Given this life changing opportunity to make a music video for Ed Sheeran, I decided to take inspiration from Ed’s inspiration for “Autumn Variations”, and make this video for “Amazing” my most personal project, ever. Shooting was over 5 days total, our scenes were mostly captured in the area I grew up (Georges River Council), where my parents still live. They actually ended up giving up their entire home for the duration of filming, and I somehow kept the entire process a secret from them. In fact, we cheated all interior scenes in the video to be shot in their house. It wasn’t until our final day of filming that I broke the news to them of who the video was for, and in front of the cast and crew, I dedicated the entire project to them. What makes us human is the texture of imperfection. Struggle comes in many forms. Some of it is hidden, but sometimes we get to share these moments with a witness. As the third track on “Autumn Variations”, this video for “Amazing” carries the stories of 3 characters. I can’t help but feel uplifted by the hope this song carries, so despite the adversities, the determination within these 3 keeps them afloat. I’m extremely grateful to everyone that was involved; this production was about as close as it gets to a community based video. I hope everyone enjoys the video as much as I enjoyed making it.“ - Elder Listen to the new album ’Autumn Variations’, out now: Subscribe to Ed’s channel: Follow Ed on...

I’m dragging my feet trying to breathe again Yeah I’m trying to feel amazing Yeah but I can’t get out of my way Yeah wish I could feel amazing But this is all that I can feel today I’m trying to think at the same time trying to say something Can’t switch off my brain so don’t meditate Every time I crack a smile I can sense another tear coming That’s kinda weird but what can I say I know I’m on the edge and one push of the wind Will send me flying deep into the unknown I guess this is the time to let em all in Coz nothing is worse than when you hit the low Yeah I’m trying to feel amazing Yeah but I can’t get out of my way Yeah wish I could feel amazing But this is all that I can feel today Yeah this is all that I can feel today
