Ed Sheeran invited TikTokers to duet with him – and the results are hilarious
The facility to duet with existing TikTok videos has been given a boost, recently, as the platform went shanty mad.
But it isn’t all about cable-knit sweaters and foot stomping, as Ed Sheeran demonstrated when he posted this snippet from his hit, Afterglow.
@edsheeran Duet me x ##afterglow ##duetme ##fyp
His clip has been viewed more than 47 million times and stitched – used in someone else’s video – more than 7000.
German singer Julia Kautz provided one of the more conventional responses.
@juliakautz #Duett mit @edsheeran Looove this song! ❤️❤️❤️ #afterglow #edsheeran #duet #singing #songwritersoftiktok #musiclover #fyp
Other people, however, had something a little different in mind – and we doubt any of these were what Ed Sheeran was hoping for.
Some played musical instruments.

Everything sounds better with a bit of Thomas.
