Ed recently shared: “I quite like that that song is just having its own life somewhere.

“Me and Justin actually sung that on karaoke together two days ago. He was in Tokyo. It was a really weird night actually, a really weird night.

“We went to a bar called Train Bar and did some shots, then we went to a karaoke bar and sung our own song. He was singing my songs, so I was singing his songs … and then we both sang ‘Love Yourself’.
