Ed Sheeran belts ‘Thinking Out Loud’ while riding Citi Bike through Brooklyn ahead of ‘X’ anniversary concert
He’s cycling through the hits.
Four-time Grammy Award-winning singer Ed Sheeran gave Brooklynites an impromptu concert Wednesday when he belted his tune “Thinking Out Loud” while cruising around on a Citi Bike.
The 33-year-old pop star — who’s in town to play an anniversary show at Barclays Center Wednesday night — shared footage of himself and a group of friends harmonizing as they pedaled along the Willoughby Avenue bike lane.
“Pedestrians in NY rn,” the musician tweeted, with two eyes-wide-open emojis.
Sporting sunglasses and pink sneakers, Sheeran is shown in the footage grinning and wailing, “Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars” as he rolls by a row of brownstones.
A friend can be heard in the background hollering, “Whooo!” as folks on the sidewalk stare.
“Ride by my job please,” one observer tweeted, while another was quick to point out the singer-songwriter wasn’t wearing a helmet.
The city’s Department of Transportation retweeted the “Shape of You” singer’s video, adding the location of the croon-and-cruise.
Sheeran will play a concert to celebrate the tenth anniversary of his sophomore album “X” at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center at 7 p.m.
The album featured smash hits such as “Sing,” “Don’t,” “Thinking Out Loud,” “Bloodstream” and “Photograph.”
