Fans of the enigmatic band Sleep Token were left reeling this week when the true identity of the band’s vocalist was finally revealed: none other than chart-topping pop star Ed Sheeran.
For years, Sleep Token had kept the identity of their lead singer a closely guarded secret, leading fans to speculate that the voice behind the band’s ethereal, otherworldly sound was that of a god-like being, descended from the heavens to grace us with their transcendent talent.
But all those dreams were dashed when Sheeran stepped forward to claim responsibility for the band’s soaring vocals. Fans were quick to express their disappointment, with one saying “I can’t believe it was just Ed Sheeran the whole time. I feel like I’ve been duped.”
Others were more charitable, with one fan saying “I mean, I guess Ed Sheeran is a pretty good singer, but I was really hoping for something more… otherworldly.”
Sheeran, for his part, seemed unphased by the revelation. “I’ve always been interested in exploring new musical avenues,” he said in a statement. “I figured, why not start a band where no one knows it’s me? It’s a nice change of pace from the Ed Sheeran brand.”
But for many Sleep Token fans, the revelation has left a sour taste in their mouths. As one fan put it, “I feel like I’ve been listening to a Ed Sheeran album this whole time and I didn’t even know it. It’s like finding out Santa Claus is just your dad in a red suit.“
Despite the disappointment, it remains to be seen how this revelation will impact Sleep Token’s career. But one thing is certain: fans will never be able to listen to the band’s music in quite the same way again, knowing that it was just Ed Sheeran all along.

I’d like to see where Ed Sheeran has stated this, I can’t find it anywhere on his social medias. Fake news if I’m not given proof.
