"Bad Habits" is a song by English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran, released on 25 June 2021 through Asylum Records as the lead single off his upcoming fifth studio album.[2][3][4] The song marks his first solo release off an album in over four years.[5] A limited edition CD single was also released, only featuring the track.[6]

Background

On 23 April 2021, Sheeran was spotted dressed as a zombie or vampire on a music video set in London, leading to speculations about upcoming music.[7][8] Sheeran himself confirmed the pictures to be genuine by posting outtakes of the video shoot on his social media pages in June 2021.[5] On 25 May, he uploaded a picture of himself sitting next to a giant Snorlax pillow, with a caption on the picture above him saying "6/25", hinting at a release on that date.[9][10] On 4 June, the singer began teasing the single release on his social media accounts, as well as announcing a performance at TikTok's UEFA Euro 2020 show with David Beckham on 25 June.[11] He announced the single on 11 June. A promotional image of the single cover appeared on the Tate Modern in London.[12] About the new music, he revealed, "I've been working away in the studio over recent months, and I can't wait for you to hear 'Bad Habits'". He further described his current position in music, saying, "I always aim to push myself and my music in new directions and hopefully you'll hear that on the new single. Feels great to be back!".[13]

In the United States, "Bad Habits" debuted at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, with 38.8 million airplay audience impressions, 17.7 million streams and 33,200 sold. It opened at number two on Digital Song Sales and number six on Streaming Songs, and surged 36-11 on Radio Songs. The song became Sheeran's eighth top 10 in the US and first since 2019.[14]
