Ed Sheeran-You need me I don't need you

One of Ed Sheeran's first music videos was directed by Emil Nava. This video cost £35,000 to film. His video did not include Ed which was seen by most people as weird. He wasn't included because Nava didn't like his image at that particular time. This led to getting someone else to sign the lyrics to the song as they were too fast to get someone to lip synch.
