Mulligan Visits Eddie

This song was written according to Ed’s grandparent’s true story. I am really moved by their love story. It's like Romeo and Juliet romance. Where's my Nancy?

"Nancy Mulligan" is a lively, storytelling track from Ed Sheeran's third album, ÷. It tells the love story of his grandparents, William Sheeran and Nancy Mulligan, who fell in love and married despite religious and cultural differences in Ireland. The upbeat rhythm and traditional Irish instrumentation make it a fan favorite and an ode to Sheeran's roots. #BehindtheMusic

I'm not a big fan of Irish music, but nancy mulligan has something that makes me want to move around, it's a happy and fun song, perfect for livening up any party.

when i heard featuring mark hoppus, i felt like hot mulligan really captured the struggle of putting on a brave face when things are falling apart. it hit home for me, as someone who's had to grin and bear it through some tough times.
