"So I’ll sing hallelujah / you were an angel in the shape of my mum.” This is Ed’s song, "Supermarket Flowers," off of his 2017 album Divide and it is a song of bereavement and tribute.

After listening to the emotional delivery and honest lyrics, people couldn’t help but wonder what happened to his mother, someone who is thought to be referenced throughout the song. 

It’s easy to assume from the lyrics that she had passed away.
