Ed Sheeran and Khalid come together on a soulful inspiring song titled “Beautiful People”.
The song is about remaining true to yourself and not trying to become one of those so-called “beautiful people” obsessed with material things and stature.
It opens with pretty vocal harmonies: “We are, we are, we are” floats over a winsome melody and handclap-enhanced rhythms.
Sheeran and Khalid each sing a verse about uncomfortable social situations, where a person can feel “surrounded but still alone.” “We don’t fit in well/We are just ourselves.”
