Plastic Bag by Ed Sheeran, an accomplished British singer/songwriter. It appears on his seventh studio album Autumn Variations which was released September 29th 2023 and produced by Aaron Dessner of indie rock group The National.
The lyrics to Sheeran's hit single are about feeling hopeless and depressed and seeking escape by drinking and partying on Saturday nights – reflecting his struggles with grief, loneliness and self-doubt. The song features a mournful piano melody with lyrics repeating, “If your love's coming through a plastic bag”.
The chorus plays back these lines for emphasis. Sheeran first performed Autumn Variations live for fans at an unexpected surprise pop-up gig held at their house and recorded for his Autumn Variations live album. Critics and fans have given rave reviews to his lyrics' honesty and vulnerability while some compare its sound with his previous hits like The A Team or Castle on the Hill.
The song is available to stream and download on various platforms, such as Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Genius.
