“Beautiful People” is the third promotional single from Ed Sheeran’s No.6 Collaborations Project. The track 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."

Sheeran shared a short clip via Instagram on June 27, 2019, letting fans know that the video will drop at 3 a.m. ET Friday, three hours after the song’s midnight release.
