Penguins - Ed Sheeran - MP3 instrumental karaoke

In 2019, English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran starred as himself in Danny Boyle's musical rom-com, Yesterday. Largely revolving around the idea of an alternate reality where nobody except the main character has ever heard of The Beatles, the film features a songwriting contest between Ed Sheeran and Jack Malik (played by Himesh Patel), who ends up beating the British pop star's original song "Penguins" with a rendition of "The Long and Winding Road." Written by Ed Sheeran and frequent collaborator Johnny McDaid a few years earlier before the film's theatrical release, "Penguins" remained one of the singer-songwriter's most elusive songs until its first appearance on the Silver Screen. Driven forward by gentle acoustic guitar plucking and an understated kick drum, the track chronicles the beginning of a relationship destined to fail, using the aquatic flightless bird as a metaphor for an ill-fated relationship. In 2022, "Penguins" was included in the deluxe edition of Ed Sheeran's fifth studio album, =.
