Ed Sheeran adorably covers Limp Bizkit, Iron Maiden on 'Fallon'
(Warning: explicit language)
(yes, Ed Sheeran is capable of cursing)
Quick - think of the most metal musician you know.
Got one?
Well, it's probably not this guy:

But Ed Sheeran is the first person to make fun of himself, and he stopped by Fallon last night to spoof his guy-with-an-acoustic-guitar status in the best way possible — by playing metal songs.
The skit is an infomercial for "Ed Sheeran Sings: Heavy Metal," a joke album that we need to be real. And, just because, Sheeran also plays a mean Ty Dolla $igh cover.
So if your own Venn diagram of musical tastes includes both Limp Bizkit, '80s hair metal and soft, soothing British acoustic rock, this video is for you.
Stay metal, Ed!
