Rita Ora and Ed Sheeran have surprised everyone with a live performance of their collaboration!

It’s no secret that the ‘Shape of You’ superstar co-wrote Rita’s latest single ‘Your Song’ as his background vocals can be heard all over it, however this is the first time they’ve sang the bop together.

The ‘Poison’ singer shared the acoustic take on YouTube, with her taking lead on vocals and Sheeran harmonising throughout while playing on guitar.

View the lyrics

I woke up with a fear this morning
But I can taste you on the tip of my tongue
Alarm without no warning
You're by my side and we've got smoke in our lungs

Last night we were way up, kissing in the back of the cab
And then you say "love, baby, let's go back to my flat"
And when we wake up, never had a feeling like that
I got a reason so man, put that record on again

I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm

I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like that

No fear but I think I'm falling
I'm not proud
But I'm usually the type of girl that would hit and run
No risk so I think I'm all in
When I kiss your lips, through my heartbeat thump

And now we're way up, dancing on the roof of the house
And then we make love, right there on your best friend's couch
And then you say "love, this is what is all about"
So keep on kissing my mouth and put that record on again

I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm

I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like I'm

I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm

I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm

I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like that

The one-take performance showcases the multi-talented Rita’s amazing voice, as she effortlessly sings the song sounding identical to - if not better than - the studio version.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been four months since ‘Your Song’ first premiered because it still sounds so fresh, but we expect that a follow-up single should be dropping soon.

During the summer, Rita debuted a brand new song ‘Girls’ with Charli XCX and RAYE that is rumoured to be the second single.

Until then…
