Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift continue their story of “Everything Has Changed” with “The Joker And The Queen” sequel with lookalike actors, nearly ten years later.
Really, “Everything Has Changed”. Ed Sheeran’s remix of “The Joker and the Queen,” which features Taylor Swift, was released on Thursday, and the music video continues the plot of the pop star’s first collaboration.
Sheeran and Swift’s fictitious offering (who look quite similar to the singers) fall in love in elementary school in the 2013 video for “Everything Has Changed”, a track from Swift’s 2012 album Red. The same actors reprise their roles over ten years later, this time as college students at various schools as they anticipate a life together as they enter adulthood.
In the Chorus, Sheeran sings “And I know you could fall for a thousand kings/And hearts that would give you a diamond ring.” “When I fold, you see the best in me/The joker and the queen.”
The young couple in the music video reminisces about their childhood while they go through their college life. The pair finally reunites in their hometown, where they first met, by the end of the video.
The song, which first debuted on Sheeran’s album = in 2021, marks the fourth collaboration between the two pop powerhouses. “Me and Taylor first met and wrote + recorded our first song together in 2012, ten years ago now, I’m so so honored to have her on this song,” Sheeran tweeted after the video premiered. He added, “Not only is she the best singer/songwriter in the world but she’s also a very close friend, I’m very lucky to have her in my life.”
“The Joker And the Queen featuring my good friend @taylorswift is out this Friday,” Sheeran said on Instagram on Wednesday, offering a 30-second teaser of Swift’s contribution to the duet. In a red carpet interview with LADBible at the Brits on Tuesday, the “Shape Of You” singer said collaboration with Swift was on the way, throwing fans into a frenzy. He said, “It comes out Friday and it’s with Taylor Swift.”
After he uploaded a photo of a CD booklet with a blonde woman striking an eerie likeness to Swift on a playing card, Swifties and Sheeran stans were quick to note that Swift might be joining the singer for a remix of the Famous track. Sheeran captioned the shot, “Signing some CDs for something coming in a bit, keep an eye out,” while fans went crazy in the comments.
The music titans and longtime friends have previously collaborated on multiple occasions. Sheeran was also featured on the single “Run” from Taylor’s Version of Red.
