Ed Sheeran's escalating row with Macklemore has inspired an unlikely musical parody, with Australian satirical publication The Chaser inventing a fictional Sheeran song called 'Thinking Out Silent' to mock the fallout from the rapper's removal from the US tour.
Published on 15 September, the satirical piece imagines a revamped version of Sheeran's 2014 hit 'Thinking Out Loud,' with the fictional song taking aim at the controversy over Macklemore's pro-Palestinian remarks, stadium owners and the singer's response to the tour fallout. It is not a genuine Ed Sheeran song release.
