Sheeran said that the song was "inspired by the whole movie, just wanting to be sad, yet euphoric and lift people a little bit."[2] The film, about a teenager dying of cancer who falls in love with another teen cancer patient, deals with the importance of love in the face of death.[3]
In 2014, Sheeran would join singer Christina Grimmie for a famous duet of the song on the season 6 finale of The Voice.[4]
The music video was premiered on YouTube on 9 May 2014.[5] The video does not feature any new footage from the movie, but it does feature fan-submitted messages of encouragement such as "Everything is beautiful" and "You are not a burden".[6]
Jackie Evancho released a single and corresponding video covering the song in August 2015.[7][8]
