Ed Sheeran opened The BRIT Awards with Mastercard ceremony at London’s The O2 last night (8th February) with a surprise collaboration with Bring Me The Horizon.

Flanked by all five members of Bring Me The Horizon, the acoustic pop troubadour launched into a typically stripped back version of ‘Bad Habits’ before the song built into an alt metal behemoth.

The performance saw a dapper looking, fully suited Oli Sykes trade vocals with Sheeran before unleashing some trademark screams towards the end of the track.

Watch Ed Sheeran and Bring Me The Horizon perform ‘Bad Habits’:

Ed Sheeran is a keen rock aficionado, and as Kerrang! Radio exclusively reported last summer, he’s been talking to his fellow Suffolk natives Cradle of Filth about a possible collaboration.

Following Jack Whitehall's departure, comedian Mo Gilligan hosted The BRIT Awards show, which saw some huge performances on the night from artists such as Liam Gallagher, Dave, Sam Fender and Rising Star winner Holly Humberstone.

Back in January, Bring Me The Horizon released an instrumental cover of ‘Moon Over The Castle’, which is the theme from PlayStation game Gran Turismo. It’s lifted from the soundtrack to Gran Turismo 7, which lands on 4th March.
