| Ed Sheeran – Grade 8 Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
I love this song, but I was a bit puzzled by the phrasing "like YOU were a grade 8." As an American my best guess at what he was getting at was saying she made him feel like a love struck teenager/pre-teen again. But then it should be something like "like WE were IN grade 8." I had a feeling it was some British term, so I googled it, apparently in the UK music exams are graded on a scale from 1 to 8, 8 being the best, and whats required to enter a music college. Really a much more awesome analogy than I originally thought. |

I never knew what he meant by "Jumbo cross the water" I did a definition search on Jumbo to see if there was some unknown second meaning. And well it not another meaning but it can be short for 'jumbo jet.' (another dash of kidyness as pointed out by others) Just a little tidbit for those of you who, like me, never quite got that phrase |
