Ed Sheeran's song 'Small Bump' has been used by pro-life campaigners in Ireland ahead of the upcoming referendum on repealing the Eighth Amendment, and he's not too pleased about it.

The singer has distanced himself from the campaign and confirmed that he did not give permission for the song to be used.

He also stated that the campaign "doesn't reflect what the song is about."

The song featured on Sheeran's debut album '+' in 2012, and he previously stated that it was written in honour of a close friend who had experienced a still-birth.

John Caddell and Nadine O'Regan discussed this and more in our weekly music slot, including the Rolling Stones concert at Croke Park.
