The English pop-rock singer/songwriter's first hits compilation, +-=%x Tour Collection gathers two dozen of Ed Sheeran's biggest tracks in one easy package. Reaching all the way back to his 2011 debut single, "The A Team," from his first album, +, the set (also known as The Mathematics Tour Collection) continues chronologically through his career and each hit-filled studio album (including his non-arithmetically titled No. 6 Collaborations Project).
