Ed nearly changed song title

My pretty little ..er, Sligo girl?

POP superstar Ed Sheeran has revealed that his famous song Galway Girl was nearly named after another Irish town.

The hitmaker thought of changing the name because other music acts had already released songs called Galway Girl.

Ed, 34, who traces his heritage to Wexford and Belfast, considered naming the song either Sligo Girl or Portlaoise Girl.
