Ed Sheeran joined James Corden on Tuesday's Late Late Show for that thing people like involving automobiles and karaoke.

Naturally, their first karaoke selection was Sheeran's own "Shape of You." After a play-by-play account of that hilarious Justin Bieber x golf story, Sheeran and Corden ran through Bieber's "Love Yourself" and One Direction's "What Makes You Beautiful."

The two also discussed Sheeran's aversion to the practice of cellular communication. Additionally, if watching Sheeran fit 55 Maltesers chocolates in his mouth is something you were hoping to see, then you're in luck:

Carpool Karaoke: The Series, Apple Music's inevitable spin-off of the popular Late Late Show segment, recently had its release pushed back from April to Aug. 8. The series will feature a variety of celebrity pairings including Miley and the entire Cyrus family, LeBron James and Corden, and Will Smith and Corden. New episodes will premiere on Apple Music each Tuesday.

Corden is doing three London-based episodes of Late Late Show this week. In a clip shared to YouTube, Corden spoke on the recent London attack. "Trying to find the right words to say is impossible because there are none," Corden said. "But this time it felt incredibly close to home."
