Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran Finally Give “Repeat It” the Release It Deserves

Some songs take the long way around. “Repeat It” has been floating through the Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran universe for more than a decade, and now that it is finally out on STMPD RCRDS, it lands with the kind of payoff fans have been waiting on for years.

The history behind it is half the story. Ed first talked about the track back in 2014, Garrix premiered it at Ultra in 2015, and ever since then it has lived in that frustrating space between rumor, live staple, and unfinished promise. The rollout even had a little fun with that delay, with billboards popping up that basically begged Ed to let the song out already.

The release itself feels soft at first, then bigger as it opens up. A light guitar line carries the start, Ed’s voice comes in with that familiar ache, and Garrix keeps everything moving underneath with a clean, driving pulse that gives the song just enough lift without stepping on the emotion.

That balance is what makes it work. It still feels intimate, but it also has enough scale to live in a festival set, which is probably why fans have held onto it for this long. After all the waiting, “Repeat It” does not feel overdue, it feels earned.
