He said so during "Carpool Karaoke" with comedian-actor James Corden for his TV show "The Late Late Show with James Corden".

"I was so nervous about coming on this show because I couldn't see what was funny about me singing my songs. As soon as I took out my guitar, it was funny," Sheeran said on the show, reports dailymail.co.uk.

"As a person I can have conversation and be personable, but musically if you stand me there with a microphone (without a guitar) I feel a bit naked but I've been glued to this guitar since I was like 11.

At the end of 2015, he shut off his social accounts, got rid of his phone, and headed to far-off places. 

"I travelled to places that I'd been to on tour but never really got a chance to see, like Japan, as well as places that I'd never been but always wanted to, like Ghana," he told ew.com. 

"It was incredible. I felt totally refreshed and rejuvenated." 

He says the benefit was for both him and his fans. 

"I came back even more driven than the last album, (which) I pretty much went straight into from my first without any break," he said.
