Ed Sheeran was one of the big winners alongside Pharrell Williams at last night's BBC Music Awards.
Picking up the huge gong for British Artist Of The Year, Ed Sheeran couldn't have been happier.
Speaking on acceptance of the award he said: "I just wanna say a massive thank you to everyone whose bought a record, bought a ticket, streamed on YouTube, streamed on Spotify... I don't know if anyone here has, but thank you so much.
"Radio 1 and 1Xtra were the first people to ever play [my music] and that broke everything through for me. BBC have been such big supporters so I wanna say a massive thank you to them."
Meanwhile, Pharrell accepted two prizes for Song Of The Year and International Artist Of The Year via a live satellite link from Los Angeles, and praised the UK for helping lift him to "unimaginable heights".
Accepting the award he gushed: "The UK has always been amazing to me and so many other artists who just want to do different things... Those things happen in the UK because you love music, first and foremost.
"It's just been an amazing experience and a great journey. I just want to say thank you to BBC, Radio 1, Radio 2, 1Xtra and the countless amazing English fans that have just lifted my life to unimaginable heights. Thank you so much."
He also dedicated the track which won Song Of The Year - 'Happy' - to his British fans.
"I often say in interviews: the YouTube views that we get or the purchases that are made on our songs. The decision to stream the songs is not ours, as writers and producers, we are beholding to what the audience thinks and what you guys want to do.
"So when you say 'Song of the Year', it's not really my award, it's your award. As I said before, the folks in the UK have just been so incredibly generous ... Again, I wanna say thank you to everyone and their great nation."
The show saw performances from some of the biggest artists in the world including One Direction and Coldplay, ending with a collaboration between Tom Jones and Paloma Faith who were joined by a 200-strong choir for their rendition of 'God Only Knows'.
