This is me as well. I have no idea who Ed Sheeran even is, and don't really care. In the books, soldiers do sing. I thought Arya coming upon some soldiers who were so common, singing to entertain themselves, then being actually legitimately kind to her, was actually a very nice scene. You get the feeling she is surprised to find people who aren't out to rape and murder a stranger. She was moved by those boys. It softened her edges for a few moments (only a few!)
The scene was just a scene, a fairly nice one, to me. I had no idea there was even controversy about it. But I don't read GoT news to keep myself spoiler free. I guess if people know this Ed Sheeran fellow, it changes how they see that scene.
