Your beautiful was like one of those pop songs that all record companys do they put out the weak sappy stuff first cause it sells most. Its kinda like what they did with John mayer. His first album was all pop stuff and then when he was let go his real musical talent was shown.
James is great . Though I think I like only 2 of his songs,this and You're Beautiful (No offence , only heard these ) And he can sing EXACTLY (Voice,tune,same. (Lyrics maybe forget?) ) And I am chinese. I support Chinese Pop. A lot can't sing exactly like in the real CD song. Out of tune , etc. do not know how to compose bla bla. However , I'll support James and Chinese Pop (:
Don't know how anyone can say this guy is shit when he writes, sings and plays all his own instruments!! The guy is a proper talent!! Not like all the other rubbish in the charts these days!! Why watch the link in the first place dickhead!! Spend your time better and stop writing crap eh!!..
i like james, but i dont know if thats all entirely true about him writing all his own stuff, recording the instruments etc. hes worked with some of the best writers in the world. and he shares a manager with elton john.
I think he is an entertaining performer, his voice is great, it has great emotion and is different. He has plenty of critics but its the same for any musician, if you don't like it, then don't listen to it :-)
to sarapppp: same here. after reading the article in rolling stone mag., i was depressed. 4 me his songs r so deep & in the interview he seemed so shallow...still i luv his music :)
Put it this way!, All you people who are bagging James Blunt need to take a good hard look at yourselves!.. He is one of the few musicians left who actually play and sing like the record LIVE! YES LIVE!.. I know that's hard for alot of you new wave noise listeners to understand with all this electro pop, disco crap around. Long live the LIVE artist/s. What a great TIGHT band one of a few left.
ive heard some fuckin shit in my time.but that was utter bollox..he shud go back in the army and kill people ,,it would be a lot more humane than making innocent people suffer his dreadfull music..
believe me.. you can never be even as closely as good as james "the great" blunt. he is a professional and he is damn good at it.. you can never be as him, not even in your life.. so dont be jelous.. suck it up looser
this is nothing like american pie. alot quicker, has a drum beat for a start. chorus is nothing like don mcleans. ur a twat for saying they r similar.
So disappointed that "Breathe" wasnt on his new album. This song is good but not his best. I haven't downloaded the whole album yet so I'll reserve judgement. I loved his last album and saw him in concert. He's an awesome singer/songwriter.
to arabwamuslim: i wouldn't exactly describ 'beautiful' as decent, & don't think JB's intentions were 2 make something similiar 2 DM's am. pie(that song was an epic!?!) but i do appreciate JB 4 writing songs like "no bravery" & "same mistake"which 4 me have a bigger scope & aren't as self-centered :)
im afaird all the drink hes had in the last 2 years since is big hits with back to bedlam has damaged his voice and he can no longer do some of the high notes. listen to the crakleing...
love it
