James Blunt

bluediamond · 01-11-2006, 03:05 PM

Firstly, if ive bored you all about James Blunt before, sorry
Secondly, sorry to Anette for stealing her thunder, just thought id start the ball rolling Netty x :wub:

Actually i realised i have wrote the lyrics and commented on them in another post, so as not to bore you, i did in fact find out who Dorian Grey was lol.

2005 ? the year of James Blunt. With the biggest selling album of the year, the third best-selling single with ?You?re Beautiful? and a coveted MTV Award for Best New Act, James has emerged as the UK?s brightest singer/songwriter talent.

My own personal favourite is Track 5 - Tears & Rain, while many of you would have heard You're Beautifull

If anyone if JKF hasn't had the pleasure of hearing this great album i really think you are missing out on songs that will move you. (thats of course assuming you want to be moved)

Please check it out.
Post your comments on what songs you like from this album if you can.

OMG... best selling album, you're kidding me, sure he might be able to write a decent song, but his voice sucks, it's lazy and rather cold and emotionless. :shudder:

arctic_breeze_0 · 01-11-2006, 06:40 PM

There is no ball to start running dear Dave... Just me that loves some of his songs, mostly because his lyrics say too much about me and where I am at, and how I am. As you know you're beautiful and goodbye my lover is my songs.... even though they depress me these days *sigh* :mellow:

i love the song you're beautiful i listent o it everday

Oh god, I can't stand "You're Beautiful". His voice sounds like a cat stuck in a car door.

My life is brilliant.

[pause]

My life is brilliant.

Thanks, we really cared.

Someone give me a rifle to shoot him. I personally can't stand his whiney voice and I feel the 'I'm Beautiful' is one of the stupidest songs ever. It is the greatest mismatch of lyrics that makes no sense if you know nothing about it's inspiration and carefully listen to the lyrics.

It pains me to hear it and High is no better. I haven't heard the album but I have heard majority of it. I didn't hear the particular song you mentioned Dave but I can't say I will either. It is just eardrum breaking.

But I don't judge those that do like him. That is just my opinion of him.

bluediamond · 01-13-2006, 10:06 AM

some of the comments are harsh, but its a free world and we all like different things.

personally i think someone who has sold as many albums as he has cannot have a voice 'like a cat stuck in a backdoor'

:lalala:

Well, looking at some other artists, I'm becoming very skeptical that success has anything to do with talent. If it did, Jewel would probably be the world leader.

amen to that brother

That cracked me up.

He does kinda sound like that now that it's been said. I have been wracking my brain trying to describe his voice.
:P

I just love winding you up Dave.

On a serious note though, I know plenty of people that like him but clearly with James Blunt, it is a Love/Hate feeling towards him. You're either one or the other.

Like marmite (vegemite). You either love it or hate it.

ShawnShamrock · 02-01-2006, 04:35 PM

That is true and we know it takes very little record sales to become number 1 nowadays.

Actually, to give James Blunt some credit (but not too much), I have heard his song Wisemen and it isn't bad.
