naty Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 i don't like him either. but has he a new single? because "you're beautiful" sucks, i can't hear it anymore, just annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintcity Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Why does everyone have such strong negative feelings toward him? I'm just wondering... I've only heard that song "You're Beautiful" and granted, it is kind of unoriginal and repetitive, but it doesn't inspire hate I don't think. :lol: He seems like a decent guy. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ondes Martenot Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 i bought his album, and i was disappointed it's boring... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marisa Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Heard the song and at first hated it. But then it got me all emotional, so I really like it now. He was on Saturday Night Live last night. And he had the most INTENSE eyes. He would not look away from the camera. I was impressed. and whoever it was that mentioned Damien Rice......yes he is an excellent artist. B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L music. totally wrenches my heart, but I can't ever stop listening to O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLo Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 i like james blunt and i agree with u Marisa, hes got crazy intense eyes. he was at a borders on friday night in NYC. (since he was around for SNL) and he gave a free performance and i got him to sign my CD! i took a bunch of burry pics and some videos too :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintcity Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Yeah, he looked so good on SNL last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Keane- Fan Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 So far, I have only heard You're Beautiful and Goodbye my Lover after his performance yesterday night on SNL. I have heard snipets of You're Beautiful from Vh1 and such, but... WOW..WoW..WOW!! He is amazing and his voice is so beautiful. I will definitely be buying his CD. I heard the 30 second clips of the rest of his album on Itunes.. JAMES BLUNT!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Keane- Fan Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 yeah i like David Gray's stuff its a shame he is not playing Babylon no more but i suppose you can sing a song one too many times. just want to keep the discussion going what exactly is the pivotal reason or thing that made James Blunt a no no for you guys :huh: i heard some of his stuff on AOL so i haven't heard the full album, i was planning on buying it but now ... i don't know.... :/ Wow.. I really love discussing music online with intelligent people. LOL.. People that I associate with listen to all songs I find CRAP. David Gray is excellent.. "Please Forgive Me" is a great song.. I can't stop listening to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivanneth Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Well' date=' i know that for a lot of people he's just making fine music, but nothing special.[/quote'] I do agree with you there...even though I really like his album! For being his first album, I would think that it wouldn't be extremely extraordinary...like one or two songs are exceptional - but, the way I see it, it's like every band in a way when they put out their first CD. It could be really great and a lot of people can like it, then they can just progressively get better (and I think that James Blunt will get a whole lot better). Or some people don't really take much liking to it... But in the case of James Blunt...(dare I say? lol) "we can expect great things" from him soon... Like, he has talent! But I think he just needs to push a little more further with his it... Again...that's just what I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marisa Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 However, it was the third single "You're Beautiful" that became James' breakout hit. The song debuted at #12 in the UK, and demonstrated a rare trend of upward mobility on the UK charts, rising all the way to the #1 position, six weeks after its debut. The song also received massive airplay in the UK which was able to propel Back To Bedlam to #1 on the albums chart, with the special feat of unseating the record-breaking album X & Y by Coldplay from the pole position. interesting. he must be good, if he took out Coldplay. Seems like quite a feat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainOats Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 Back To Bedlam is one of my favorite albums of the year. I bought it over the summer when I was in Italy on vacation. It's only just now blowing up in the US- I'm so happy to see him having success here. I think he's going to the biggest breakout artist in the States in 2006... the same way he was in the UK in 2005. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flor* Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 well, i have listened to it some more times, and now i can say it isn't disappointing at all.. the perfect cd to listen when you're sad.. such as Dido.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starryxnitez Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 i like his stuff. pretty depressing. anyways, he's got funny facial expressions, more like he doesnt blink much. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shesawsparks Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I did like You're Beautiful when i first heard it. Then for me it was ruined cos it kept getting played absolutely everywhere. Anyway, my sister has his album and she lent it to me and i have to say that by about track 4 i was bored. Anyway, i decided to listen to the rest of it anyway to see if it got any better - it didn't. One of the most disappointing albums i've heard all year i'm afraid :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flor* Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 your beautiful is his thrid single?? i didn't know that!! i thought it was his first... now i understand why in the cd said 'including his hits wisemen and high'... :embarrased: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Grace Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 i really like james blunt and i'm not annoyed by 'you're beautiful' yet. i think that 'back to bedlam' is an awesome record. his lyrics are great and it's fun to listen to his voice (kinda reminds me of adam levine [maroon 5]) and james is quite a cute bloke, isn't he?!
