Anyone picked up his CD Back to Bedlam?

It's really quite the time.

Krypton · 02-16-2006, 09:25 PM

ive been listening to that "You're Beautiful" song lately.

not bad, not bad at all.

I love him.

I actually do.

He's my idol, and I would sex him pretty darn hard if the chance arose.

Not only did I grab Back To Bedlam but I grabbed his live Bedlam Sessions thingy on the Internet.

It's basically the audiorip of this DVD.

James Blunt = The Dave Matthews of the UK.

It's a good album. It'll be on the top 100 charts for a while, so I'll probably hate it next week from overplay. But meh.

Gross...That just made me avoid ever attempting to listen to him.

KillerGremlin · 02-16-2006, 10:52 PM

That's harsh.

He's a lot less jammy, I'm just comparing his texture.

GameMaster · 02-16-2006, 11:11 PM

You're Beautiful is overplayed. Haven't heard any of the other songs yet.

I don't really like James Blunt because he's so overplayed in Australia.

Plus, he has an incredibly whiney voice... which is alright for the first time but when it's being played on loop can get a bit brain damaging :S However, I have to say I love the lyrics to 'Goodbye My Lover' as I'm a sucker for sad break up songs... So I guess it's his voice that gets to me the most.

That's my cue to stay as far away as I possibly can.

Oh snap, too mainstream for you?

I find that a good balance of unknown and known makes my ears happy.

Really? What happened to listening to music based on the talent of the artists?

Vampyr · 02-18-2006, 09:11 AM

Comparing him to Dave Matthews is really NOT fair. I hate Dave Matthews but I love James Blunt. He's more like a modern day Elton John.

I have the Back to Bedlam album...and every song on it is just incredible. Not only are the lyrics great, but his voice is angelic. I could sit and listen to him sing without any music.

Does anyone know where I could go to download a live performance of him? I'd like to hear him live.

He begins his tour of the US on March 17...too bad the closest he gets to my house is about 6 or 7 hours away.
