...the cunt. No sorry, to be rude but this man is lamer than David Gray! Bland lyrics- "You're beautiful,beautiful, beautiful, it's true", bland music, bland image...why does Britain constantly buy this middle-of-the-road tripe? It's the same with Coldplay, Embrace,Starsailor, Keane, Travis...the list is endless. People are buying these records. They all sound the fucking same. And...and breathe...calm. sorry i'm just angry at the lack of channel 5 porn last night and the amount of crappy drivel shown at the Isle of Wight festival (courtesy of ITV).

orry i'm just angry at the lack of channel 5 porn last night and the amount of crappy drivel shown at the Isle of Wight festival (courtesy of ITV).

You're not alone there. C'mon Five, sort it out!

And on the original topic - he bores me to tears. The only slight redeeming factor he has is a passing vocal resemblance to Rod Stewart. Who is obviously a musical God.

The other night, I went out with a mate from Norwich who has a lady-friend in Battersea. She has a flatmate, who my mate described as 'really cool, she's a cool indie chick'. We went back to my mate's bird's flat, the four of us, good banter, having a laugh. We got in. 'Cool indie chick' got up to put on some music. She put in THE NEW TURIN BRAKES ALBUM. For fucks sake. I mentioned that I didn't like it. So she put on the JAMES FUCKING BLUNT ALBUM. What is wrong with people these days?!? I asked her, in my comical sarcastic drunk manner if she had anything 'Y'know, a bit more BLAND'. She got my sarcastic drift, and went for something with more substance. And proceeded to put on ATHLETE. At this point I gave in with the world, and threw myself head first into a flock of starlings with razor blades for wings.

Some people.

Re: James Blunt

What a spectacular reaction to lame lady-boy indie crap! Lucky that razor-winged flock happened to be flying by at that moment, I hear they are pretty rare.

I like the TV advert in which Blunt is buried up to neck in sand. To think, they had a chance to leave him there / tie an incontinent dog's leash to his nose / pogo-stick up and down on his forehead / etc.

Re: James Blunt

HAHAHA!!! That's fucking funny. See, most guys would humour a lady, but not be sarcastic to them...that way insuring a shag, but I admire your honesty. Yes, Athlete, don't get me started. I hung my head in shame as I went to HMV to buy my mum the new album for her birthday. I eagerly told the sales man "It's not for me!"...thinking he might have some music taste. Instead he said "This album is album of the year!Brilliant". Sack the bastard.

Re: James Blunt

Humour her? Pah. How dare she assault my ears. I wanted late night tunes to sit back and enjoy, not songs that make me ANGRY. She needed to be told. She could have been listening to those songs forever, were it not for me. I like to think I've done a little bit to help her realise that SHE HAS SHIT TASTE IN MUSIC.

I did genuinely leave very soon after it, and found myself stranded in Battersea at 3am with no cash on me (after I'd paid for the cab back to the flat - what a mistake to make) and no night buses anywhere in sight. It took me over an hour to walk back to Victoria. So, BLUNT. Thanks to your bland bullshit, I GOT BLISTERS. Another reason to hate the bland cunt. Grrr.

He can't be any worse than Counting Crows. Think I'll have to track down some of his stuff, I'm bound to like it.

Re: James Blunt

Is James Blunt's current single the one with a video with him on a beach losing his clothes? I've never actually heard the song, noly seen the video at the gym on the screens in front of the treadmills. I can never quite see the caption of which artist it is but I suspect that from the overwrought posturing disaplyed in the aforementioned video, it may well be this fellow.

Seriously though, it's like somebody extracted the most boring parts of Damien Rice and David Gray, ate it, and then shit it on to a cd.

Clunt... hehehe.

Re: James Blunt

Re: James Blunt

He is fairly boring. Interesting voice though.

Bet he had the piss taken out of him in the Army for it...

Re: James Blunt

i dont think you can compare something as shite and Maroon5 like to Keane and Coldplay. If Chris Martin wrote and sang a song like this James Blunt shite then Coldplay wouldnt be as popular as they are.

Re: James Blunt

I agree about the James Blunt thing . He is a bed wetting fanny . That beautiful song makes me want to spew, but...........


The First Coldplay album is genius. Yes, there is a lot of shit out there that sounds the same and Coldplays current single is pretty lame and nothing original , but I still think there first album shows amazing song writing.

Anyway. James Blunt = Cunt

Re: James Blunt

His voice is kind of off isn't it. He's dull dull guff. He hardly looked convinced by himself on Jools Holland. Rufus Wainwright was there sounding lovely so meh.

Re: James Blunt

It's all record company stuff, I saw him third down on the bill supporting someone less than six months ago, then suddenly he's on Johnathon Ross and there's fucking adverts for him everywhere and now his single is number 5.
