NO BRAVERY
I know I've been posting like crazy about this guy but I can't help myself. Yes, I'm talking about James Blunt again! I've been listening to this CD non stop for 2 days now. His strength of passion is what has me so excited. I see his songs as both uplifting and powerfully tragic. This guy feels his music. And, he's like the boy next door. And, a little swearing in a British accent is, well as I've described him... Hot. Gawd, I'm so revved about this!
If this is a taster I can't wait to see what's next. I just hope his contract doesn't put a ridiculous deadline on his next CD. You just can't force creativity. This is where you wish the great artists didn't get famous and you could secretly enjoy years of their music in the best form.
I personally think his best song on this CD is "No Bravery" it is absolutely fantastic and haunting. The lyrics are intense. His singing has an honest rawness to it, it's beautiful. The song carries the harsh reality of the evils of war He wrote this song while stationed in Kosovo. If people weren't scared to face what is really going on right now by our own government's hand you'd probably hear this song played on the radio as much as "Beautiful" is.
James tour in America, like now!
