[Título: In A Little While]

(U2 cover)

In a little while
Surely you'll be mine
In a little while I'll be there

In a little while
This hurt will hurt no more
I'll be home, love

When the night takes a deep breath
And the daylight has no end
If I crawl, if I come crawling home
Will you be there

In a little while
I won't be blown by every breeze
Friday night running
To Sunday on my knees

That girl, that girl
She's mine
And I've know her since

Since she was a little girl
With Spanish eyes
Oh, when I saw her
In a pram they pushed her by

My, how you've grown
Well it's been
It's been a little while

Slow down my bleeding heart
A man dreams one day to fly
A man takes a rocketship into the sky
He lives on star that's dying in the night
And follows in the trail
The scatter of light

Turn it on
Turn it on
You turn me on

Slow down my bleeding heart
Slowly, slowly love
Slow down my bleeding heart
Slowly, slowly love
Slow down my beating heart
Slowly, slowly love.

«No me gusta el culto a la fama»

Dos años después de colocar once millones de copias, el autor de 'You're beautiful' subraya ahora su sensibilidad adulta y pop con 'All the lost souls', su nuevo disco.

Dejando atrás una carrera militar forzada por una familia de amplia tradición castrense, el británico James Blunt emergió hace algo más de dos años con 'Back to Bedlam', un álbum avalado por el sello Custard de Linda Perry (ex 4 Non Blondes y compositora para Christina Aguilera, Pink o Gwen Stefani), que acabó dando a conocer a todo el mundo a este melifluo cantautor británico apadrinado por Elton John. Se supo entonces que este compositor, cantante y músico (toca el piano y la guitarra) capitaneó con sólo 25 años tropas británicas en Kosovo e Irak mientras cultivaba casi secretamente su vocación musical.

Nacido en un hospital militar en Hampshire, fue enviado con siete años a una escuela de aviación. Antes de acabar en el ejército, estudio ingeniería y sociología en la universidad pero asegura que siempre tuvo claro que lo suyo era la música. De hecho comenzó con el piano a los siete y a los 14 se peleaba con la guitarra en una voluntariosa banda de versiones. «La universidad no me motivaba mucho así que, casi sin darme cuenta, pasé de las clases al ejército y la guerra; llevaba la guitarra hasta en el tanque», nos dijo nada más salir su primer disco.

Una «colección algo naif de pensamientos, emociones y experiencias» que, con el apoyo por la multinacional Atlantic, supuso un inesperado y abrumador éxito: segundo disco más vendido de la década, cinco nominaciones a los Grammy. y 'número 1' en Estados Unidos con el archisobado 'You're beautiful'.

Tras contemporizar con el doble 'Chasing the breeze' (colección de directos, entrevistas, sesiones iniciativas y vídeos), Blunt trata de prolongar su buena estrella comercial con 'All the lost souls', álbum compuesto en Ibiza y registrado en Los Ángeles con el mismo productor (Tom Rothrock) y los músicos que acompañaron a Blunt en su maratoniana gira del pasado año.

Balanceado con la visión de gente ajena a su estilo como Mark Batson (Dr. Dre, Dave Matthews), Max Martin o Jimmy Hogarth, la segunda entrega de la estrella con pasado militar guarda una decena de canciones de tono nostálgico con divagaciones sobre la vida y la muerte, los peajes de la fama y «las subidas y bajadas de mi viaje vital». Con su ya conocido punto vulnerable, 'All the lost souls' añade a los guiños a David Gray y su admirado Elliot Smith ambientales baladas pop con piano al frente a lo Keane-Coldplay y clasicistas medios tiempos en una tradición adulta y setentera que trae a la memoria a Elton John, James Taylor, Gilbert O' Sullivan, Fleetwood Mac, John McLean «y con un poco de suerte, algo de Bowie», añade Blunt.

-¿Ha alterado mucho tu vida el enorme éxito de tu debut?
-La primera vez todo era más nuevo y extraño. La diferencia es que ahora tengo más horas de vuelo y me siento más cómodo componiendo y grabando. Tengo más confianza y eso me ha permitido disfrutar del proceso. Creo que fue entre el final del verano del 2006 y el invierno de 2007 el primer momento en que tuve tiempo para pensar en los cambios que ha habido en mi vida. Estaba en una casa nueva al sol, con vistas y un piano, y era un buen momento para pensar en qué había pasado.
El piso en el que escribí el disco anterior estaba encima de una lavandería, con autobuses y camiones pasando todo el rato y apenas podía escuchar lo que tocaba. Así que el impacto ha sido enorme y se ha visto reflejado en el tono de celebración de las canciones. Al mismo tiempo hay por momentos una incredulidad sobre todo lo que ha pasado. Vender lo suficiente

-¿Cuántos disco esperabas vender cuando grabaste 'Back to Bedlam'?
-Recuerdo que cuando estaba haciendo mi primer álbum querían vender lo suficiente como para que la discográfica tuviese confianza en mí y me diese dinero para grabar un segundo disco. Tom (Rothrock, productor) me dijo: «si vendes 100.000 copias, quizás te vuelvan a meter en el estudio». Pensé que para vender esa cifra demasiada gente tenía que salir a comprarlo. Cuando ya habíamos superado de lejos esa cifra fue cuando estuve convencido de que podría continuar con mi carrera como músico de una manera cómoda.

-¿Cómo se plantea un disco después de colocar once millones de copias? Da la sensación de que has optado por no cambiar nada.
-Yo no he sentí ningún tipo de presión porque creo que después de haber vendido 11 millones de discos es muy improbable repetir ese éxito, así que en vez de poner esa cifra como objetivo, me he propuesto hacer algo de lo que realmente disfrute y esté satisfecho. Quería hacer algo que mostrase un crecimiento, un desarrollo como compositor, como músico y muestre una evolución en mi vida. Mi intención era disfrutar y plasmar estas canciones nuevas tal como las escribí en su momento y sin pensar demasiado en el público: con una gran confianza en los músicos y en las canciones. Este disco documenta un momento de mi vida y en ese sentido ha sido como una liberación.
-Has grabado con los músicos con los que te has tirado de gira dos años.

-Estar dos años de gira con las diez canciones de un disco se hace difícil, así que me tome tiempo para escribir en mi casa de Ibiza los nuevos temas y presentárselas al grupo con el que he estado todo este tiempo. Son músicos geniales que me han ayudado a desarrollarme como artista y saben exactamente lo que busco. Como además conocían las canciones, lo lógico era llevarlos también al estudio. La experiencia de estar haciendo música todos los días con ellos ha sido muy beneficiosa.

-También repites con el mismo productor.
-Sí, fue una gran experiencia grabar con Tom Rothrock. Cuando empecé a pensar en el segundo disco no tuve que pensar en quien lo produciría. Tom es un buen amigo y un productor muy especial que entiende la expresión musical que debe conseguir de cada músico. No intenta imponer su sello, sino capturar al artista. Me vino a ver durante la gira y cuando estaba componiendo, así que estuvo involucrado durante el proceso. Aunque mi nombre sea el que figure en la portada, hemos sido la banda, Tom Rothrock y yo los que hemos creado y capturado este momento. Autenticidad

-Rothrock produjo también a Elliot Smith, con quien te compara. ¿Tú le reconoces como influencia? -Sí, era un compositor brillante. Me siento también cercano a gente como Jeff Buckley, David Gray, Perry Blake y, por su sensibilidad al hacer canciones, con cantautores de los años 70 y los songwriters de 'americana'. Después de años de música prefabricada, hay una necesidad de recuperar el concepto de canción, de cierta forma más clásica y auténtica de hacer las cosas.

-El primer sencillo se titula '1973'. ¿Qué tiene de especial para ti ese año?
-En este disco he buscado colaborar con gente con un rollo musical muy distinto al mío. Escribí ese tema con un gran tipo llamado Mark Batson, que trabaja con gente como Dr. Dre. La hicimos en el viejo estudio de Jimi Hendrix en Nueva York. Nos juntamos para probar diferentes cosas, yo tenía en mente algo con un tempo más acelerado porque he estado viviendo en Ibiza, donde se escucha música de baile y me atraía ese estilo. La letra tiene un elemento de nostalgia, de celebración y de momentos compartidos pasándolo bien. En 1973 yo ni siquiera estaba vivo (nació un año después), así que no sé por qué esa fecha, seguramente rimaba con algo. Presión poco saludable

-Varios de los nuevos temas aluden a las consecuencias del éxito y la fama.
-Sí, canciones como 'One of the brightest stars' hablan sobre aspectos de la fama, sobre esos momentos en los que empiezas a notar la presión y ves cómo cambia tu imagen pública. El tema de la fama era algo que no esperaba y en lo que no creo; lamentablemente vivimos en un culto a la fama, donde los famosos son puestos en un pedestal y derribados en el mismo día. Es poco saludable, en un mundo donde hay cosas más importantes en las que fijarse, cuando los seres humanos deberían ser tratados como iguales, ni mejores ni peores que los demás. Desde luego, la atención de la prensa y los medios es algo que no tiene que ver con la música, y te puede distraer fácilmente.

James Blunt vuelve a ser 'número uno' en Gran Bretaña con su segundo disco

2007-09-30T20:02:00.000-07:00

El cantante británico James Blunt, exmilitar destinado en Irak que arrasó con su canción You're beautiful, ha vuelto a repetir éxito con su segundo y esperado disco, All the lost souls (Todas las almas perdidas).

El nuevo trabajo de Blunt, lanzado el pasado lunes, se ha situado en menos de una semana en el número uno de las listas de éxitos de Gran Bretaña, según ha informado Official UK Charts Company.

Su primer disco, Back to Bedlam, que incluye su canción You're beautiful, vendió más de 11 millones de copias.

(Noticia Antigua) James Blunt: "Sólo porque me otorguen el efímero título de estrella, no soy menos humano"

2007-09-30T19:52:00.000-07:00

El cantante británico ha desvelado cómo fue el proceso humano de su nuevo álbum All the lost souls, su segundo disco tras el éxito internacional vivido con el primero. Un ajetreo que llevó al cantante a esconderse en el Mediterráneo para encontrar la paz que necesitaba para poder componer.
Por AGENCIAS /los40.com Madrid / Londres (25/09/2007)

James es muy claro en cuanto a su álbum debut Back to bedlam: “Era una colección algo naíf de pensamientos, emociones y experiencias compuestas sin saber si alguien llegaría a escucharlas alguna vez". Con este segundo trabajo el primer problema con el que se topó Blunt fue la fama: "Sólo porque me otorguen el efímero título de estrella, no soy menos humano. Me pasan las mismas cosas, sólo que mi madre ahora se entera antes".

Fue buscando esa normalidad lo que le arrastró hasta Ibiza: "Fue entonces y sólo entonces cuando realmente pude parar y cerciorarme de lo que realmente había pasado en estos últimos tres años, y reflexionar a cerca de ello".

Además las circunstancias de alrededor le hicieron inmiscuirse más en el proceso de composición: "Alguien me había robado la caldera y no tenía calefacción" comenta. "Estaba dentro de casa con el abrigo puesto, un sombrero y unos guantes sin dedos tocando el piano". "Cuando tienes frío, estas completamente solo y no hablas el idioma del país donde te encuentras, es cuando realmente puedes componer. Las canciones que escribí durante el verano, al salir de las discotecas, eran mucho más alegres", aclara James sobre el ya exitoso All the lost souls.

(Noticia Antigua) James Blunt cumple con las previsiones y se hace con el nº 1 británico

2007-09-30T19:47:00.000-07:00

Dos años después de su éxito mundial con Back to bedlam, James Blunt vuelve a encabezar la clasificación de los discos más vendidos. El segundo álbum de estudio del británico, All the lost souls, ha conseguido debutar en la primera posición de las listas británicas cumpliendo todos los pronósticos.
Por NACHO HERRERO /los40.com Madrid (24/09/2007)

La buena racha del solista no se traduce sólo en la primera posición de elepés sino en un gran quinto lugar en la de singles con 1973, la tarjeta de presentación de su nuevo CD.

El ex combatiente le ha arrebatado la primera posición al rapero Kanye West, que la pasada semana estaba en el nº 1 con Graduation. La batalla entre las dos grandes figuras del hip hop sigue decantándose a su favor después de que 50 Cent retroceda hasta la cuarta plaza con Curtis.

Entre tanto, Amy Winehouse sigue entre los más vendidos con Back to black pese a todos los problemas por los que atraviesa la solista. Poco movimiento en el resto del Top Ten con KT Tunstall, Plain White T’s, Mark Knopfler y los recopilatorios de Pavarotti y Phil Collins entre los primeros puestos.
Singles

La lista de sencillos sigue encabezada por Sean Kingston y su Beautiful girls seguido de 50 Cent, quien acompañado de Timberlake y Timbaland si logra imponerse en esta clasificación a su “enemigo” Kanye que cae al 4 con Stronger.

Entre lo más llamativo merece la pena destacar a Babyshambles, el regreso musical de la banda de Pete Dohery, que irrumpe directo al 6 con Delivery; y a Foo Fighters. La formación encabezada por Dave Grohl ocupa ya el octavo lugar con The pretender.

(Noticia Antigua) 'All the lost souls',nuevo CD de James Blunt, la última revelación británica

2007-09-30T19:45:00.000-07:00

Ya han pasado casi tres años desde que James Blunt publicó su álbum debut 'Back to Bedlam', convirtiéndose en el artista revelación del año y vendiendo 11 millones de discos en todo el mundo. Ahora, llega la prueba de fuego de convencer que aquello no fue tan sólo cuestión de suerte con 'All The Lost Souls'.

Fue número 1 en 18 países del mundo y candidato a 5 premios Grammy, con un disco del que el músico británico asegura que era 'una colección algo naif de pensamientos, emociones y experiencias, compuestas sin saber si alguien llegaría a escucharlas alguna vez'.

Y ese cúmulo de experiencias adquiridas en estos últimos años son las que relata ahora en 'All The Lost Souls' (Warner), un álbum que contiene 10 canciones sobre la vida y la muerte, y las almas perdidas.

A Blunt le preocupa la idea del posible distanciamiento de su público tras el gran éxito alcanzado: 'Sólo porque me otorguen el efímero título de estrella, no soy menos humano. Me pasan las mismas cosas, sólo que mi madre ahora se entera antes.'

Empezó a componer 'All The Lost Souls' durante la gira mundial de 'Back to Bedlam', pero para escribir necesita despegarse del ajetreo de los últimos años y buscar la tranquilidad, por eso en el verano de 2006 se retiró a la isla de Ibiza. 'Fue entonces y sólo entonces cuando realmente pude parar y cerciorarme de lo que realmente había pasado en estos últimos tres años, y reflexionar a cerca de ello', comentó.

James regresó de nuevo a Ibiza el pasado invierno y recibió ayuda de la fuente más insospechada para componer: 'Alguien me había robado la caldera y no tenía calefacción' comenta. 'Estaba dentro de casa con el abrigo puesto, un sombrero y unos guantes sin dedos tocando el piano'.

'Cuando tienes frío, estas completamente solo y no hablas el idioma del país donde te encuentras, es cuando realmente puedes componer. Las canciones que escribí durante el verano, al salir de las discotecas, eran mucho más alegres', declara.

Blunt, musicalmente hablando, reconoce influencias de músicos de los 70 como Fleetwood Mac, Don McLean, Elton John, Steely Dan e incluso Bowie o Led Zeppelin.

'1973' es el tema que abre el disco y el primer single del álbum, 'una nostálgica, compleja y marchosa mirada al pasado'. Otras canciones como 'One of the brightest star' y 'Annie' tratan de las vaguedades y las distorsiones que la fama puede acarrear; 'Carry you home' y 'I'll take everything' abordan la mortalidad, y 'I really want you' y 'Same mistake' muestran su parte más vulnerable.

El disco ha sido grabado en los Angeles junto a la banda que le acompañó en la gira y producido por Tom Rothrock.

(Noticia Antigua) James Blunt reconoce que le encanta tener sexo con las groupies de sus conciertos

2007-09-30T19:44:00.000-07:00

El cantante inglés ha declarado hace poco que durante sus giras le gusta dormir con las chicas más guapas de entre sus seguidoras. El inglés, antes conocido por su buena conducta y discreción, parece que se encuentra cada vez más como pez en el agua en el mundo de fama que le rodea. No tiene ningún reparo en reconocer que desde que es conocido tiene una vida sexual muchísimo más activa, y que la mejor manera de pasar el tiempo entre concierto y concierto es acostándose con sus fans.
Por REDACCIÓN /los40.com Madrid / Londres (16/09/2007)

“Siempre pensé que hacer esto era mi responsabilidad. La gente me ha dicho que no debería dejarme ver en los clubs con mujeres guapas, pero no veo por qué no puedo hacerlo. Me divierto con ello y soy honesto y abierto sobre el modo que conduzco mi vida y no engaño a nadie", afirmó el cantante.

Desde que rompió en marzo con su pareja más duradera, la modelo checa Petra Nemcova, el ex capitán inglés ha cambiado el rumbo de su vida, no queriendo dejar pasar ni una oportunidad de pasárselo en grande. A Blunt se le ha relacionado durante los pasados meses con diversas celebridades del star system americano e inglés, entre ellas Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Mischa Barton o Tara Palmer-Tomkinson, e incluso alguna de ellas ha llegado a declarar que Blunt era una amante “realmente caliente”.

El cantante británico saltó a la fama con su disco de debut, Back to Bediam, con el que logró vender millones de copias en todo el mundo. Ahora, con sus segundo disco recien publicado, el llamado All the lost souls, Blunt pretende asentarse en el mercado musical de su país y del resto del mundo como una estrella más.

Uno de los hechos que más llamó la atención de todo el público mundial en el estreno discográfico de James Blunt, fue su condición de ex combatiente en la guerra de la antigua Yugoslavia. Varios millones de discos después, el solista ha vuelto a Kosovo para rodar un documental.

Allí, el músico sirvió durante seis meses para el ejército británico: "Quería ver si realmente valió la pena pasar allí seis meses ya que entonces invertimos mucho tiempo, energía y vida en ese lugar. Fue increíble volver allí. Hubo cosas agradables de ver como algunas mejoras que se habían hecho, aunque otras fueron tristes. Toda la sangre derramada hará que las secuelas sigan vivas durante generaciones" explica a la BBC.

Una etapa dura de su vida que difícilmente dejará atrás aunque su carrera como músico continúe avanzando con su su segundo disco All the lost souls que ha sido presentado por su nuevo sencillo 1973. Una canción que, como ya ha explicado en repetidas ocasiones, está dedicada a la vida nocturna de Ibiza: "En 2006 pasé mucho tiempo allí con mis amigos. Es una especie de celebración con algo de nostalgia".

Imposible olvidar al cantante británico James Blunt. Y es que aquel pomposo hit de nombre "You're beautiful" sonó en emisoras hasta la saciedad. Y el videoclip no digamos. Algo tendría que cautivó a propios y extraños, se convirtió en artista revelación del año y vendió 11 millones de discos en todo el mundo.

Tres años más tarde, y tras el gran éxito alcanzado con su álbum debut "Back to Bedlam", Blunt regresa al mercado para reafirmarse con "All The Lost Souls" (Warner), plástico que abandona el terreno de los pensamientos, emociones y experiencias para relatar el cúmulo de experiencias adquiridas entre uno y otro disco por el artista, centrándose en la vida y la muerte y las almas perdidas. "1973" es el tema que abre el disco y el primer single del álbum, "una nostálgica, compleja y marchosa mirada al pasado". Otras canciones como "One of the brightest star" y "Annie" tratan de las vaguedades y las distorsiones que la fama puede acarrear; "Carry you home" y "I'll take everything" abordan la mortalidad, y "I really want you" y "Same mistake" muestran su parte más vulnerable.

I'll be home, love

When the night takes a deep breath
And the daylight has no end

To Sunday on my knees

And I've know her since

Since she was a little girl
With Spanish eyes
Oh, when I saw her
In a pram they pushed her by

My, how you've grown
Well it's been
It's been a little while

Slow down my bleeding heart
A man dreams one day to fly
A man takes a rocketship into the sky
He lives on star that's dying in the night
And follows in the trail
The scatter of light

Turn it on
Turn it on
You turn me on

Slow down my bleeding heart
Slowly, slowly love
Slow down my bleeding heart
Slowly, slowly love
Slow down my beating heart
Slowly, slowly love.

[Título: In Flowers]

You're A butterfly
and you want to be
in flowers
and you want to meet
Dalai lama
reach nirvana

because I love you love me
I just want you to be
in flowers
with me

I'm A little child
and I want to be
held in your arms
any fool can see
that it's nothing new
that I need you

because I love you love me
I just want you to see
the little child in me

there's A butterfly that’s in my heart
it lives in me when we're apart
but preferably you stay with me
because I love you love me
I just want you to be the butterfly in me

Simona
You're getting older
Your journey's been etched
On your skin

Simona
Wish I had known that
What seemed so strong
Has been and gone

I would call you up everyday Saturday night
And we'd both stay out 'til the morning light
And we sang, "Here we go again"
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
In 1973
Singing, "Here we go again"

Simona
Wish I was sober
So I could see clearly now
The rain has gone

Simona
I guess it's over
My memory plays our tune
The same old song

I would call you up everyday Saturday night
And we'd both stay out 'til the morning light
And we sang, "Here we go again"
And though time goes by
I will always be
In a club with you
In 1973
Singing, "Here we go again"

I would call you up everyday Saturday night
And we'd both stay out 'til the morning light
And we sang, "Here we go again"
And though time goes by

[Título: One Of The Brightest Stars]

One day your story will be told
One of the lucky ones who's made his name
One day they'll make you glorious, beneath the lights of your deserved fame.
And it all comes round, once in a lifetime like it always does
Everybody loves you cause you've taken a chance out on a dance to the moon - too soon

And yes they told you so - we were the ones who saw you first of all
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars

One day they'll tell you that you've changed, though their the ones who seem to stop and stare.
One day you'll hope to make the grave - before the papers choose to send you there

And it all comes round once in a lifetime like it always does
Nobody loves you cause you've taken a chance out on a dance to the moon - too soon

And yes they told you so - we were the ones who saw you first of all
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars

And yes they told you so - we were the ones who saw you first of all
We always knew that you were one of the brightest stars

Ooo, these feet carry me far
O, my body o' so tired
Mouth is dry, hardly speak
Holy Spirit rise in me

I swear, forever is just a minute to me
And I'll take everything ... in this life
I'll join everyone
Ooo, when I die - have my body, have my mind, have my coat, take my time
These I borrowed, borrowed so far
Turned to dust, fall apart.

I swear, forever is just a minute to me
And, I'll take everything ... in this life
I'll join everyone ... and then the star grows old and dies

And I'll take everything ... in this life
I'll join everyone ... since I'm gonna die
I'll take everything ... in this life
I'll join everyone, cause all men die

[Título: Same Mistake]

So while I'm turning in my sheets
And once again I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go

Hello, hello

There is no place I cannot go
My mind is muddy but
My heart is heavy does it show
I lose the track that loses me
So here I go

Uhuh uhuh uhuh

And so I sent some men to fight
And one came back at dead of night
Said he'd seen my enemy
Said he looked just like me
So I set out to cut myself
And here I go

Uhuh uhuh uhuh

I’m not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

Uhuh uhuh uhuh

And maybe someday we will face
And maybe talk but not just speak
Dont buy the promises cause
There are no promises I keep
And my reflection troubles me
So here I go

Uhuh uhuh uhuh

I’m not calling for a second chance
I’m screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I'll just make the same mistake

I’m not calling for a second chance
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I'll just make the same mistake again

Uhuh uhuh uhuh

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
So while I'm turning in my sheets
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
And once again I cannot sleep
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Walk out the door and up the street
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Look at the stars
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Look at the stars falling down
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
And I wonder where
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Did I go wrong?

[Título: Carry You Home]

Trouble is her only friend, and he's back again
Makes her body older than it really is
And she says it's high time she went away, no one's got much to say in this town
Trouble is the only way is down, down down

As strong as you were, tender you go
I'm watching you breathing, for the last time
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet, I know what it means and I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home.

If she had wings she would fly away and another day God will give her some
Trouble is the only way is down, down down.

As strong as you were, tender you go
I'm watching you breathing, for the last time
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet, I know what it means and I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home.

And their all going crazy in New York City at night
And someone's little girl was taken from the world to light
Under the stars and stripes

As strong as you were, tender you go
I'm watching you breathing, for the last time
A song for your heart, but when it is quiet, I know what it means and I'll carry you home, I'll carry you home. (X2)

[Título: Give Me Some Love]

Me and my guitar playing my way
It makes them frown
The little pieces by the highway, bring me down.

Mine is not a heart of stone
I am only skin and bone now
Those little pieces are little pieces of my own

Why don't you give me some love
I've taken shit loads of drugs
I'm so tired of never fixing the pain
Valium said to me, I'll take you seriously
And we'll come back as someone else
who's better than yourself

Many faces at the doorway - all hiding round
Watch me fighting in the hallway but make no sound

So I'm standing all alone and I'm only skin and bone now
So many faces, but they all look out for their own

Why don't you give me some love
I've taken shit loads of drugs
I'm so tired of never fixing the pain
Valium said to me, I'll take you seriously
And we'll come back as someone else
who's better than yourself

Why don't you give me some love
I've taken shit loads of drugs
I'm so tired of never fixing the pain
Valium said to me, I'll take you seriously
And we'll come back as someone else
who's better than yourself today

And someday soon they'll drop the bomb and let it all out someday
I know that some day soon we'll all be gone so, let it all out, let it all out today

And give me some love
Yeah, give me some love,
Come give me some love today

[Título: I Really Want You]

Intro:
I really want you
I really want you

Verse 1:
Many Prophets preach on bended knees
Many clerics wasted wine,
Do the bloody sheets and
those troubled streets
mean?
I have wasted time,

Are there silver shores on paradise?
Can I come in from the cold?
I killed a man in a far away land
My enemy untold

Chorus:
I really want you to really want me
But I really don’t know
if you can do that
(really want you)
I know you want to know what’s right
But I know so hard for
you to do that (really
want you)
Time's running out as it often does
And often dictates that
you can't do that (really
want you)
Fate can't break this feeling inside
That's burning up through my veins...

I really want you
I really want you
I really want you
Now...

No matter what I say or do
The message isn’t getting through
And you’re listening to the sound
Of my breaking heart

I really want you
I really want you

Verse 2:
Is a poor man rich in solitude?
Or when mother earth complained
Did the beggar pray for
a sunny day but
Lady luck for rain

They say a million
people bow and scream
To an effigy of gold
As so life begin
And the ship we're in
And history unfold

Chorus

I really want you
I really want you
I really want you

Are you calling for.... our last dance?
I see it in your eyes.... in your eyes
Same old moves for... a new romance
I could use the same old lines ...
But I'll sing...

Shine on, just shine on
Close your eyes and they'll all be gone
They can scream and shout that they've been sold out, but it paved the cloud that we're dancing on
So shine on, just shine on
With your smile just as bright as the sun
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
But you and I, just shone, just shone

And when silence greets... my last goodbye
The words I need are in you're eyes
And I'll sing .....

Shine on, just shine on
Close your eyes and they'll all be gone
They can scream and shout that they've been sold out but it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on
So shine on, just shine on
With your smile just as bright as the sun
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
But you and I just shone, just shone

So shine on, just shine on
Close your eyes and they'll all be gone
They can scream and shout that they've been sold out, but it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on
So shine on, just shine on
With your smile just as bright as the sun
Cause they're all just slaves to the Gods they've made
But you and I just shone, just shone.....

Annie, you had your dream on the bright lights
I thought I saw your photograph
and its such a laugh, in a magazine
Did it all come true?

then Annie, you were made for the big time
They said you were a star to be
In the NME
But the walls came tumbling down down, they go down on me

Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you

Annie, would it be nice to be recognized?
Did you practise your autograph?
But then no one's asked
And it's such a shame
Your dreams are crumbling

Annie, why aren't you big in limelight?
'Cause I thought that you said you'd be
A celebrity several years ago
But it all came tumbling down down, they go down on me

Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you

Annie you're a star
You're just not going very far
And all the world will know your name
And you'll be famous as you are
'Cause I'll sing for you

Is it a warning?
Is it an evil sign?
Is it a people, who have lost their mind?
Is it the darkness?
Is it a memory?
Is it a best friend, leaving you behind?

Is it ever gonna stop?
Will they ever let you go?
You're in a rush, they don't care enough, cause their lives are very slow

Time is ticking on
You don't get a second shot and when you sell you soul for a leading role will the lost souls be forgot?

And if I can't hear the music
and the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own
And I hope the lonely hearts band
will play out one last song
before the sun goes down

And is it envy?
Should it really make you sick?
Is it another time that you realise you'd better get out quick
Cause time is ticking on - too long to fake a smile
But then you sell your soul for a leading role so wear it for a while

And if I can't hear the music
and the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own
And I hope the lonely hearts band
will play out one last song
before the sun goes down
And there she goes
And there she goes

So, ________________________
Cause Billy's got himself a job
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
Cause you're strange and new,

So, ________________________

She said to me, "Go steady on me.
Won't you tell me what the Wise Men said?
When they came down from Heaven,
Smoked nine 'til seven,
All the shit that they could find,
But they couldn't escape from you,
Couldn't be free of you,
And now they know there's no way out,
And they're really sorry now for what they've done,
They were three Wise Men just trying to have some fun."

Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by the sea.
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?

Really sorry now,
They weren't to know.
They got caught up in your talent show,
With you pernickety little bastards in your fancy dress,
Who just judge each other and try to impress,
But they couldn't escape from you,
Couldn't be free of you,
And now they know there's no way out,
And they're really sorry now for what they've done,
They were three Wise Men just trying to have some fun.

Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by the sea.
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?

Beautiful dawn - lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see (with you).
Beautiful dawn - I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night.
But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn - melt with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end (of time)?
Beautiful dawn - You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine.
High; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,
Getting high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

I have seen peace. I have seen pain,
Resting on the shoulders of your name.
Do you see the truth through all their lies?
Do you see the world through troubled eyes?
And if you want to talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.

I have seen birth. I have seen death.
Lived to see a lover's final breath.
Do you see my guilt? Should I feel fright?
Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?
And if you want to talk about it once again,
On you I depend. I'll cry on your shoulder.
You're a friend.

You and I have lived through many things.
I'll hold on to your heart.
I wouldn't cry for anything,
But don't go tearing your life apart.

I have seen fear. I have seen faith.
Seen the look of anger on your face.
And if you want to talk about what will be,
Come and sit with me, and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.
And if you want to talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
Once again
Cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend

[Título: Goodbye My Lover]

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bare my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.

I just can't believe that it's over.
We were chilling out on the sofa,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you lick that line yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Do you seem real but I seem fake?
Does everyone get hypnotized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

I'm just so relieved that it's over.
We were hanging out going nowhere,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you burn that bridge yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Are you just cool and I'm just baked?
Does everyone get mesmerized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.

written by J. Blunt, S. Skarbek & J. Hogarth

I'm on a bus. I'm in a rush.
I would catch a cab, but I'm not that fussed.
Another day. Another dime.
I know some might say, that I'm wasting time.
And then at night, another fight,
And I don't know what it means but I'd never cause a scene.

I'm gonna make today sugar-coated.
I'm gonna get so high I'm lying here on the floor.
It's time these shoes of mine were fully loaded.
It's time to sit back and smile.
I've had a smoke and it's been a while.
It's been a while.

Hello dawn. It's good to be.
Did I pay for the girl lying next to me?
I had a love, but little luck.
I don't bleed any more 'cause my heart's been crushed.
And now I'm free – lucky me.
Yeah my girlfriend was a bore, she don't love me anymore.

I'm gonna make today sugar-coated.
I'm gonna get so high I'm lying here on the floor.
It's time these shoes of mine were fully loaded.
It's time to sit back and smile.
I've had a smoke and it's been a while.
It's been a while.

A little hush. A little rush.
I guess now we'll see, if I'm big enough.
Finally it's only me.
Things will never be the same. There's no living life again.

I'm gonna make today sugar-coated.
I'm gonna get so high I'm lying here on the floor.
It's time these shoes of mine were fully loaded.
It's time to sit back and smile.
I've had a smoke and it's been a while.
It's been a while.

My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Flying high, [ - video/radio edited version]
Fucking high, [ - CD version]
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

And I don't know what to do,

Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going).
Holds his head in disgrace (he can't escape the truth).
He knows the price that he's paid.
He admits that it's too late to admit that he's afraid.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but he's always open,
To relive time in his mind.
Oh Billy.

Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going).
He's got lines on his face (they tell the story of his pain).
He accepts it's his fate.
He admits it took too long to admit that he was wrong.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but he's always open,
To relive time in his mind.
Oh Billy.

Once he was a lover sleeping with another.
Now he's just known as a cheat.
And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer.
Seen into the eyes of the weak.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but he's always open,
To relive time in his mind.

[Título: Tears And Rain]

How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
And the think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
Do let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talking
Words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you
Go now
I'll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
Won't you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead
I fall

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help
Who knows where that might lead
I fall at your feet.

[Título: No Bravery]

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families‚ turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

[Título: Where Is My Mind]

(Pixies cover)

Ooooooh
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind [3x]
Way out in the water
See it swimmin'
I was swimmin' in the Carribean
Animals were hiding behind the rocks
Except the little fish
But they told me I should ask myself
Where is my mind [3x]
Way out in the water
See it swimmin'?
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
If there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself
Where is my mind [3x]
Ooooh
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Ooooh
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Ooooh
Ooooh

[Título: High]

Beautiful dawn - lights up the shore for me.
There is nothing else in the world,
I'd rather wake up and see (with you).
Beautiful dawn - I'm just chasing time again.
Thought I would die a lonely man, in endless night.
But now I'm high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Beautiful dawn - melt with the stars again.
Do you remember the day when my journey began?
Will you remember the end (of time)?
Beautiful dawn - You're just blowing my mind again.
Thought I was born to endless night, until you shine.
High; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.

Will you be my shoulder when I'm grey and older?
Promise me tomorrow starts with you,
Getting high; running wild among all the stars above.
Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me

[Título: You're Beautiful]

My life is brilliant.
My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Flying high, [video/radio edited version]
Fucking high, [CD version]
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you

[Título: Wisemen]

She said to me, Go steady on me.
Won't you tell me what the Wise Men said?
When they came down from Heaven,
Smoked nine 'til seven,
All the shit that they could find,
But they couldn't escape from you,
Couldn't be free of you,
And now they know there's no way out,
And they're really sorry now for what they've done,
They were three Wise Men just trying to have some fun

Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by the sea.
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?

Really sorry now,
They weren't to know.
They got caught up in your talent show,
With you pernickety little bastards in your fancy dress,
Who just judge each other and try to impress,
But they couldn't escape from you,
Couldn't be free of you,
And now they know there's no way out,
And they're really sorry now for what they've done,
They were three Wise Men just trying to have some fun.

Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by the sea.
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?

Look who's alone now,
It's not me. It's not me.
Those three Wise Men,
They've got a semi by the sea.
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?
Got to ask yourself the question,
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Where are you now?

Got to ask yourself the question,

[Título: Goodbye My Lover]

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.
So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.
You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.
I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.
I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be
I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.
I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bare my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.
Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.
I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow

[Título: Tears And Rain]

How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

How I wish I could walk through the doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell.
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.

I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same: it just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.

[Título: Out Of My Mind]

Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
He'll judge me by the fact that my face don't fit.
It's touching that the monkey sits on my shoulder.
He's waiting for the day when he gets me,
But I don't need no alibi - I'm a puppet on a string.
I just need this stage to be seen.
We all need a pantomime to remind us what is real.
Hold my eye and know what it means.

'cos I'm out of my mind.

Judging by the look on the organ-grinder,
He'll judge me by the fact that my face don't fit.

But I won't be your concubine - I'm a puppet not a whore.
I just need this stage to be seen.
Will you be a friend of mine to remind me what is real?
Hold my heart and see that it bleeds.

[Título: So Long Jimmy]

I just can't believe that it's over.
We were chilling out on the sofa,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you lick that line yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Do you seem real but I seem fake?
Does everyone get hypnotized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

I'm just so relieved that it's over.
We were hanging out going nowhere,
Digging how the guitar goes,
In a song that no one knows.
Did you burn that bridge yourself,
Or did the voodoo magic help?
Does everyone have a different take?
Are you just cool and I'm just baked?
Does everyone get mesmerized by your fire?

So long, Jimmy, so long.
Though you only stayed a moment,
We all know that you're the one. Singing,
So long, Jimmy, so long.
Sure we're glad for the experience,
We miss you now you've gone.
We're just swimming in your soul 'cause,
We all wish we wrote this song.
Life goes on.

[Título: Billy]

Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going).
Holds his head in disgrace (he can't escape the truth).
He knows the price that he's paid.
He admits that it's too late to admit that he's afraid.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but he's always open,
To relive time in his mind.
Oh Billy.

Billy's leaving today (don't know where he's going).
He's got lines on his face (they tell the story of his pain).
He accepts it's his fate.
He admits it took too long to admit that he was wrong.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but he's always open,
To relive time in his mind.
Oh Billy.

Once he was a lover sleeping with another.
Now he's just known as a cheat.
And he wish he'd had a mirror; looked a little clearer.
Seen into the eyes of the weak.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes his soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but he's always open,
To relive time in his mind.
Oh Billy.

[Título: Cry]

I have seen peace. I have seen pain,
Resting on the shoulders of your name.
Do you see the truth through all their lies?
Do you see the world through troubled eyes?
And if you want to talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.

I have seen birth. I have seen death.
Lived to see a lover's final breath.
Do you see my guilt? Should I feel fright?
Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?
And if you want to talk about it once again,
On you I depend. I'll cry on your shoulder.
You're a friend.

You and I have lived through many things.
I'll hold on to your heart.
I wouldn't cry for anything,
But don't go tearing your life apart.

I have seen fear. I have seen faith.
Seen the look of anger on your face.
And if you want to talk about what will be,
Come and sit with me, and cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend.
And if you want to talk about it anymore,
Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
Once again
Cry on my shoulder,
I'm a friend

Biografia

2007-09-30T12:06:00.000-07:00

James Blunt nacido como James Hillier Blount el 22 de febrero de 1974 crecio en una familia de militares, en la que reinaban el orden y la disciplina. Creció en Tidiworth, en Wiltshire, pero aunque para su padre la música rimara con ruido, su madre le inició en la melodía. Con siete años ya tocaba el violín y después el piano y, a los 14 años, ya empezó con sonidos más rock.

Militar de padres a hijos
En la familia Blunt lo de ser militar pasa de padres a hijos desde hace generaciones. Aunque sea con una guitarra eléctrica, el adolescente con pelo largo se inscribió para cumplir con la tradición familiar. Tras diplomarse en ingienería aeroespacial, acude al ejército británico. Destinado a Kosovo, participa en una misión de paz de la ONU en la ex-Yugoslavia. Fue allí donde compuso el tema “No Bravery”, una canción en la que cuenta su experiencia en la guerra. Tras cuatro años de servicio fiel y leal, deja definitivamente el ejército en el año 2002 y se dedica exclusivamente a su pasión, la música.

Reencuentros decisivos
James Blunt se sube por primera vez a los escenarios en el Water Rats de Londres. En mayo de 2003 su carrera toma un giro decisivo. Participa en el encuentro musical South by Southwest en Austin, Texas, donde destaca y emprende el camino a Los Ángeles. Conoce a Linda Perry (ex miembro del grupo 4 Non Blondes), a quien seduce con su voz y logra que le presente a Tom Rothrock, el productor de Beck. De esta colaboración nace “Back to Bedlam” en el año 2005. El álbum alcanza un éxito mundial y James alcanza el puesto número uno de ventas en EEUU, algo que ningún británico había conseguido desde que Elton John lo consiguió hacía 9 años.

Un comienzo de escandalo
Su primer single, “You are beautiful”, vendió más de 1.5 millones de copias ese mismo día. Con diez piezas, su álbum sedujo a gran parte del público. Con su voz, aguda en ocasiones, y algo extraña, James Blunt desata la pasión de las fans, que le siguen en masa en cada desplazamiento. Llueven las recompensas musicales (un MTV Europe Music Award y un Q Award en 2005, además de un NRJ Music Award en 2006 como artista revelación internacional; un Brit Award y dos Grammy Awards en 2007 además de otros premios) y el cantante inicia una gira internacional a principios de 2006.

Un rompecorazones
Tras una relación seria con su amiga Camilla Bowler, James vivió una bonita historia de amor con la modelo checa Petra Nemcova. Se habían comprometido, pero terminaron su relación en febrero. Desde entonces, el cantante va de flor en flor. Ha confesado estar encandilado por la brasileña Gisèle Bündchen y ha hecho todo lo posible por conocerla. Hay rumores que aseguran que ha tenido una aventura con Nicole Scherzinger, la cantante de Pussycat Dolls, o con Paris Hilton, la rica heredera; pero los últimos rumores le unen a Mika Simmons, una psicoterapeuta con la que tendría un idilio.
