Life Magazine :: James Blunt
The new issue of Life magazine, which will be available this Friday, uncovers an edgier and much more desirable James Blunt. You probably think he is a softy, but guess what?! James is more like an undercover revel, "Everyone thinks I'm this quiet singer-songwriter who stays at home every night. I've never been that person. I'm a big partier."
On song writing:
"I drink a lot. I do. And I go to a quiet place and start writing. I'm not an observer, [songs come from] something I've experienced or felt. The last two years will have a place on the next record."
On fame:
"The notion of fame is such a distraction from what I do. And it's unhealthy when we have things like war and global warming going on. We need to adjust the balance. Stop producing magazines that publish pictures of celebrities jumping out of cars with no underwear on."
On 'You're Beautiful':
"I wrote it in two and a half minutes. I saw an ex-girlfriend on the tube with a new boyfriend and lived a lifetime in those minutes."
On Kosovo:
"At the time, I was very cynical and thought it was just a way to make Tony Blair look good as a statesman. But when I got there, it made sense. It didn't matter what Tony Blair thought--we were trying to save people's lives."
I leave you with 'Good Bye My Lover':
