View Full Version : James Blunt: World Domination Continues. Hecate 02-03-2006, 10:20 'You're Beautiful' has just become the first British number 1 in America (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4764678.stm) since 1997. The last one was Elton John's maudlin 'Candle in the Wind'. Make of this what you will... slh73 02-03-2006, 10:40 Americans have no taste in music? Ditz 02-03-2006, 11:03 'You're Beautiful' has just become the first British number 1 in America (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4764678.stm) since 1997. The last one was Elton John's maudlin 'Candle in the Wind'. Make of this what you will... *makes sick noise* ill tell you why. americans love mush! espech anything overly sickly or soppy in music, TV, film etc. even their comedies have to have some moral/soppy storyline attached to them! so is it any wonder these two songs got to no.1? go figure... Ditz 02-03-2006, 11:04 Americans have no taste in music? i think that speaks for itself...;) Longcol 02-03-2006, 22:54 Perhaps he could go and live in America and they could release Mark Chapman?:D Emilychee 03-03-2006, 08:12 I saw a clip of him singing live this morning on TV and I actually wanted to vomit. I cant stand his voice, its worse than fingernails down a blackboard!!!! Ousetunes 03-03-2006, 09:12 Perhaps he could go and live in America and they could release Mark Chapman?:D As a Beatles fan I find this comment offensive. So you don't like a particular person. Why, let's murder him. Not the most intelligent post I've ever read on here. Agent Gypo 03-03-2006, 10:31 They can have him, let's hope he stays there and never troubles us ever again.

Humour bypass on Barber Road? brooksy 05-03-2006, 12:56 :hihi: Must admit he is slightly boring and middle of the road, as said let the yanks have him EdnaKrabappe 05-03-2006, 18:43 My mates think he's wonderful but I don't get either the music or the looks thing. He's a bit girly - too jolly hockey sticks for me - and his voice grates. The songs themselves aren't bad but would sound better sung by someone who can sing. Hecate 05-03-2006, 18:48 His music is for those who think that Ronan Keating's output is too intellectually challenging. miniminch 05-03-2006, 19:48 isn't James Blunt cockney rhyming slang?:confused: Rich 05-03-2006, 20:06 'You're Beautiful' has just become the first British number 1 in America (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/4764678.stm) since 1997. The last one was Elton John's maudlin 'Candle in the Wind'. Make of this what you will... And the only reason Candle in the wind even charted in the US was cos in 1997, it was about HRH Princess Di, whom the Americans all loved, in fact apart from the Queen she was probably the only member of the Royal Family the average Joe Public American had any time for. Longcol 05-03-2006, 23:31 isn't James Blunt cockney rhyming slang?:confused: Like in "you fancy a quick couple of James of snooker"......... no.....don't think I've quite got the hang of it yet...;) Agent Gypo 06-03-2006, 11:40 James Blunt is the antichrist. Or maybe it's Jack Johnson. Who knows, they are both plain evil. |
