★“伦敦地铁爆炸案后隔一天我认识这个声音！英雄是时势造出来的吗？还是你创造出的一根漂流木？在沉沦的时刻足以挽救你，像他歌里的天使，在地铁站凝望你，保护你的心。我要推荐这张唱片，聆听的感觉是一场奇妙的经验”…歌手 陈绮贞

“James Blunt他的歌声 仿佛有一种魔力 勾起我们淡淡的感伤 若有似无的愁怅绝赞的专辑 5颗星星满分推荐”…HITFM 活力DJ 阿娟

“早就过了胡乱忧伤掉眼泪的年纪了，但是 James Blunt就是有那个办法让你掉泪。可以简单的就用他的声音打动你，光是听到第一句：“My life is brilliant”应该就可以让很多人痛哭流涕了吧！第一次听到他的歌 You're beautiful，出现了一种莫名的感伤，从他的声音，从他的旋律，从他表达的方式，就是这么简单。”…Hit FM Love DJ Christine 福怡

“就像许多善于结合文字，音符与歌声的前辈一样，James Blunt在指尖弹着滑动着拨弄着生活中，许多过了就忘但捕捉下来就很深刻的火光。词藻不见得华丽，但字里行间都是暖呼呼的真挚，佐以高明的写歌技巧，以及自然的嗓音，敲着跟他有着相近频率的心。”…HIT FM 马路DJ Elsa
“单凭那以钢琴伴奏、颇有经典气味的压轴曲No Bravery，便已说明当下的James Blunt现象，未来还很多可期待。”…

“他就如同我们这些小人物，在这烦恼爆炸的空间里，带着小小的感动与自我排解的幽默过生活，而这些可贵的元素都放在他的音乐里。”…资深乐评人 马欣

“不同的日子里，我们都有不同的体验。不安于室，让我们沉静地体认，音乐带给我们在生活上，甚至是超乎生活上的感动。在这张专辑里，要挑出一首你最爱的一首歌，是不可能的，因为在这张专辑里，所有的歌曲都是一种可能，都是一种体认。”… Timothy Nathan Joel.(爱画提姆)

“坐在公司的视听间里聆听James Blunt，整个人被他的声音环绕着，心就像被涟漪般一圈圈扩散的振幅给震碎了一层角质，渐渐露出柔软的本质，James的音乐无形中给予了现代人一种珍贵的音乐疗效。”…《AV CHOICE视听玩家杂志》副主编徐衍佩


★“我的人生经历是我的创作泉源。”当James Blunt在被问到自己的创作灵感时，他会给你这样的答覆，这或许是每一位创作型的歌手在被问到同样问题时千篇一律的标准答案，但是，当你知道他的成长背景，你就会知道他为什么会想把人生经历写成一首首的歌，因为，他有个不寻常的人生，一个让他不得不动笔把自己的所见所闻用歌声抒发的人生，他的歌声让我们听见了60年代叙事民谣歌手用歌声记录自己对周遭事物的感触所产生的感动，一种未过度渲染浪漫的心情分享。


★追溯James Blunt的血缘，你会发现他的家族血脉相承，拥有近百年投身军旅的传统，大学毕业后，在老爸的逼迫下，他加入军队，他最后升到上尉，并成为第一个派遣到科索沃的英国军官，领导三万人的和平部队。2002年，Blunt毅然放弃军旅生涯，决定当个歌手，2003年9月，他远赴洛杉矶，与Tom Rothrock [*Beck、Elliott Smith、Badly Drawn Boy]、Linda Perry [*Gwen Stefani]展开专辑的录制，他白天录歌，晚上就跑到酒吧，与别人分享自己的人生故事，后来，这些故事就成了一首首具有宿命色彩的歌，像专辑里的结束曲 "No Bravery" ，是他在99年在科索沃的军营中，亲眼目睹血淋淋的科索沃内战后，在寂静的午夜时分所写下的歌。


★Blunt的歌声就跟他的钢琴指法一样沉重，感慨的纪录这历史的伤痛，虽然，Blunt的歌不全然都这样的严肃，但却都是相当扣人心弦的，像是纪录着难以忘情、怦然心动的情感小品 "You're Beautiful" 就把爱情世界里的偶然、巧合与失落表达得十分动人，他的经纪人[*同时也是Elton John的经纪人]称赞这首歌是‘21世纪版的 "Your Song" ’，仔细听着整张专辑，还真会让人怀念起Elton John刚出道时的乐风，制作人Tom Rothrock则认为Blunt就像是英国乐界足以与Beck、Elliott Smith相抗衡的创

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,
F***ing high,
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 you 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.

My life is brilliant.
我的生活灿烂闪耀
My life is brilliant.
我的生活灿烂闪耀
My love is pure.
我的爱情纯结无瑕
I saw an angel.
因为我曾见过天使
Of that I'm sure.
对此我深信不疑
She smiled at me on the subway.
她曾在地铁对我微笑
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
虽然她伴着另一个男人
但我不会为此辗转难眠 因为我已有心理准备

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,
cos ill never be with you
你是如此美丽.你是如此美丽,
你是如此美丽,这千真万确.
我曾在人潮拥挤之处瞥见你的脸
这令我不知所措 因为 我和你永远无法相依

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Fucking high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
是的,她占据了我的视线,
在我们擦身而过的瞬间
她应该可以从我的神情看出
我欣喜若狂飞上云霄
我想 我将再也见不到她 但我们共享了这一永恒的片刻

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,
cos ill never be with you
你是如此美丽.你是如此美丽,
你是如此美丽,这千真万确.
我曾在人潮拥挤之处瞥见你的脸
这令我不知所措 因为 我和你永远无法相依

la la la la, la la la la, la la la la laaaaaa

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.
你是如此美丽.你是如此美丽,
你是如此美丽,这千真万确.
我看到了她天使般的微笑,
当她也想到我们应该在一起时
但必须面对现实就是
我你永远无法相依

英文介绍

James Blunt

James Blunt’s family have served in one kind of army or another since 995A.D. A long line of warriors. Savages really. Not a musical bone in any one of their bodies. The only music he heard growing up was “Happy Birthday” and “Silent Night”. His father considered all music, even classical, to be unnecessary noise. Although James was not one to rock the family boat, he didn’t really think he was going to join the army – it sort of crept up on him. Plus his family didn’t have a boat. Aged fourteen he just held the teenage conviction that he would have an interesting life – maybe that’s why he picked the guitar? Then again, maybe if he hadn’t, he would have tripped over it. He went to University and studied Aerospace Manufacturing Engineering and Sociology, spending most lectures asleep on the floor at the back. In much the same way, he ended up in the army. In essence, one day he was sleeping off a hangover at the back of a sociology lecture hall and the next thing he knew he was in Kosovo with a gun and a guitar strapped to the side of a tank, wondering who he could possibly sleep with to get out of this war. To break up the super attenuated monotony, James would sometimes stroll through Serb villages wearing an East German cap singing, “All we are saying is give peace a chance”. “We were peace-keepers at that point,” he explained, shrugging helplessly.

So how did the music get into him, you might ask? Well if you were sent to boarding school aged seven, studied Engineering by mistake (“I thought we were going to fly planes, but we just pulled metals apart – the brochure was very misleading.”), joined the army by default, guarded The Queen, buried The Queen Mother and pranced around London like a tit for Japanese tourists to photograph, what you’re going to want to do very much after that, besides getting stoned and laid, is put your gun down, pick up a guitar and make an album in America with Linda Perry. So James came to Los Angeles in September 2003 to record with Tom Rothrock et al. At night he’d go to bars, bringing with him his valuable British accent (in the U.K., too posh for some people – in LA, the best thing she’d heard all night) and the fact that like 50 Cent he’d been shot at numerous times, but unlike the Cent, had dodged the bullets. One song, “Goodbye My Lover”, was recorded in his landladies’ bathroom (“She was a frequenter of mental hospitals and in general, a freak – but pleasant”) where, naturally, she kept a piano.

From birth in a military hospital in Tidworth, to Harrow School, to Aerospace Manufacturing Engineering, to the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, to The Household Cavalry, to Kosovo, to Buckingham Palace, to a recording studio in Los Angeles. How did James get from there to here? Only James Blunt’s hairdresser knows for certain, and either he isn’t talking or James cuts his own hair, and it’s up to you to join the dots – there are ten of them on the album.

整张专辑都弥漫着一种压抑的气质，却是如此清醒，out of my mind,high,wisemen,goodbye my lover都是很不错的歌，goodbye my lover 以钢琴作伴奏，但至少是成熟了很多的歌了,eg,father of your child...这样的话。

这首歌现在是风靡欧美啊,听澳洲的同学说大街小巷里常听到这首You're Beautiful.Channel V也播到烦啦~!MV挺好的.不过我不喜欢他声音不知道为什么.

我是不明白为什么
you are beautiful的mv就是一直的脱~~~~~~~~~

体会不到导演的用心呀~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

歌曲刚开始听还好~ 但是听不能过5遍~ 会腻~~~~~

我就觉得这个是一个欧美摇滚版本的花样年华~~~~~~~

没有类似那种遗憾恋情的经历，所以听不出个1.2.3.~~~~~~~~~

活活~~~~~~


[em06]

感觉一般的飘过~
感觉一般的贫几下~
感觉一般的~ 不说什么了~
[em01]

说得好~鼓掌!他一直脱估计是因为His life is brilliant~

goodbye my lover lyric

did i disapoint you or let you down
should i be feeling guilty or let the judges frown
cos i saw the end before we began
yes i saw you were blind and i knew i had won
so i took whats mine
by tunnel ride
took yor sould out in to the night
it may be over but it wont stop there,
i am here for you if you only came

you touched my heart you touched my soul
changed my life and all my goals
loves is blind but i knew it
my heart was blinded by you
ive kissed your lips and held your hand
shared your dreams and shared your bed
i know you well i know your smell ive been addicetd to you

goodbye my lover goodbye my friend
you have been the one you have been the one for me
goodbye my lover goodbye my friend
you have been the one you have been the one for me

i am a dreamer and when i wake
you can break my spirit its my dreams you take
and as you move on
remember me, remember us and all we used to be
ive seen you cry ive seen you smile
ive watched you sleeping for a while
id be the father of your child id spend a life time with you
i know your fears and you know mine
weve had our doubts but know were fine
andi love you i swear thats true
i can not live without you

and i still hold your hand and mine when im asleep
and i will bare my sould in time
when im kneeling at your feet

I'm so hollow baby
I'm so hollow
I'm so im so im so hollow
I'm so hollow baby
I'm so hollow
I'm so im so im so hollow

james blunt的歌中含着深深的忧郁，这也是我为之感动的一个原因，2分钟左右那个唱调有种听了深深被打动的感觉......

嗯这首我更喜欢些.

有人拿他跟Keren Ann放一起说...不知道为什么..

是忧郁的气质吗？那首tear and rain 很喜欢。昨天在[v]上看到了goodbye my lover 的mv，果然是很成人......，太热烈了。

其实觉得，好多mv还是留给乐迷自己想象是最好的，有的mv真的泯灭了很多。
