I was round my friends house when she put this album on the CD player. After a few glasses of wine I thought the songs all seemed to sound the same. Maybe this was the effect of the wine? I really only recognised 'You're Beautiful'.
For my birthday, the same friend presented me with the James Blunt - Back to Bedlam album saying that it's the best album she has brought this year. (This was 2005). Ummmmm.
When I had a moment to myself, I decided to play this album of love songs. I had heard 'You're Beautiful' played many times before on the radio and TV. I knew that one! Here's a list of the others on the album:
Song 1: High
Song 2: You're Beautiful
I am very fond of this song. I was on a plane heading towards Majorca. I really don't like flying. On the inflight TV this video was playing. He's on the edge of a cliff and takes most of his clothes off and throws them into the sea, then he leaps off into the sea. Maybe not so good to watch when flying!
Song 3: Wisemen
Song 4: Goodbye My Lover
Song 5: Tears and Rain
Song 6: Out of my mind
Song 7: So long Jimmy
Song 8: Billy
Song 9: Cry
Song 10: No Bravey
I love 'Goodbye My Lover', love it ,love it. Also 'Your're Beautiful', 'High' and 'Billy'.
It's one of those albums where you recognise the songs as you hear them. If you don't recognise them, there's parts in the songs that are catchy.
They are all about love and lovers and lovers leaving, very easy to listen to.
