James Blunt (born James Blount in Tidworth, Wiltshire, England on February 22,
1977) is an English musician whose debut album, Back To Bedlam, and single releases
- especially number one hit "You're Beautiful" - brought him to fame in 2005. His style
has been described as a mix of jazz, rock and soul, and comparisons have been made
between him and early Elton John. Along with the vocals of the album, Blunt plays a
variety of instruments including the piano, guitar and organ.
 Early Success
James Blunt's debut single in the UK, "High," peaked below the Top 100 of the UK
Singles Chart. However, the song was chosen to appear in a Vodafone commercial in
Italy, and as a result ended up becoming a Top 10 hit in that country. His second single
"Wisemen" improved upon that position with a #44 peak in the UK.
 
However, it was the third single "You're Beautiful" that became Blunt's breakthrough hit.
The song debuted at #12 in the UK, and demonstrated a rare trend of upward mobility
on the UK charts, rising all the way to the #1 position, six weeks after its debut. The
song also received massive airplay in the UK which was able to propel Back To Bedlam
to #1 on the albums chart, with the special feat of unseating the record-breaking album
X & Y by Coldplay from the pole position.
 
After the success of "You're Beautiful" in the UK, the song crossed over to mainland
Europe, becoming one the biggest hits of summer 2005 across the continent. In the
USA, "You're Beautiful" was only later released to radio, after receiving airplay on WPLJ,
a prominent radio station in New York City. Since then, the single has reached #22 on
the Adult Top 40 chart and #19 on the Adult Contemporary chart.
I know what it means
And I'll carry you home.
I'll carry you home.

Carry You Home


James Blunt
Trouble is her only friend
And he's back again.
Makes her body older
Than it really is.
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 they were all born pretty in New York City


tonight,
And someone's little girl was taken from the world
tonight,
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,
