    If you haven't already, pick up James Blunt's CD. It is AWESOME!

    My favs are 'Cry', 'Goodbye My Lover', 'Tears and Rain' and "You're Beautiful'!

    "Cry"I have seen peace. I have seen pain,
    Resting on the shoulders of your name.
    Do you see the truth through all their lies?
    Do you see the world through troubled eyes?
    And if you want to talk about it anymore,
    Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
    I'm a friend.

    I have seen birth. I have seen death.
    Lived to see a lover's final breath.
    Do you see my guilt? Should I feel fright?
    Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?
    And if you want to talk about it once again,
    On you I depend. I'll cry on your shoulder.
    You're a friend.

    You and I have lived through many things.
    I'll hold on to your heart.
    I wouldn't cry for anything,
    But don't go tearing your life apart.

    I have seen fear. I have seen faith.
    Seen the look of anger on your face.
    And if you want to talk about what will be,
    Come and sit with me, and cry on my shoulder,
    I'm a friend.
    And if you want to talk about it anymore,
    Lie here on the floor and cry on my shoulder,
    Once again.
    Cry on my shoulder,
    I'm a friend.

    Well you look younger than me.

    I also just bought the new Chili Peppers and the new Pearl Jam CDs. Also, still cranking out the Weezer CD from last year for my kids on the way to the KH because they like it so much. LOL

    Don't worry, when you get a bit older, you'll like some mushy stuff too!

    Hey, I'm so old that I can't possibly be on either side - my son recorded for a special occasion - Good bye my lover - I love it and it has a profound emotional impact on me - have to be careful when I play it - cause I cry -

    Not really a James Blunt fan, but I do like 'Three Wisemen'

    I didn't mind James Blunt when the album first came out, but having had it played to death on the radio over last year I absolutely loathe it. See if you still like it after 50 times and let me know! I even leave bars if any of the tracks come in thats how much I dislike it now.

    Now Chilli Peppers on the other hand - well I have listened to By The Way more than 50 times and I am still in love with it.

    In one oft he Blunt tracks he sings about his critics or people who didn;t support him when he was trying to break it and says of them "Where are you now?" Well I predict we'll all be able to have that laugh back at him in less time that it takes a pop tart to marry a footballer.

    (Sorry I am ranting - but I just find him and his music so unbearably irritating!)

    I'm black over 40 and I love James Blunt's song "You're Beautiful". And I think he's very handsome! I think that he will be around for a while.

    I like James Blunt a lot. Goodbye My Lover is one of my favorites.

    LMAO at your rant, Crumpet!
