More quotes by James Blunt
In a way song writing can almost be detrimental, because suddenly you find an outlet that is a kind of cheating. You don't need to have direct communication. You can say, 'I can't describe it to you, but I will record it and send it to you.'
James Blunt
Sometimes, reading my own media, the negativity can upset me, but I just deal with things on a positive basis. I mean, I have up to 20,000 people singing my words back to me on a nightly basis - they share my hopes and fears, and they relate to my own life experiences. Life can be pretty isolating, but that connection is always amazing.
James Blunt
This will be my first visit [to Israel]. I've heard it's a special place, that Tel Aviv is exciting and that the atmosphere is excellent....I hope I'll have time to visit the holy places.
James Blunt
The song is about love, life, fear and hope... and more than anything, you... and me...
James Blunt
It's taken a long time but eventually when I had the songs in place and demos right and I found myself a manager, that's when everything started happening quickly but I think that's always the way it is.
James Blunt
Will you be my shoulder when I'm gray and older? Promise me tomorrow starts with you. Getting high, running wild among the stars above. Sometimes it's hard to believe you remember me.
James Blunt

James Blunt
Being British, I don't really have a way of expressing myself in conversation. Music transcends language.
James Blunt
I am a dreamer but when I wake, you can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take

Every person I've met has influenced my songs.
James Blunt
Honestly if men are given a choice, we'll choose everything.
James Blunt
And the one job my father knew of, that he'd had experience of himself, was the Army, so he could help me in that direction.
James Blunt
My parents are still together. I have two sisters. I travel the world and they are the people I speak to.
James Blunt
I think the things that make me excited are only best when they're shared with people.
James Blunt
Mothers always think their children are prettier than they really are, and mine has always told me I look like Tom Cruise.
James Blunt
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
James Blunt
I guess if you're stupid enough to join the army without thinking about getting shot at, then you really are a fool.
James Blunt
I have fun with it and I am honest and open about the way I lead my life and don't mislead anyone. I've had the time of my life and thank God for that, it would be such a waste otherwise.
James Blunt
I don't know how to write without thinking what people would want. You don't know whether they want you to be black or white, so you kind of get a gray, something in the middle.
James Blunt
I don't think I picked up the guitar in the first place as a way of getting women. There are probably better ways of doing it.
James Blunt
