More quotes by James Blunt
I always wanted to be a Muppet. So when 'Sesame Street' approached me to guest star, I thought: 'I'm going to be on this!' It's pretty incredible stuff.
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
I think the things that make me excited are only best when they're shared with people.
James Blunt
Every person I've met has influenced my songs.
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
We see differences in people and seem to be afraid of people. The black or white or gay or straight - I don't necessarily look for differences but for similarities. We need to be looking out for each other.
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
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
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
Honestly if men are given a choice, we'll choose everything.
James Blunt
Being British, I don't really have a way of expressing myself in conversation. Music transcends language.
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
Every time I do an interview, it's like serious therapy. But real therapy isn't something that I'd ever have. I feel fortunate that mentally everything is functioning well.
James Blunt
As a singer-songwriter who gets up on stage and sings about those things that make me vulnerable is an amazing experience. You get up on stage and effectively take your clothes off in front of thousands of people.
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
I think sensitive is the wrong description of me. I'm British, actually, so quite bad at expressing myself in conversation, as any ex-girlfriend will tell you. I'm probably emotionally stunted.
James Blunt
The song is about love, life, fear and hope... and more than anything, you... and me...
James Blunt
I'm pretty sure Adele and James Blunt were dumped by the same man.
James Blunt
No matter whether you are black or white, man or woman, gay or straight, Christian, Muslim, or Jew, we all share the same emotions, the same human condition.
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
