    Finally James is getting some recognition. I would suggest to watch some live performances, they’re even better and he played the piano. He’s such a passionate singer. Maybe next his most famous song “ you’re beautiful “.

  • @KajunMoo70

    This song is about a girl Blunt dated, but he wrote it years after the relationship ended. When he appeared on the UK show Songbook, Blunt explained: "I guess it's a realization that you'll never be with someone, but the frustration that they are still alive and out there in the world. It can be an incredibly painful idea - I sat with the song for quite a long time. But for me, it's probably my most personal song. Whereas 'You're Beautiful' is about a moment, one second in time of passing that person, the song 'Goodbye My Lover' is about a lifetime's worth of emotion, the fact that that relationship is over, and that life continues. And yeah, it's the most personal song on Back To Bedlam."

    You should listen to "No Bravery". He wrote it while serving on the front lines of the Kosovo War with Nato. It's powerful.
    Honestly the entire Back To Bedlam album is amazing. Especially live. I love "1973" as well.

    I think it's a common misconception that his partner died and it does take on a much sadder slant if that's what you feel. I believe it's more metaphorical than that but that's the beauty of this song, we can all get our own meaning from it.
    Initially I was never a fan of JB but my wife persuaded me to go and see him live and I rapidly changed my opinion.
    I like the track No Tears - not many people ever mention that one

    " Carry You Home" "Your Beautiful" I LOVE James Blunt. Both James and his father were officers in the British Army. James was a recognizance officer in Kosovo. He actually took his guitar with him and wrote these earlier songs.

    Sometimes people axe out a former partner to avoid feeling the pain of any lingering regrets. We're being told to "feel good" all the time, we don't know how to sit with sadness or sorrow any more. But in not recognizing the sorrow, we miss holding on to the good that underlies the sorrow or sadness. We don't get sad about losing bad things, do we? If you're sad or sorrowful, it means there's an element of good that's there to be found.

  • @SAM-dg3vd
    @SAM-dg3vd Před 10 měsíci

    This is JUST my opinion... haven't ever read anything more, but when the song starts he says
    I saw the end, before we'd begun
    Yes, I saw you were blind and I knew I had won
    So I took what's mine by eternal right
    Took your soul out into the night
    My interpretation of that is he was kind of a player... and when he first got her to go out with him, he loved the victory and thought he'd just cut her loose when he was "done". She went into the relationship honestly and giving him everything, and he played with her emotions. But when she finally said "Enough, I'm done", he realized how much she'd actually meant to him, how much he really loved her. And she was just never going to go back there because he'd damaged the trust she felt for him. So he's mourning how much he lost because he knows it was all his fault.

    I disagree with you on your definition of pop. Pop, short for popular it's basically a genre that encompasses music that can't be defined, maybe combines multiple other genres, but it can be good, it's not just "bastardised" music, but it is fairly middle of the road music, but it can be great, think Madonna, Elton John, George Michael. Sure you can place them and the music that influences these artists as coming from other genres - blues, soul, jazz, but I the end that's just where they've come from.
    Just as The Beatles came from genres that were around before they were formed, in their formative years, the best pop artists do the same. I feel your comments are, just like with me, a need to categorise everything into distinct categories when music (and life in general) isn't that easy, you can't just put things into boxes with clearly defined boundaries, there is a spectrum and often the best music can partly fit into a number of categories, but it is popular, so it's pop because it doesn't contain enough elements of love category to fit into just one.

    • @mattpotter8725
      @mattpotter8725 Před 2 lety

      Further to my previous commenti think any genre can be "bastardised", reduced to a formula to which a huge amount of music can be output all sounding very similar. Bad, generic music is just bad music, but to just assume that this is only in the pop genre is wrong.

    • @antonreacts
      @antonreacts  Před 2 lety

      My thoughts on pop is its just a writing style, usually catering to commercial success. What pop "typically" means to be is commercial successful music that generally follows the basic verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, final chorus structure. Because it doesn't seem to be a genre. But pop over the past 20 years has tendered to create a recognizable sound usually sound tenor vocals and an electronic backing you know?

    • @mattpotter8725
      @mattpotter8725 Před 2 lety

      @@antonreacts I think your wrong, but I can understand why you've come to that conclusion, it's that mass produced commercial music, like say Stock Aitken Waterman of the 1980s, follows a formula, and you could tell a track from that stable pretty much just by hearing the songs. I just don't think it was all so formulaic.
      There was also plenty of commercially successful rock, heavy metal music that made it into the upper echelons of the charts but that wasn't labelled pop (and I'd also say that many of those songs also follow your pattern). Therefore it must be that the music that couldn't be categorised as something else was labelled pop, because it was popular, successful, but not easily pigeon holed (I'd also say that it had a certain sound).
      I guess you could also say that pop really equates to easy listening, I've heard that used a lot as well, and that too is very defined. Finally I also think that if you enough genres you can define anything and then you don't need a category that catches everything else, and if something does come along that doesn't fit into any existing genre you just create a new one. But I think there are at least 80s and 90s (maybe even through to today) that can be identified as pop the sound of the music, the instrumentation and the lyrics, which aren't structured identically, that don't follow a set pattern.

    This song is about a girl Blunt dated, but he wrote it years after the relationship ended. When he appeared on the UK show Songbook, Blunt explained: "I guess it's a realization that you'll never be with someone, but the frustration that they are still alive and out there in the world. It can be an incredibly painful idea - I sat with the song for quite a long time. But for me, it's probably my most personal song. Whereas 'You're Beautiful' is about a moment, one second in time of passing that person, the song 'Goodbye My Lover' is about a lifetime's worth of emotion, the fact that that relationship is over, and that life continues. And yeah, it's the most personal song on Back To Bedlam." James Blunt lived with actress Carrie Fisher while he recorded Back To Bedlam; he met her through a family friend. In the Radio Times February 10, 2006, James Blunt described how he recorded this song in Carrie Fisher's bathroom: "For 'Goodbye My Lover,' we needed a piano. There wasn't one in the home studio we recorded in but Carrie had one in her bathroom. So I said, Let's get the home studio and spend the night in there. It was a good acoustic - that's why people sing in the shower. And it sounds great to me - that's what's on the album." If you think the person Blunt is singing about in this song is dead, you're not the only one; Blunt says he gets asked that a lot. He says the girl he's singing about is very much alive, but the grieving in the song gives the impression of death…
