    James was an army Captain who drove the first tank into Pristina during the Balkans war. He told an American general to f*ck off when he tried to get him to fire on an airfield where it was clear the occupiers were preparing to surrender. Naturally his commanding officer backed him up when the general tried to have him court martialled.

      No you got that a bit mixed up. The US General Wesley Clarke who was in charge of the UN peacekeeping force ordered the British contingent under General Sir Mike Jackson to go and push the Russians off Pristina airport, using force if neccessary. General Jackson told him "no" (allegedly using the full extent of a colourful vocabulary acquired from years in the Parachute Regiment), and got straight on the sat-phone to London, who backed him up 100%. London got on the phone to Washington, and 48 hours later General Clarke was on a plane home.
      Years later, the now retired General Jackson and James Blunt were on a chat show together, and before talking about his latest single, Blunt insisted on thanking General Jackson for saving his life. Jackson looked puzzled, and then Blunt explained that he was the commander of the Scimitar light tank that would have been the first vehicle up the road to Pristina Airport had Jackson not refused Clarke's order.

      I’m 58 never had any kids , was married once for a year and a half many many years ago , never remarried since then and never will again .However if I did have any kids he or she would be 36 this august. I will never know since all that was gone on Dec 17th 1988 . It is what it is though , the past is that past and for the most part I leave it there , but from time to time life reminds me sometimes , even in my dreams .

    James Blunt pulls the emotion right out of you with this one. He writes his songs about what knows very well, his own life. That's what makes him as unique as his distinctive voice, its rare in todays music.

  • @ianstorey8713

    The song is about the daughter he and Sofia lost. He wrote the song as his way of dealing with his grief

  • @Jeff-ge9kt
    @Jeff-ge9kt Před měsícem +8

    I love the way James tells such heartfelt stories that many times are from his own life and experiences. I think this song would help people who have a hard time expressing the grief they have experienced through the loss of a child.

    Don't be afraid to let out your reaction, Lulu. You're young so it's harder to just be comfortable in your own skin. But I encourage you to just feel it and let it show.

    The Girl That Never Was tells a heart-wrenching story of a lost dream. James Blunt and his wife, Sofia Wellesley, longed for a child, but fate had other plans. The lyrics drip with sorrow, regret, and an unfulfilled yearning for the child they never had.

    Some more songs from James, Carry you home (the video is not the same story as the lyrics, both are tragic,) Goodbye my lover, No bravery, Same Mistake and for a glimpse of James sense of humour watch the video for Unstoppable. James is a truly special musician.

    from what i understand, this is true! He says that writing like this is very therapeutic for him! He certainly wears his heart on his sleeve with his music!

    Carry You Home is another great song by him about lan American female soldier in Kosovo that was killed in action that he worked with and became a close friend.
    He hasn't talked about it much, but in an interview years ago he said he was there when it happened and he wept over her and promised to take her home. In another interview he said that he brought her belongings back to the US for the family.

    tried to stop listening to it but couldn't, all I could think of was my two precious angels, one stillborn and one 10 weeks old. 40 years on it still makes me emotional when I think about it. The worst thing about it was in those days we were not allowed to give her a christian name nor were allowed to go to the funeral (The stillborn girl) they told you after where she was buried. Thankfully nowadays they allow the parents and family to attend the service as was the case with my grand daughter who lived 2 hours, the hospital organised the funeral and even for the cars to take us there as we did not have a car at the time. also bless the NHS as it was all free of charge to us as our taxes pay for it irrelevant of whether you pay tax or not.

    My dad was the youngest of eight children , spread out over 26 years . He knew that his Ma had lost four of her six daughters , what he didn't know and I found on Ancestry was that one of them was 8 yo , and a twin was 7 months old , I have yet to find anything on the other set of twins . Grandma's family Bible isn't the original Bible , in the front where you record the marriages and births , only the four surviving children were listed . I can only imagine what she went thru .
