    You could award Adele an Olympic Vocal Medal...

    I'd love to see Adele do a Soul album - Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin, that sort of thing.

    He was on Top Gear last week.

    Jeremy read out some of his tweets to people who abused him.

    Tweet: James Blunt has a stupid voice and annoying face!

    Blunt: And no mortgage!

    If never sounds quite right if you hear someone you liked in your youth saying they just wanted to "go home and have a hot chocolate".......:o

    His twitter feed is quite good, he searches for people giving him abuse and he replies sarcastically to him. Fair play.

    And he saved the World.

    He seems to have become a hit on twitter, with his witty comebacks...his music's still rubbish though :D

    Damn kids and their hula hoops!

    Look at that hand-on-hand action!

    I've never read him on the Tweet Machine but I love a witty man.

    And his music is rubbish.

    I myself never thought I'd see the day when I'd be looking forward to the Saturday Night Show beside the fire.

    What's happened to me? :-D

    Ah i think he gets a lot of flak unfairly.

    50 years later, Joe Brown still has the same haircut :D

    Is this a chronicle of rock music from the 50's to now.
    Kinda broad.

    Edit: wouldn't want it as a Mastermind subject.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,705 ✭✭✭✭Welsh Megaman


    Rock 'n' roll will never catch on...long live skiffle!

    They should archive all B&W recordings until someone has time to colour them all in.

    I agree, he's not the worst.

    He can handle the flak - he took plenty of flak when he was in Bosnia. Where he saved the world.

    You can laugh, if you wanna laugh.

    But it's thanks to James Blunt that you are here to laugh ;)

    Sad, isn't it?

    We need a heavy rock band to give the music industry a swift kick in de balls :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,444 ✭✭✭✭Skid X


    It's a flimsy enough topic for a documentary ... Musicians who were in Rock Bands didn't stay young forever.

    It's so true.

    The Darkness gave it a good go a few years back. Went to see them in The Olympia a few months back. Outstanding, shame they broke up after two albums for a few years.
