    There are no surprises (other than the lyrics about cutting himself) and nothing all that redeeming to take away from the listen.

    It's more of the same on his second album, a collection so bland, it makes hardtack seem sumptuous.

Blunt is very good at using his own life experiences in his songs - just listen to Same Mistake. This is a talent who isn't selling records, at least this album isn't. Meanwhile, every song off of Rhianna's terrible record is hitting #1. Yes, the state of music today is terrible, and James Blunt is one of the few bright spots.… Full Review »
