therobbieSep 19, 2007I don't think this album is as bad as you say... It has some strong moments and its quite good if you want some easy listening.

MatthewP.Sep 21, 2007This album was never going to reach the standards of Back to Bedlam but it isn't a bad attempt! I just think it is really sad that people are judging this album purely because mr blunt is a bit weird! These people are obviously NME readers and deserve nothing but to listen to babyshambles and wank over drugs! For chris c aswell, ryan adams one of the most important artists of our generation.

JoelJ.Sep 22, 2007Reminds me of some of the music from the 60's and 70's. A good thoughtful songwriter with simple but good backup from his band. A nice change of pace.

JohnC.Oct 6, 2007Seems like a lot of people don't like the person and are reviewing with that bias in mind. The album itself is great, its better than most of the things i've heard this year. Yes, the songs can be considered on the safe side but theres no throw away tracks or skits to make the cd longer. Give it a try.

EricSep 18, 2007James Blunt is an amazing talent. His music and lyrics are so good it gives me goosebumps. Blunt is real and honest and it comes through in his music.

DannyEightSep 19, 2007I still think this album goes better under the category of pop rather than rock and that he's done considerably well after such a great/annoying hit like You're Beautiful. My favorite song has to be I Really Want You.

CultSep 22, 2007A worthy sophomore effort. For fans of his voice and style, nothing on this album will disappoint. The songs are catchy, his emotive vocal style still catches the ear, and the lyrics are striking and personal.

MatthewT.Sep 23, 2007James is one of the best writers of music I've every listened to, he is amazing, I didn't think he'd ever compete to Back to Bedlam.. but what do you know.. he proved himself!

PeterK.Sep 27, 2007The lyrics are repetitive and simplistic, but the music is good. I understand his harsh critics points of view, but as I'm not usually interested in pop music I lack the knowledge to judge from a genuinely critical position.

stevenp.Sep 27, 2007This record by james blunt blew me away... i really think he's touching on something special here. 2007 has brought a lot of bad records to the table (the reminder, panda bears' person pitch, friend opportunity) but this new effort by james blunt is a truly refreshing listen! i believe it will deservedly be held among the years best, and will be fondly remembered in the years to come.

SandraSep 27, 2007The guy is handsome, smart, writes most of his own songs, dates models, and is successful. There's a lot for men to envy with this guy -- and the reviews by men are almost universally dripping with malice and personal put-downs. I love this album as much as his first. Bet he sells a bundle of these CD despite the critics.

CarmelCJan 18, 2008Awwh its a heartfelt cd that I am sure was started with great passion hopefully his passion and depth will continue I am sure the 3rd cd will be fab as well. James you're far too hard on yourself, you're by no means a 0 its 10 all the way luv.

CherylW.Dec 18, 2007It is not as good as the first one, but the average is not bad at all. Excellent work for listeners. Like 1973, this is the best piece, but i am still waiting a piece as good as Goodbye my Lover.

Jun 29, 2012The start off is brilliant and goes up to the 5th track then there is sharp fall down in the tracks 6 and 7.................the ending is perfect i don't know why but i liked that song very much... :)
-
Dec 26, 2012The best album I've heard in my life.

Jul 27, 2017James Blunt's best album so far. A great evolution after the well-made "Back to Bedlam", that is already an amazing album. "All The Lost Souls" is a extremely deep, intense, emotional, and nicely executed album.
Awards & Rankings
-
Here's a set that suggests rock has got its head screwed on straight again, that the path to real feelings need not necessarily be led by Norah Jones.
-
He shows the abandon and confidence of a long-term artist, not just a one-hit wonder.
-
Entertainment WeeklyLost improves on the first disc at least five times over, partly because its starker focus might really take you back to...well, certainly not a club, but maybe an AM radio-equipped kid's bedroom circa 1973. [21 Sep 20007, p.80]
