Product Information

Although I owned nearly all versions of this album this was one I missed until now, playing through a great DVD player and an amp with some quality speakers the DVD quality shines through.

Two or three of these tracks are reasonably catchy and uplifting, in a Chris-Martin-on-an-off-day kinda way.

Although not the best of Blunts albums to date he has improved with each release, this being the second of his four studio albums.

Faced with a slew of angry Bluntophiles baying about the fact that we're snobs/haven't listened to the album more than once/don't understand his poor sensitive soul, what can you say?A dynamic, immaculate, back-to-basics LP of addictive melodies and distinctive vocals, it features 10 brand new tracks, including the rousing lead single `1973'. If you are looking for an album that you will still be listening to in ten years time ; a resounding YES. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. A with his acclaimed live band - keyboardist Paul Beard, guitarist Ben Castle, bassist Malcolm Moore, and drummer Karl Brazil - `All The Lost Souls' is inspired by the iconic sounds of the `70s.

Blunt's voice is quite the acquired taste, and nothing on here really stands out or connects from a thematic or lyrical standpoint. After an hour of listening to it exclaim platitudes and clichés over plucked strings and Elton-lite keys, drowning kittens seems like a really fine way to spend the afternoon. The fact is that Blunt rode in on the first wave of a resurgence of olde worlde songcraft and sensitivity that now bursts at the seams with more promising talent.Love, Love, Love" was released as the second single from the deluxe edition of the album, charting in many countries.

But being urged by the posh ex-Army tyke to 'shine on' ("Shine On") and told that we're listening to 'the sound of my breaking heart' ("I Really Want You") frankly doesn't hold much water next to such inadvertently hilarious clunkers as 'Why don't you give me your love? James Blunt - one of the most successful British artists this decade - is back with his first album in 3 years.

Same Mistake' (which was performed before an audience of billions at Live Earth) and the dazzling `I Really Want You'. Listening to it again James Blunt shows what a quality artist he really is, superb writing is his forte and his voice can never be mistaken, a true one off he deserves every accolade he receives. Don't be fooled by those who scorn him as a one hit wonder or say he only appeals to the young girls known for following him around the world making sure they are in the front row at every show. The anthemic 'Shine On' is exquisitely crafted while 'I Can't Hear the Music' hooks into your brain with its James Bond-style orchestration" and finished saying "But snobbery apart, this is a terrific album.Mike Joseph of PopMatters also gave the album four out of ten, and said in part: "Not to say that this album is awful, but there's definitely something lacking here. Several songs on the album were performed at live shows during Blunt's 2006 tours, including "1973", "I Really Want You", "Annie" and "I Can't Hear the Music".
