Description

British singer-songwriter James Blunt shot to fame in 2005 with his single You're Beautiful and album Back To Bedlam, and since then he remained the top of the U.K singles chart.

Brief Introduction

James Hillier Blount, or James Blunt as we know him, was born Feb.22, 1977 in Hampshire, England. Before James Blunt became a musician, he served in the army to fight for Queen and country. James spent four and a half years in the military, with six months in Kosovo as part of the peace keeping force. Upon leaving the army, James decided to pursue his dream of becoming a musician. In 2003 he was spotted by music producer Linda Perry who signed him to her Custard label. However, the road to success never runs smooth. James looked destined to become another struggling singer trying to scrape a living when his first two singles failed to make an impact on the British charts. But everything changed when his third single You're Beautiful, made it all the way to number one on the U. K. singles chart, and remained there for five weeks. The album Back To Bedlam soon followed and quickly became one of the biggest selling records of the year, remaining ten consecutive weeks at number one. Since then he has sold over three million records, which made him the first UK artist March 2006 and topped the US singles chart since 1997.
