@@PassportToPimlico he certainly was a brave man for refusing an order from U.S general to fire on Russian peacekeepers protecting Pristina airport in Kosovo.
During a deep depression I had, I was at a bakery and this young lady gave me the biggest smile I'd ever been given in all the years until then. She kept her eyes on me as she walked slowly past and titled her head back to me as she was leaving the store, all whilst keeping her smile. If it hadn't been for my depression, I wouldn't have just smiled back in my shy way, but would have gone after her. That was about 13 years ago now and I have never forgotten that moment in all this time.
Sorry to hear that, Mine was 18 years ago in the early 2000's and starting Junior college. I'm married now but I still think about them all the time and what could of been. 😔💔
My husband used to sing this to me. Ryan couldn't sing, but it was just so sweet. I miss him so much... He passed away last year. Thank you for the beautiful memory.
@@isaicrespin6849 Song always reminds me of Michael from The Office too lol. When he keeps playing the sample clip of the song over and over again. He didnt want to buy the song...he just wanted a taste LOL
James Blunt is a hidden treasure!!! He is one of the most underrated talents ever!! His lyrics are deep and his songs tell stories. Listen to some of his less popular tracks. “ Same Mistake” is my favorite. “Tears and Rain” is beautiful. I actually landed in one of his music videos because I was in the audience. 👍🏻 Hes even better live.
"You get labeled with these things like, 'Oh, James Blunt. Isn't he just a soft romantic?' Well, f*ck that. No, I'm not. 'You're Beautiful' is not this soft romantic f*cking song. It's about a guy who's high as a f*cking kite on drugs in the subway stalking someone else's girlfriend when that guy is there in front of him, and he should be locked up or put in prison for being some kind of perv."
This happened to me ...I still remember the face of a girl from many years ago....we made eye contact and then she was gone forever...I hope she is happy out there somewhere.
@VeryBarry, you're not creepy. This used to happen frequently before people buried their faces in smart phones. What a sad place the world would be if we can't smile at one another. I smile at anyone who seem like nice people (young or old, men or women).
Just some interesting info re James Blunt. James Blunt was a captain in the Life Guards, one of the senior regiments of the British Army, and was in Kosovo in 1999 when Russian troops seized control of the Pristina airport. In an interview with BBC he said: "I was given the direct command to overpower the 200 or so Russians who were there. I was the lead officer with my troop of men behind us. The soldiers directly behind me were from the Parachute Regiment, so they’re obviously game for the fight. The direct command that came in from Gen Wesley Clark was to overpower them. Various words were used that seemed unusual to us. Words such as ‘destroy’ came down the radio.” Blunt told the BBC that he was conflicted by the command and that he would have refused the order. However, the singer never actually had to make that choice. He told the BBC that shortly after Clark gave his command, he heard General Sir Mike Jackson come on the radio and shoot down the order: Blunt said “Fortunately, up on the radio came Gen Mike Jackson, whose exact words at the time were, ‘I’m not going to have my soldiers be responsible for starting World War III’, and told us why don’t we sugar off down the road, you know, encircle the airfield instead. And after a couple of days the Russians there said: ‘Hang on we have no food and no water. Can we share the airfield with you?’.” If Gen Jackson had not blocked the order from Gen Clark, who as Nato Supreme Commander Europe was his superior officer, Blunt said he would still have declined to follow it, even at the risk of a court martial. James left the British Army in 2002 so that he could pursue his musical career.
@@sierraromeoromeo2444 Those were his words posted in previous comment. Some further info is as follows: In 1999, he served as an armoured reconnaissance officer in the NATO deployment in Kosovo. Initially assigned to reconnaissance of the Macedonia-Yugoslaviaborder, Blunt and his unit worked ahead of the front lines directing forces and targeting Serb positions for the NATO bombing campaign. His unit was given the assignment of securing the Pristina International Airport in advance of the 30,000-strong peacekeeping force; the Russian army had moved in and taken control of the airport before his unit's arrival. He did have lead position and if you want to say he is lying that is up to you.
@@sierraromeoromeo2444 Well, I do appreciate your input and first hand experience. As you say, you were in the British military so you know how things are run. I don't know if he misworded what he said or if it was intentional. In any event, I'm glad the whole operation ended peacefully there. Although, I live in the United States I appreciate your service to your Country. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧✌
@@sierraromeoromeo2444 It's not bullshite, my bro just retired from 3 rifles after 26 years serving in the British army. Joined in 1 LI before the merger of regiments. Most squaddies, love the guy and speak highly of him and back up this version of events. I have spoken about this with plenty of squaddies. You don't speak for them all.
@@annb9422 What you said was correct, an ex army officer like Blunt isn't going to lie about this. Honour is still a huge thing in the forces, especially the likes of the British and US forces, without it you are nothing. If he lied about it, he wouldn't be accepted in the British military community afterwards. However, he is accepted, as what you wrote was correct. Windowlicker Supreme is just talking shit frankly.
@@overthewebb Thank you for your information Greg. Yes, I never thought he lied either. He would have no reason to and he took his service very serious and did a good job too. There would be no reason to lie. He didn't need to boost his ego either and like you mentioned honor is very important in the army and other forces in Britain and the USA even afterwards. He did an excellent job during his service. Reading in-depth about that operation was really interesting. Thanks again. 👍🙂
It's a true story actually. He did meet her on the subway. She was her ex girlfriend and she was with her husband. She recognized him and he did too, as the first time they saw each other. So wonderful song!
My understanding is this is a true story about James and a woman he loved. He was obsessed with her, loved her but wasn't stalking her. He met her by chance with another man on a subway.
@The Beast Go check out the interview with him about the song. He says it's about a guy who's high as f*ck, following another woman. A stalker song. His words, not mine.
This is from an interview James had wherein he explains the song: Blunt said “You’re Beautiful” wasn’t actually a romantic song. “It’s always been portrayed as romantic, but it’s actually a bit creepy,” he opined. “It’s about a guy (me) who’s high and stalking someone else’s girlfriend on the subway. But everyone has those moments where you wonder: ‘What if I’d said something?'”
Nothing creepy about finding a girl attractive and going after her. Women often leave one guy for someone that they think can offer more, so the whole 'she has a boyfriend' thing rings hollow coming from women.
I played his album Back To Bedlam to death when it came out. Other songs from it you might really like are No Bravery, Tears and Rain, Cry, Goodbye My Lover, High... Oh, just get the whole album out for a listen 😁
I thank James Blunt every time I hear that song. If you listen close enough you'll hear it's a song about unrequited love. Which is a dangerous feeling that a lot of people my age and younger are forced to endure. So I'm thankful that someone with a talent like his could get the message out to the world on just how painful unrequited love can be. Thank you James Blunt.
This will always be one of my favourite songs, and him one of my favourite artists❤️❤️❤️BEAUTIFUL song and BEAUTIFUL voice. I remember writing down the lyrics to this song with my cousim 10 years ago, on a notebook with other lyrics as well. HEARING THIS BRINGS BACK SO MANY MEMORIES!!!
First time I saw the video, my thoughts were that it must be ****ing freezing! Since then, learning more about him, what he's done, and seen just how hilarious he is, got a lot of respect for him.
Big James blunt fan. Anything from the all lost souls album you Absolutely love. From beginning to end, it’s a masterpiece from him. But Courtney song off his the Afterlove album, gives you made chills.
I love this song. It reminds me of someone specific that I worked with and this is exactly how I felt and still feel about her. For me, it wasn't a passing glance, but it was all out infatuation that I couldn't act on.
OOh one of my faves back in the day, try also Savage Garden. There two hits were: Truly, Madly, Deeply. And also I knew I loved you before I met you. Great love at first sight songs.
@@phillipbailey70 No it doesn't make you a bad person, I can assure you are not a bad person. I didn't get where I am today by not being able to spot a bad person when I see one.
That voice, the lyrics and James gorgeous eyes. You reacted the same way I did when he jumped into the water. So profoundly sad. This video blew me away when I first saw it!
"You get labeled with these things like, 'Oh, James Blunt. Isn't he just a soft romantic?' Well, f*ck that. No, I'm not. 'You're Beautiful' is not this soft romantic f*cking song.

Thank you, I love this song choice! It probably sounds silly, but I used to sing this song to my little dog who passed away last year. I always love your reactions to these great songs, India! Thanks for your great work here! 💕
JAMES BLUNT BEAUTIFUL & MOVING SONG MADE ME REALIZED. HOW LOVE CAN MAKE ONE HAPPY & ALSO IT CAN BE PAINFUL , IT MADE ME CRY SINCE PRESENTLY I'M GOING THROUGH A PERIOD IN MY LIFE IN WHICH I DON'T KNOW IF I WILL EVER SEE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE WE HAVEN'T SEEN EACH OTHER PHYSICALLY FOR 13 YRS & 2 DAYS THERE CAN' T BE A REUNION WE BOTH DON'T KNOW ADRESSES OR, PHONE #ERS SINCE WE SPLIT IN JULY 15 2007 & we still love each other...
@Steve actually no james himself has said this is about a creep who sees a girl he likes with her boyfriend and he thinks anybody who thinks this is a sweet love song is a sick person
@@josephdolman thats not the real story... he said that , but if you did some research you would find out that the woman in question he saw was an ex girlfriend of his.
@@josephdolman Blunt said of the song, "It's kind of miserable. It was about seeing my ex-girlfriend on the Underground in London with her new man, who I didn't know existed. She and I caught eyes and lived a lifetime in that moment, but didn't do anything about it and haven't seen each other since.
"You get labeled with these things like, 'Oh, James Blunt. Isn't he just a soft romantic?' Well, f*ck that. No, I'm not. 'You're Beautiful' is not this soft romantic f*cking song. It's about a guy who's high as a f*cking kite on drugs in the subway stalking someone else's girlfriend when that guy is there in front of him, and he should be locked up or put in prison for being some kind of perv." I never quite saw it the way James saw it 😄
You need to react to goodbye my lover by him! 😢. He was in the British army a long time ago, his Twitter is worth a follow/ he gets lots of grief on there but his reply’s are savage 😂
You should listen to 'Monsters' with the video of his father who he wrote this song for as his father was seriously ill and needed a kidney to survive. Also 'The Greatest' with the video showing a tribute to hospital staff all over the world during the pandemic. Both are fantastic.
It was his ex- girlfriend that he saw a few years after they split up. AND IT IS A TRUE STORY. He saw her on the subway and went home and wrote the song about the ex.

Its such a connection...I fell in love and borderlined obsession myself..sometimes you can fall for someone that hard over something simple and it can take over you completely. I never did anything creepy granted, didn't stalk, gave space. But I was so in love I couldn't stop thinking about her and couldn't let go when it ended. I was obsessed. But I was in love. And the ending just hits even harder, that your emotions can get so crazy and you can be so lost, it's like being under water. And sometimes without her, you just want to jump..because what else is there but her? I still love her. But we haven't spoken in years and we won't again. I've accepted it and moved on. But it can still be hard not to have a thought on her. Obsession and love are so similar, they walk hand in hand. It's an experience you can only truly understand if you've experienced it before.
My first love sent me this song when we bagan our relationship. It made me tear up back then but now it makes me cry since the “I will never be with you” part happened .💔
2:32 I’m so used to the uncensored version of the song, also I just noticed the video is him leaving his belongs behind and when he jumps in the water he’s actually killing himself I never noticed that until right now
You may also like James Bay, starting with " Hold Back The River" (Official music video). And if you like that, you may like Ella Henderson, "Ghost" (official video). Also, Ella's version of "Believe" by Cher, is SO good.
I can relate, once (25 years ago) I was walking out of a crowded Hospital lobby in Houston and saw a Woman, obviously from India, with the most perfectly beautiful face I have ever seen, coming in. It was only 10 seconds and I will never forget it.
on his latest album there's a follow up song (14 yrs later) called Cold which is a follow up to this song shot in the exact same spot...it's a must see India!!

That's why you never let moments like that pass... If you catch someones eyes and exchange smiles, you walk up to her / him immediately 😉
Do you mean happy that she once saw you?
She is so wonderful to watch
You should check out more of his music, like "OK", "High", "Wisemen" and "Same mistake"...he has a lot of great stuff. Great vid! Keep it up!

@@josephdolman Blunt said of the song, "It's kind of miserable. It was about seeing my ex-girlfriend on the Underground in London with her new man, who I didn't know existed. She and I caught eyes and lived a lifetime in that moment, but didn't do anything about it and haven't seen each other since.
I love love this song. One of my all time favorites. I was hooked when I heard the guitar. I love the story behind this song.
"You get labeled with these things like, 'Oh, James Blunt. Isn't he just a soft romantic?' Well, f*ck that. No, I'm not. 'You're Beautiful' is not this soft romantic f*cking song. It's about a guy who's high as a f*cking kite on drugs in the subway stalking someone else's girlfriend when that guy is there in front of him, and he should be locked up or put in prison for being some kind of perv."
I never quite saw it the way James saw it 😄
facinating voice- a surprise seeing the video.....
I love his voice so much and this is my favorite song of his, this is the first time seeing a video of this, made me want to cry
You need to react to goodbye my lover by him! 😢. He was in the British army a long time ago, his Twitter is worth a follow/ he gets lots of grief on there but his reply’s are savage 😂
Your reaction was beautiful. This was a moment in time that took forever. Like time stopping and for that moment knew true love existed.
I've never known who sang this. Glad you chose this to react to. ❤ from Your over 50 club. LOL
You should listen to 'Monsters' with the video of his father who he wrote this song for as his father was seriously ill and needed a kidney to survive. Also 'The Greatest' with the video showing a tribute to hospital staff all over the world during the pandemic. Both are fantastic.
Yeah. Listen to Goodbye My Lover. I think that is one of his best song I've ever heard.
I know this was a couple of years ago, but very apt your reacting to your beautiful, when your beautiful
Cada día me enamoro mas de tus vídeos !!
I love when I know the emotion might be coming up... not crying
Your shirt! Love it! Right on right on..
more, carry you home, no tear, monster of James Blunt
Beautiful song and a great man. "It's love at first sight and life without her isn't worth living" great song
It was his ex- girlfriend that he saw a few years after they split up. AND IT IS A TRUE STORY. He saw her on the subway and went home and wrote the song about the ex.
You're wrong
@@jaretzyzc8907 How do you know that?

Love your facial expressions!
Its such a connection...I fell in love and borderlined obsession myself..sometimes you can fall for someone that hard over something simple and it can take over you completely. I never did anything creepy granted, didn't stalk, gave space. But I was so in love I couldn't stop thinking about her and couldn't let go when it ended. I was obsessed. But I was in love. And the ending just hits even harder, that your emotions can get so crazy and you can be so lost, it's like being under water. And sometimes without her, you just want to jump..because what else is there but her? I still love her. But we haven't spoken in years and we won't again. I've accepted it and moved on. But it can still be hard not to have a thought on her. Obsession and love are so similar, they walk hand in hand. It's an experience you can only truly understand if you've experienced it before.
James Blunt is one of my favorite artist. He has some great songs about love and heartbreak. And break up tear jerkers.
This song rips my heart out but that's why I love it ..
Amazing reaction! James has an absolutely angelic voice. As a former officer in the British military the transition to music shocked a lot of people.
My first love sent me this song when we bagan our relationship. It made me tear up back then but now it makes me cry since the “I will never be with you” part happened .💔
2:32 I’m so used to the uncensored version of the song, also I just noticed the video is him leaving his belongs behind and when he jumps in the water he’s actually killing himself I never noticed that until right now
you gotta react to james blunts "Goodbye my Lover". it'll totally hit you in the feels!
Love your reaction India your face says it all babe,such an underrated singer James blunt,also please try to react to his new tune monsters wow
This song and goodbye my lover got me through my mom's passing when I was in college. Heard it on repeat.
India I think you would LOVE Kodaline - All I Want. The video is great too
Perfect reaction as always
You may also like James Bay, starting with " Hold Back The River" (Official music video). And if you like that, you may like Ella Henderson, "Ghost" (official video). Also, Ella's version of "Believe" by Cher, is SO good.
Ohh and James Bay and Julia Michaels together with Peer Pressure - OMG I love that song and its so sensual!!
James Blunt Monsters please! Love your reactions India. 💕Another very personal song for him.
James Blunt "No Bravery" is definitely one of his to react to. So intense. Haven't heard it for years, but it stuck with me.
I can relate, once (25 years ago) I was walking out of a crowded Hospital lobby in Houston and saw a Woman, obviously from India, with the most perfectly beautiful face I have ever seen, coming in. It was only 10 seconds and I will never forget it.
Always loved this song ❣️❣️❣️
He is a wonderful singer, India. I’m also recommending Goodbye My Lover.
I have so much respect for this man a soldier a songwriter and such a great voice
James blunt was a guardsman in the Queens household guard
on his latest album there's a follow up song (14 yrs later) called Cold which is a follow up to this song shot in the exact same spot...it's a must see India!!
I can guarantee you'll cry if you listen to James Blunt - Monsters. And then when you know the story behind it, you'll cry even more.
