James has dismissed media interest in his private life as irrelevant and “unhealthy”. Blunt has seen his love life plastered through the tabloids in recent years, but speaking in the midst of a 14-month world tour, the singer-songwriter said he continues to find media interest in his private life bizarre. “I’ve never read tabloid magazines, but I think it’s a pretty unhealthy practice,” he told inthenews.co.uk. “You and I are not dogs sniffing each other, I’m not interested in your private life, nor should I be, and nor should you be in mine.
“We’re hopefully intelligent human beings, who can talk about, discuss and maybe even achieve much greater things than learning about who you’re shagging. “So, for me, I’ve always stepped away from that and now that I’m in the public eye a bit more, I’ve just tried to ignore it.” He added: “It’s not important and we’ve got many more important things to deal with. I’m not a celebrity, I’m a musician. “Whether you like my music or not, music’s part of our art and our culture, which sets us asides from being animals and is much more relevant.” James Blunt’s new single I Really Want You is out on Monday August 4th. |

I too fine that extremely unhealthy, I also find your appreciation for your fans quite despicable. I once found you admirable and your music sensational, but you along with the rest of the main stream artists forgot who made you …YOUR BLOODY FANS

Hi, I the last week I find out James Blunt exists. I listened his songs, and I need more information to understand them, the context, and I search his biography and all his songs. Unsane? a little, for three days, I felt he was my friend, and he got a place in my heart.

I listened to jb only a few weeks ago, by mistake, and since then I can stop listening. He sends me somewhere, where I wish I could stay for ever.

He is dead on in the matter of more importance. If we spent less time listening and watching OTHER peoples lives, we might figure out how to save our own, each others and the worlds. WAY too many problems to care about who someone is dating. War, poverty, health, species extinction, global warming, do I REALLY need to go on?!? I love his music too, but I take from them what heals me, I dont want to know what he means all the time. That is interpretation and Art, correct? See ya!!!!
