Review:



I love the paltry emotions, I wish I had such an ability to simplify my inner life like this. Souls in the 
night, I am here for you if you only care, you have been the one, I have seen fear and I've seen trouble, 
I have seen peace, I have seen pain, do you see truth do you see the world through troubled eyes, I'd 
spend a life time with you, I cannot live with out you. What does all this stuff mean? What is James 
Blunt's soul, what does it do? What is "a life time" in James Blunt's songs, is it a period of time like 
the time it takes to eat a meal, or make a journey (everyone likes a journey), or is it more like a small 
object? How does one "spend" such an intangible thing? I would understand if he said some thing 
like "I'd go to the cinema with you", and might accept such a proposal but a "life time"?  I think it is just 
a meaningless concept. Any way all this meaninglessness in the songs is very up lifting and gooey 
but I just wonder what James thinks he means by singing this stuff. I WANT ONLY MEANINGLESS 
NONSENSE IT IS MUCH NICER.
