Podcast: The Great Creators with Guy RazPublished On: Tue Nov 28 2023
Description: When James Blunt released "You're Beautiful" in 2004, it quickly became the most popular song in the world. The album it was on, Back to Bedlam, became the best selling album of the 2000s in the UK. But James was already in his 30s when that song broke, and before that he lived a completely different life. In this episode, you'll hear about James' time in the British army leading NATO troops in Kosovo, his stint as one of Queen Elizabeth's ceremonial bodyguards, and how he randomly became roommates with Carrie Fisher while recording his first album.Links from the show:James in Kosovo in 1999You're BeautifulGoodbye My LoverJames' new album Who We Used To BeDark ThoughtThe Girl That Never WasLoosely Based on a Made-Up StoryJames' Pub The Fox and PheasantSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
