This man can paint with words. And his voice is so distinctive. And the line "if somebody doesn't think like me it doesn't make them the enemy." If only people realize the son and the moon shines for everyone. TX Saeed. Greetings from South Africa
Sorry for making you feel heavy, I just feel these songs and these type of songs needs to be heard and they don't get any attention because of the subject matter. James has been fighting an uphill battle where nobody wanted to sign him because of his topics. This should be wide spread! He got signed by a very small label "custard" with the help from Princess Leia, Carrie Fisher (I will request that tribute song as well). Stay strong buddy, cheers ❤
Totally agree that these need to be heard. All sides must be heard. Respect to James Blunt for making songs like these and standing up for what he believes in. Thanks again! ❤️ Truly appreciate the support and also discovering these important songs.
James definitely doesn't shy away from difficult & heavy topics and he does it so beautifully. He has said writing these songs helps him deal with his own trauma which I can completely understand. Music can be so healing as well as influential in opening minds & making real progress towards much needed changes in the world. Thank you so much for your heartfelt reaction!💛
Your thoughtful reaction to this assures me that you will want to see Dimash's 13:40 masterpiece, "The Story of One Sky." Three years in the making, millions spent to produce it and a message the whole world needs to see and hear. Dimash is an ambassador of peace and "The Story of One Sky" is a music video he simply had to make.
And also, I have to give you cred for both the reactions AND the fact that you never "nag" about like and subscribe 😅 I didn't even know you had a patreon until yesterday and being a youtube noob, I had to actively go and find where to buy you coffees 😅 Kudos! You are a real down to the earth guy and that is my kind of guy 😊
Thanks, appreciate that. And for reminding me, from now on i will mention it at the start and end of every video! Just kidding 😅. Great to connect with like minded people. Respect! 👊
James says the same thing when interviewers ask him to side with one side of a conflict or another. He says he sides with the innocent because they are hurt the most.
I 100% agree, Saeed. Not only are they profiting from others' suffering, but they are enjoying it, and that enrages me. It's not the poor innocent people around the world that causes this negativity. It's the damn people in power. I won't delve into that any further, because I know you, and mostly everyone else is aware of this. Never feel you have to apologize for your feelings, young man. It's what makes you human, and what draws us to you. Thank you 😊❤
Hi Saeed. I have watched a lot of reactions to songs that move me BUT never subscribed until today. I just watched your No Bravery reaction followed by this one (Which I hadn't heard before and I have listened to quite a few of his). The thoughts and feelings you expressed match mine in every way. Wars only hurt the innocent and destroy lives but never destroy those who instigate or profit from them. I will never 'pick a side' I will always pick the innocent. I have been on the receiving end of discrimination and even abuse in the last decade. The powers that be have made the disabled, those who are on benefits despite working their backsides off in a low paying job supposed pariahs of society. Those workers are told train and get better jobs but without them the country would grind to a halt. Where would we be without supermarket staff, cleaners, porters, nurses, bin men etc etc you would have thought the pandemic would have taught people that but they are quick to forget. Lets also be honest who chposes to be in a wheelchair (me as of 6 years ago) who chooses to be so severely autistic they can't even speak not my son or daughter (in fairness my daughter can speak she has other problems). The prejudice, bigotry and racism seem to be actively encouraged in my country now and it breaks my heart to witness. We are all human beings it doesn't matter what the outside is like, what religion they are even what sexuality they are ALL that matters is their heart nothing else. I am a bit of a nerd and a huge Doctor Who fan my favourite being the Twelfth Doctor he speaks only of kindness he also has a wonderful speech in an episode called the Zygon Inversion it says everything that should ever be said about war. Sorry I rambled a bit there I just wanted to say thank you and for the first time ever I have subscribed to a reactor you moved this old woman (well 55 so not old just feel it 😂).
Thanks so much for subscribing. Honored to be the first reactor you subscribed to 🙏🏽❤️ And also for sharing your feelings and insights on this matter. I fully agree. Have a wonderful day!
Got tickets for James 2025 so excited can’t wait to see him live in Scotland 🏴 tried so hard for Ibiza tickets where he lives all sold out James is a poet and god of music.
Genuine, heartfelt compassion in your reaction. I felt myself tearing up during that video. The polarization and insidious push to hate, as James Blunt sings about, is real. It’s bothered me since I was a little girl but I find even close family members fall for it with scarcely a thought. It troubles me because my folks weren’t like that. The world needs more people like you and James Blunt. He’s become one of my very favorite artists, not just because I like his music, but because he seems like a genuinely good person. You express yourself well too. Keep up the good work.
It is truly a very powerful and moving song. James is an amazing artist and human being. Thanks so much for watching and the kind words. Have a wonderful day.
Powerful song and video. I hadn't seen this one before. Loved hearing your thoughts on it. You are absolutely correct. There are too many wars and they all blend in together, and that is really sad and messed up. But war is a huge money maker for some people and those people tend to have the power. More people need to see and listen to this message 💜💜
I have relistened to this reaction at least a half-dozen times because almost no one else is reacting to it. That's shameful, to me. More people need to hear this song and more people need to react to it so their listeners will have a chance to hear this message from James, a reminder to remember and to do our part to change our thinking about others whom we may not understand. Thank you for doing your part.
Thanks so much for watching! It is truly a powerful and very important song. These are songs that i probably couldnt listen to daily, but i do find it important to explore songs on the channel that cover difficult topics. Much respect to the artists who make these type of songs.
I would never ever slam a door on you or anyone especially you a kind loving generous understanding human and a cute one at that we all have to stand together and sing the same song. Love is the answer love of everyone. ❤

James said in an interview from 2009: “The greatest quality anyone can possibly have is compassion for other human beings.”
That is beautiful and i definitely agree.

Well said. He is so good at this. Really mastered his craft.
