James Blunt,出生在军人家庭,从英国布里斯托大学毕业后,在推出这张经典专辑之前,他加入军队并一路升到上尉,担任过英国女王亲卫队,也曾被派驻到德国科索沃目睹血腥内战,并成为第一个派遣到普利斯提纳的英国军官,领导三万人的和平部队。当歌曲快结束时,随着歌曲最后一句歌词"我知我不可能再拥有你”
James Blunt便一跃而下向悬崖边里的海面跳去。
这支音乐录影带在英国引起高度讨论,有人认为他跳下悬崖的原因,是无法拥有心仪女生而有如此表现,但也有人认为这是他对战争的无言抗议,暗指他在任职军官时,被派至科索沃目睹当地血腥内战的伤痛回忆。
有人认为,歌词中美丽的你指的就是科索沃,在经过内战摧残后,再也不见这块美丽的土地,以一句”我知我不可能再拥有你”来暗指科索沃这块分裂的土地再也难回到之前的美丽。
James Blunt《You're Beautiful》点击下载
My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
F**king high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you
