James Blunt is NOT Punk or metal, so why am I obsessed?  | | | | I am a huge fan of punk bands like Rise Against, As I Lay Dying, Senses Fail, Billy Talent, Thrice, My Chemical Romance, etc.. I am also a huge fan of Marilyn Manson, KoRn, Cannibal Corpse, Dying Fetus, etc... I recently was at a friends house and he played a James Blunt song for me that made my knees weak and I almost cried. Since then I rushed home and downloaded every song of his that I could find. Each song I have listened to I love. I find myself putting on the James Blunt playlist I have made and repeating it. His words are so beautiful, his voice passionate, the subjects that he sings about are unique but I can feel it and understand. Does anyone else lvoe James Blunt or have another singer that is out of their genre that they can't get enough of? | | | | | | | | | | Local Coupons Ridiculously huge deals every day.

| | I do not and can not understand the obsession with this guy. Every girl I know just adores him and without a reason why. They say he adds something new and fresh? Well, where is it? I don't hear it! His songs are nothing different, in fact they make me sick, his voice annoys me and the bloody radio stations play him over and over and over! To answer your question ma'am, psychologically you may appear to be a tough cookie, liking hard rock and punk music, but deep down inside you are female with sensitive feelings. Being hard, rough tough and strong is just your front, which in time, you came to believe that is really, "you". JB's music appealed to your female senses. That's all. Have a nice day. :) | | | | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)

| | Please don't generalize about me. I don't think I'm some hardcore punker chick. I am not about to apologize for being female either. I agree with you, his voice is horrible. It kind of reminds of of Gedde Lee from Rush. (I can't stand that high pitched gurly man voice)..... There is just something in the lyrics. Okay, maybe you are right and he is "getting in touch with my feminine side" lol, meh whatever. Please don't tell me I have a "front". Yes I am female. I never said I wasn't. Sheesh, lol. But thanX for the comment and your bluntness (pun not intended heehee). I think you and I could have a great bunch of conversations about music! | | | | silver_shaddow (633)

| | I don't know James Blunt, but I have to say that I'm really old.... I know no bands you quoted in the first list and I know only Marilyn Manson, Korn and Cannibal corpse of the second list. Time really flies and I'm really old.... I wonder if you know some of the old bands I listened to as Crass (my favourite punk band), Poison Girls, Dirt, Flux of Pink Indians, Conflict in the UK and MDC, DOA (great Canadian punk band!), Minor Threat, Dead Kennedys, Black Flag in the U.S. When I was 20 like you I listened to only punk music, but now that I'm old I like listening to a lot of kinds of music. Mozart first of all :) | | | | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)

| | >>>I love DOA, Dead Kennedys, how about.... the Ramones, Violent Femmes, the Pixies, Sex Pistols, or Rancid? I love all of those bands as well! <<<< Yes, I like punk rock, but when I was young I loved very political bands, so I preferred bands like Crass, not much Clash. And Ramones.... I'm always happy when I listen to a song by Ramones. Yes, I know and I like Haendel. I don't know Apocalyptica, I'll look for news about this band, I'm very curious. In this period I like listening to music by women, as Lunachiks (I love them), Hole, Seven Years bit*ch, Tribe 8, Spitboy, Harum Scarum, L7, Babes in Toyland.... | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)

| | Try some Rasputina. They are farily cool chick band. Or Kittie although they are a little out of date and screamer girls. | | | | FrancyDafne (1676)

| | Thank you dear Punky, I took a look to "YouTube" and I saw some videos about Rasputina and Kittie. Rasputina is very interesting with their classic instruments and Kittie is really powerful.

| | Sometimes, someone's music can be catchy even if it is in an entirely different category of what we listen to. My favorites are Scorpions, Michael Schenker, Yngwie Malmsteen, Queensryche, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Whitesnake, & some others. Believe it or not I found Cascada (her singing & her band of computer music geeks) awfully catchy. It's normal to find other good music outside of what we normally listen to. | | | | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)

| | My first favourite rock band when I was 6 years old was Black Sabbath. I loved Ozzy back in the day too. Queensryche are good. Loved the twisted Sister, Quiet Riot still has me wanting to feel the noise. I grew up on this stuff lol, it will never go out of style for me. So having said that I am going to have to check out Cascada.. Thanks! | | | | KrazyKlingon (3288)

| | She's on myspace at: http://www.myspace.com/cascada It was that Everytime We Touch that caught me. If you replace that artificial instrumentatal section with double-guitar solos like Glenn Tipton & KK Downing did in several Judas Priest cuts, it'd rock a whole lot better. | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)

| | I have a pretty varied taste in music but i too got addicted to James Blunt's album when i first heard it. I think it's a very girly thing, he represents the kind of guy most of us want. Sweet, handsome and romantic. I don't listen to him anymore as i have played him to death but i can understand why you like him. I think his music is quite fresh and it definately appeals to the British population. :] | | | | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)

| | I'm not a Brit though lol! But it's not that I like him I mean he is kinda.. well not really the type of guy I "like" there's just something about his music. | | | | | | | Cheep Bargins Deals Mobile,Tablet,eBook,Games,Apparel,Beauty,Toys Software http://www.beztdeals.com | add comment | | | |

| | Let's be blunt about Blunt! There's something about his music that drives me batty as well and I listen to the hard core stuff too (Raised Fist, Arch Enemy, Cradle of Filth etc). He's a little on the scrappy side, sort of whines when he sings but there is something about him that (as you said) makes my knees weak. So you aren't alone .. :] | | | | | | | PunkyMcPunk (1084)
