Product Description: In 2005, James Blunt was everybody's favorite overnight success story. In 2007, he's the guy who's making rock meaningful again. All the Lost Souls, the sophomore effort from the Brit responsible for restoring the seriousness of "beautiful" as a compliment, brims with big build-ups, epic-sounding ballads, and lyrics to lose yourself in. The vibe, laid out neatly on first single and opening track "1973", is clear-eyed and heavy-hearted; in anybody over 35, it'll produce nostalgia tempered by hopefulness. Here's a set that suggests rock has got its head screwed on straight again, that the path to real feelings need not necessarily be led by Norah Jones. In anybody younger, it'll cause the unsinkable suspicion that a lot of modern balladeers should be digging deeper. But in both cases it will satisfy. Compared with David Gray and Damien Rice last time out, this time Blunt seems to owe a debt to Barry Gibb--his voice quavers as sweetly and with the same delicate reach. Stand-outs on a brief but dud-less set include "I Really Want You," in which the sound of Blunt's breaking heart is set sparely and elegantly to something approximating the chirp of a cricket, the poignant and desperate "Give Me Some Love", and the VH-1 ready "Same Mistakes."--Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews
Great CD
First time listener of James Blunt and I loved this CD (but I love Britpop). Very catchy tunes, fun and good from one track to the next. I am tempted but buy his previous release.
Best Tracks are: "1973", "Same Mistake", "Carry You Home" and "Annie".
I'm very happy with this purchase and look forward to his next offering.

Yes this and the debut are depressing!
This guy is just awful! His voice is way too nasal. The music is too simple, and the style so sweet it makes me sick. Sorry guys! There are so many good artists out there that does not get playtime in the radio, and they deserves it more than mr./mrs. Blunt here. For instance You should try Peter Mayer (Green Eyed Radio or Musicbox), if You like soft music. He has a better voice, and he is a better musician IMO.

Depressing
Although I loved James Blunt's first CD, this one lacks substance and is, I think, sort of a downer. I find myself turning it off after only listening to the first half. I keep trying to give it another chance, but it isn't his best. (I DID listen to the whole CD a couple of times by the way.)
