James Blunt

Hace mucho tiempo, mi amigo Félix, me recomendó escuchar a James Blunt, porque según su opinión, sus canciones ayudan de forma efectiva a educar el oído, para aprender inglés.  De hecho, aún recuerdo cuando en una visita que le  hice a Liverpool, tenía muy a mano, música de este cantautor británico y me consta que lo escuchaba con bastante frecuencia. 

Haciendo extensible su consejo a los lectores del blog, os dejo una buena canción, "Give me some love" que además, creo se entiende bastante bien.  Espero que os guste.

James Blunt,  es un cantante inglés, nacido en 1974, que alcanzó una gran notoriedad en 2005 con la canción Your Beautiful (aunque particularmente quedé un poco saturado de esa canción....)  Como curiosidad indicar que antes de dedicarse al mundo del espectáculo, sirvió en el Ejército Británico. Actualmente reside en la isla de Ibiza (no sabe nada...) 

Give me some love

Me and my guitar play my way. It makes them frown.

But little pieces by the highway bring me down.

Mine is not a heart of stone, I am only skin and bone,

And those little pieces are little pieces of my own.

Why don't you give me some love?

I've taken ship-load of drugs.

I'm so tired of never fixing the pain.

Valium said to me,

I'll take you seriously,

And we'll come back as someone else,

Who's better than yourself.

Many faces at the doorway all hang round.

Watch me fighting in the hallway but make no sound.

So I'm standing all alone, and I'm only skin and bone.

So many faces but they all look out for their own.

Why don't you give me some love?

I've taken ship-load of drugs.

I'm so tired of never fixing the pain.

Valium said to me,

I'll take you seriously,

And we'll come back as someone else,

Who's better than yourself.

Why don't you give me some love?

I've taken ship-load of drugs.

I'm so tired of never fixing the pain.

Valium said to me,

I'll take you seriously,

And we'll come back as someone else,

Who's better than yourself today.

And someday soon they'll drop the bomb and let it all out. Someday.

I know that someday soon we'll all be gone so let it all out.

Let it all out today.

And give me some love,

Yeah, give me some love,

Come on, give me some love today.
