James blunt

I sing like a girl.

'Top Gear' changed people's perceptions of me. I've had much more positive responses from my TV appearances than written articles. And I have the weirdest voice.

I am not into fashion. I just like being able to buy my mates dinner.

My life is brillant, My love is pure.

I guess if you're stupid enough to join the army without thinking about getting shot at, then you really are a fool.

I have been told by people that I should not be seen clubbing with good-looking women, but I can't see why not. Why be a pop star otherwise?

I think sensitive is the wrong description of me. I'm British, actually, so quite bad at expressing myself in conversation, as any ex-girlfriend will tell you. I'm probably emotionally stunted.

I like 'Goodbye My Lover' because it's a really personal song and I recorded it in my landlady's bathroom in Los Angeles. She had a piano in there and for me listening back to it, it actually sounds...

I never really set out to do anything in the charts with music. It came as a total surprise that I did, and it's fun.

The showbiz world has to be manipulated to make it more interesting because most people's lives are boring.
