He was born in Tidworth, Wiltshire, United Kingdom. His style is a mix of pop, rock and folk. Along with vocals, Blunt plays a wide variety of instruments including the piano, guitar, organ, marimba, and mellotron.
Blunt was educated at Elstree School, Woolhampton, then Harrow School (where he received his nickname 'Blunty'), and finally the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst. Before the release of his album, Blunt was a commissioned officer in the British Army, rose to the rank of Captain and served as a NATO peacekeeper in Kosovo.

James Blunt Lyrics
Breathe Take this, bloody war along the way I'm lost for words…
Smoke Signals One by one they Pass me by And I've used up My supplies Out…
Trail of Broken Hearts Someone be my witness that she walked away. Said I said…
When I Find Love Again Hey oh Where can I go, when all the roads I…
Working It Out I've been waiting for the sky to fall For so long.…
