Dude, I'm completely broke...But you can still put me down for twenty bucks.

Goddamned creepy-ass, fish-belly pale, goaty-voiced, thousand-yard stare and molester-moustache-owning, stalker-song-croaking little retard.

I'd give up some things to never hear his arse again.

I got twelve bucks. Will that do for a start?

I'll set up a PayPal fund and all the Farkers can contribute for one month, then I'll send ito to him and say STFU Jimmy Boy along with it.

My first thought was he is dangling a carrot in front of the all-powerful Internet.

I wonder how long it will be before a website pops up seeking $1 donations from a million people to get James Blunt to stop making music.

This will be like the Joe8122 thread... I'm in for five bucks!

Will he take a check? Where do I send it?

FTFA: 'If someone puts some chocolate cake in front of you and you don't like it, but there's some cheesecake to the right, would you start screaming at the chef?' he says.

'Just eat the cheesecake without calling the chef the Antichrist.'


He forgot the part about the chocolate cake being crammed down one's throat everywhere they go.

Great, get someone to pay me twice as much to find out who you are.

Someone needs to educate James Blunt on how the music industry works...people don't pay you to go away - they stop buying your music and you go away because of LACK of income.

It's really a win-win for the record-buying public: you go away and we don't have to spend anything.

 
davynelson 2008-09-26 07:52:37 PM  
somebody DID pay him enough:
all the people who bought his first album of drivel.

so stop already, dude.

James Blunt is the young man's Chris DeBurgh.

code_monkey: James Blunt is the young man's Chris DeBurgh.

You are wrong. Chris DeBurgh is the visage of true evil, whereas James Blunt is just a farking tool.

Actually he's a pretty sound fella who's got a decent of a sense of humor about his songs. You can call him a tool all you like but it doesn't make him one and he's still richer than you. I too would pump out girly, annoying crap in a stupid voice if it paid me that kind of cash.

I would like to contribute to the STFU James Blunt cause.

 
boogerwolf 2008-09-26 11:51:27 PM  
Get the hat passed around and I'll drop a sheikel or two in it.

I worked in a shop were a "dude" across the way listened to the local soccer mom, white-bread station. They played that "Beautiful" song and that had-a-bad-day song seemingly ever half hour. Getting stabby was against company policy.

/we heckled his ass until he turned it down.

DEAR GOD IN HEAVEN

HE PLANNED THIS FROM THE BEGINNING

James Blunt = supervillian?

Damn, i'm strapped right now, but anything for the right cause. Here's a fiver.

I'll eat ramen this month.

Put me down for 10 bucks.

Big surprise, he's only in it for the money.

No, you didn't read that right. He's only out of it for the money.

/found another 83 cents in the seat cushions!

his music might suck but dude isn't a pussy.."As the British Army sponsored his university education, Blunt was obliged to serve a minimum of four years in the armed forces. Blunt trained at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.[2][5] He was commissioned as a subaltern (Second Lieutenant) in the Life Guards, a unit of the Household Cavalry, where he rose to the rank of Captain.[5][6]
In 1999, he served as an armoured reconnaissance officer in the NATO deployment in Kosovo. Initially assigned to reconnaissance of the Macedonia-Yugoslavia border, Blunt and his unit worked ahead of the front lines directing forces and targeting Serb positions for the NATO bombing campaign. He led the first squadron of troops to enter Priština, and was the first British officer to enter the Kosovo capital. His unit was given the assignment of securing the Priština airport in advance of the 30,000-strong peacekeeping force; the Russian army had moved in and taken control of the airport before his unit's arrival. As the first officer on the scene, Blunt shared a part in the difficult task of addressing the potentially violent international incident.[8]
