I'm totally in love with James Morrison right now (and my friends are stuck listening to him with me!)

His debut album, Undiscovered, went straight to number one in the UK and has sold more than 1 million copies worldwide (as of 24 December 2006).

and he's debuting in the US in March. (I discovered him when I was in Taiwan.)

His voice is amazing and so are his music and lyrics smile.gif

I actually just bought Paolo Nutini's cd yesterday! haha. Yeah, I discovered him when I was in Asia and brought his CD back to the US with me haha. He does shows in all different countries in Europe~ haha.

I think he said he's coming on tour in the US after his tour in Europe ends.... so in April??
kkkkk
paolo nutini is great because his songs are different, whereas james is be more radio-friendly.
i bought paolo's cd right after i heard 'still crazy'. and his cd didnt disappoint. these streets is especially great for driving (actually, i dont drive.)

anyway james is good, too.


sushixohh
OMFGGGGG! I love his super duper mega max hanep! w00t.gif I love You give me something. It totally hits me. tears.gif

"cuz you give me something that makes me feel so right. this could be nothing and i really wanna give it a try. "
hippiehop
I'd say Paolo Nutini's cd has more uhh... sexual content in it LOL. It is pretty good. but James def pwns. ph34r.gif

It's really hard for me to pick a favorite.... but I'd say I'm leaning towards "Better Man" and "This Boy"
hippiehop
James just announced his US tour on his website!!

hmm I've never heard it before.... but then again, im in the US and ive only heard his song on the radio once here.

You're kidding me... i'm been looking for this thread... i thought there wasn't one yet... The guy is the best... he such a great voice and the lyrics of his songs are so good... i have his whole album and i can't stop listening to it... i'm hella stuck on "The Pieces Don't Fit Anymore" and i have the song on my myspace with the music video... i can't seem to get enough of this dude... that's how good he is...

It's great that there's a thread here... such a good artist... rarely do i find a artist i really like...

I've heard that Paolo Nutini was somewhat like James Morrison, so i also have his whole album... but i'm not catching/digging him yet... maybe i should listen to it more... maybe later... right now all i want to listen to is James Morrison...
mayo
i LOVed his single when it was free on itunes. gosh, i tried looking for him at the store, but then i forgot his name.... ARG.....

when i first heard the first 3 soconds of him singing "you give me something", i thought "erm.... another james blunt?" but then i was wrong. i LOVe that song.
material_girl
DEFINITELY A VERY GOOD SINGER! i was just listening to him actually ... biggrin.gif
roentgen

w00t! i didn't know there was a james morrison thread! smile.gif

love his "Last Goodbye", "Pieces don't fit anymore" and "You give me something".

there's something very real and relate-able about his music.
i like how he doesn't try to be overly poetic, but he's still eloquent at the same time.
badboy yardy
man, i love that "You Give Me Something" song. His video to that is so weird though, it's so random, but nice eye-candy if you're a guy. lol
&gravity.
This guy is awesome. All the songs on his album are great. Very talented guy that I'm completely obsessed over at the moment.
me094
^^ Obsessed... you're telling me... i am too... if i wasn't also currently obsessed with another group right now... i would be James Morrison this and James Morrison that... but... he deserves it... the boy is great.
MaiMai
i loooooooooooooooooove love love him
his ENTIRE album is excellent

Oooh another fave song: Call the Police is AWESOME.

His voice is love.

I've heard of this guy. What kind of music genre does he fit under?
And he's comparable to Paulo Nutini? Same style/sound/voice?

He is comparable more to John Mayer, I think, at least his style is.
It's kind of that Acoustic pop sound.
His voice is very low, raspy, and soulful...
Paolo Nutini's voice is higher and his lyrics aren't as good (imo)

I see.
Yeah, I wasn't really into Nutini so I had my doubts about Morrison.

But after listening to his CD, I wouldn't necessarily say he and Nutini have the same sound.

IMO, Nutini is closer to Gavin DeGraw (his voice)... and I can't really place Morrison. He's not really a John Mayer to me because Mayer has a more... "refined," more pop sound.

Morrison's husky voice is wonderful. The Pieces Don't Fit Anymore is lovely. I haven't heard anything like that in awhile.
xxctxx
"This Boy", "Wonderful world", "How Come" and "The Letter" are my favourites off his album!
He is awesome! smile.gif...!

I love that song from TWS, so I've been looking around for James Morrison's cover of "All I Want".

If anyone knows where to look, PM me.

Thanks!

I'd like to know where to find it too smile.gif

I had tickets to his upcoming show here in Seattle, and I just heard yesterday that the concert was canceled.

You have NO IDEA how bummed I was. I really wanted to see him live and I would have just died if I got to see him perform The Pieces Don't Fit Anymore.

I am absolutely in loveeeeeeeee with this man. His entire album is just so good. Few artists manage to do that, in my experience. Undiscovered is an amazing album. It is great from beginning to end. I definitely recommend it. He has such a soulful voice. =)
Blu_Velvet_Sea
his voice is so nice to listen to, I am in love with it lol
xstasy
He's SUCH a talented singer!
His songs are SO freaking awesome too!! (:
xosandy
Like everyone said, James Morrison is amazing! My favorites on his album are "This Boy," "Undiscovered," and "Wonderful World." I seriously cannot stop listening to him!
