Very true. While I'm not a fan of his music, I think he is a fantastic person. He has that classic British trait of taking the piss out of ourselves, just as much as we do with each other. Sarcasm is rife here and I absolutely love that it's an integral part of our society.

I love James Blunt. However, to everyone commenting on the interviewer, grow up. He's being insanely polite, and fairly confident all things considering. The reason he's "boring" is because his role is to ask questions and wait on answers, he's not the one everyone is there to see, and he isn't trying to make that the case.

I've always like his music, but now the guy. He is very smart. And extremely quick witted. All while being his true self. The passion in his songs are evident in his responses about war and the life of a soldier. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this interview and his interactions with the audience. Well done sir.

My eldest brother served with James Blunt in the Blues and Royals Bosnia and Kosovo's and my brother was a senior NCO SGT and he said even though James Blunt was a senior officer he was treated and wanted to be treated as equal regardless of ranks or position he was made fun of but he was and is a respected humble and ordinary man who served his country and then bravely decided to write and sing his songs one of which actually depicts some of his emotions and experience in the military it's called "Carry You Home"

What an interesting, self-deprecating and erudite man. I bemoan the fact that television interviews of interesting people are nothing like they were in the past with interviewers such as Michael Parkinson. We miss so much these days from people who can have worthwhile things to say. James' comments about dark humour helping you through difficult times are true. The same awful humour existed when I was a Police Officer. I enjoy the fact that his humour is often based upon irony and quite often not picked up by his audience. Some good questions too from the audience. I will be looking at more of these Q&A sessions with the Oxford Union.
