There are two ways to understand this revolutionary concept. The Commensurate Sales to Popularity Concept (CSPC) Of course, if you are a regular visitor feel free to skip the video and get into the numbers directly. I fully recommend watching it before getting into the sales figures. If you are not yet familiar with the CSPC method, below is a nice and short video of explanations. In fact, it will also determine their true popularity. This concept will not only bring you sales information for all Blunt‘ s albums, physical and download singles, as well as audio and video streaming. How popular / forgotten is he really right now then?Īs usual, I’ll be using the Commensurate Sales to Popularity Concept in order to relevantly gauge his results. At best you’ll be following his Twitter account, one of the most hilarious out of all thanks to the singer’s cleverness and humour. If you are from Germany, you will struggle selecting only 5 of his biggest songs considering how many hits he has got. If you live in the US, you’ll likely say Blunt is an obvious example of a one-hit wonder. Last year, he was the opening act of Ed Sheeran‘s monster Divide Tour in North America while smashing continental Europe with Robin Schulz‘ collaboration OK. If he became an easy target of mockery, he has still been able to pursue his career up to today. It has now been nearly 15 years since the LP Back To Bedlam was first released, but allergic reactions are still palpable with many as soon as Blunt‘s name is mentioned. In 2005/2006, this explosive mix made him both the biggest seller in the world and the most bashed singer of that time.

Excessive radio play, easy love-themed songs and weird nasal voice in a side, soulful singing, relentless melodies and cleverly written lyrics in the other. James Blunt had everything for you to love him or hate him.
