Come at James Blunt and you best not miss.
His music isn’t universally popular, but James Blunt has made a more than decent career out of what some would describe as ‘high-pitched wailing’ and he makes no apologies for it either.
Blunt regularly attracts criticism for his music on Twitter, but if you’re going to insult him, you better have a decent argument ready because he regularly puts trolls in their place with cutting rebukes.
His latest example arrived when writer/actor/producer Noah Kinsey delivered a critique of Blunt’s most famous song, to which Blunt responded with a quite brilliant comeback.
On my bucket list, I want to sit James Blunt down and explain – line by line – why his song "You're Beautiful" fucking sucks.

And I’d like to sit you down and explain – dollar by dollar – why I don’t care. https://t.co/gfz4RupcIJ

Get used to James’ pocket Noah, you’re going to be there a while.
