　　视频：James Blunt问候中国歌迷

　　有着“上尉诗人”美誉的詹姆斯·布朗特(James Blunt(听歌))开始筹备他的第二张专辑。不同于其第一张专辑《Back to Bedlam》的单打独斗，他这次是和其巡回表演伙伴们一起录制，希望风格比上一张更加强硬。

　　经过了两年睡眠不足的巡回表演生活，詹姆斯终于在洛杉矶好好地休息了一阵子。“经过两年键盘手睡在我下层、吉他手睡在我对面的巡回巴士生活，现在我可以躺在床上而且旁边没有人打呼，那种感觉真怪。”詹姆斯说。不过即使过去两年都是在没怎么好眠的情况下度过，詹姆斯还是利用琐碎的时间创作新歌，巡回表演结束后累积起来，这些新歌的量已经足够让詹姆斯筹备新专辑了。

　　詹姆斯暗示说他的新专辑将和他的首张专辑有着截然不同的曲风，其中含有浓浓的70年代复古气息。这次他和他的巡回表演伙伴们一起录制新专辑，由于这些伙伴的加入，使得詹姆斯新专辑的风格比起第一张来要更强硬一些。詹姆斯预计要在春末夏初完成新专辑的录制工作，正式问世预计是在今年秋天的时候。

　　1973

　　Simona

　　You're getting older

　　The journey's been

　　Etched on your skin

　　Simona

　　I guess i know this

　　We seemed so strong

　　We've been there and gone

　　I will call you up everyday saturday night

　　And we both stayed out 'til the morning light

　　And we sang, "here we go again"

　　And though time goes by

　　I will always be

　　In a club with you

　　It was nineteen seventy three

　　Singing "here we go again"

　　Simona

　　Wish i was sober

　　So i could see clearly now

　　The rain has gone

　　Simona

　　I guess it's over

　　My memory plays our tune

　　The same old song

　　I will call you up everyday saturday night

　　And we both stayed out 'til the morning light

　　And we sang, "here we go again"

　　And though time goes by

　　I will always be

　　In a club with you

　　It was nineteen seventy three

　　Singing "here we go again"

　　I will call you up everyday saturday night

　　And we both stayed out 'til the morning light

　　And we sang, "here we go again"

　　And though time goes by

　　I will always be

　　In a club with you

　　It was nineteen seventy three

　　Singing "here we go again"

　　I will call you up everyday saturday night

　　And we both stayed out 'til the morning light

　　And we sang, "here we go again"

　　And though time goes by

　　I will always be

　　In a club with you

　　It was nineteen seventy three

　　Singing "here we go again"

　　And though time goes by

　　I will always be

　　In a club with you

　　It was nineteen seventy three
