James Blunt in Manila (May 19, 2008)

i just came home from the concert of James Blunt at the Araneta Coliseum. it was the sixth concert i watched this year. i love it! even though only a few people watched, it was still good.

for someone who sings sad songs, James was full of energy. in the middle of the concert, he suddenly jumped from the stage, ran around the Patron area, shook hands and hugged some people. lucky them! during his last song (1973), he stood at the top of his piano and posed like he was surfing. really funny.

of course, the best parts of the concert were the songs he sang. i can't believe that i finally heard my favorite song, You're Beautiful live. wow. he also sang High, Goodbye My Lover, Carry Me Home, and One of the Brightest Stars. too bad he didn't sing Tears and Rain. but i guess it's okay. i might find myself crying in the middle of Araneta if he sang that. :)

well, it seems like watching concerts is now an official hobby of mine. :D
