In 2012, he brought back Tom Rothrock to track his fourth album, Moon Landing. Featuring the country-folk-influenced U.K. number one "Bonfire Heart," the record saw release in October 2013. Increasingly self-depreciating in public statements, Blunt let roughly three-and-a-half years pass before putting out another album.
Keen to capitalise on the success of his UK No.4 hit Bonfire Heart, the piano-based lilt of Heart To Heart was a snappy pop tune produced by Robopop, the LA-based producer responsible for Lana Del Rey’s Video Games. Stalling at No.42 in the UK, Heart To Heart is nevertheless a much-overlooked addition to James Blunt’s songwriting catalogue.
No, I’m not. ‘You’re Beautiful’ is not this soft romantic fucking song. It’s about a guy who’s high as a fucking kite on drugs in the subway, stalking someone else’s girlfriend when
Your mouth is a revolver firing bullets in the sky. Your love is like a soldier, loyal till you die. And I’ve been looking at the stars for a long, long time. I’ve been putting out fires all my life. Everybody wants a flame, but they don’t want to get burnt. And today is our turn. Days like these lead to nights like this leads to love
