Hi John, I'm not less annoying I'm afraid... some more questions - ( woohoo ) Which Blunt song do you enjoy the most to play live at the gigs?? And if you were to cover one of James' songs what would it be?? Were there other jobs you have done before you became a full-time musician?? I've been really busy writing over the summer in France and at home and have an album of new songs. I have been writing in a new way which I am totally in love with. Completely naked (the songs not me) and without adding any instruments other than what the song was written on. It has made me focus on lyrics and natural dynamics rather than adding loads of instruments to sign post changes. Do you still write your songs that way?? THANK YOU!! J. xx Shine On is my fav I love James' new songs. I would cover them in a heart beat When I left school I worked in a record shop, then was a barman, and then a chauffeur yes I still write that way

Hey Where did you get Kid Rock's go kart from and how did you manage to crash it?? What's the funniest thing that happened to you on tour? How much time do you have to work on your own songs between the shows? And where do you prefer to write down your lyrical ideas, alone or in company? Sorry I'm curious today... hope your hand is feeling better x we were at his house Too many to mention Lots of time on the tour bus and in hotels. I Always work on my own

Hey, John, what a nice surprise... I didn't expect you to answer our questions while being still so busy 'on the road'. It's all the more appreciated that you actually did!!! Danke, Dankeschön, Vielen Dank!!! Although your beautiful lyrics do already tell a lot about you, it's extra special to read your replies and to get to know a bit more about you and what makes you tick. I truly envy you for your ability to keep your answers short and at the same time say so much. Oh, and I'm really sorry for running slightly out of control earlier in this thread. Please forgive me... Hope that life is treating you kind! Thanxxxx again for everything!! Lots of love Jacqueline xxxxxx

Would you say that 'sad' things are in general more inspiring than 'happy' things? Do you remember the first song you have ever written? What was it about? Who is the biggest diva on the bus? x

Are you boys eating all your vegetables? Taking your vitamins? Touring must be difficult on your bodies. How do you keep from getting sick?

if you were to end up on a deserted island and had the option to take 3 things with you, which 3 things/items would you take with you?
And which 3 items would never reach that island?

Do you guys ever play tricks on each other?
I'm sure since you boys spend so much time together you've become close but do you console each other with problems and such?

What is your favourite song you have ever written if you have one and it's not in your vault? What are you doing after the show on the 18th October? I think some of us would like to know... (Dont say hide!) Do you ever have something like a blockade or can you always write? Do you avoid our 'not-so-serious' questions on purpose? ;D And thank you again John, it means so much to us that you are always answering our questions!!! xxx

Hi John
As for other artists, what was your best gig experience ever??
What would your best mate say about you?? And what does your mirror image tell you in the morning??
Any chance you put "Ongoing" on your next album?? Maybe as a seperate CD or DVD accompanied by your photography??
Thanks for taking the time J. xx
