James Morrison chats to I Like Music
JAMES MORRISON
ILM: Your gorgeous single, You Give Me Something, is out now, and I just adore it. It gives me tingles in my spine and a lump in my throat and just this exhilarating feeling, So, anyway, can you give us your own personal description of the track, its whole vibe and where/how you came to write it?
JAMES: Basically it's kind of inspired by my girlfriend, at the time, I was a young guy and it was kind of an honest love song. I started writing a proper love song, but I think there's too many of them around that are not exactly how people feel, not the truth of what they feel, so I wanted to write a horribly honest song about how I felt. I wanted the guy in the song (me) to give as little away as possible, kind of like the leanest love song that you could write without totally doing the girls heads in. So you're not giving away anything but the tiniest little bit, just to keep her there, because you're still a bit, 'is it gonna work or is it not?' and that's what it's about that really.

Jun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!

Ellen, Los Campesinos: ilikemusic because... It’s the best form of escapism that you can have wherever you are. You could be completely miserable or waiting for a bus and put on any song that inspires you and you can escape into a little world, well that’s what I tend to do anyway.
