About
“You’re Beautiful” is a song written by James Blunt, Sacha Skarbek, and Amanda Ghost for Blunt’s debut album, Back to Bedlam. This song talks about Blunt’s ex-girlfriend, whom he saw on the London Underground with her new partner. Blunt told Oprah: It’s about seeing my ex-girlfriend on the subway in London with her new man, who I didn’t know existed. She and I caught eyes and lived a lifetime in that moment, but didn’t do anything about it. Rolling Stone put the song at #7 of its list of the 10 most annoying songs of all time.
