是英国今年新出现的一位新人，被很多人认为是当今英国乐坛最有潜力的创作型男歌手之一，今年刚刚21岁。出生于英国中部城市Rugby的James Morrison虽然只有21岁，但他的声音听上去却显得十分老成，平滑中带有一丝嘶哑，天生一副唱Soul的嗓子。

You Give Me Something

You only stay with me in the morning
You only hold me when I sleep
I was meant to tread¹ the water
Now Ive gotten in too deep
For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away

Coz you give me something that makes me scared alright
this could be nothing but im willing² to give it a try
Please give me something coz some day I might know my heart

You only waited up for hours
Just to spend a little time alone with me
Like I said, ive never bought you flowers
I cant³ work out what they need
I never thought I'd love someone
that was someones else's dream...

Coz you give me something that makes me scared alright
this could be nothing but im willing to give it a try
Please give me something coz some day I might call you from my heart
But it might be a second too late
The words that I could never say
Are gonna come out anyway


Coz you give me something that makes me scared alright
this could be nothing but im willing to give it a try
Please give me something...

Coz you give me something that makes me scared alright
this could be nothing but im willing to give it a try
Please give me something coz some day I might know my heart
