You’ve heard the song. But have you heard the story of James Blunt's pivotal role in Kosovo, where his quick thinking and leadership may have prevented World War 3? As a reconnaissance officer leading an army of 30,000 NATO troops against 300 Russian soldiers, Blunt faced a critical moment that could have changed history.

In this conversation with Guy Raz, he reflects on that day… plus, how he wound up living with (and writing a song for) Carrie Fisher; the the real-life story that inspired his hit song “You’re Beautiful,” and how he laughs off being labeled “uncool” by music critics.

📖 About James Blunt:

📖 When James Blunt released "You're Beautiful" in 2004, it quickly became the most popular song in the world. His album, Back to Bedlam, became the best selling album of the 2000s in the UK. But James was already in his 30s when that song broke, and before that he lived a completely different life... In this episode, you'll hear about James' time in the British army leading NATO troops in Kosovo, his stint as one of Queen Elizabeth's ceremonial bodyguards, and how he randomly became roommates with Carrie Fisher while recording his first album.
