I've been there during the war. My aunt was burned alive, because she was rich, my two uncles were killed and my father was beaten in front of my eyes, because he was holding me and didn't let me go. We were forced to leave our homes and go to Albania. On the way there I've seen dad bodies everywhere. People forgot the Kosova war so fast :( but the pain still remains. I will never forget the day when I went back home and realized that we were FINALLY SAFE! THANK YOU JAMES for bringing us peace.
I’m America and a military brat had friends parents who never came back well defending and helping in every way they could 😢 breaks my heart to see the way the world is today.
That song still makes me want to cry. It's like you feel his sorrow in it. I heard about him being a soldier but I didn't know he recorded his experience.
What a true bloke with a big heart ❤ God bless you james being ex vet my self I know your pain and sorrow you had to deal with but it make people realise that what you did out there there is no fun in war nor anything to do with it. we all thank you for your dedication and service to our country I salute you sir.
Kosovo LOVES YOU Jemes. We are proud of British soldiers who contributed on KFOR. You gave a wonderful contribution to dominate the best against the evil in this part of Europe. God bless UK, James and Republic of Kosovo.
He lowkey stopped WWIII. He was ordered to seize an airfield, but the Russians had already taken it. So he was ordered to take it off the Russians, and he refused which is the worst thing you can do. You never disobey orders. But if he had it could have taken the war from a civil one to a world one. Of all fucking things, we have James Blunt to thank for literally saving the world.
Massive respect , great individual and artist . Long live Albania and Kosovo ( and btw There are more than 30% christians in Albania but we respect the religion of each other)
James we always gonna love you brother, Thanks a lot we never forget what you do for us, you are always welcome to Kosovo all doors are open for you Thanks James you are a good soldier, good man and a good singer 👐👐🎶🎧🙋♂️
Correction at 4:12. The Kosovo Albanians were trying to burn that church building because it belongs to the Serbian church. NOT because it it christian. The Serbian orthodox church acts as part of the serbian government working against albanians and all other non serb ethnicities in ex Yugoslavia. Albanians get along very well with christian Croats or Cristian Italians, and have been doing so for centuries. The wars in Ex Yugoslavia were NOT about religion. They were wars about ETHNICITIES. I`m Albanian and I am christian.
@@dude5910 there is no Catholic church i Kosovo moron, and it Will newer be becouse your and his NATO TERORITS bring the islam and terorism to our SERBIAN ORTODOX CRADLE. Learn more about us and then judge.
Thank you James! Thank you Great Britain! We never will forget what YOU did for us Albanians. Best wishes to every person who fights for peace! - Kosova was, is and always will be Albania!
Hahahaha funny guy. First look at your marks on the flag. As I can remember, Kosovo was never part of Albania, at least geography doesn't say that.. and since when is peace called when you try to take territory that is not on your homeland.. U zdravlje!
Thanks for everything,its also you see how happy were people and especially children were when you arrived in Kosovo,and for us it was like small light of hope which then became a dream realized,and for this I hope to God send his all the best.
All myrespect to James BLUNT. I have just made the same as him. I've just come back from KOSOVO. I'm a former french soldier who sered in KFOR in 2000. I was based in Mitrovica. I saw with my own eyes how KOSOVO and also Mitrovica have changed.
Amazing..never knew this! Power to James and to the men who reached in and fought for the underdog...even if they were a diff religion. What mattered most was..the difference between right and wrong..! =)
I don't think it's fair to be siding with either Albania or Serbia. They both suffered a lot, and both fought for the same reasons. No one really started anything, there hasn't been peace in Kosovo for ages because of ethnic tensions. Kosovo is NOT Serbia. Kosovo is NOT Albania. Kosovo is Kosovo = PEACE!
Can we please keep the old "Kosovo is Serbia" And "talking back" argument away from this video please? If a Serb tries to intimidate you just ignore them. Its the proper way to deal with them. Lets celebrate this video as gift to us and not bother what a Serb troll says what so ever. By the way we really do love you James, you are always welcome here ^_^
Maravilhosa música 💕 maravilhoso "James Blunt!!!eu o admiro e agradeço a "deus ,por conhecher sua histórias de amor ,e bravura!!! Gratidão sempre 🙏✌️❤️👏
If JAMS BLUNT could ever admit that he had a crush for a girl in my country. He made the song " you are beautiful". Best looking women in the world are in Balkans.
Got to love James Blunt for his humanitarian huge heart,for his spirit and of course for his talent ...love you man ,hope to see you one day and give you big bear Albanian hug !
Did you notice how the mosques are not destroyed, while the church is burned? And as you can see, Alabanian people are walking around, and I don't see Serbs. So who was killing who? Think about it.
Theres nothing to think about! Look at the factual evidence reported in kosovo. 20,000 women raped and 18,000 people killed with 2,000 still missing! And by the way there were many mosques that were not only burnt but used a Serbian bases! And yes, you will see albanian people walking around as the population is 95% Albanian and has always been! Get you facts right and learn!
I learnt everithing, but it is a bit different! If Serbs raped and killed all of these people where are they? Who killed, raped them? It's a but unlogical what you are talking. And how I didn't see them when I was to Kosovo? All that I saw was burnt churches, and and sybols of christianity bunrt and broken.
Well, I still think that you are misinformed. Because, I live in Bosnia (where you say that Serbs killed all of that people) and I can't even say that I am Serb. And I think we all know that these number are pumped in media. But, I don't want to take this discuasion any further. Good luck to you!
There were bad men and good men on both sides. We all have these in each and every society. Judging another (Albanian, Serb, Croat, etc.) based off of what a few evil men did will not help get over the pain that all sides felt. Screw national boundaries, screw religious affiliations, in order for all to heal, you have to think of everyone as a human being and that's it. Let our younger generation grow up respecting one another instead of teaching them to hate each other. Which is all I see.
I've been there during the war. My aunt was burned alive, because she was rich, my two uncles were killed and my father was beaten in front of my eyes, because he was holding me and didn't let me go. We were forced to leave our homes and go to Albania. On the way there I've seen dad bodies everywhere. People forgot the Kosova war so fast :( but the pain still remains.

I’m America and a military brat had friends parents who never came back well defending and helping in every way they could 😢 breaks my heart to see the way the world is today.

@@Capocomico It was the invading serbs, not the people.
As a veteran myself, I have such respect for dues payers and giving back ❤
Greetings from Kosovo and just to let you know you have the respect and all our love James .
With love Kosovo Albanians
A true talent, and a most humble man, if only everyone could smile and love like James you could visit and walk anywhere without fear....
That song still makes me want to cry. It's like you feel his sorrow in it. I heard about him being a soldier but I didn't know he recorded his experience.

Kosovo LOVES you James!

I was in Kosovo in 1999
Increasingly frustrating how true this fact is...
Does anybody know what backing track/song is used for the opening montage in the first minute of the video?
lol I got an advertisement for this channel when I was watching this video.
Thank You
A former comrade of my son was member of one of the german kfor troops,he saw also üictures like that
The best singer in uk ever
He was my mates commanding officer in Kosovo
Than you James

James you looked so much like young Sheldon in the first shot.
Bless James Blunt and the United Kingdom as well as the United States of America
So sweet of you to say that
Thank you James , thank you :'(
Don't hate the soldiers who fight in wars hate the politician's who sent them there in the first place.
Yeah I know, american soldiers actually thought they were doing the good thing while bombing Serbia. Its crazy what propaganda can do.
THANK YOU JAMES FOR ALL WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH
All myrespect to James BLUNT.

Hope everything will be fine for you and your people.
Respect 4 James Blunt!!!
My god this is so wrong
What a living legend!!!
What area of Britain is James Blunt's accent from?
Ruling classes accent (posh)
I don't think it's fair to be siding with either Albania or Serbia. They both suffered a lot, and both fought for the same reasons. No one really started anything, there hasn't been peace in Kosovo for ages because of ethnic tensions. Kosovo is NOT Serbia. Kosovo is NOT Albania. Kosovo is Kosovo = PEACE!
If Kosovo becomes independent theres really nothing stoping them from uniting with Albania so saying that ,,Kosovo is Kosovo" is just as bad
Djovak Noković no
He hasn't aged even a bit.
Bravo James, 17.02.2008! yeeaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!! :)
It would probably make more sense to you if you read the title; and just a little more sense than that if you actually read the description.
Can we please keep the old "Kosovo is Serbia" And "talking back" argument away from this video please? If a Serb tries to intimidate you just ignore them. Its the proper way to deal with them.

Kosovo je Srbija bilo uvek i ostace..SRBIJA.

Amazing

Lern your facts right bro before you talk serbs attacked us and we fought back
Who killed people in bosnia and kosovo ?
Kosovo is Albania and Albania is Kosovo...we are same
and thanks james blunt :) albanian's love you
Kosovo is SERBIA MORON!
Still
Are you proctekting kosovo or serbia i dont get it
It was peace keeping, it was trying to protect everyone.
@@gsw8734 was it peace keeping when CIA funded KLA, and NATO supplied them long before the war? where is your soul?
There were bad men and good men on both sides. We all have these in each and every society. Judging another (Albanian, Serb, Croat, etc.) based off of what a few evil men did will not help get over the pain that all sides felt. Screw national boundaries, screw religious affiliations, in order for all to heal, you have to think of everyone as a human being and that's it. Let our younger generation grow up respecting one another instead of teaching them to hate each other. Which is all I see.
Well, politics... That's how it is. I guess our dirty human nature will always prevail.
James Blunt=one of the greatest soldiers in history.
HELLL YEAAH.. JAMES BLUNT.
