Well, he may be pretty much loathed by the readers of NME (see the NME Award nominations), but you can't argue with sales. Much. Anyway, it would seem our American cousins are as collectively as hot for Mr B as we (the British public, that is) are, given that his debut 'Back To Bedlam' has made it to number nine in the US album chart. It was released in the States sixteen weeks ago, so it's taken a while, but actually, it followed a similar kind of pattern of ascent here. All goes to show, really, that Blunt has a weird, evil and insidious ability to seep slowly into hearts and minds. Bless him.
