Kosovo ballads tops charts

A BRITISH army Captain's lament for the massacred Kosovans he witnessed during a Nato peacekeeping stint has become the year's super hit. James Blunt, 28, a Cavalry Guardsman has shot into the Top 10 with a debut album Back To Bedlam album of ballads, which has sold 110,000 copies. The ballad which challenges the traditional image of a military man, went to No.4 and now his single You're Beautiful is set to become his first Top 20 hit.

Blunt said it would be a good opportunity to play his songs in Kosovo. "It is the most beautiful part of the world."
