It's not technically music unless there's at least 3 tenor saxophone solos per track... but it's a fine effort at melody driven voice lumps

I honestly didn't notice. I was concentrating so hard on his exceptional music that brought me to tears, and that beautiful softly spoken babble when he was answering questions. But to answer the anomaly: In art, a paintbrush looks like a paintbrush, it is the artist who adds his soul to create a painting. In music, headphones look like headphones, the artist hears the sound and converts it into a song. Therefore, James Blake is an amazing artist!
