James Morrison (born James Morrison Catchpole; 13 August 1984) is a BRIT Award-winning English singer-songwriter and guitarist from Rugby, Warwickshire. In 2006, his debut single "You Give Me Something" became a hit in Europe, Australia, and Japan, peaking in the top five in the UK and New Zealand. His debut album, Undiscovered, debuted at the top of the UK Albums Chart. He released his second album, Songs for You, Truths for Me in 2008, which entered the top five in the UK as well as topping the Irish Albums Chart. Songs for You, Truths for Me featured the top ten singles "You Make It Real" and his critically acclaimed collaboration with Nelly Furtado titled "Broken Strings". He has performed with Jason Mraz, Nelly Furtado, and others in concerts and in songs. Morrison wrote a song for Italian singer Marco Carta entitled "Quello che dai", which debuted at number one in the official chart.
Morrison was born in the town of Rugby, Warwickshire, where he was surrounded by the influence of his parents' record collection; his mother was a fan of soul while his father enjoyed listening to folk and country. He began playing guitar when his uncle Joe showed him how to play a blues riff. As a teenager he started busking when he lived in the village of Porth, near Newquay, Cornwall, in a local pub called the Phoenix which is in Watergate Bay. He used to practice playing his guitar on the prom looking over Porth beach. He took GCSE music at Treviglas Community College. After some years of covering other musician's songs, he eventually started to write his own. He attributes his distinctive voice to a severe bout with whooping cough that nearly killed him when he was a baby.

Genres: Drama, Short,My Uprising
Sitting here, thinking of my downfall
Started with you and ended in my downfall
My happiness was never meant to be
Always bout you, never about me and my downfall
Things can only get better
Theres been a change in the weather
Pretty soon it will be time for my uprising, my uprising
All of my plans got crushed in your hands, I was so low
We were together for far too long, I had to go solo
Plotted my course when alls said and done
Heading out for that setting sun sinking so low
Things can only get better
Theres, theres been a change in the weather
Pretty soon it will be time for my uprising, my uprising
Theres no stopping me now
Theres no stopping me now
Theres no stopping me and my uprising
Things can only get better
Things have got to get better
Theres been a change in the weather
Pretty soon it will be time for my uprising
My uprising
There aint no turning back
