James Blunt is in the headlines again. Not for his music nor for selling her sister on eBay. The singer has just had the piano he used to compose his hit "You're Beautiful" sold for a whopping £1,200 at an auction at London house Bonhams.
The music instrument, put on sale at the auction by buyers of the singer's Fulham flat where he previously lived with his sister, was sold to an unnamed bidder who wants to give it to his six-year-old daughter, who is said to be a big Blunt fan and is also learning to play the piano.
"The piano on which James composed his first pieces remains on the property and is included in the sale," the flat's buyers said.
"You're Beautiful" is Blunt's breakout hit, released as the third single from his 2005 album "Back to Bedlam." The song reached number one and number two in the UK and Australia respectively.
