Blunt song wakes girl from coma....it`s a miracle...


Recommended Posts

British popster James Blunt's song You're Beautiful has taken a beating of late, with even the singer himself referring to it as "overplayed".

But Britain's Daily Mail has revealed that the song might have miracle powers.

Five-year-old Claudia De'Alwis, had been a coma for 10 days following a head-first plunge from a five-metre balcony. She began to awake after her favourite song came over the hospital radio - it was Blunt's You're Beautiful.

Claudia's father, Paul D'Alwis, 40 told the newspaper he was convinced it was the song that brought her around.

"Claudia loves You're Beautiful and she used to sing it all the time. It was like her theme tune," he said.

"Following the accident, the doctors warned us she might not make it, and after 10 days in a coma we were desperately worried that she wasn't going to recover.

"But then the song came on the radio and she started to move for the first time, and we could tell she was starting to wake up.

"It was an unforgettable moment when she opened her eyes and acknowledged us at last."

Claudia, an only child, was playing on the balcony at a friend's house when the accident occurred. Her father said that, as the family lived in a single-storey house, she might have been unaware of the dangers of such heights.

Her family hope that she will be well enough to go home in time for her sixth birthday next month.

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
