Blunt's debut album, Back to Bedlam, was released by Atlantic Records in the United Kingdom in October 2004 and peaked at number one on the UK Albums Chart in July 2005 and within the top five across most of Europe. It also peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 in the United States. The album has sold over eleven million copied worldwide and has been certified ten times platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in the UK.[1] Back to Bedlam produced the singles "High", "Wisemen" and "Goodbye My Lover". The most successful single released from the album, "You're Beautiful", went to number one on the UK Singles Chart, Irish Singles Chart, Dutch Top 40 and the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States.

Chasing Time: The Bedlam Sessions, a live album and DVD package, was released in February 2006. Blunt's second studio album, All the Lost Souls, was released in September 2007 and contained the singles "1973", "Same Mistake", "Carry You Home", "I Really Want You" and "Love, Love, Love". The album was less successful than Back to Bedlam, but still managed to top the charts around the world. Blunt's third album, Some Kind of Trouble was released in November 2010 and it debuted at number four in the UK.[2]
