Duncan James

Duncan James is a British singer and actor, best known as a member of the boy band Blue. Born Duncan Matthew James Inglis on April 7, 1978, in Salisbury, Wiltshire, he rose to fame with Blue alongside Lee Ryan, Antony Costa, and Simon Webbe from 2000 to 2005 and again from 2011 onwards. The band achieved significant success with hits like "All Rise" and represented the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2011. James has also pursued a solo career, releasing albums such as "Future Past" in 2006, which included singles like "Sooner or Later" and "Can't Stop A River." His solo work also includes the duet "I Believe My Heart" with Keedie, which reached number two in the UK charts in 2004.

However, the song "The Speed of Life" seems to be associated with a different artist, an Australian singer also named Duncan James, known for his album of the same name released in 2003. This Australian artist is distinct from the British Duncan James associated with Blue. For clarity, the British Duncan James is the one linked to the majority of the mentioned releases, while "The Speed of Life" is from the Australian artist.
