Badly Drawn Boyis an independent singer-songwriter, born Damon Gough October 2, 1969 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, although the family returned to Bolton, Lancashire before Gough reached the age of one. Gough chose his stage name from a character that appeared in the cartoon show "Sam And His Magic Ball" which he saw on TV at a party in Trafford, Manchester in 1995. Before he thought of using this name he made some 'business cards', each one unique, with a printed picture of a drawing by his nephew, and a small collage by Gough. This was then laminated and given out to friends and people at clubs in Blackburn and Manchester. His 2000 album The Hour of Bewilderbeastwon a prestigious Mercury Prize.

Badly Drawn Boy
Camping next to water
Fish infested slaughter
I feed the fishes into me
Its a misty within reason
Im hoping I dont freeze here
I fuel the fire, I feed its glow
But theses no use in feeling
All the things Im feeding
Theres no one here to feel with me
The second is easier
Though it may be breezier
And the snow is falling down
But as the fire smoulders
I will never will grow older
Because I drink from waterfalls
The stars above shine on me
Ill catch and save them in a jar
My feet a mass of blisters
Collecting frost on whiskers
As I taste the moring dew
I think my mind is clearer now
I want you to be nearer now
Im ready t come back to you
Cause theres no use in feeling
All the things Im feeling
Theres no one here to feel with me.
