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.

The Can Is Open Lyrics
Badly Drawn Boy
And now that the can is open
I can truly speak my mind
It's been working up til this fight
You know im not the lying kind
Let your secrets be mine tonight
Trust in your eyes to where they first met with mine
I'd be the person you'd fine
Oooooooh ooooooooh
Can't believe you didnt know it
Can't belive i didnt show it
Can't belive i didnt know it
I can't belive you didnt show it
All my secrets are out tonight
Trace all your steps to where they first cross with mine
Keep all the treasure you find
Trace all your steps to where they first cross with mine
I'd be the person you'd find
Oooooooh oooooooh
