Badly Drawn Boy

Last week, while I was trying to kill my downtime by looking at the websites of my favorite artists, I found out that the UK Band, Badly Drawn Boy, has a new CD coming out in October. What's more, I discovered that they are actually coming to San Francisco in October. Without any hesitation, I purchased a ticket to see them play at Great America Music Hall in San Francisco Downtown.

I started noticing the band because they contributed a few songs to the soundtrack of "About A Boy." I watched the movie and loved it a lot. I ended up getting the soundtrack because I just love their songs a lot!

I checked on their website and found that they have a new song titled "Nothing's Gonna Change Your Mind." The first three lines of the lyrics caught my immediate attention. It's basically a vivid reflection of what has been going on in my life in the past two weeks. You can click on the link of the band's name below to listen to it.

Enjoy!

Nothing's Gonna Change Your Mind - by Badly Drawn Boy

This would be easier if you'd understand
Face the truth and realise that none of this was planned
The way we worry about such little things
Take a time to take the break
darling spread your wings
I stole all the roses that make your crown
Now it's easier
to just put aside the things that face us now

Let's dance! To the beat of the drum!
Let's go out! Where we don't know anyone!
Cause it's you! I don't need anyone else!
I got you! I don't need anyone else but you...

strange how something comes from nothing
I came around to your way
of thinking about these things
saw your face in a crowd
I knew that you were special
and ****** change my world
if i could help you now

but nothing's gonna change your mind
and no one's gonna help you now
if nothing's gonna change your mind
then no one's gonna help you find
your place in this world
so strange we don't need *************

Let's dance! To the beat of the drum!
Let's go out! Where we don't know anyone!
Cause it's you! I don't need anyone else!
I got you! I don't need anyone else but yoooooooouuuuuuu!!!!!!

and no one could ask for more

but nothing's gonna change your mind
and no one's gonna help you now
if nothing's gonna change your mind
then no one's gonna help you now
