Music Monday – Badly Drawn Boy

Ah, sweet little Badly Drawn Boy with his teacosy hat. He’s so cute. I’m sure a lot of you will listen to this song, called “Once Around the Block” and think “Oh! Is that what it is?!” because they love to use this song on endless TV advertisements and shows. It’s a beautiful song- very atmospheric and haunting. Just to make him even more special, he’s from Bedfordshire, which is where I’m from.

The video is an adorable little story of love- very cute, very moving and very touching. Perfect for the song. I couldn’t actually find any facts or information about it, but I don’t think we really need it because it’s lovely just as it is.

From the album: The Hour of Bewilderbeast

Released:  26 June 2000

Down at heels, music obsessed girl who works in admin. Frequently found talking nonsense on audio blogs, writing nonsense on written blogs or when the internet is down, talking to herself. Life lurches from one disaster to another, but at least it's amusing. I like cats and rats. My fear is they will one day form an allegiance and take over the world. You saw it here first.
