“Once Around the Block,” with its jazzy percussion and scatted chorus, is bound to stick in your head for days. The track is on the debut full-lengthy of Damon Gough (who records under the name Badly Drawn Boy), a disc that earned Britain’s Mercury Prize for Best Album in 2000.
He also composed the soundtrack to the movie “About A Boy.” His third album, Have You Fed The Fish?, was released in 2002, and a fourth album One Plus One Is One was released in 2004.
