I know he was 15 when he wrote this song but I wonder how old he is singing it. He doesn't sound like a teenager but he may be. It is fascinating to see how this amazing talent developed over the years and how he came to be what he is today.
@divanahi It was actually when he was 17-18 that it was recorded - I bought a copy of this CD from him and Bobby Kerr when they were seniors in high school (I graduated BSSHS two years after he did). It was a 5-track demo on Memorex CD-Rs with a paper insert for the cover, the first and last track were the same (Somber), the difference being that the last was the accoustic version of the first.
I think this is a great first song. It's fun to blast on your car radio with the windows down. I think it's cute that he doesn't like this song. I wonder if he would be shocked at how many of us know about this song. LOL
Eep! I don't think this song is going to find its way on my playlist anytime soon... But it's not bad for his first song. We all have to start somewhere. ;)
I've always loved this and have felt a little emabrrassed about liking it so much. But it's a happy song with snarky lyrics and a great beat. I'm sold.
well it wasn't the whole logo..just the sun..but i don't really remember where the tat was..either his leg or upper back.. but i was like ten so i don't really remember haha
and 2 think he calls this 'terrible'...give urself some credit, David! This is quite descent for being written by a 15 year old

Holy shit, if David was singing like this in high school, then it's no WONDER he won American Idol!

Pahahaha. I love this song.
It sounds really sexy. And the tune is really like...easy to get stuck in your head. Brilliant.
Not a song of Axium's or David's that I don't like.
