Badly Drawn Boy - ‘Nothing's Going To Change Your Mind’ (EMI) Released 09/10/06

From under that tea cosy on his head, Badly Drawn Boy has returned with, ‘Nothing's Going To Change Your Mind,’ the first official single to be lifted from his forthcoming album ‘Born in the UK.’ Although, as expected from Damon Gough, the arrangement and construction of harmonies are as good as ever, you get the impression we’ve heard this all before. “No ones going to help you find your place in this world,” he pronounces as you reach for the tissues. Thin on originality, this single shows it’s not just his hair that needs conditioning.
