Boucher, born June 2, 1979, is the middle child of seven daughters. The name "Butterfly" was a suggestion from a friend of the family. Her mother didn't initially like the name but kept seeing butterflies in pictures, on clothing, etc. before the birth. In later years, Butterfly's sister had a band, The Mercy Bell, in which Butterfly played bass guitar. In 2004 and 2005, Boucher toured the U.S. and Canada, opening for Sarah McLachlan and Barenaked Ladies.
Butterfly currently resides in the United States. She released her first track of the album, "I Can't Make Me," in the UK first. It did poorly. However, when she released that track along with "Another White Dash," her U.S. success was assured. While a second album is in the pipeline, there is no official date for its release.
Boucher sang David Bowie's "Changes" with Bowie on the soundtrack for Shrek 2.
Boucher sang "I'm Different" on the "For The Kids Too" CD which was released in 2004 and is currently available on iTunes.
A remix of Boucher's single, "I Can't Make Me" is featured on "Charmed: The Book Of Shadows," a soundtrack from the television show on The WB.
Boucher's songs "Life is Short" and "Never Leave Your Heart Alone" were featured on the hit show "Grey's Anatomy" during the first season. And the track "Bitter Song" was featured during season 3 of that same show.
From July 22 to Aug 6, 2008, Boucher toured with nine other artists from Tennessee as part of the Ten out of Tenn tour.

A Bitter Song
Butterfly Boucher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All I need to write is a bitter song to make me better. Much better.
Mmmm Mmmm Mmm
Mmmmm mmmm mmmm
It found me to hold me, but I don't like it at all.
Won't feed it, won't grow it, it's folded in my stomach.
It's not fair, I found love.
It made me say that.
Get Back you'll never see daylight, If I'm not strong, it just might.
All I need is a bitter song, to make me better. Much better.
All I need to write is a bitter song to make me better.
I feel better, I feel better.
In Butterfly Boucher's song A Bitter Song, the lyrics depict the power of music in healing emotional wounds. The singer seeks solace in a bitter song, one filled with painful emotion and raw vulnerability. The bitterness of the song is what helps her cope and ultimately heal. When the singer writes her own bitter song, she finds that it too has the power to heal and make her feel "much better."
The song also touches upon the complexities of love. The singer acknowledges how love can bring happiness, but also pain and confusion. When she says "It's not fair, I found love. It made me say that," she is referring to how love has made her vulnerable and emotional, leading her to write a bitter song.
The lyrics "Get back you'll never see daylight, If I'm not strong, it just might" convey a sense of determination and resilience. The singer knows that if she doesn't stay strong and use music as a cathartic outlet, she may succumb to her emotional pain and darkness.

Get back,

Tudo que eu preciso é uma música amarga
All I need is a bitter song
Para me fazer melhor
To make me better
Muito melhor

Tudo que eu preciso escrever é uma música amarga
All I need to write is a bitter song
Para me fazer melhor
To make me better

Me encontrou
It found me
para me abraçar
to hold me
Mas eu não gosto nada disso
But I don't like it at all
Não vai alimentá-lo,
Won't feed it,
Não vai crescer
Won't grow it
Está dobrado no meu estômago;
It's folded in my stomach;
Não é justo,
It's not fair,
Eu encontrei o amor;
I found love;
Isso me fez dizer isso.
It made me say that.
Voltam,
Get back,
Você nunca
You'll never
ver a luz do dia;
see daylight;
Se eu não sou forte
If I'm not strong
apenas poderia.
it just might.
Tudo que eu preciso é uma música amarga
All I need is a bitter song
Para me fazer melhor
To make me better
Muito melhor
Much better
Tudo que eu preciso escrever é uma música amarga
All I need to write is a bitter song
Para me fazer melhor
To make me better
eu me sinto melhor
I feel better
eu me sinto melhor
I feel better

Always boasting my emotions
On how I'm so fucking broken
Think I'm joking
When I'm talking
About blowing my head open
Till the moment you walk in
And find my body motionless
Wrists slit
Thoughts of slick keep falling in an open pit
This will be my final post. Goodbye no one.
Lyle Lyle the Crocodile
It’s insane to me how someone would find a song like this and know how to sample it to reach hundreds of millions of people. It’s like watching music evolve and both artists played a roll. Like mom and stepdad.
thebutterflyboucher
pretty wild.
Zombie23Maniac
You're taking music throughout the past 300 years
Alden Legge
Dang after hearing the $uicideboy$ version, 1:19 gave me chills. She wrote a genius piece of music and only sang it once!
Weronika
why once?
thebutterflyboucher
less is more.
thebutterflyboucher
but sometimes somebody finds the subtle gem and makes more of it and that's cool too. It's all good.
Spailon
I got hella goosebumps from hearing that after hearing kill yourself part 3 on repeat for so long
Spailon

Most of y’all are $uicideboy$ fans, like me, but y’all also got to appreciate how good this song is aswell.
