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.

Butterfly Boucher Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I might just like it
I might just love it
I might get busy
I might get lonely
I just don't know yet
Can't wait to find out
This is so
This is familiar
This is so
This is so foreign
That's okay
Foreign's familiar to me now
This could be so fun
I might just like it
I might just love it
I might get busy
I might get lonely
I just don't know yet
Can't wait to find out
I'm getting dizzy
I'm pacing wearing the floorboards through
This is so
This is so normal
And yet so new
This could be so fun
I might just like it
I might just love it
I might get busy
I might get lonely
I just don't know yet
Can't wait to find out
This isn't what I had in
This isn't what I had in mind
But you know
And I know
Its all I need and a little bit more
This could be so fun
I might just like it
I might just love it
I might get busy
I might get lonely
I just don't know yet
Can't wait to find out
I might just love it
The lyrics of Butterfly Boucher's song "Busy" convey a sense of anticipation and excitement towards the unknown. The singer of the song is experiencing something new, something that is at once familiar and foreign. The repeated affirmations of "this could be so fun, I might just like it, I might just love it" give us the impression that the singer is open to whatever comes their way, whether it be good or bad. The use of repetition here is effective in conveying the singer's uncertainty - they are unsure about whether they will enjoy this new experience or not, but they are willing to find out.
The second verse begins with the singer feeling "dizzy" and "pacing" because they are in uncharted territory. They are experiencing something that is simultaneously "normal" and "new," which can be disorienting. The repetition of "this is so" and the contrasting adjectives ("normal" and "new," "familiar" and "foreign") create a sense of tension and uncertainty, which is relieved by the optimistic refrain of "this could be so fun, I might just like it, I might just love it."
The final verse contains the lines "this isn't what I had in mind/but you know/and I know/it's all I need and a little bit more." Here we see the singer acknowledging that their expectations were not met, but they are still satisfied with what they have. The song ends with the repetition of the refrain, solidifying the idea that the singer is embracing the unknown and is excited to see where this new experience takes them.
