Drew showed the world that with the help of MySpace and great word of mouth, anyone with worthwhile work ethic and talent can start a monumental snowball effect towards success. After recording an EP by himself in his basement, NeverShoutNever! became an instant online success story, averaging over 40,000 online plays a day, and headlining shows throughout the Midwest. In early July, he was positioned in the top spot on the MySpace unsigned artist listing, and his first official release, the YIPPEE EP (July 29th), was followed up by a performance on TRL’s “on your radar” segment the very next day.
Drew started his climb to stardom in mild fashion. He learned to play the guitar from a friend early in his teen years. Then, his parents bought him a Macintosh computer for Christmas and with some sound-editing software, Drew was on his way to stardom.
As of November 17, 2008, the official spelling of Ingle's alias became NeverShoutNever! It had previously been listed as Never Shout Never on iTunes and his management company’s site. An official statement regarding the reason behind the spelling change has not been made available. In an interview, Ingle revealed that there is no longer an exclamation point after his name and that he will spell NeverShoutNever as one word when he is feeling happy, but three words when he isn’t. Warner Bros. Records is spelling his name as “Never Shout Never” for the upcoming release.
After experimenting with a couple of other names, Drew settled on Never Shout Never, the name of one of his songs, to represent him musically.
Ingle follows a strict vegan diet. His music career caused him to drop out of his high school, Joplin Senior High, before graduation.

Never Shout Never Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't think I know you, but I know fo' sho'
That you are beautiful, so baby let me know
Your name
Damn what's her name?
'Cause I'm overly attracted
And terribly convinced
And I felt that way, since
Since I saw Jane Doe
Jane Doe

And I felt that way, since
Since I saw Jane Doe
She's everything I want and more
She's everything I want for sure
She's everything that I want to adore
Well baby I am overly attracted
And terribly convinced
That you could be my lover
But I think I lost my chance
You had me at first glance
Oh my Jane Doe

I haven't listened to this song in years, it makes me happy to hear it again

You know I haven't listened to this song since I considered myself "emo" or "scene" as I preferred it to be called 8 years ago. As a grown man listening to these words pass through my ears again I feel as if I'm finding my heart for the second time.. I hope everyone who reads this can learn from me to never be afraid to express yourself. Because when I became afraid, i forgot who I was.
A new world
