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.

Lust
Never Shout Never Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
These modern times evaporated any chance for trust
To live a fool or die alone
To say goodbye or be disowned
Make a choice or live inside the gray
I know everybody knows
Everybody knows it takes time
To figure it out
I've been so preoccupied with lust
The rush it takes me over
Then it leaves me more fucked up
To be a perv or be a prude
To make false love or push on through
Trusting that she really does exist
The one you heard about
When you were still a child
Don't give up just yet
You still got so much time
To figure it out
I've been so unsatisfied with touch
See I've kissed 7 thousand women
Yet I still can't get enough
To have some fun or sleep alone
To hit the bars or just go home
Make your choice or live inside the gray
I'm okay
I just wanna fall in love
I just wanna fall in love
I just wanna fall in love
I just wanna fall in love
The song “Lust” by Never Shout Never touches upon the themes of love, trust, lust and the difficulty of making choices when it comes to relationships. The song begins with the singer feeling disinterested in love, blaming it on the modern times that have made trust a difficult thing to come by. The choices he must make are laid out – to live a fool or die alone, to say goodbye or be disowned – and he encourages himself to make a decision, rather than live inside the gray.
The second verse of the song speaks about the singer's preoccupation with lust, how it takes him over and then leaves him feeling more messed up. He wonders if he should be a perv or a prude, make false love or push on through, and trusts that there is someone out there who really exists. He encourages the listener not to give up yet, but to keep figuring it out.
The final verse speaks about the singer’s unsatisfying experiences with touch, having kissed thousands of women yet still not feeling content. He wonders if he should have some fun or sleep alone, hit the bars or just go home. He reminds himself that he's okay with whatever decision he makes, as long as he falls in love. The song ends on a hopeful note, with the singer repeating his desire to fall in love.
