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 ↴
If timings everything stop telling me you're taking your time
I know you're anxious but you're running your mouth like you're five
Years old again
It's so hard to pretend
Like I know everything
I wanted you to see
That I got nothin
I'll sit back
And I'll watch the show
Yeah I'll watch the show
And I'll lay awake
And I'll watch the stars as they collide
In my eyes they don't see
And I don't breathe the way I used to
Yeah my lips whoa, they don't sing
And I won't be the way I was on that night
Steady breathing
Is all I can advise to a girl with a sweet tooth for revenge
I know I'm crazy but it's so hard to pretend
Like I know everything
I don't know anything
I wanted you to see
I'll sit back
And I'll watch the show
Yeah I'll watch the show
And I'll lay awake
And I'll watch the stars as they collide
In my eyes they don't see
And I don't breathe the way I used to
Yeah my lips whoa, they don't sing
And I won't be the way I was on that night
Was the night everybody agreed I was wrong about you
I told them you were being so strong
I knew you were a liar,
I knew you were a liar from the start
Was the night everybody agreed I was wrong about you
I told them you were being so strong
I knew you were a liar,
I knew you were a liar from the start
Don't treat me like I'm playing a game
'Cause baby I don't want to lose,
Baby I don't want to risk it all for you
In my eyes they don't see
And I don't breathe the way I used to
Yeah my lips whoa, they don't sing
And I won't be the way I was on that night
The lyrics of "Here goes nothin'" by Never Shout Never talk about the fear of losing someone or something that one desires. The singer is asking the person not to delay as time is of the essence. However, the person is taking their time and playing hard to get, causing the singer to feel frustrated and angry. He admits that he doesn't know everything and can't control everything, but the fear of losing what he wants is taking over him. He's aware that he's not the same person anymore, and he can't pretend to be. He's lost his breath, his voice, and his passion due to the situation.
The singer advises the girl to breathe steadily, not giving in to the temptation of seeking revenge. He admits he's crazy about her, but he can't pretend anymore. He knows he was wrong about her and tells the story of how he defended her to others. He's not playing a game and doesn't want to lose what he's risking for. He's not the same person anymore, and he won't be the same as he used to be.
Overall, the song talks about the fear of losing something or someone that we want, the frustration and anxiety that comes with it, and the realization that we can't control everything.
Line by Line Meaning
Check, check one two, alright here goes nothin
Getting ready to speak my mind
If timings everything stop telling me you're taking your time
Don't beat around the bush, just be honest about what you want
I know you're anxious but you're running your mouth like you're five
You're acting childish and making excuses instead of facing the truth
It's so hard to pretend
Putting on a false persona is exhausting
Like I know everything
I don't have all the answers
I don't know anything
I can't control everything
I wanted you to see
I hoped you would understand my perspective
That I got nothin
I have nothing to hide or hold back
I'll sit back
I'll observe silently
And I'll watch the show
I'll see how things play out
And I'll lay awake
I'll be restless and unable to sleep
And I'll watch the stars as they collide
I'll witness natural chaos and destruction
In my eyes they don't see
People don't understand or relate to me
And I don't breathe the way I used to
I'm not the same person I once was
Yeah my lips whoa, they don't sing
I can't express myself as easily or artistically
And I won't be the way I was on that night
I've accepted that things have changed and won't return to the past
Steady breathing
Taking deep breaths to calm down
Is all I can advise to a girl with a sweet tooth for revenge
Trying to give advice to someone who is vengeful and irrational
I know I'm crazy but it's so hard to pretend
Admitting to one's own flaws and shortcomings
Was the night everybody agreed I was wrong about you
A pivotal moment when others formed a negative opinion about someone I defended
I told them you were being so strong
Trying to convince others that someone had good intentions
I knew you were a liar,
Realizing that someone was deceitful
I knew you were a liar from the start
Having a gut feeling about someone's true character
Don't treat me like I'm playing a game
Stop acting like our interactions are trivial or manipulative
'Cause baby I don't want to lose,
Because I care about what happens between us
Baby I don't want to risk it all for you
I'm not willing to take a chance if the outcome could negatively impact me
