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 ↴
But I'm quite the joke to you
But girl it wasn't a joke when you kissed me in your room
And replied "I love you too"
I'm a little bit insecure
From all of this mistreatment
But see I'm working it out
Is so dam hard when your alone
And I am running out of words to say to you
Wondering why I'm wasting my time
Thinking back and wondering why I'm such a fool
For loving you
And I get to the point where all I wanted was for us to make up
But it's not that easy
'Cause girl you move on so quickly
Keeping a boy like me at the edge of his seat
And I know everything until it was all about your perfect image
Well I hope this song
It helps your image
I'm so over you now
And I am running out of words to say to you
Wondering why I'm wasting my time
Thinking back and wondering why I'm such a fool
For loving you
And I was the the one
Who thought I was the strong one
You proved me wrong now I'm singing along
To every song on the radio I don't wanna go
Come on baby tell me something I wanna know and I
Don't wanna say what is on my mind
Because this lack of motivation is taking over my time
And I'm sick
Of trying
And I am running out of words to say to you
Wondering why I'm wasting my time
Thinking back and wondering why I'm such a fool
For loving you
O'lay!
The song "Your Biggest Fan" by Never Shout Never is a heart-wrenching ode to unrequited love. The song portrays a one-sided love story, with the singer expressing his deep affection for a girl, who seems to barely acknowledge his existence. The song begins with the singer proclaiming his admiration for the girl, but also acknowledging how he is nothing more than a joke to her. However, when the girl, seemingly out of the blue, kisses him and admits to loving him too, the singer's insecurities begin to take hold. He realizes that he has been mistreated, but continues to work on their relationship despite the challenges.
The chorus of the song highlights the singer's frustration and confusion about why he continues to waste his time on someone who doesn't seem to reciprocate his love. He wonders why he's such a fool for loving her, but also expresses the desire to make up with her and move on from his pain. However, the girl moves on quickly, leaving him on the edge of his seat, hoping for her to come back.
The bridge of the song adds another layer of complexity to their relationship. The singer hints at the fact that the girl was very image-conscious and that he hoped that this song would help her image somehow. However, he clearly states that he is now over her and tired of trying to make things work.
Overall, "Your Biggest Fan" is a song that captures the pain and frustration of unrequited love. The lyrics are raw and emotional, and the melody perfectly complements the heart-wrenching subject matter.

I'm a real big fan of yours
I am a devoted follower of yours
But I'm quite the joke to you
However, you do not take me seriously
But girl it wasn't a joke when you kissed me in your room
When you kissed me in your room, it did not seem like a joke to me.
And replied "I love you too"
And told me that you loved me too.
I'm a little bit insecure
I lack confidence
From all of this mistreatment
As a result of the unfair treatment I have received
But see I'm working it out
But I am trying to overcome it
But working it out is so dam hard when your alone
It is a difficult process when I am doing it by myself
And I am running out of words to say to you
I have nothing left to say to you
Wondering why I'm wasting my time
I am questioning why I am investing my time in you
Thinking back and wondering why I'm such a fool
Reflecting on why I was foolish in loving you
For loving you
For having feelings towards you
And I get to the point where all I wanted was for us to make up
I reach a stage where I simply want us to reconcile
But it's not that easy
However, it is not a simple procedure
'Cause girl you move on so quickly
Because you progress rapidly from one thing to another
Keeping a boy like me at the edge of his seat
This keeps me anxious and excited
And I know everything until it was all about your perfect image
I thought I knew everything about you, but it turned out to be all about your flawless appearance
Well I hope this song It helps your image
I hope this song affects your image positively
I'm so over you now
I have now moved on from you
And I was the the one
I was the one
Who thought I was the strong one
I believed myself to be the sturdy one
You proved me wrong now I'm singing along
However, you proved me wrong and now I am singing along
To every song on the radio I don't wanna go
To every song on the radio, I refuse to depart
Come on baby tell me something I wanna know and I
Please tell me something I desire to know
Don't wanna say what is on my mind
I do not want to express what is on my thoughts
Because this lack of motivation is taking over my time
Due to my lack of motivation, I am wasting my time
And I'm sick
I am weary
Of trying
Of attempting
