Badly Drawn Boy – About A Boy

The About A Boy soundtrack was written and performed by Badly Drawn Boy, balancing the artist’s independent spirit with the film’s emotional warmth.

The album blends gentle melodies, piano and guitar arrangements, and lyrics that move between humour and melancholy. Songs such as Silent Sigh, Something To Talk About and River Sea Ocean capture the bittersweet tone of the story and showcase Damon Gough’s gift for crafting intimate, understated pop songs.
