Biography

Born: May 5, 1981, Southampton, Hampshire, England Soulful vocalist whose early releases were a defining factor in the UK garage sound. More recently he has been moving towards a standard RNB style. David was born in Holyrood, Southampton, Hampshire, the son of Tina (née Loftus), a retail assistant at Superdrug, and George David, a carpenter. David's father is a Grenadian and David's mother is an English Jew related to the founders of the Accurist watch-making company; David's maternal grandfather was an Orthodox Jew and his maternal grandmother a convert to Judaism. David's parents separated when he was eight and he was raised by his mother. He attended Bellemoor School. David's father played bass in a reggae band called Ebony Rockers. As a teen, David began accompanying his father to local dance clubs, where DJs let him take the microphone. David's earliest exposure came when he worked on a b-side to British group Damage's cover of "Wonderful Tonight". He then started doing vocals for a few tracks with garage act Artful Dodger. The song "Re-Rewind", from the Artful Dodger album It's All About the Stragglers, hit Number 2 on the UK charts in 1999; thus, paving the way for a solo career. David's first single, "Fill Me In", released on Colin Lester's and Ian McAndrew's Wildstar Records made him the youngest solo male artist ever to reach Number 1 in the United Kingdom (he was 18 years old at the time). This was the first of a string of four Top 10 singles from his debut album Born To Do It, which eventually sold more than seven million units worldwide, earning multi-platinum status in more than 20 countries. The song "Key To My Heart", taken from the US version of the album, was also featured on the award-winning Warner Brothers animated film Osmosis Jones.

LYRICS

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Every time I show you, vibes you cannot see it (Yeah, yeah)
Every time I tell the truth, you don't believe it (Yeah, yeah)
Don't tell me I don't know about commitment (Yeah, yeah)
When I was the only one to show you different (Yeah, yeah)

It don't be the same no more
I can see, you can see
It don't be that way no more (Yeah, yeah), yeah
You running around like u don't have feelings anymore, yeah (Yeah)
It's cool if you out, no doubt if you leave, then say no more
No more, no more

'Cause when you go left I just go right
Mm, but you still want it all night
We just play chess when we collide
Mm, think it's right about time (Yeah)

Every time I show you vibes, you cannot see it (No, yeah, yeah)
Every time I tell the truth, you don't believe it (Yeah, yeah)
Don't tell me I don't know about commitment (Yeah, yeah)
When I was the only one to show you different (Yeah, yeah)

Differently (Oh, yeah)
We fell in love instantly (Oh, yeah)
You're a man on a mission
Stacking your paper
So I kept a distance, babe (Oh, yeah)
We were self-destructing like kamikaze
Though you said I'm a snack, I belong in the pantry
You do these things to me
Like fire mek we rekindle it (Oh)

But when you go left, I just go right
Mm, but I still want it all night
Undo this dress, show me your might
'Cause you know I need it, baby (You know I need it)

Every time I show you vibes, you cannot see it (I, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Every time I tell the truth, you don't believe it
Don't tell me I don't know about commitment (No, no, no)
When I was the only one to show you different (Show me different, yeah)

I'm grown
I'm good good when I'm on my own
I'm making money, yeah, I be on the phone
Heart of stone, yeah, I been in the cold, you know
You told that we never fold
Sexy, elegance, always in control
You told me when we met we should go with the flow
It's cool you know my phone blowing up
I ain't showing up

Every time I show you vibes, you cannot see it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Every time I tell the truth, you don't believe it (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Don't tell me I don't know about commitment (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
When I was the only one to show you different (I was the only one, yeah, yeah, different)

It's the same thing nothing's changed, don't get it twisted (Yeah, yeah)
Done the right things right time, I kept it consistent (Consistent, consistent, yeah)
Every time you sent the message, you don't receive it (Yeah, yeah)
Every time we speak, I want you just to deep it, yeah (Yeah, yeah)

Oh
Commitment
Mm
Oh, baby
Yeah, yeah
