Biography

Born in May 2, 1974, Bromham, Bedfordshire, England, Matt Berry is an actor, voice actor and musician best known for his roles on the British sitcoms [i]The IT Crowd[/i], [i]The Mighty Boosh[/i], [i]What We Do In The Shadows[/i], [i]Toast Of London[/i] and [i]Toast In Tinseltown[/i]. Along with Rich Fulcher, he created and starred in the cult comedy series [i]Snuff Box[/i], which featured songs written and composed by Berry. He also wrote the 2004 parody rock opera [i]AD/BC[/i] for BBC Three. As well as an actor, Berry also has a very colourful musical career, most of which through the label [l997]. The majority of his music is self composed, but every now and then, he has input from his band The Maypoles, who also perform live on his concerts. His most famous song is Take My Hand, as used in Snuff Box during the Elton John sketch, and in Toast Of London as the main theme. Berry's music style varies from progressive to experimental folk, all tied together with an electronic feel, with various reccurring melodies. He has also written music for TV and has contributed to the [i]Strictly Come Dancing[/i] theme song.

LYRICS

So take my hand
we'll disappear to above the sun
to far from here
no, i don't know you and you don't know me
i just had to talk to you, you see
the arrogance, a foolish move
if you take a risk, your hearts improve

see, you don't know me and i don't know you
i'm not weird, or queer, my aim is true

so take my hand
we'll disappear to above the sun
to far from here
no, i don't know you and you don't know me
i just had to talk to you, you see

so say you'll come, please come girl
you could be the one for all i know
no i don't know you
but i'd sure like to
i just see the light, it looks like you

so take my hand
