Career

Early career

Black was originally the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of alternative rock band The Servant. He was a member of the band from their conception in 1998 to their split in 2007.

2008–2012

Debut Single, Debut Album and 'HYPNTZ' Controversy In 2008, Black released a solo single, "HYPNTZ". The song's lyrics were taken from rapper The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Hypnotize", while its instrumental sampled a cover of "Starman" by the City of Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and Rihanna's "Umbrella". used. The single received positive reviews, with one critic commenting: "It achieves its magic formula in a manner that is both arbitrary and obvious, which is a part of its brilliance. The Umbrella break + Starman soundtrack + a beautiful melodic rendering of a gangsta rap staple: we know exactly what has been done here, and this is why it sounds so good". However, before a planned music video could be shot, The Notorious B.I.G.'s estate informed Black's team of their objection to the use of the "Hypnotize" lyrics. The "HYPNTZ" single was consequently taken out of circulation and the video scrapped.

Alone

by: Dan Black

Your words are coat hanger thin
Why are you speaking at all?
Why are you torturing me?
No, I don't want this at all.
I see the burn in your cheeks
as you change what was truth
You offer pieces of nothing
as irrefutable proof.
And if the sky does fall down
Like you tell me it should
I doubt I'll even notice
I doubt I even could
I'm too busy just laughing
at the voice in my head
that keeps on telling me secrets
about what you once said.
You've never looked more beautiful
I've never felt so alone
And as this time passes by
I find I'm listening more
To this language you're using
But your grammar is poor
I'd swear I heard you say
that you loved me way back when
Perhaps a previous life-time
And this absolves you of sin
And if I had the strength to argue
Then perhaps I'd beg to differ
But instead I'll nod my head
As my muscles get much stiffer
My thoughts are turning away
from this ranting that you rave
I find I think of just one phrase
A single thought my mind will save
You've never looked more beautiful
I've never felt so alone
And if you think you know why I'm here
all alone
You are so wrong
You haven't got a clue what I'm trying
