Danny Swain, better known by his mononymous stage name Danny! (/ˈdæniˈ/ dan-EE), is an American recording artist and record producer.
Danny! is a former student of the Savannah College of Art & Design; he often wears a wool necktie and an Australian rounded crown boss-of-the-plains hat, and has gained notoriety for prank-calling celebrities. Danny! rose to prominence shortly following the proclamation by The Roots drummer Questlove that there was strong interest from JAY Z; he was subsequently signed as the flagship artist to Questlove's re-launched Okayplayer Records after years of being loosely affiliated with the company. In support of the new venture Danny! made his television debut on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, premiering his song "Evil" alongside The Roots.
Danny! would field praise for his concept records Charm and And I Love H.E.R., the latter named by ABC News as one of the best 50 albums released that year, before releasing the "anti-album" Where Is Danny?. After signing to Okayplayer Records in late 2012 Danny! completed his trilogy of conceptual albums with Payback, cited by Allmusic as one of the best hip-hop releases of the year. Ebony Magazine has listed Danny! among other rising artists in their "Leaders of the New School" piece, calling Danny! one of a handful of "innovators";GQ would later reiterate the same regarding Danny!'s music production. Currently Danny! is a songwriter/composer for Extreme Music, the production library music subsidiary of Sony/ATV Music Publishing.

There's a hole in my life
and I don't know the right way to close it
things I believed in have all crumbled one by one
might makin' right, cries in the night
but we chose it
I've been decieved and I will
wait here till they come
they will come
and the right hand knows
where the left one goes
the hammer comes down -
nobody knows
please take a number, get in line
I heard it on the radio
I heard it on the wind you know
hurricane about to blow
over and over again
Heard it on the radio
knew it in my heart you know
saw it on a tv show
saw it all fall apart
I remember a time when they
drew me a line and I crossed it
you left me hanging
you ran for higher ground
it was yours it was mine
it was pure it was fine
and we lost it
or was it only that we never
looked around - look around
and the right hand knows
where the left one goes
the hammer comes down -
nobody knows
please take a number, get in line
I heard it on the radio
I heard it on the wind you know
hurricane about to blow
over and over again
Heard it on the radio
knew it in my heart you know
saw it on a tv show
saw it all fall apart
Is this all just illusion?
Is this all just a dream?
Do you want fission or fusion
or do you want to talk to me
talk to me, talk to me, baby talk to me -
or do you want to scream?
