A pop singer from Canada whose songs are most of the time accompanied by the sound of a piano and other beats and sound loops.

Still kind of new to the music scene considering he released his debut self-titled album in 2005, he is more than likely to be flamed by people who don't like the sound of pop music.

But everyone has different taste in music. I hate pop music myself, yet his played out song titled "Bad Day" is appealing to me. If you hate Daniel Powter and know someone who listens to him, keep your mouth shut and deal with the fact that there is still a thing in the world called individuality, and that not everyone can be a clone of you.

And I'm sure ignorance of this artist may soon rise in this web site, and someone will more than likely post a definition saying something like "A fucking queer ass pop singer from Canada who never takes his fucking beanie off and even wears it with a dress suit. Wtf is up with that?"

Well to prevent that from happening, the truth is that he wears that beanie to hide a scar that he got from a car accident as a child. You really can't blame him for something like that, can you?
Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around

Get the Daniel Powter mug.
(Duh-n'yell-Pout-rrr) n: a redundant product of Canada's continuing contribution - along with Nickelback and Avril Lavigne - to mediocre, market-determined, manufactured musical merde for the masses. If mind-numbing prescription drugs were made mandatory by totalitarian governments to keep its citizens regularly pacified it would be in the audio form of this "musician". If Dr. Phil wrote songs they would take the lyrical form of this "artist's" album(s). Like Maroon 5 and James Blunt, Daniel Powter goes to show that after 9/11 there seems to never be enough watered-down maudlin pop to reassure emotional secretaries and soccer moms in North America.
Everytime I hear that Daniel Powter song I'm guaranteed to have a "bad day"--starting from those notes that I've heard before in "Easy" by The Commodores/Faith No More. I wish the receptionist at my place of work would learn to like better music - or MORE music, since her favourite radio station plays Daniel Powter and other derivative, unoriginal pop acts every hour on the hour! I don't need some guy telling me what's wrong with me when he feels like a million bucks and I'm feeling like shit at that moment; I'll turn on afternoon TV if I want that, not listen to some hoser who looks like that white rapper of (1990s) "Informer" infamy!
