Daniel Richard Powter (born February 25; 1971) is a Canadian Grammy Award-nominated recording artist. He grew up in Vernon; in the Okanagan Valley region of British Columbia. Daniel Powter released his debut album -I-m Your Betty- in 2000. The album; limited to a very small print; contains 10 songs; two of which -More Than I- and -Negative Fashion- were both featured on the television show Higher Ground (TV series).He was also nominated at the 2006 Billboard Music Awards for Hot 100 single of the year for his hit single -Bad Day-; but lost. However -Bad Day- was still named Billboard #1 song of the year in 2006. If Powter does not have another Hot 100 hit; he will become the only true one-hit wonder to have recorded Billboard-s #1 song of the year. "Jimmy Gets High" is the second single from Daniel Powter's self-titled second album. It followed the single "Free Loop", from the same album. The song features Powter singing in a very high-pitched voice. The album sold 500,000 copies, but "Jimmy Gets High" did not fare as well, not charting in the US but charting in Canada.Daniel Richard Powter (born February 25; 1971) is a Canadian Grammy Award-nominated.
