Daniel Bedingfield Facts
- He had shifted to the UK when he was 3 months old.
- Daniel had recorded his debut album at home with the help of audio software.
- His most-loved, on-the-go, and handy software has been FourTrack that he has used by simply starting a new song, and then launching into whatever that has run in his head, letting his body set the tempo. Daniel has usually put down a bass line as well as a beatbox at the same time. He has added that he has often recorded an idea while he has been climbing, such as on top of a rock face.
- His mother was the founder and CEO of Global Angels, for which Daniel has done fundraising work.
- Daniel has found it easy to walk down any street in America with everyone knowing his songs, yet hardly recognizing him. However, it has been quite the contrary in England, where he has to be with someone if he is on the street as his fans have always started to flock around him. Daniel has gone on to explain how he was in a ballet one day and had to sign 70 autographs.
