Johnny Boy were an indie pop band from Liverpool, England which consisted of two members; the London born Lolly Hayes and the Liverpool resident Davo (the latter of which is a pseudonym). Both of them, when asked about their roles in the duo, commonly specified them by giving the generic answer of "Vocals, loops and guitars".
Formed in 2002, Johnny Boy took their name from Robert De Niro’s character in Martin Scorsese's film, Mean Streets. Their debut single, "Johnny Boy Theme" featured Scorsese's opening voice-over from the film.
Their single "You Are The Generation That Bought More Shoes And You Get What You Deserve" was produced by James Dean Bradfield (of Manic Street Preachers) and achieved critical acclaim. The single reached #50 in the UK Singles Chart in August 2004. Bradfield also co-produced their debut album, Johnny Boy, which received mixed reviews.
Johnny Boy described their sound as "Church bells, boy-girl vocals, loops, twists, warps, walls of sound and edgy guitars combined to rekindle the idea of Sandinista!-era Clash having an, erm, shootout with Phil Spector".
Johnny Boy is the 2006 debut album by British indie pop duo Johnny Boy. It contains their previously released singles "You Are the Generation That Bought More Shoes and You Get What You Deserve" and "Johnny Boy Theme," which were extremely well received by critics despite limited distribution.
The album was co-produced by James Dean Bradfield of Manic Street Preachers.
The NME gave it 5/10 finding nothing lived up to their debut single. Pitchfork agreed, giving 5.2/10; they also criticised the limited range of singer Lolly.

It's about being young and following the call of the Lord and the wild into unfamiliar places. I was honored to do it and am really excited to release this to you all! Thank you for supporting me and enabling me to continue to do my craft. - - - - - - - - - - - Christopher Burkholder: https://facebook.com/christopherburkholdermusic http://instagram.com/christopher_burkholder https://twitter.com/cmlburkholder https://youtube.com/user/cburk581 Kathryn Burkholder Productions: https://facebook.com/KathrynBurkholderProductions - - - - - - - - - - - Audio Produced by Christopher Burkholder Arrangement by Chri...

He stays home home for work this time
He never really told his wife
He never really told a lie but this time he decides that it's alright.
It's alright.
No one really knows his mind and no one knows behind his eyes.
The man deserves a medal
But he's never really won a prize before.
He goes to lock the door.
He is falling
And though he knows it's not
The world looks down and frowns.
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy,
Get up cause the world as left you lying on the ground.
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.
We all need you now.
Someone said where you going
Someone said to you goodbye
They deflect the disrespect when they say that they blame it on the times
They blame it on the time.
We all know you're qualified to fix a chair and love your wife
They all know you're qualified but they lie when they blame it on the times.
And we blame it on the times.
Oh he is falling
And though he knows it's not
The world looks down and frowns.
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy
Get up cause the world as left you lying on the ground.
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.
We all need you now
I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
And I will carry all your names and I will carry all your shame
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy
Get up cause the world as left you lying on the ground.
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
Get up Johnny boy because we all need you now.
Get up Johnny boy, get up Johnny boy
Get up cause the world as left you lying on the ground.
You're my pride and joy, you're my pride and joy.
