4	Daisy May Keeley Coburn (also known as [[StageNames Daisy Dares You,]] born 27 October 1993) is an English {{pop}} and rock SingerSongwriter from Great Dunmow, Essex, England. Her debut single "Number One Enemy," featuring the rapper Chipmunk, was released in February 2010 after a bidding war resulted in her being signed to Jive Records. The single ultimately peaked at #13 on the charts.

6	Daisy had been singing, writing songs and playing both guitar and piano from a relatively young age, and modeled her creative output around "alternative" acts such as Music/{{Nirvana}}, Music/CourtneyLove, Music/LouReed, Music/FlorenceAndTheMachine, and Music/BatForLashes. In late 2007 she played a song she wrote called "Hurt" to her family and friends. In attendance was family friend Matthew Marston, who invited Daisy over to his house to record with him. She ended up recording the bulk of her demos in in Marston's studio, and Marston became her primary collaborator in songwriting and production.

8	Before she released ''Number One Enemy,'' Daisy had been subject to quite a bit of [[HollywoodHypeMachine hype]] from the press. She received promotional coverage in ''The Times,'' ''The Guardian,'' and Creator/TheBBC, where she was compared to everyone from Music/AvrilLavigne to Music/LilyAllen to even ''Music/PixieLott'' (Perhaps due to their similarities in appearance). She was touted by magazines as a future "style icon" due to her distinctive grungy look and she made countless promotional appearances, both live and in other media such as television, radio and music blogs.

10	However, the success of her first single did not carry over to her second single, entitled "Rosie". The song failed to chart and since the single's release nothing has been said about what was to be her debut album (entitled ''Rush'') or her music career in general.
11
12	She now works as a model and [[http://www.insanityartists.co.uk/artists/profile/daisy-dares-you-dj-sets/ a DJ]] and in 2011 did shoots for ''Vogue Japan'' and ''1883 Magazine''. As of 2020, she plays in the band Pink Lizards and continues to write and perform under Daisy Coburn.

21	----
22	!!This musician displays examples of:
23	* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: "Number One Enemy" is about the fights Daisy has with her younger sister Scarlet. Scarlet even gets a name drop during Chipmunk's rap in the song.
24	* AutoTune: Both the released version of "Number One Enemy" and "Rosie" feature it in ''spades''. However, the demo of "Number One Enemy" (featuring [=J2K=] in place of Chipmunk) is auto-tune free.
25	* BerserkButton: Regarding comparisons to Music/AvrilLavigne:
26	--> ''"Just because I'm female and young they have to put you in a box. Frankly, anyone who says I was influenced by Avril Lavigne can get stuffed"''.
27	** Regarding comparisons to Pixie Lott:
28	--> ''"I might be young, but I'm really not some blond little dolly girl... and I'm not gonna be a helpless artist."''
29	** And to comparisons in general:
30	--> ''"I’m getting a little sick of the artists I’m compared with... not naming any names."''
31	* BreakUpSong: The leaked demo "Next Few Minutes".
32	* CoverVersion: Her debut album was to contain a cover of "Who Will Buy" from ''Theatre/{{Oliver}}''.
33	* EmoTeen
34	* TheFashionista: Considering she was meeting with fashion houses at the start of her career, featured prominently in style magazines and is now working as a model, she most definitely is one.
35	* HiddenDepths:
36	--> ''"I like to bake cakes. And make jam."''
37	* IAmSong: "Daisy Dares You".
38	* IndecipherableLyrics: Usually caused by overproduction and her... ''[[TheUnintelligible distinct]]'' style of singing.
39	* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: The name 'Daisy Dares You' derives from a character in the children's TV show ''Zzap!''
40	* PepTalkSong: "Rosie", "You'll Be Fine".
41	* RockIsAuthenticPopIsShallow: Her attitude in 2009 and 2010, while ironically recording a whole pop album.
42	* ScaryMusicianHarmlessMusic
43	* SillyLoveSongs: “Talk About the Weather”.
44	* SurrealMusicVideo: "Number One Enemy", [[LyricsVideoMismatch despite being about warring siblings]], revolves around Literature/AliceInWonderland-type narrative.
45	* {{Synthpop}}: Daisy was one of many British electropop singers and groups to debut in 2009-2010. Some others included Little Boots, Music/MarinaDiamandis, Frankmusik and Music/LaRoux.
46	* {{Tsundere}}: As Chipmunk warns in "Number One Enemy", ''you don't really wanna be [[SingerNamedrop darin' Daisy]]''.
47	* UnkemptBeauty: Has shades of this in her style and image.
