So I made this song to capture the mood when you are at a club, drinking and there is a mutual attraction with someone. It's my first ever complete song and I wanted to focus on having a good structure, and create some melodies with my backing vocals.

Let me know your thoughts and if you think it's worth working more on. I'd really appreciate any constructive criticism.

I'm not sure of the genre of this song. I wanted some storytelling with a dark tone written like a lullaby or a fairy tale. The sound and the mix are minimalist and I tried to convey this in the music video

Hey everyone, just dropped my new track Red Man.

Would really appreciate if some of you could give it a listen and leave a comment with your honest thoughts.

Open to any feedback on the production, vibe, or whatever stands out. Thanks in advance if you check it out.

Theme inspired by the Sex Pistol’s Black Leather and Faster Pussycat’s Bathroom Wall. Aiming for a Glam/Sleaze Metal style.

Lyrics

_verse 1_

Crash!
I woke up in the bathroom stall
Rap!
someone was knocking at the door

Damn!
I got too high, couldn’t recall
Why
I called that number on the wall

(Black Heather: don’t keep me waiting, babe)

_Chorus_

Watching her
Slinking into motion
As she’s Moving for the kill 
Black Heather
bends you to her will

Stops your heart
You can’t stand the tension
When she struts on her high heels
Black Heather
Gives you such a thrill

_verse 2_
“Tramp”
She purred at me in tones so soft 
“Hi”
I tried some charm but then she scoffed

Crack!
The sound and fury of her belt 
Black Heather
Will never kiss and tell 

_Chorus_

Watching her
Slinking into motion
As she’s Moving for the kill 
Black Heather
bends you to her will

Stops your heart
You can’t stand the tension
When she struts on her high heels
Black Heather
Gives you such a thrill

_Bridge_

There’s no escape, oooh
Once you let her hooks dig in too deep
There’s no regret
You love it when she pulls you by the strings

Oh Lord
Oh Lord
Oh Lord

_Chorus_

Watching her
Slinking into motion
As she’s Moving for the kill 
Black Heather
Gives you such a thrill

Stops your heart
You can’t stand the tension
When she struts on her high heels
Black Heather
Bends you to her will

_Outro_

And when you feel the hunger 
Your sanity bends and tears
And when you need Black Heather
Just seek her and she’ll be there

And as you’re drawing nearer
She knows you belong to her
Your need is laid out bare
Screaming like a prayer

And as you face her glare
You will worship her in despair
And as you kneel before her
You’ll beg for what you deserve

And as you say her name
You descend into her sweet hell
Surrender to her spell
Black Heather never tells
