Description:
Inspired by the film 'Nil by mouth'. It's about domestic violence. I tried to keep it simple but powerful. I wouldn't mind Amy Winehouse singing it.


Lyrics:
I need you like a hole in the head
But you'd kill me if you'd heard what I said

You beat me around
I don't make a sound
You've got a strange way of showing you care
The bruises don't show
and nobody knows
you've got a strange way of showing you care

To love, honour, obey
but that was just on our wedding day

You beat me around
I don't make a sound
You've got a strange way of showing you care
The bruises don't show
and nobody knows
you've got a strange way of showing you care

Hardware:
Aria Pro 2 electric guitar, acoustic, microphone

Software:

Welcome to MJ!
Strong song, interesting lyrics and a very tasty chord sequence. Would like to hear more of the bassline, but a cool mix overall. Like your voice a lot - some Kinks in there somewhere.

You're going to like it here :)

Belated welcome to MacJams
I agree with Steve Echoroom ... your own voice is great and sounds just right for the song.

It's a very nice song too - well written, great guitar sound and heartfelt performance. It sounds very British, which is a good thing in my book.

Glad I found your stuff, it's good!

Powerful
and simple like you said, lyrics are very good. You have a great voice, Amy would kill the song in my opinion.

Good stuff

Nice song
Well, if nice can be applied to this sort of subject matter. I like the delivery - sounds quite sixtiesish. Nice guitar work too.

Your voice is good, the arrangement & delivery are nice, it's also rich, varied, sorrowful, and powerful. Show's a lot of promise.
