My Tune "No Place To Hide" was forwarded to this listing.
Thank You to Listener # 344.

DRIVING and GRITTY CONTEMPORARY INDIE ROCK SONGS with Male or Female Vocals are needed by an A-List Hollywood Music Supervisor for an extremely popular Hit TV Series that’s gearing up for a new season. He’s eager to find killer Mid-to-Up-Tempo Songs in the general stylistic ballpark of bands like The White Stripes, The Von Bondies, Band of Skulls, etc., etc., etc. Please listen to the following songs as a guide for the feel, tone, and vibe he needs: “Icky Thump” by The White Stripes “No Regrets” by The Von Bondies “Hoochie Coochie” by Band of Skulls The songs you submit should sound like a real band, with an angst-driven Rock sound that’s full of raw energy, and a vocal performance with a ton of attitude. Your performance should have memorable guitar riffs, hard-hitting drums, and punchy bass lines. Catchy hooks and a killer chorus will go a long way in making this Supervisor love your song! Lyric themes should focus on the grittier side of life in a universal way, avoiding specific names, dates, times, brands, and profanity. Please do NOT copy or rip off the referenced artists or songs in any way, shape, or form. Use them as a general guide for tempo, tone, and overall vibe. Broadcast Quality is needed (great sounding home recordings are fine). The estimated license fee for this use is $1,000 - $3,000, depending on the placement. This is a Direct-to-Music Supervisor pitch, so you'll keep 100% of your Master and Publishing rights, plus you'll also get 100% of the sync fee and any applicable performance royalties. You must own or control 100% of the Master and Copyright to pitch for this opportunity. All songs will be screened on a Yes/No basis by a person hand picked by the Music Supervisor.

If anyone should like to listen,

Thank You Taxi,

Lots of good energy; congrats.
fwiw: since it's the most repeated line, and sounds like the hook & Chorus,
"Beautiful Girl" seems like a more appropriate title, imho.
Cheers,
Peter

Yea Peter I thought of that but "No Place To Hide" sounds cooler? No?

To be honest... that's a good title; but seems more fitting to a story-line and music that's kinda dark; maybe even a bit sad and dejected... not so energetic. Just my opinion, but that title doesn't sync up with the hook, nor does it mesh with the subject/personality you're singing/telling us about.
Make sense?

Yes it does make sense the title is more Sinister than Frisky
No Place to Hide were the first words I had to the song and the rest of the lyrics came around it.
And I didn't want the song to be confused with Van Halen "Beautiful Girls" (kidding of course).

Thanks Pete,

EJB
