Influenced by the local South London music scene in Brixton, she has matured her sound into something she is far more comfortable in. A strong 60s influence is also evident in the raw vocals, edgy guitar licks and varied verse progressions. Citing the likes of Patti Smith, The Stooges and The Velvet Underground in her ‘eclectic’ music taste, this girl goes a long way in capturing the essence of an era of music she adores so much. And, with her debut album set for a July 2015 release, she is just getting started.

Misty Miller Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want to learn about your other side
Cause I-I-I can't get you off of my mind
And touch me with your freezing fingertips
Yeah kiss me with your blood red lips
O-o-only gaze into your ever changing eyes
Yeah, this is my love song... for a vampire
There's no need to talk
Don't say a word
It's all too much
And it'd be absurd
All I-I-I ask is you stay the night
Protect me and make me feel safe
Yeah keep all the others away
And ho-ho-hold me very tight
Yeah, this is my love song... for a vampire
Yeah, this is my love song
Yeah, this is my love song
Yeah, this is my love song
For a vampire
In Misty Miller's song Vampire, she expresses her fascination and attraction to a vampire. She wants to learn about his other side, his thousands of lives, and she can't get him off her mind. She desires to be touched by his freezing fingertips and kissed by his blood-red lips. She finds his ever-changing eyes captivating and wants to gaze into them. Miller expresses her love for this vampire in the song, as it is her love song for him.
In the chorus, Miller asks the vampire to stay the night and protect her, and she wants him to hold her tight as she feels safe in his presence. She doesn't need him to say a word or talk since it's all too much, and it would be absurd. All she wants is for him to stay with her, keep others away, and hold her tight. She repeats that this is her love song for a vampire to emphasize her love for him.

if your uke is in tune for GCEA - verse - First thing is to hold down the A (bottom string) string, 5th fret, then alternate between the 3rd fret (C chord) and 5th fret. next chord is, 2nd fret on the C string (second string) and first fret on the E string. Then bar all of the strings on the 5th fret. okay thats the intro and verse. Chorus - chorus is all strings barred on the 7th fret, then move down to the 5th fret. If you listen to the song you can hear the changes. Hope i helped :) x
