The Devil's Music

Little Demon by Screamin' Jay Hawkins

I'm proud to share my birthday with Screamin' Jay Hawkins (18th July, in case you're wondering). He epitomises the wildness I wish I had in me and the strangeness that I do! It's anyone's guess what he's singing about here, but a "pretty little demon... with fire in his eyes" has something to do with it. This song was released on a single in 1956 alongside Hawkins' legendary I Put A Spell On You.
