Bright Spark are two guys and a girl centred on Norwich, England, playing and singing their own brand of retro Brit Pop, softcore rock, and a wide range of othe
We are primarily a working live band and one of the busiest in the area. We enjoy every sort of gig, from private functions in swish hotels to social clubs and from sweaty rock venues to ballroom dances. Our original material reflects this and we write songs and instrumentals that are also very varied in style. All three of us play and sing and we are noted for our harmony work and our instrumental ability. We are an unusual combination - the excitement of being a new and inventive band, with the sure touch that comes only from many years of experience.

Story behind the song
We think John must have met someone like this at some point - but he doesn't talk about it. Maybe he doesn't need to when he can write a song like this! We suspect she'll recognize herself if she hears it. Photo-art by Chris Gill, one of a series he did for Bright Spark
Lyrics
Killing Machine She times her moves so perfectly. She walks in so unexpectedly. She'll do you in. You'll never win. Heaven help those who are unaware, 'cos when she sees you standing there, she'll make a scene - she's a Killing Machine! Aa-ahh! Doctor, doctor! Won't you come and see? I need your help so desperately. I feel I'm going down. My head's going round and round. Oh baby! My broken heart is just a casualty. You gotta find a way to set me free. So help me overcome the damage that's been done. Oh yea-eah! This girl is such a deadly flirt, you're gonna wind up being hurt. It's too late now. That's my fate, somehow. She'll screw you up with all her lies, a girl with so many alibis, that's a part of the scene - she's a Killing Machine! Hey there, girl, give me a break, 'cos my poor heart isn't yours to take. So won't you leave me be and release your hold on me? I can't spend any more time with you and all the crazy things you do. No matter what you say, I've got to break away. © 2007 John Bartram/Bright Spark
