"Crying Blood" is the debut single by singer V V Brown (also known by her writing alias Geeki). It was released on 3 November 2008 and was accompanied by a music video. The song did not chart as it was not eligible to do so. It was released as a limited release on Digital download and 7-inch vinyl. Brown wrote this song after finishing with her mean American boyfriend and returning to England. Despite its lyrical woe, the melody is upbeat. She explained to Q magazine: “That was an accident, actually. I simply wanted to give the impression, musically, that I was over him. It’s true he was terribly mean, but ultimately I’m an optimistic sort.”.[2] This song is also featured on Just Dance 2 as a downloadable song. "Crying Blood" was the opening title song to the movie Lesbian Vampire Killers starring Mathew Horne and James Corden
