New Song Sunday 5: HOTTER THAN A CHILI PEPPER

Welcome to the fifth week of New Song Sunday! :)

Here's a batch of fresh new songs created this past week, based on the prompt
HOTTER THAN A CHILI PEPPER:

Hotter Than Hell
"An attempt to write something I can play with my band, Keystone - we play quite a bit of classic rock like AC/DC, so this is my stab at that - fortunately the singer is much better at that style than me."
~ Little Eden: "Obviously NOT a heavy rock vocalist!"

Hotter Than Heat
"Another unfinished tune, but it's a slinky one!"
Feanne: "I like slinky sounds and vintage vibrations."
