Bless you for dumping all that Cordy/Connor crap.  It was just unbearable.  Good solid beginning.  It might be stronger if you have Spike look through his own clothes to find a wallet or some id.  Does it matter if he finds out who the woman was?  Also, I wouldn't use Spike's name in the first part.  We all know who he is, but he doesn't.  Also, you might trim the song down to a few pertinent lines.  Loved the Angel blackmail.  His singing is beyond scary.  Looking forward to more.

Loved the beginning.  I can't believe you're not getting lots of reviews.  But then the site seems kind of quiet - I guess everyone is holiday shopping or something.
