Hook, I did my best here, completely different to your original (https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=15655.0), but this is how i was hearing it, like a kind of swing / blues type thing. I omitted some of the lyrics as i was struggling with the arrangment. Anyway, great original track Hook, thanks for leaving open - great fun doing it!!
Lyrics:
I evade, I contradict
Bob & swerve, subtle shifts
In futures face I recognize
The eyes but not the shape & size
I demean site unseen
Cast aside & deem unclean
On futures face lies a grin
Comforting yet clearly sin
We are pulled, seldom pushed
Enticed by spice
Spirits & spells, waterless wells
Deceived me not once but
Fooled me twice
I pretend & I convince
No wall of fire, just a plain fence
Futures face is hidden by
Shadows cast from fears stacked high
I demean site unseen
Cast aside & deem unclean
On futures face lies a grin
Comforting yet clearly sin
We are pulled, seldom pushed
Enticed by spice
Spirits & spells, waterless wells
Deceived me not once but
Fooled me twice

Thanks so much for listening Alex / Hook,
I am so glad you approve Hook, I have to say i loved the original it had a real unique quality to it but I wasn't sure how to approach it, i had an initial go a few weeks ago and something was happening but i still wasn't sure how to do it, but the second go i had this weekend it started to evolve into this bluesy shuffle thing. So much fun on this one. Lovin' the lyrics also by the way they are super!!

I listened to the original first and did not expect this. I really enjoyed this and agree with Nick.

Great cover of Hook's masterpiece!! Had to listen to the originla at first...
You did a bit more "rockier" version and it works!! Captivating riffs and superb vocals! Nice one!!!
