Wrote this Friday, recorded Saturday night. I got a new video camera, a cannon, vixia HFR600 and thought I'd try it out in the worst condtions. Edited with wondershare but I'm starting to think I need to spend some time learning my Adobe Premier 14, it just seems to be a bear & I might need more ram. I hope this is synched right, it was in the program but its not matching up now that I've uploaded it. This video stuff is not easy.
Just Enough Scandle
written & recorded by Hook
The moon smiles down upon me
as if it knows something that i dont
A smile saturated with a sneer
That leaves an unsettling fear

But you won't see that side
No matter how thin a disguise
Just enough intrigue make you feel alive
And just enough scandle to die

And the moon winks at me
in that way that it should not
It empty and cold, desolate yet bold
It holds the rope and ties the knot

Why does it burn inside
do you know why
why does it burn inside
It must burn inside your soul

Because the Hook brings you back
I ain't tellin' you no lie
The hook brings you back
On that you can rely

What a soothing performance! Relaxing and beautiful!

The sound of the fire gives a nice feel to this.

Enjoyable music!

A fine song.  Atmospheric - the crackling of the campfire adds oodles and I even like the sound of the biker thrashing his Suzuki in the distance at about 1 minute in.  At least I think that is what it was - I'm hoping that it wasn't a sound effect that you spent hours adding in, otherwise you will hate me now!   ;) ;)

So was everything recorded using the new camera, or did you record the audio and then bring the two together?  I have never done any of this new fangled video stuff!

Yip - fine tune brother. Lovely and intimate performance, really enjoyed that :-)
One question though, Florida - big heavy jumper - camp fire, it can't possibly be that cold  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

This is beuitiful hook,it's very atmospheric will all the natural noise blending in,that fire just makes the whole song feel comfortable and warm,and yes the vehicle zooming away in the distance.
Your lyrics as well pour out like someone telling a story by the campfire.
Excellent.

Wonderful lyrics on this hook. Minimalism at it's best.    Willie
