"I Never Expected This" a Hook original (explicit language)

[Hook]

Been very unmotivated over the last few day, hoping to change that...maybe...

1 live uke/vocal(stereo)
1 drums (new kit) stereo
1 rhythm uke-clean (mono)
1 bass (mono)
1 lead/distorted uke(stereo)

I Never Expected This

written & performed by Hook

I couldn't see clearly in the darkness
Shadows and waves and winds that Howl
I couldn't hear much further than I could reach
I never expected this


And now it's time to sort through the muck
  and decide if we truly give a fuck

I couldn't see past the anger in my eyes
shadows & waves and winds & howl
I couldn't hear over the din of disappointment
I never expected this

Chorus

To be or not to be
I think I always am
To care or not to care
I'm not always sure where to begin

I couldn't see through this shroud of passive aggressiveness
Shadows and waves and winds that Howl
I couldn't hear over your condescension
I never expected this

chorus

Love your "(almost) all played with an uke" songs 

Vocals are impressive...

Love the chord progression

With your song, you motive me to play music as you do now!

That repeating distorted line is pretty damn catchy up there over the nice acoustic uke track. And your delivery of the NSFW line was excellent. Just an off hand comment that drives home the point pretty damn well.

[Flash Harry]

Unmotivated, This kicks ass.

and F*$k on

Yeh hook ,lovely guitar runs and electric lead also sounds fab.
I've said this before and I'll say it again....you really are one talented dude .

[The Gobi Desert Canoe Club]

If I had to give marks for consistently producing listenable songs I think I would have to put you at the top of the list.  Another gem.  Willie

Damn, what a catchy tune, Hook. Your lead uke sounds like an electric guitar to my ears - very nice playing! Nice work on the drums, too…which kit is this? Vocals sound very open, and stand out well in the mix.

Top shelf work, my friend.

[Nelson]

The consignment performer and such a wonderfully creative artist.

The new kit sounds righteous, my man, as does the lead/distorted uke.

Keep Rockin
