I started this one last Tuesday and finished it up yesterday & threw a lot at it. All ukes went through the line 6 pocket pod & used my phone a bit . All done in the car onto the 008.

Shaky Ground
written & performed by Hook
Look at me look at me here I am
show me some of your attention
I am here I am in need won't you please
show me some of your attention

We are on shaky ground

Look around look at the ground underneath our feet is not stable
More than site it's the sounds listen to the earth if you are able

We are on shaky ground

Look inside deep inside
Past the camouflage used to hide
Reflections of some thin facade
This shaky ground seems odd

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

Great lyrics. Love your vocal phrasing. What did you mean by square phasing? Is it something with a square waveform?

I will be coming back to this one later today.

   All that I need
Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later
When I'm gone

I love what you make from simple ingredients. You have put some time into this though. It's got the Hook style and feel, but with a breadth that you don't normally hear in a classic Hook. Surely a product of the time you have spent. Well worth it too. 'Produced it up a bit', given it the works more like!

I love it.

Square Phaser. I need one of those to fight off the aliens.

Brother this is fantastic - wow, everything about this is so good. Fabulous haunting sounds, a perfect vocal delivery and great lyrics. Really great brother, really great - you knocked this one out of the park, and possibly the state :-)
