"Heart Can't Stand The Pace" a Hook original for HeartbreakFest

[Hook]

Had an hour in the car today so I wrote and recorded this.
1 uke/vocal(stereo)
2 lead ukes

Heart Can't Stand The Pace

written & performed by Hook

it all falls apart
And i lose control
Another scar
has been etched on my soul

It seems that I'm destined to carry this weight
Lost in confusion, fear, anger and hate
If I bend any more I'm certain to break
My heart just can't stand this paces

where ever i am
& wherever i go
I'm the square peg
that won't fit in the hole

[Groundy]

Another hit for me Hook.......
well done.......

I must say that you utilize each available moments nicely . Fine job on this too!!

As I sit here at work at lunch, it feels like the last 3 weeks never happened - appart from the jet lag, and feeling hungry at all the wrong times :-) Still I have a great Hook song to capture me and enthral me - super song with great lyrics brother.

 Wee jazzy heartbreaker, second melody uke sounds so like a trumpet, or is that me imagining  sounds again 

[Blooby]

I'm loving that unexpected third chord in the progression. And cool little single-note lines that come in and out. I'm with Redler. You really know how to exploit an opportunity.

On another note, I have a whole new appreciation for your rhythmic sense after sitting down with you.

I need to go and stare off into space for a while now.

I envy anyone who can come up with something as spontaneous as this - all my tunes are days (sometimes weeks) in the making. Great song!

That's great, Hook.  I wish I could write and record something like this in an hour.

Come to think of it, I wouldn't be too upset if it took a bit longer than that....

Brilliant.

[Farrell Jackson]

Great use of an hour Hook! Man you write and record them fast. I dig the lead Uke breaks, the chords, and the melody.
