What We Do

written & performed by Hook

I feel connected in a way
I'm not sure how to describe
I feel connected in a way
deeper than emotions
Stronger Than the tide

it's the music that controls
every ebb and Flow
it connects the very soul
that we all share
it can move you into tears
calm you through your fears
so crack open a couple of beers
and let's do what we do

I feel connected in a way
it's an essence that is shared
I feel connected in a way
it cuts through right to the core
it's a rhythm
it moves mountains and we can't ignore

Man, I'm so jazzed about these full band recordings you're doing. Sounds great but I'd dial back the 3rd drum mic to make it a bit more present.

So cool to hear you break out on the lead. You had me at "crack open a couple of beers."

You're a one man band Hook,
A bloody good one man band.
Another hit for me, really well done pal...

Fantastic job again, Hook!

Top class production and the Tele leads sounds so sweet!

Nice song, and I love your voice. The retro style reverb suits it nicely.

[Mach]

You have a great sound on this one Hook, I like the vocals. A very good song and arrangement.

Love the feel good style most of your music has Hook. It has a carefree style. Lovely stuff.

I thought I was prolific but I have to run to keep up with you, another gem.   Willie

Man, I wish I could do that with my voice.  Excellent vocals, as always.  Really good.

I like the wailing guitar in the background.  Good lyric too.

Well done Hook!
