Track #4 from Beatles For Sale. I wanted to use as many un-rock & roll instruments as possible. I also really hate when I hear them say "sax" or "piano"and one doesn't start playing so I remedied that. drums & piano chords are garage band & sax and solo piano are thumb jam
1 nylon string guitar (stereo)
1 drums (stereo)
1 bass

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

Love the arrangement and all the instruments you used here, and it was great idea to insert them as mentioned in the lyrics. Sort of a Latin flavor to it as well, which is where Chuck's original seemed to point (lyrically, and maybe even subtly in style - at least to my ears).

Wail on!

This is a great version Hook! Your choice of instruments works perfectly here. Your vocal work here is excellent. I dig that Latin beat. Well done!

Wonderful! I love Steve's comment above, I can see Hook doing the lounge circuit in Vegas with this kind of material  :D Your vocals on this are great, so much feeling in the performance. And the arrangement is great. It's got both a great helping of cheese and a big dollop of attitude. Loved it!

Oh yeah. You really nail this. It just makes me smile. So fine :-)
