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

I was looking forward to where you would go with this one.Mr. Hook! The original is a song that Beatles fans and other listeners either love or hate - well I'm in the love camp, being it's one of the earlier Lennon 'screamers'.

Very intricate, almost flamenco-ish arrangement with the ukes, and a sincere vocal delivery.

I loved it.

Hope you have out the other side of that dark place Hook... I don't know the Beatles original, but to my ear this is tailor made for you, either that or you have made it so. Really heartfelt, beautifully performed and quite touching. I loved it too.

It's the backing vocal that steals the show for me. Great cover.
Hope you are well.

Once again you manage to make it sound like a Hook song and still pay tribute to the original.

Well done, and yeah I dig the vocals as well !

Brilliant version Hook, and I agree with Nick, I am loving the backing vocal. The whole thing has a wonderful Hookiness about it and is a great listen. Hope you feeling ok now.

I've always liked this song a fair bit from the album. Great job on the vocal, you really made it your own.
