Well, I approached this with some trepidation. This is one of my favourite Greeny songs and I have had the privilege of seeing it performed live. But I needn't have worried! This is a superb version, that steel guitar is a a touch of genius and really adds such a lovely feel to this great song. The dynamics you create are great, I love the way you bring the instruments in but then pull everything back in the middle part. Your vocal interpretation is superb, and the video is so infectious. Your performance is so joyful it made me smile all the way through.

A wonderful interpretation of a wonderful song. Brilliant work Hook!

Oh wow! 

A superb arrangement and wonderful delivery. I love this instrumentation, the trombone always pushes my buttons but with the uke and that delicious guitar break, well, it's incredible, it made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.

Marvellous, marvellous stuff. I love it.

What a tune. Hook you have come up with the goods as always. 100% commitment in the performance and the vocal. You couldn't have put any more effort or feeling in. Magnificent song, magnificent performance... loved it.

I used to have the original of this in a Greeny playlist on my phone, love the song.  And you've done - as usual - a unique and cool - and uke infused - take on it.  Cool video too!

Wow, very nice job putting this together!   A pleasing palette of sounds and a well managed performance. The slowly ramped-up arrangement draws you in and the video really helps sell the whole thing.  I certainly remember this classic Greeny song from the old days and you have treated it most respectfully.

These days I merely dabble at being old and wise.
But I swear, I used to absolutely excel at being young and stupid.

Just stunning job on the video. So well performed both by musically and visually. Great song, too. Tim can't write bad song.

I love this place!
