ricosuave57 Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 I'm wondering what the subject of the song "Hook" by Blues Traveler is. What does Popper mean by: "The hook brings you back?" Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Carl Posted November 20, 2003 Report Posted November 20, 2003 As far as I can tell, that song is a commentary on how people will like the tune to a song without actually listening to the words - "It doesn't matter what I say, as long as I sing with inflection." When he sings "The Hook brings you back," he is actually singing the hook of the song. It must get frustrating for a musician to write all these heartfelt lyrics only to have most people ignore them. As Kurt Cobain said - "He's the one who likes all our pretty songs... but he knows not what it means."
