@Themanwhocameback2 Like you, I thought the "hoaxer" in the lyrics was John Lennon. But he mentions religion, which Lennon didn't preach. I'm thinking now he was referring to Meher Baba. Carly Simon's song "Haven't Got Time For The Pain" was about Meher Baba. Her song "Anticipation" was about anticipating a date with Cat Stevens. ...So...is "The Hurt" about Carly Simon? She also wrote a song titled "Hurt". Is that her reply song? ...Interesting.

I just know realized it was John Lennon he was referring to.

Look at the passion, look at his body language , he is sharing deep truth as he sees it, this is art , this story telling this is epic humanity being proffered to us. Will we listen, will we learn ..up to you . But I now know wha he means - after so many years his journey has made sense to me , through true growth. hE IS STILL GROWING OF COURSE AND HIS LATEST MUSIC CONTINUES THE NARRATIVE THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST HONEST ,LOVING AND GENUINE GUYS IN THE BUSINESS.
Now a reprise tour please.

This was a really brave departure from the acceptable formats that dominated at the time, he pushed the style and the depth of lyrics, he was mildly controversial and confrontational when everyone was being all Rajneeshi and orange, he totally turned on a sixpence after Tea for and the Teaser , surprised his audience and his record label and went on to make what for me is definitely a fantastic album.
