while my ukelele gently weeps

[Mohovista]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for gracing us with your music.

[panconmayoo]

imposibruuuuuuuuu

[michaelx8]

this, since the launch of YouTube, has been one of my all time favourites and just sums up what Youtube is about.

people who want it in hd miss the point. it's a ukulele, it's low def. it's his talent, not the definition, this was 7 years ago

Amazing beautiful inspiring restful refreshing

[Kiriyama666]

I want to learn this anyone know where i can get the tab?

[wowjunky1000]

[gordomons]

[aerobell513]

[LeBron6isking]

When skill and beauty meet <3

[PITYLIGHTY]

You are the Paco de Lucia of UKELELE. Amazing

[Mohovista]

[Nawyria]

At 0:20 I honestly thought he was going to play the Game of Thrones intro song.

[haz848]

[Aboscout]

Hell yeah. You rock. My little uke is jealous.

[TheBensont123]

this guy sucks.

[PabloSuperMagno]

@TheBensont123

and you sucks cocks

[XShadowXHunter]

@TheBensont123 HEY WHY DONT U SHUT THE FUCK UP AND MAKING A FUCKING VIDEO SHOWING YOUR SKILL ON A UKULELE AND PROVE ME WRONG

[TheBensont123]

@XShadowXHunter dude. i could fucking smother this guy in fifteen seconds. you're such an idiot for thinking this is skill bro.

[owensamrob]

@TheBensont123 Well what is this if it isnt skill? I want to see a video of you "fucking smother this guy in 15 seconds". Kthxbai

[LadyCleoB]

Fabulous!  I don't know if it 's so good that I want to play again, or it's so good that I don't see the point of even re-tuning my ukelele.

Great stuff!

[lampshade1024]

:-o

[TreadstoneClassified]

u sure it's GENTLY weeping???

[TheTiaLadret]

beautiful <3

[groverws]

Incredible! Bravo! Mind-blowing!

When I noticed the 51 dislikes, my stomach turned. Aside from how miserable you'd have to be to dislike this, why does that feature even exist? The internet needs a little more "if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all."

[HavainHunithtylar]

That was the most amazing experience...i was moved beyond imagining...you have an awesome gift...thankyou, thankyou

[inmepete]

Is this Jake Shimabukuro?

[nikkimouse85]

@inmepete yes, I believe he is.

[inmepete]

@nikkimouse85 Just got a Ukelele for my birthday! Wonder what tuning he's using... Ukelele standard tuning is weird I think he's using something more standard

[CommeLucie]

Holy freakin crap. Now I wanna play the uke. You are beyond amazing!

[JCCMAR]

Dude you´re amazing i i reverence you you gonna burn taht ukelele

[LukithM]

I am in awe

[uyseraposible]

I have to say if you have composed that melody. Please, send me a message.

[uyseraposible]

mmmh...I think I love you

[Axerty1234]

What boggles my god damn mind is when there are even a few dislikes on videos like this. This is amazing.

[Marky1888]

Fake.

[SpacinCowboy]

@Marky1888 shut up dude talent isn't immediately fake...

[Bloodarch]

@Marky1888

[MsSickCreation]

[maknyp]

great sound! What kind of uke is it?

[braiana1015]

i knew somebody from my wp who plays ukelele and i was so amazed...n wished i could play ukelele...think i wanna buy one...said got it for 200 bucks? i wnna learn to play ukelele too! ur fantastic!!!

[Pudabudigada]

@braiana1015 I bought an Ukelele today for £20, that's probably ~$30-5 your side, so there's no need to spend a couple of hundred dollars. It's got a pretty good sound too, especially given what I paid for it, it's Maholo, see if your local music shop has them, or failing that, try E bay.

[BrainRotMenacer]

The ukulele weeps for the 49 poor souls who dislike this video.

[erickgrobredox]
