[Ukuleleric]

[ihearthiphop2]

@Ukuleleric I really don't know all that much about him, he was my great-great-grandmother's first husband, and they divorced because he hit her, so we don't have all that many pictures of him or information, but if I find out anything about him I'll be sure to inform y'all that're intrested

[coybacon251]

lol This is fantastic!

[Ukuleleric]

@coybacon251, cheers mate, take care, Eric.

[ihearthiphop2]

My great-great-grandfather was the one who originally wrote this song, but he had to sell the rights during the depression. It makes me smile when I listen to it. :)

[Ukuleleric]

Hello ihearthiphop2, thanks for posting. Wow, that's quite statement. Perhaps you would post more on this. Eric.

[vanillabeanbean]

@Ukuleleric @ihearthhiphop That's so interesting! I agree with Ukuleleric!

[hamlet25]

Thanks for posting that excellent video Eric - had me smiling and singing all the way thru. What an amazing voice you have. I'm old enough to remember the black and white minsterals, watched them on telly when I was a kid, whole family enjoyed them. They used to be on Sunday nights if I'm not mistaken.

Keep posting those videos - pleasure to watch an listen. Great song too - timeless.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi hamlet25, thanks so much for your lovely comment. I was never in the TV B&W. They had one London company and three touring versions, it was that BIG!!. I was in one of the touring versions. Cheers, Eric.

[hamlet25]

[Ukuleleric]

Hello again ematj, cheers chum. Best, Eric.

[phenumonia]

Obviously I meant film shorts.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi phenumonia, lol, I never noticed till you pointed it out. Thanks so much for both comments chum, take care, Eric.

[phenumonia]

Very enjoyable. It certainly does remind one of the old Brit silm shorts just before WWII

[busessuck1]

Hmm... nice as it may be, I think the original was just meant to be left as just that. even so a lot better than most song covers 4/5

[Ukuleleric]

busessuck1, hi Bazza, thanks for posting. Best, Eric.

[brcp4321]

Great posting love it, your voices blend so well , but time to get yourself a really top notch piano man Al looks like hes been on the Sherry ?? Thanks again Eric for a very enjoyable song.

[Ukuleleric]

brcp4321, hi Peter, lol, yes, he does like a little tipple. Cheers, and thanks, Eric.

[singingkid]

Al Terego, lol! Love it! Beautiful job, Eric! Bravo! 5 stars!!! :))

[Ukuleleric]

singingkid, hey Greg, thank you so much. When are we going to get some more from you, one of the best singers on YouTube. You have loads of fans on waiting in anticipation. You owe it to them! Take care my ol' mate. Eric.

Un abrazo,

Saludos!

Agustín Faggiano

[Ukuleleric]

[Bobchai]

[TheTuxedoKings]

Bravo Sir!!!

[TheTuxedoKings]

You're great!! Great harmonies. We love it!

Your Pals and Fans,

Jack and Dan

[Ukuleleric]

TheTuxedoKings, hi Jack and Dan, thanks so much guys. Your new channel is terrific and you both sound great together. Check these guys' channel out folks! All the best, Eric.

[knobstick]

Wow, Crown Topper 'almost undetectable' wigs ride again! Marvellous stuff Eric, love the slightly smug look of Al playing piano in the introduction, and you've worked hard on the period film effect, I enjoyed this one so much I played it twice in a row! Who's on next - Tommy Trinder?

[Ukuleleric]

knobstick, hello Keith, Tommy Trinder eh? 'You lucky people'. Al and I would like to extend our profoundest thanks on your comment of our latest offering. I'm not sure how Al will take your comment on his hair-piece, he thinks no-one can tell it's a wig! And I have to work with him so I'm saying nothing. Mum's the word, right? However he gets enough ribbing from our pal, another Al (Bowlly) so I guess he's got the message. All the best old chap from us at 'Ally Pally'. Eric.

[knobstick]

Yes, I heard he sings 'Rug is the Sweetest Thing' at him!

[soulacsurmer]

You sound great !!!

[Ukuleleric]

soulacsurmer, hi Claudia, thanks so much, best, Eric.

[storinge]

Another triumph!

[Ukuleleric]

Hi storinge, thank you so much. All the best, Eric.

[Jonno71]

"songs by the fireside" - did you remove the fireplace and install a radiator that is now hidden behind the curtain?. . . Only joking there my friend. Always a pleasure to view your vids. Very talented, Eric.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi Jonno71, ha, ha, cheers mate, thanks so much for nice comment and compliment. There is a video on YouTube of Bob and Alf Pearson singing 'By The Fireside'. Can't remember if I saw this first and it lodged in my subconscious. Keep well, all the best, Eric.

[keepthemusicplaying0]

Wonderful as always Eric! And don't you look dapper!! Thanks for this lovely video, five australian stars :-) Giovanna

[Ukuleleric]

keepthemusicplaying0, hi Giovanna, aw, thank you so much. Keep well, Eric.

[ukipwebmaster]

Cheering us all up in gloomy times....Thanks!

[Ukuleleric]

Hi ukipwebmaster, thanks so much, Eric.

[JazzEthics]

Great job Eric! I have an old Mary Hopkins record (I believe produced by Sir Paul) of her doing this classic tune! Also very cabaret...

[Ukuleleric]

JazzEthics, hi Lar, thanks very much mate. That Mary Hopkin one is on YouTube. My duo is based on a couple of acts that were popular in the UK in the '30's and '40's, The Western Bros and Bob and Alf Pearson. There is a vid on YouTube of Bob and Alf Pearson singing 'By The Fireside'. All the best, Eric.

[myleswilliamson]

Hi Eric, how are you keeping.

Just going to start my shift and this new onw has cheered me up. Great effect

Kind regards

Myles

[Ukuleleric]

myleswilliamson, hi Myles, I'm keeping fine, thanks, hope you are too! Thanks for comment, all the best, Eric.

[chaz23j]

Awesome Eric! Question: How do you do the split screen effect, what program do you use to edit, and Mac or Microsoft? :-)

[Ukuleleric]

chaz23j, hi Chaz, thanks mate. I use a stand-alone editing machine which has split screen as one of its standard effects. These machines are quite expensive and I bought mine some years ago when computer technology was nowhere near where it is today. Now 'movie maker' comes with Windows XP etc. Best, Eric.

[cjwaywell]

100% brilliant mate - love it.

[Ukuleleric]

cjwaywell, hi Chris, cheers mate, you're a star. Eric.

[foxtrotoscar67]

The Erics do it again! Just brilliant. Excellent harmony and the best syrup we've seen in years!

Regards as aye,

Jon and Pip.

[Ukuleleric]

foxtrotoscar67, hi Jon and Pip, p'raps I should have called myself Tate and Lyle! ho ho. Thanks so much, toodle pip, Eric.

[davidholness]

Who said Nostalgia is a thing of the past. Brilliantly done and just want to sing a long. Excellent harmony.

Take Care

David

[Ukuleleric]

davidholness, hi David, thanks so much mate, all the best, Eric.

[Alexeagle0]

brilliant, well done

=) =) =)

[Ukuleleric]

Alexeagle0, hi Alex, thank you so much, best, Eric.

[Snortandeed]

sang really well with great effects

well done

yours truley

snortandeed

[Ukuleleric]

Hi Snortandeed, many thanks, Eric.

[wolf175]

Did you actually play the piano? Your hand-movements looked very convincing. 5 stars! Wolf

[Ukuleleric]

Hello wolf175, thanks for rating. No, I can't play the piano but I know how to write for it. What you hear is a computerised backing. Best, Eric.

[rosmarinusofficialis]

PS. I also love the rug on your head, Al.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi rosmarinusofficialis, this is Eric here, I'm afraid you've hurt Al's feelings. He didn't think anyone would realise he's wearing a wig. He's very sensitive you know! Anyway, he'll get over it. Best, Eric.

[rosmarinusofficialis]

I love Al, but like you too, Eric.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi rosmarinusofficialis, thanks so much for comment. I guess it's only fair that Al should have his share of fans, and I really don't mind, I feel somehow responsible for him. All the best, Eric.

[Eddscar]

Awesome, Eric!.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi Eddscar, thanks so much, best, Eric.

[Spammyguy712]

Loved it! Way to go Eric.  Very dapper in your tails.

[Ukuleleric]

Spammyguy712, hi Dean, cheers mate, thank you. Best, Eric.

[smegaroon14]

Maybe Al Terego should get his own YouTube channel? He's very good in all the songs he does with you! ;)

But seriously, another great vid. Thanks.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi smegaroon14, oh heaven forbid! It would just go to his head and he would become unbearable. No, he's better off where he is. Cheers mate, best, Eric.

[Jonno71]

Eric, wonderful work yest again. This is why YouTube is enjoyable, your superb contributions.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi Jonno71, ooh, praise indeed, thank you so much, all the best, ERic.

[kaburto1966]

What a handsome and talented duo! Thanks so much for this lovely song. You put a big smile on my face this Saturday morning.

[Ukuleleric]

Hi kaburto1966, thanks so much for your kind comment, glad you saw the humorous side. All the best, Eric.

[22989169]

Ah Eric. Nostalgia at its best. Shades of the Western Brothers (You Cads!) if you go back that far.Thought occurs to me, you must have some wardrobe!

[Ukuleleric]

22989169, hi Ron, cheers mate. 'There's very few of us left you know'. Actually, tried to find out more about the Western Bros on the net but could find nothing. There is a vid of Bob and Alf Pearson though on YouTube. Re wardrobe, nah, I try to do everything on the cheap, mostly charity shops. This jacket was an old double-breasted one I had, now single-breasted, so adapted it for tails. Keep well, Eric.

[RickmanFan93]

This is really great, Im glad you did this one, its a classic

[Ukuleleric]

RickmanFan93, hi Molly, thank you so much. Best, Eric.

[ElTioIroh]

[ElTioIroh]

i laughted A LOT with al terego xDDD

i didnt get it the first time!

i was like "...al terego...?"

and the second time i saw the video i got it xDD

[Ukuleleric]

Hi ElTioIroh, thank you so much. Glad you saw the funny side of it, it's meant to be gentle humor. If you see any newsreels or films made in Britain, they all spoke like 'thet'. Cheers, Eric.

[solsleuteltje]

Love Is The Sweetest Thing........Love is a whole life

I'll always come back ,to see .......just you( r)...............videos

Goodbye Sir.....have a nice weekend

[bestiaccia]

Very good! Fantastic editing, as usual!

[Ukuleleric]

Hi bestiaccia, thank you, Eric.

[lovelyirene2001]

This is a new style for your vids Eric. I like it. Gives it an old 1930's Hollywood musical feel to it. Bravo! :D

[Ukuleleric]

lovelyirene2001, hi Irene, thanks so much, Eric.
