David Bowie - 'Space Oddity' arranged for Ukulele

[jennaknorr]

This was really good, man! Such a nice arrangement for uke. :)

[julesmail67]

@jennaknorr Thanks, that's really kind. Still think i played it too fast...tempo - not my strong point!! :o)

[raggyragsdale]

The more I listen the greater this becomes. I have to learn this one. Thank you. Raggy

[julesmail67]

@raggyragsdale Thank you for the kind comment. Just the basic guitar chords with a few odd melody bits thrown in. Good luck with it and don't forget to post your version? Best wishes..

[bulletproofpunk]

This is so cool, and so fun to sing along to :D

[julesmail67]

@bulletproofpunk Thanks for that...Great song and not too hard to pick away at.Cheers for the comment

[cheeki72]

That's really pretty.

I can't wait to be able to play properly.

Ah well I'll keep practicing and watching all you talented people for inspiration : )

[julesmail67]

@cheeki72 'Pretty' well thats a new adjective for my playing!! Thank you very much! but don't do yersel down too much, keep practising and posting- its a good incentive to improve!

[cogmick]

that was so cool.!!

[julesmail67]

Cheers for that! Glad you liked it

[Lechatmimi]

good job dude :D sounds great

[julesmail67]

Hey thanks for that! After all this time I reckon its mebbe a bit rushed...time for a re-record?

[Lechatmimi]

Yay, with the voice this time dude :D

[julesmail67]

Yeah, I did DO that with the six string tenor...but its such a hard song to sing well (like only Bowie can!) but the uke sounds good...it's in the vids somewhere...!

[constantlehigh]

excellent. i'd love to learn how

[julesmail67]

No probs...pick up the guitar tab and then mess about! It's as technical as that! Thanks for the comment!

[TheUkulazy]

i had a go at it...check my channel

[julesmail67]

excellent..off to take a look!

[orlock20]

David Bowie was a conservative artist after all. This is progressive rock.

[julesmail67]

er, okay...

[thedbert21]

WOW

[julesmail67]

ta!

[scottie74]

this is the single most freakin sweet thing i have come across on youtube all the stars on the world for you dude top class !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[julesmail67]

Excellent! thanks a lot for that! It's not too hard but sounds ok I reckon?!

[spinnpet]

I played my guitar and sang along with your uke. Got a nice harmony going on the middle eighth.

Great thanks.

[julesmail67]

Well, done you! So you rushed the tempo as well then? LOL!?

See, if we were clever people we'd have done a collaboration!

Cheers for the comments though!

[timothyspear]

Sweet! are you just in standard uke tuning here?

[julesmail67]

Yep, AECG. The only thing not standard is my slightly rushed time keeping, or lack of it!!But thanks for the comment!

[pistukita]

Awesome!!! Talk about creativity...!

[julesmail67]

Oh wow! Thanks, what a great thing to say. Cheers for the comment.

[inxpicto]

class

[julesmail67]

Thanks!

[KyleYankan]

Awesome stuff dude. Do you release your tabs? I'd love to give this a go.

[julesmail67]

Thanks for that! 'release tabs' sounds dead impressive and professional! Not quite me!I got the guitar chords from some site or other then kinda finger picked my way through. That's about as technical as it gets I'm afraid!Hope it helps and cheers for the comment

[rayhypno]

Nice cover...do you do more Bowie?

[julesmail67]

I haven't yet although I am a fan!Working on some 'Jimi' at the moment!

Thanks for the comment at anyrate!

[TokyoBomb]

that was real good.i wish you sang though..

[julesmail67]

really? have you heard the singing vids?lol! Okay, I may revisit and do the singy thing. Thanks for the comment, take care!

[UkeJill]

Nice job! And here I thought I had the market cornered for Bowie on the uke.

[julesmail67]

you probably still do, but in a more professional kinda way!

But thanks for the comment!

[vakarro]

[julesmail67]
