I thought the last minute of the video was a bit boring, silent blackscreen. Otherwise the song was awesome.

you never heard of Jake Shimabukuro before? he's like the fastest ukulele person ever. and he represents Hawaii, YEAH! heehee

[hirummy]

I can't believe you're capturing all the difference nuances and aspects on just 4 strings. Love it!

[wfekete]

it looks like he is just having a blast playing it too!

[bulbheadmyass]

That was an amazing performance! Absolutely fantastic.

[RnDEntertainment]

Hi, I'm the other half of RnD and your music sounds like a banjo, classical guitar, steel guitar, Rock, soul, and bluegrass with just enough classical. It was a joy to listen to and see you perform. You make me want to dream for more. Thanks.

[RnDEntertainment]

Jake, Wow! that was amazing! I loved the intensity, and also the suttle inuendos. A very well made composition all around. I can see why Janet Reno wanted it. Perfect. The video was also much better. God Bless.

[bpted]

My goodness! Now I see what my problem is. I need to get a tenor ukulele instead of a concert.

[supaman358]

THAT WAS UBERLY AWESOME!

[ChanimalCrackers]

wow. he's so fast...
