Long Live The Queen - Frank Turner (Baritone Ukulele Cover)

[MeineFreiheit]

i have no idea about playing guitar and stuff like that. but i love frank turner, and also, i like your cover very much

[amelioooo]

@MeineFreiheit Thank you, thanks for watching. Also, it's a ukulele, not a guitar :)

[GreenDiesal]

So many EXCUSES!!!! oh and what sidewindermack said.... you could also try wedgeing a thin matchstick under the strings by the nut or some tissue. Its mainly just raising the strings.

[TheSarge21]

Quite possibly the WORST cover I have ever heard....

[amelioooo]

@TheSarge21 Great, tell someone who cares.

[fenhen]

Not bad at all. Good to see that Mr Turner is getting some fans over in the states as well!

PS: You're cute. :p

[sidewindermack]

The slots on the nut may be worn down too deep and are causing the strings to buzz on the frets. The fix is to replace the nut and don't cut the slots too deep and that will raise the action up. I hope this helps you. Please keep the videos coming!!

[amelioooo]

@MrPinkFloydz Yeah, I always have trouble with that.

[amelioooo]

@MeggieO9 Ha sorry for scaring you...thanks for watching!

[BenjaminJDickson]

dia-fucking-bolical.

[Androg]

There is a reason British music is the best in the world, and it's because americans don't sing it!

[amelioooo]

@Androg Apologies.

[Androg]

@amelioooo I feel guilty for being a wanker now, ah well.

[raywatkins1]

Sicktings! x

[amelioooo]

@raywatkins1 Thanks!!

[thehankster]

Well done, very good stuff :)

[amelioooo]

Thanks very much!

[bouncingbongo]

beautiful!! =D

[amelioooo]

Thanks very much

[theoneandonlymememe]

Wow, you've definitely putted some soul in this cover. Touched by it, I just googled a bit for a buzzing sound solution and found some info that might help you. Check your private messages.

Long live AMELIOOO! O!

[amelioooo]

Lol thanks very much!!

[theoneandonlymememe]

Heh, you're welcome! I realized later that my help was "a bit too late" as this vid was uploaded in August, which made me feel quite stupid that I didn't think of that at first. Were my links any helpful at all? :P Just say it how it is, I completely understand that it's very possible that they weren't!

Anyway, Long Live The Queen is stuck in my head since then. No shit, it just doesn't go away and makes me feel blue for two or three days already. Thanks for that!

[amelioooo]

Haha no worries. I haven't bothered fixing it yet so could still be helpful!

Haha I'm sorry it made you feel blue. I had a hard time covering the song cuz every time I'd try to sing it I'd cry haha

[Niberial]

good cover =) ukulele ftw =D

[CANNIBALEX]

are you meant to be hardcore dancing in the intro?

[amelioooo]

I don't know...I'm just dancing.

[IHaveAMask]

LMFAO.

This is hilarious.

[amelioooo]

Thanks.

[SkuliiCandi09]

I love your cover =) Frank is such an awesome guy! i noticed this in Frank's favorites n i thought i'd check it out. Its an awesome cover Keep it up :D

[amelioooo]

Thanks very much! So glad you liked it!

[unknownorigin84]

[amelioooo]

Umm thanks..?

[thedarkmagodeoz]

[V333P]

i found this link on Franks youtube and i think this is just great! :)

its always good to know that other people like good English music overseas.

[amelioooo]

Thanks! I'm so glad you enjoy it!

[Ribitibiton]

You may have just saved me from terrible things that will remain unnamed.

I love Frank Turner, and, the ending made my life just now.

Thank ya. :)

[amelioooo]

Glad I could help :)

Thanks for watching!

[FDR77]

damn the spoiling of this song is the A´s...

the DANCE is F.U.B.A.R with the american dialect...otherwise a sweeet song, nice heart in it

[amelioooo]

Sorry I'm American and can't pretend to be British??

[FDR77]

Dident want you to be brittish? just saying its better with the english dialect...

But you did it good on the ukelele and had nice heart in it.

[amelioooo]

Thanks. Sorry, I misread your comment.

[thepriceofreality]

good cover! you're really really pretty cool... and i mean that both sarcastically and truthfully!

seriously though, very good cover - i'm sure frank'd be pleased with this :)

[amelioooo]

Thank you! (if you look through the comments, you'll see that he did in fact comment and seemed pleased :))

[drag0n30]

hey, nice job! I'm trying to learn this on the guitar but can't get the chorus strumming. Can you give me some help? perhaps a slower section of just the chorus strumming?

[amelioooo]

Thank you!!

Sure, I'll do it as soon as I can!

[drag0n30]

Thanks, that would be ace if you can. Re your fret buzz, I'm a new player but have picked up a couple of tips. with a guitar you can try thicker gauge strings, these can help but may make holding chords harder. It may be that you just need fresh strings. The other options include raising the saddle, on some guitars this can be pulled out when the strings are off and replaced, or packed out from underneath. The same might be possible with the nut at the head end. Both of those might be worn.

[amelioooo]

Thanks for the help! I'll try to post the vid soon!

[amelioooo]

Hey I just posted the strumming tutorial. Let me know if it helped!

[drag0n30]

Hello,

That was spot on thanks, helped loads!

Thanks again.

Lee

[georgekingmusic]

Anyone seen Daria?

[amelioooo]

???

[EurotrashDrock]

awesome job

[amelioooo]

Thanks!

[YourOwnDisasters]

one of my favorite songs.

and your cover was pretty good.

[amelioooo]

Thank you!

[rachelc364]

no tooley glasses in next video! mmmmkay?

[amelioooo]

RAH! Fine!

[FalseHeroic]

i listened to this song and i liked it a lot i did my little googling and listen to the original and it is not as good as this. you did amazing. do you come up with your own chords?

[amelioooo]

Thank you so much! You just made my day <3

I didn't for this song but when I can't find the chords online (or for piano covers) I figure them out by ear.

Thanks for watching!

[FalseHeroic]

Oh your welcome. haha

where do you find your chords? I tried googling these chords and didnt come up with anything.

[amelioooo]

I find most of mine on ultimate-guitar . com

[graceclarke1234]

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

FRANK IS MEGA. And he plays his on guitar, which already makes it INFINITLEY better.

I am somewhat disgusted and appaled by this comment. oh man.

[amelioooo]

I am not trying to be better than Frank Turner, but I like the song and tried to do my best. I do not think I am in any way better than Frank Turner, but it was nice of FalseHeroic to say nonetheless. If you'd like to say something negative, please don't do it in my comments.

[BinaryBethan]

Maybe a cover of 'Willie McBride/The Green Fields of France' by Eric Bogle? It's depressing, but I think it's really good ...

[amelioooo]

Excellent.

I'll work on it :)

[BinaryBethan]

Aww really?

[amelioooo]

I will attempt, yes. No promises, but I'll do my best!

[JustAVeronicaFan]

AWESOMEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i didn't know you were the metal type!

well anyway it's greattt :D

[amelioooo]

Haha thanks, Brenda. Means a lot coming from you...PS did you read the comment below yours?!

[frankturner]

I... wow. Awesome.

[amelioooo]

Thank you!!!!! :):):)

[awoller]

The ending of this was just aboutthe best thing ever! I laughed soo hard!

p.s. new Bones tonight! (I figure that's not really news, but still exciting eh?)

[amelioooo]

Haha thanks

I can't watch it until tomorrow though cuz I just got home and it's already mostly over :(

[katiecanflyyy]

This cover was so good! I LOVE Frank turner! this was great :)

& i like the ending.

[amelioooo]

Haha thanks!

I'm glad you liked it!

[Flangel66]

Awesome cover! You have a really nice voice.

Bill's right (although he can't spell uke! Tcha!). It's fret buzz, and can be reaaally annoying. I'm pretty sure it's just a quick job for someone who knows what they're doing, though. :]

[amelioooo]

Thank you!!!!

[crimsong19]

Great cover! Loved the ending bit!

[amelioooo]

Thanks!

[JohnnyFoxDarko]

Miss you, Metal.

[0n3m4n4rm33]

you are a joy...

[amelioooo]

Thank you!

[sammyenn]

I love this song.

Come visit me this weekend, and I'll find out what's wrong with it.

[amelioooo]

I'm in NY this weekend

[MarinersRevenge1]

yeah, your sister seems to be hiding you from me :-(

good job. your voice sounds great

[amelioooo]

She's just really busy and stressed right now.

Thanks for watching!

[doctornoise]

if you're having buzzing issues I imagine your Euk is the same as any acoustic guitar which means the intonation is off and the neck needs adjusting because the strings are too close to the frets. you'd be best getting a professional or a shop to fix it. Good job by the way :)

[amelioooo]

Ahhhh shitttt...that takes time, money, and effort...DAMN IT!

Thanks for your help!
