Fastest Uke Player From The South...

[TrappedInABikini]

why is he using a pick?

[atiuhiki]

All of you haters are stupid and ignorant.....This is my nephew from Auckland NZ, he is in a Cook Island string Band called 2pous fynist if you need proof just look up 'The Rage 2poufynist' on you tube.....The video isn't sped up it was taken on a phone, hello before high resolution video phones.........Get your facts straight, and don't be jealous because you can't do it........

[Maueeboi]

Tahitian ukulele! Awesome playing!!!!!

[atiushell]

ya haters...its him playing...its the Ukelele...thats normal in the South Pacific and New Zealand communities to hear that in someones garage getting played by someones family member and at that rate...not me...I jam the spoons...okay I cant actually back up the spoons part...but none the less well done brother..Kia Manuia

[ArchieCGM]

his body is a bit jerky, a little too jerky. oh no wait is that the sound of light static I can hear which is an obvious giveaway it is fake. Of course not.

[bighitkiwi]

@tuaratini,um check out hawkes bay uke fest 2010 on youtube Ernz Wichman,i try and get him to upload a better vid too.he just mucking around on his vid but i sure he do a fast one if i ask him.

[hitsu98]

also that instrument looks like cardboard from the front ( yeah, i see the strings..)

[RandomYuhTube]

ITS A UKE!

HE'S NOT GOING THAT FAST

(using some kind of speed thingy)

& my uncle can play fasterr than that.

no wait my GRANDAD can play FASTERR than that!

^^TRUE FACTS^^ lmfao

[mexicanindisguise]

dude its just sped up rly fast

[FadeSolo]

Is that Tahitian ukulele?

[balluduku]

@FadeSolo Yep

[Leimana]

Not bad...

[SilentOne46]

Doesn't look too much of a Uke, looks more like a screwed up guitar pick lulz ..

Not to mention it sounds like a banjo too

[atunick14]

fuckin hilarrrrrrrioousssssss

[altohippiegabber]

he makes the ukulele sound cool! Tiny Tim on speed :-)

[masterpotion]

ฟังไม่รูเรื่อง มันกด เร่งไปข้างหน้ารึเปล่า

[Joint00786]

shit.only fuckin shit,worst player.

[detinUretsehcnaM]

sounds like an old clip of one of those wasted piano players at saloons back in the old west sped up really fast, is that what it's supposed to be?

[Megadeth256]

its fast forwarded if u didnt notice..... its distorteded

[senbonsakura1]

who the hell plays a tahition banjo with a guitar strap? why dont you try holding it with your arm like you should and then try strumming that fast!

[polystarblazer]

See how traditional this song is in the island, at least in tahiti, and possibly all ove rht e other island like ythis guy on this other link of the same song ( 2POUZ FYNIST LEAD UKE PLAYER

I guesss it's no question, the girls will sit out on this one , just too fast to dance to it and wait for a slower tamure!

[polystarblazer]

That song is played all over the island, even on electric guitars, that's very doable, i've seen it done nmany times!

[Shit2223]

Of corse hes the fastest who in gods name would bother learning that

[ThePickledgamer]

i feel sorry for his cock ROFLMAO

[superdarkhypersonic1]

nice stringless ukulele fag

[nintendoandsegafan1]

@superdarkhypersonic1 If you look closely it has strings dumbass.

[nintendoandsegafan1]

@superdarkhypersonic1 look blow his hand and then tell me if I'm blind.

[rishcify]

@superdarkhypersonic1 this is because it's a mandolin, not a uke. it has 8 strings set out like this || || || ||

rather strange instruments,

also the strings are the same colour as the wood used to make the madolin and in that light...

but yeah @nintendoandsegafan is right.

dickhead.

[mrmarite99]

FAKE what a idiot he just sped it up!

[finepoint6]

sped the vid dude look at his fukkin arm

[tdub694201]

[JMES101]

[Hubasaki1]

[foxrider1554]

[iL0vebratsz]

omg , haters , lols hes prolly fully kuki ? so dont hate , like our island is very talented , so yeah if you have no love , then this is not a place for you :)

[steviefanwonder]

just a fake. look at the left hand thats unnatural

[Ecka0007]

@steviefanwonder Your wrong. It's all natural. People of the Cook Islands, South Pacific Tropics play the ukelele naturally fast. It's their culture. The Cook Islanders can strum with a fast or slow natural rythym. No fakes or graphics. Just all natural. Why don't you book yourself a holiday to the cook islands. Beautiful natural girls. Deep blue warm sea's and sea creatures of the deep and the sound of the strumming ukelele will blow your mind away. I'm sure you will not be dissapointed.

[steviefanwonder]

@Ecka0007 if it is really no fake than i have to apologize but the left hand really looks unnatural. but i will think about it ;)

[PuiaAnua]

Tamure hard!  Nice!

[mausisebess]

[maukeandiva01]

[ninjameswrath]

If you think this was sped up your retarted and blind. You can tell it wasn't. Yall just jealous.

[imstoned6]

@ninjameswrath

i think you might be the one thats "retarted". Firstly because you can't even spell retarded, and secondly because it's so painfully obvious that this video is sped up. Look at this guys wrist while he's strumming, it's most definitely sped up.

[no1more2user3names4]

Awesome~ Though I don't know about abbreviating ukulele as "uke"...

[MikeDuhaime]

lots of people do that haha

[chiffmonkey]

What would you prefer? Uku?

[thealexg93]

lmao wtfffff thats CRAZY. it sounds like something from like a super old black and white mario game

[GilbeyMan]

[4eYeRaKzZz]

Hey manuel Hows the kaponga hehehehehe

na your good bro very gud

see you around g say hi mum and dad ok..... l8z

[bolochopsuey]

Man all u haters get off! The kid playing says hes the fastest in the south, south auckland, not the damn world!! Good on him for showing his talent! Crazy gstring or that jake dude everyone keeps bragging about, have their own thing going on, let this kid do his thing. If he plays his uke fast and speedy, so be it. Thats how we raro's love it!! There aint rules or regulations on how the uke should be played! Keep playing my bro, sounds awesome! The rest of you, strum on ur balls!

[otterknex]

yea, very .... convinsing ... any way playing ukulele fast isnt what its for, its if you injoy it and it makes you and others feel good , that sempt emotionless and pointless to me , not bad playing though even if i dont belive you, want to get peoples trust , put a clock on the cam so we can see time going normal speed

[lapatoa]

haha sped up? dang, u realy aint seen any uke players then huh...thats how its played idiots haha get out more...souf aux swaaahhttt!!..

[TheAinokeatoo]

You're kidding right? Click my name before you say i've never seen any uke players. Like I said look up Shimabukuro and Crazy G he goes faster than this sped up video and his fretting fingers do not move like that, they don't move like that because his videos aren't sped up.

[lapatoa]

Watch his other videos u dikhead!! how do u speed that up huh??hahahahaha south in ya mouth boi..

[TheAinokeatoo]

Yeah? You mean this only video that he has up? Stupid ass.

[lapatoa]

haha u really that thick huh?? computer illiterate too?? type in 2pouz fynist fukhead haha wata dumbcunt

[imalwayswatchingu00]

Woah, that sounds so awesomely awesome!

Does anyone know where I can buy, listen to music like this?

I love it, any musicians?

I'm interested!

[tjwakaa]

its not sped up, look closely at the beginning warm up an the end where he lifts the kneck. hes just that fast

[TheAinokeatoo]

This is sped up, it doesn't matter what Ukulele it is the pitch does not change int eh same way speeding up a video makes it change. Not to mention the way his fretting fingers moved, there is such a thing as "To fast" the speed at which his fingers move and how static they look, is something only an editor would be able to point out.If you look at Jake Shimabukuro's gently weeps video when he starts the faster section of the song you can tell it's not sped up by his fret hand, or Crazy G.

[pineappleaexpress]

...holy balls

[OtaraCaranalE]

dont hate yall! south got it on lock!! chur cuz

[itzSEEJAyFOOLs]

I don't feel ukulele needs speed, I feel like its about the soul you put into it, but this is coo, shred it up brah.

[sicosneed]

ur just fast forwarding it

[Nalu96762]

thats how its supposed to be played

[AdeliaGabyashi]

speed up! >=] but that sounds cool

[THEHIPPO666]

SHRED THAT UKE MY FRIEND!

[Pikapal1632]

I am almost definite that this is sped up.

[iSergbeast]

someone jacks it way to much haha this is pretty cool

[MrMrkane]

ukulele isnt about playing fast, but still its quite cool

[shantzV]

bro u better shut up or i will make ur ears bleed. AND U R AWFUL u ugly sound

[shantzV]

hey u all better shut up because i think u all can't play and he is really fast and he didn't use a speed up or something. YEA it is called talent which u all don't have.

[ironpirites]

He can't help it. Alvin the chipmunk taught him to play.

[Piribunz]

hey who cares man...at least it sounds good..this guy rocks..i even got a cousin the best in Rarotonga who can play faster than this..nice job.

[DanielLynn1993]

Im pretty sure it isnt fake.. but also not the 'fastest'.

Still pretty good though.

[Perske92]

ithink its speeded up!

[rayka]

lol. he is a very good Ukulele player. but it sure sounds like the Video was sped up. =)

[zyruemusic]

DITTO!!!

[DrummerBoy20412]

@rayka not to mention that his right hand is goin way to far off of the strings to come back lol

[rayka]

@DrummerBoy20412 I am so blind i can't even see the Strings. =)

[Ecka0007]

@rayka It's all natural!

[rayka]

@Ecka0007 I'm sure it is. =)

[bj616]

Nice!!!

[sirnubenegra]

wow! this was awful! that made my ears bleed. ugly uke ugly sound. they go at par.

[julianmartin10]

You schoolboy. This is a tahitian ukulele. Solid body with 8 very fine strings, hence the sound. Look up tahitian ukulele on here and there are some fantastic songs. This guy is pretty ace as he can do a rolling strum while still keeping the beat, very impressive.

[sirnubenegra]

shut up. who gives a shit. i just returned the favor. but this shit was old as fuck. peace.

[olliethehobo]

that is an awesome uke.

[cadelina101]

cooooooooooooooooooooooollllll­llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll­lllllllllll

[ivers0nfelise]

reading all this "fake" bullshit..man all you jalis bastards out there should just go to one of his shows..you make me wana gauze your eyes out and glue them to the uke so u can see wats really goin on..psyc!!

[ebebimik]

@ivers0nfelise hm xD

[Wiegieboard]

@ivers0nfelise LOL Jailbastards! That's amazing!

[ivers0nfelise]

wata hater..trust me, i went to skool with this guy and seen him play live..ds is not fake mate..take ur hate comments somewhere else..jus coz you cant play like dat..sanapapeti..lol..mad video

[CrazyEvo5]

Hahahaha - what a crack up. I havent heard that saying in a while!!

[Paatuki]

Unless you've met this guy and his family, you have absolutely NO right to say that he's faking it! I know this for a fact that he's playing for real! This family is amazing. He and his siblings do more than play the ukurere, they play a myriad of instruments from the Cooks. They will be one of the few families to take the Cook Islands music into the futue!!!

Come on people, don't be haters, appreciation is better than negative comments.

Te Atua, te aroha.

[heimana14]

All you guys who think he's faking it, he's not. I've seen him play live numerous times. Check your own eyes and get your walk on OK.

[AgZarp]

lol! that was awesome! love that Tahitian uke! :D

i guess the strap helps a bit?

i need to get one :D

[LakierosJordy]

I know there's LOADS of videos where people go "fake" and it isn't actually fake - but anyone who believes this is real needs to have their eyes checked.

Make sure you keep your eyes on the non-strumming hand (right to us) it's very obviously fast-forwarded.

[kevinkadafi]

This is awful! My uke is in the corner ashamed of what you did to his cousin pal! set it on fire and put it out of its misery!

[mzmzmzmzmzmzmz]

your fast fwding it faker

[luckystar171]

You're just jealous that you can't play like him.

It's not fast fowarded.

[vtownkid44]

i bet you jack your little dick off every day for practice

[MrFijianBiscuit]

TROLL

[semi801]

haha.. HATER...

[benjaminvkaea310]

jealousy aha

btw, this was good haha

[tEeNuIsFyNsT]

nice bro rocking that uke!!!!!

[EnuFsedd]

this is fast fowarded! i know for sure because i make my videos like this and thats what the ukulele sounds exactly like when you fast foward it! if you dont believe me, go check out my video Metro Station- Kelsey (happy remix) to be proven right!

[Sama7Boi]

TAHITIAN UKE

[myusernameinblank]

u fast forward it

[R1SICO]

The result of many jerk offz. Hahahahhaha just kidden kid, good job ;)

[AlEliuh]

hahaha xD

[malinao08]

How did that thing not catch on fire? (its made of wood, right?) Damn dude! Noice skillz, sole!

[JuniorAnitonia]

Dude you copy tha other guy farm bum!!

[angeldeeva]

the ukele is not just about lazing around in the hammock dufus its there to play as you please fast or slow dont you understand there are many fast songs in the islands where people would like to dance and not sit around and think how cool you are?? and no we dont live a life where rushing around with a latte and a suit dictates us this guy is awesome give him credit for posting it up in front of haters with nothing else better to do than bitch with no back PUNTO

[Perilous3D]

hahah owned

[glagiatorshizzark]

this is shopped. i can tell from the pixles and seeing many shops in my time

[kaxx000]

[keliane2559]

[DjinnJuggler]

[cerealkillersspoon]

i oughta steal your flippin sweet ukulele :D

[GabeFed]

its a tahitian uke

[taringa09]

Too good tht ding . Awesome stuff matey!

Go Cook Islands !

[matthewhuxley]

Aint no way thats fake! Thats real as it can be! Ive seen him perform at shows and hes an awesome performer! One thing that amazes me even more is his natural ability to sing the songs while strumming the uke so fast like the video above.. Manea bro.. Dont worry about the haters too..

[ChestyStClair]

Of course the speed is there and yes it's pretty incredible BUT doesn't it go against the purpose of playing the uke? To me the ukulele says I'm cool and mellow, here take your sit in the hamac and enjoy the breeze NOT let me have a third double-espresso I'm already late-always on the run.

[BreakfastBacon]

Sweet.

[kentonlewis]

First off the strings are fishing wire.... look at the bridge.... Second if you think hes faking check out his other vids.... he aint fake

[Interkomkomind]

am i the only one that can't see any strings ?

[Fortetennis]

awesome.... i don't think it's fake.
