[DrN212]

[hellohome]

i really like your voice!!

i wish you could do the whole song!!

[SystematicRap]

Really great, but I've been watching this forever and can't seem to find a strumming pattern that works or picking pattern that works. The one mentioned before doesn't seem right

[72monkeyx]

[MissPurelyAzn]

Is that a tenor?

[ohhsoserena]

OMS i LOVE it!!

[guyincognito84]

Thanks man!....Nice shirt btw!

[Tiaree123]

sweet

[dcg39]

how do you pick this?

[Gerpinator]

Thanks for this. I got a ukelele for X-mas and this will be the first song I'll have actually played.

[zelox991]

How did you do the picking?

Was it E,C,E,A,C?

[llx2o1]

@zelox991 first pick C and A, then C,E,A, back to E then switch chord then pick C. thats whats i think

[sappho83]

love it

[bboyyungstar]

hey thanks. i didnt really pick up at first but when you keep playing it, it starts to sound better.

[llx2o1]

that uke sounds beautiful. thanks for the tutor.

[blcsuperblack]

you should make a video on the picking it very cool to play on the uke

[3sixmafiaNYC]

this is a britone right?

[808Domo]

nah its a tenor

[4strings707]

thanks 808. ya lanikai tenor s-t

[dazoo99]

just wanted to say thanks for your time and help - iits such a good song for uke and you did a great job!

[4strings707]

thank you. I appreciate that

[tomsonuy]

your ukulele is good but mine is cheap one :(

[llx2o1]

that sounds good. i demand more covers for the songs that play over the radio. btw, which brand and model of uke are you using? it sounds great.

[4strings707]

i use a lanikai s-t. the strings in this video are GHS which btw are wack, but still sounded ok because its a lanikai. I use worth clears now so it sounds warmer.

i do plan on putting up more vids. I know a choke load of radio covers but haven't made any vids. mahalos

[Dweebfire]

Very nice tutorial..thanks. I'm having trouble keeping the G string from ringing during the chunk... what's the best way to mute it?

[4strings707]

when you down strum, be sure to open your hand and cover all the strings. You can get away with it sometimes but that would be the best way. Practice chunking with just your right hand, no chord. then when you get used to it, try chunking while holding a G or something. that should help.

[lahainagrown]

Eh brah, hows the picking part go?

[4strings707]

man i don't know. I just freestyled it. I guess you play the CEA string at the same time and then just go down one string at a time.  try that

[lahainagrown]

Thanks brah

[Sehxee24]

hey man. i cant see your strum patter can you just tell me what you doing? by just saying like down up down down chunk somthing like that.

[Chillax808]

howzit braddah,

i got the chords and the beat down...

but is the strumming all in a downward motion????

help ur braddah out plz???????

[4strings707]

its down and up. it starts on the one and the pattern is, down-up-chunk, down-up-chunk. Watch again and follow the strum. mahalos

[Chillax808]

so when u strum u leave the top string open right?

[ladylegends33]

hey!!!!!!! yur my cuzin my name is micaella jacildo

[genesismochi]

thanks ^^

[ultrahandz]

great tutorial! thanks!

[ichbinderhanfmann]

nice! now you need a B-part, a bridge and a chorus..i'll buy this song!

[4strings707]

you can already buy it. It's a song by wyclef. there is no b part but there is a bridge and chorus. Thanks for checkin me out. Peace

[desekids]

aye man.

can you tell me what pattern you use for strumming?

[boyfrumdaisland808]

nice tutorial but you forgot to show us the strumming?

what is it?

[4strings707]

imo, strumming is kinda hard to explain for me bcuz i just either freestyle it or i copy the actual song. I would listen to the track and play along with it and whatever you feel sounds good, play it.

[TJustice91]

what size is your uke?

[4strings707]

Tenor.

[PEKSTAH]

mad as videoo man.

helpeed me out staxx

[nieto15]

dude i finally got the picking down, i cant get enough of this vid

[nieto15]

this vid is really cool and you explained well, but i want to learn the picking if you could please explain that. mahalo

[4strings707]

aww man...i just kinda freestyled it. All i gotta say is, make it your own.

[iwrestle693]

nice.. thanks man, i play guitar and i jus  bought a new uke and been tryin to learn new things to play.

[Djmastafa]

Dude, tysm. This will help bring my grade up for my ukulele class xD

[mikekorz]

Its my wife's pristine condition with original case...

[4strings707]

dude...get it appraised. ive seen martins up to $5000.

[mikekorz]

i'd rather have a mandolin,

my wife has a martin made in the 30's how much would it be worth??

[4strings707]

i have a mandolin but i prefer the uke. i just wasn't feelin it.

whoa a martin? if its in good condition it could be worth a lot. I'd take it in and have it appraised.

[guamk95]

wat kind of uke is that?

[4strings707]

Its a lanikai s-t

[keonejq]

wat is the strum pattern

[JediJohn]

ya i cant figure it out either, but i like it a lot

[musicme11]

how much was ur uke?

[4strings707]

i overpaid for it. $180 with a case.

[findthewords]

This is pretty useful... but I was wondering how you tuned it... sorry i'm a total beginner...

[4strings707]

the tuning is GCEA

[Mexipino1408]

thanks man I just learned this in a day! It took me 10 mins to know the song and 10 mins to perfect it! Nice tutorial!

[4strings707]

thats all it took for me too. Its not a hard song. only 4 chords where 2 of them you barr. good job! now lets see a vid.

[cedsson]

[4strings707]

thank you!

[Hawaiianon]

lol

[akaSkittlezz]

you should make more videos with you singing too

[4strings707]

I definitely will. Just been busy with work and school. I'll try to get another one done by the end of the month so stay tuned. peace

[Hawaiianon]

lol

[ZAKing1]

ur actually way wrong on two of these chords. the first chord is an f minor you are correct but the second chord is not a c minor its a d sharp major and the third chord is not an a sharp minor or whatever u sed its a c sharp and the last chord is a g sharp major

[4strings707]

thanks for watching the vid. i was already corrected earlier. but i play it my way on da uke and it sounds fine. a lot of the same notes are there

[Hawaiianon]

ooooooo burn

[ZAKing1]

ur retarted "ooooo burn" it sounds like shit when you play the wrong chords if u think it sounds fine then u have a horrible ear for music peace

[4strings707]

we'll just have to agree to disagree then. thanks for the critique tho. i appreciate you taking time to watch my stuff. peace

[ZAKing1]

i personally wouldn't have said something like that but whoever hawaiianon is is just a retard your basically playing the relative minor chords of the right chords so yeah in the background the uke track wouldn't be that terrible but i felt i needed to tell that person off sry

[4strings707]

no worries brah. peace

[fizshish117]

i hope you win

great vid!

[brayts]

Nice. Thanks bro.

[VdeoMakeR]

that was coo

[JDEEZ750]

Is that you Raymond J.? Its James D. from Hogan..Whut up..I know a couple songs on tha uke but having trouble posting em. Your pritty good meng. Thanx for da instructional.

[aebassnoob]

hey man thanks for the help. i play it a little different on the chords with a Fm, Eb,Db,Ab. i tried both and i think i like those chords a little better but id be interested to hear what you think? and your strum pattern rocks i def. stole that. thanks for passing it on.

the picking is sweet too

cheers

[4strings707]

That actually sounds really good. A lot of the same notes are there. I think if you played on the guitar, your chords would be easier to play. I play mostly by ear and these this is how i heard it. Then I went on sheep entertainment for the chords. Yours is prolly the real way to play it. Nonetheless, I think both ways sound great.

[aebassnoob]

ok man well thanks for the response and great playing, didnt mean to bring down yours at all its good stuff. and again thanks for the strum pattern

[TropicalJuliet]

Thanks for the Tutorial! The picking sounds great..

[4strings707]

thank you!!
