@FCGNproductions Thanks much! It was a lot of fun to sing the bass :)

[mmmben]

Awesome! Do you have a video of you playing this bass arco?

[JuKeBox661]

Unfortunately, this bass can't be bowed, it's too flat. On the other hand, I'm a really amateur, I even wouldn't call me a bass player (although I'd love to be).

[DF8VD]

Spitzenmässig! Gefällt mir richtig gut..

[Andy17]

this is just fantastic! You don't have the fingering/tabs for the ukulele? Im pretty new with my little uke but i would love to sing and play this song!

[JuKeBox661]

@Andy17 I sent you a message :)

[Andy17]

@JuKeBox661 brilliant thanks so much! :)

[TheSmallThingsLive]

Like it alot. I'm thinking of playing my bass as a duet with our singer so this was a good place to start (though I'll probably only do the vocal melody on bass as an intro then just stick to backing.

[JuKeBox661]

Thanks much! You got a good idea I guess. Would it be a punk version? :D

[astroboirap]

does he have downs syndrome?

[JuKeBox661]

@astroboirap no, "he" has 46 normal chromosomes

[JuKeBox661]

Very soulful. Love the singing bass line and the voicing. Very well done Jens.

[JuKeBox661]

Thanks Sebi, I'm glad you liked it :)

It seems it did not work in German translation.

I wanted to comment on the following thoughts.

Simple arrangement is tasteful ♪

[JuKeBox661]

@siokobe Thank you very much! This translation makes sense :)

[siokobe]

Ich spiele einfach und nicht Dekoration verletzt

[JuKeBox661]

:-) Maybe the Japanese-English google translator is better?

[jinfuuu]

Nice job....

[JuKeBox661]

Thanks, Parker! :))

[TessOh1]

Ukulele accompaniment and Bass melody.....Feelings are very fresh. The bass sound is dreamlike. Nice!

[JuKeBox661]

Yes, it's somehow different. Thanks much, Tess!

[WS64]

Sehr schön, nur der Double Bass war etwas viel, ein Single Bass hätte gereicht!

[JuKeBox661]

@WS64 Vielen Dank! Ein single Bass wäre mir aber zu langweilig, selbst in 2 Oktaven wäre es noch etwas langatmig. So ist für jeden Geschmack was dabei; single high, single high doubled, single low, octaves :)

[LokeLanify]

Eine Parodie auf den November ;-) !

Toll gemacht !

[JuKeBox661]

Danke, Annett! Für mich ist die Geschwindigkeit und Melodie schon recht herbstlich :)

[uke5417]

That base is indeed singing, Jens. Wonderful.

[JuKeBox661]

Thanks, Bruce! I enjoyed doing it that way very much.

[sockenfrank]

Sehr schön.

Freut mich :-)

[PeteyHoudini]

Very nice, Jens. I like the pensive mood (in swing).

[JuKeBox661]

Thanks, Peter. I have some bad times but uking keeps me up ;)

[floydbluethereal]

Gefällt mir sehr!



[JuKeBox661]

Danke! Ich mag diese getauschten Rollen sehr.

[russelljenkinsfearn]

Lovely version.

Uke and bass go so well together.

And your bass sings so well!

[JuKeBox661]

Thanks a lot! And be sure, the bass sings much better than I would do :-)
