I love this.

Well done.

[Puschelruebe]

God! You "two" are briliant!

I love how you sing in two voices and make it sound so effortless.

Also, many thanks for providing us with the chords.

You're a great inspiration to Ukulele beginners like me. ;)

[chololelng]

you're so cool man!! you gotta have a tutorial for this...

oh one thing i can see a chord sticking out of you ukulele (the clown) is that a amplifier? just wonderin...

[Ukuleleric]

@chololelng, hello friend, thanks so much. Yes, I did have the uke amplified from a small amp under the camera. Take care, Eric.

@greger2045, hi, thanks so much, Eric.

[benjiboybenjiboy]

Great, wonderful, fab, trific!!!! A truly great video piece. I suspect that split screen effect takes a little more practice than one might think...

Peace n lurve

[Nytheron]

very old fashioned voice. I love it!!! the modern music world lacks the same brilliant, cheerful, seemingly effortless singing of the old days.

kudos to you good sir =]

Hi stefanspolle, cheers chum, thanks so much, best, Eric.

[TheSudeya]

so funny so good. unlimited stars****

[Ukuleleric]

Hi TheSudeya, wow, thank you so much. Take care, Eric.

[Partyburner]

This one is very nice, too.

BTW: You should add the word "multitrack" to your video title and tags for videos like this one. It's how these videos are usually called and without this keyword many people might miss your videos!

[Ukuleleric]

Partyburner, hi Patrick. Thank you. Re 'multitrack' I'm a bit of a pedant and as the vid is actually only split screen I think maybe it might be a bit misleading if I were to call it multitracked. Thanks for the suggestion though. All the best, Eric.

[Partyburner]

In doubt I would always add the keyword. Nobody would be annoyed by founding your video when searching for "multitrack", because it's still related to your video.

It would be different if you would add keywords like "Michael Jackson". Some people really do that just to increase their number of hits ...

Patrick

[Ukuleleric]

Partyburner, hi Patrick, ok, point taken, have now added your suggestion. Cheers, Eric.

[trini9259]

you are going to get famous some day! Your voice is beautiful and you are so talented! You are a star!

UG

[TheUkeygirl]

Hello, Eric,

Could you tell me what chords you are using so I can strum along? Ta

UG

x

[Ukuleleric]

Hello TheUkeygirl, it might be a bit more complicated on the Coldplay version but as I understand it has only four chords which just keep repeating. The chords I am using starting with the first one are: Bb C F Dm. There is an Am in there instead of the F at the end of the chorus. Hope that helps, best, Eric.

[yinyang44]

Hi yinyang44, thanks so much, best, Eric.

[quentin13200]

My father always told me older people were right...

I'd rather say that older people always ROCK !

I discovered your talent while I was getting bored by stupid videos, you make me smile. Your talent is real, and your presence is huge.

[clovergirl22]

Oh, what a lovely little pair of minstrels!

I really enjoyed that.

[Ukuleleric]

clovergirl22, hi Issa, 'we' thank you very much. Checked out your vids too. Excellent, lovely voice, you've got talent. Good luck with your uke too. Take care, Eric.

[anton252252]

Seriously guys!

You may be the best acuostic duo i've ever seen.

So damn tight and you're vocals are just amazing.

Keep up the good work!

Love you boys!

Make out not war!

[Ukuleleric]

Hiya anton252252, thank you so much. Actually it's guy, only me. I film myself twice and then join the to together with an effect called 'split screen'. All the best, Eric.

[anton252252]

Oh that's even cooler! =D

Then you are probably the cooleste guy right now ;)

Have a nice weekend Eric!

Best regards / Anton

[Ukuleleric]

[Raider768]

Awesome.

[Ukuleleric]

Raider768, hi Jack, cheers chum, best, Eric.

[Fingtam]

This has to be the coolest thing I've ever seen.

I tried to do something similar yesterday, but I couldn't sync the videos

[Ukuleleric]

Hi Fingtam, thanks so much for your lovely comment. Yes, it is tricky getting the to two to sync. It takes me two or three goes before I get it right. I guess the answer is to keep trying. One thing I do to help me get close, is to do a count in before I start and then watch the lips of the two. There's no sound till it's finalised. Only then do I know if they're in sync. If not, do it again until they are. Take care, Eric.

[swimmerdan12345678]

Wow awesome!

You are so cool!

Can i have the chourds to mabie do a video responce if thats okay!

Thanks dan

[Ukuleleric]

swimmerdan12345678, hi Dan, aw, thank you so much for your lovely comment. The chords for Viva La Vida are very simple and there's only basically four. I use Bb, C, F, Dm. There's an Am in there too at some point. Better yet though, there are some instructional vids on this song on YouTube that would probably be more helpful. Enjoyed your vids btw. Take care, Eric.

[mosnick]

well done!

[Ukuleleric]

Hi mosnick, thanks so much. Checked out your vids too. Excellent. Hey folks check this very talented singer/guitarist out, tremendous stuff. Cheers, Eric.

[mindofsummer]

Beautiful job Eric! I look forward to more like this! -- Mike

[Ukuleleric]

mindofsummer, hi Mike, thanks so much mate. Checked out your vid....wonderful. Hope you upload some more soon. Hey folks, check this uke entertainer's version of 'When I'm 64'. Excellent!

[bakkenikkenik]

Well done eric. Very cool

[Ukuleleric]

Hi bakkenikkenik, thank you so much, take care, Eric.
