[Spoogliemooglie]

:) good job

[lukuleles]

@Spoogliemooglie thanks!

[ilovefluffysheep]

it's really nice...... i love the whistling too, it's really clear.... where'd you get the music from?

[lukuleles]

@ilovefluffysheep thanks for the nice words.

the music came from the santa cruz jam book.

do you play the uke?

[ilovefluffysheep]

no but i'm going to learn soon..... :D

[callmeoceanus]

I adore this. Makes me wish I could whistle. I'll trade you requests? Keep up all the good work.

[lukuleles]

whistle requests? did you go to a.p.s.u.? you look really familiar...what is your request? it might take me like a month to fulfill b/c of the upcoming family christmas craziness.

hopefully that didn't sound very creepy.

[callmeoceanus]

Yes, I did/am attending APSU, now for my MA in English, and I'll be finished in May. I'm betting anything by Led Zeppelin would sound pretty amazing on a Ukulele. How 'bout D'yer Mak'er? We're taking requests for Holiday tunes to cover right now, if you want to throw any ideas at us. :)

[helveticaukes]

This is great! The whistling (as mentioned by others) is amazing, and I'm super-impressed by the key change. And if all that isn't awesome enough already, the dog head popping up and down throughout totally makes this video the best!

[ken6675]

Awsome luke, wonderful song and some great playing and good singing.

[lukuleles]

thanks!

[SnowLashes]

Great job, and that is some pretty tight whistling!

[lukuleles]

thanks!

[uketreehugger]

oh this is amazing.

whistling= perfection.

[lukuleles]

when i found i could whistle as a kid i did it non-stop. i drove my parents crazy!

[UkesterBrown]

I had to sub just because of this song!!! It was Not wafeer theen..

[lukuleles]

thanks!

[searsknitter]

Nice rendition. Even though I don't think that life's a shit. I think it's more than that. I loved your whistling!

[edgrosso]

Nicely done. I gave up on trying to learn it because of whistle and the funky rhythm. It made the outrageous cost of ticked to "Spamalot" worth the price.

[lukuleles]

you have to be kidding! you are a fantastic player and i probably couldn't play 90% of the stuff you do. you have some fast fingers!

[casetone2514]

Your accent changes the whole feel of this song - weird!

I don't really like the original of this song but your version has a different vibe and makes it more enjoyable.

[lukuleles]

huh, i've never thought about my accent being different on this song than the original. i'm glad it worked for you!

[doogey9]

uke+ whistling = one of my favorite combinations!

great fun Luke!,

cheers,

todd

[lukuleles]

thanks todd! it's one of my favorite songs to sing when i'm feeling down.

[snowleopard772]

I love it :)

[lukuleles]

i'm glad you did!

[Sheepstar15]

Ha ha excellent stuff.  Fantastic. Cheered me right up :)

5*****

[lukuleles]

oh, that made my day that it made someone cheer up! thank you for that!

[keonepax]

Great song for uke! Well-done, Luke! Nice whistling, too!

[lukuleles]

[kennymelodica]

[jmmquah]

Whistling along with you!

[lukuleles]

thanks!

[ukeninja1]

haha, nice one

[lukuleles]

thank you ninja.

[DonfromMT]

Idle wrote such great songs--searingly funny, but wonderfully musical. Enjoyable cover, Luke!

[lukuleles]

i really need to look up more songs by him as i'm sure they are genius!

[deach69]

Sweet singing, whistling and playing. Love your uke too.

[lukuleles]

thanks deach! i love my uke too! i've never played an uke with a better neck.

[worschd21]

cool one!

a classic, indeed!

[lukuleles]

thanks!

[russbuss415]

nicely done! nice dog cameo at the end.

[lukuleles]

you sir actually made it to the end of the video! congratulations, as i believe you are the only one!

[russbuss415]

it's funny because my dog always has that look on his face when i'm recording. that stoic puppy stare.

[DonfromMT]

Actually, I enjoyed myself all the way to the end, too. Noticed Clover was trying to get out the door part way through, but I didn't want to mention it!

[lukuleles]

hee hee! yeah, the dogs really don't like my music making too much.
