how to play hallelujah by leonard cohen on the ukulele

[0olong]

@mmaplestina from the shape of the chords, it's completely standard GCEA tuning.

[tickatacker]

I love your shirt..

[chicago911susy]

Nice playing and teaching What kind of uke is that? It looks custom.

[Jimplify]

you have a lot of really great songs and you are a cool teacher but I'm wondering if you can do for us Puff The Majic Dragon

[ambitrona]

Hey everybody who was wondering what his tuning was and if his Uke is a tenor Uke it's all on his page. Tenor uke... GCEA but G is lower than C instead of C lower than G.

[ouiali]

ahhh i need to get this strumming down!! i can't seem to get it in time ):

[SeceretLies]

dde suckkkkkk u exslain it hecka wack!

[TerryFree3]

Thanks for the simple but very thought out clear tutorial..

[pociferous]

what is the your uke tuning for this song? it sound like the top string is the bass string?

doesn't sound like G C E A.

[docholiday06]

hey could you explain how to do the plucking?

I got that you said 4-2-3-1 then 3-2-4.... and you stopped explaining so its kind of confusing. Could you write what the plucking is on each chord?

[ouiali]

@docholiday06 that is the plucking - it's 4-2-3-1-3-2 and repeat

[docholiday06]

could you explain or write down the pluck pattern? you kinda explained it briefly and then stopped so im a little confused.

I got 4-2-3-1 and then 3-2.....

[docholiday06]

[atwcrtcw]

[panther8000]

[blubbersticks]

Why does it sound like you have an harmonica accompianment?

[scottydrpepper]

weird acoustics?

[eallend]

@blubbersticks hahaha it does sound like theres a harmonica at some points, its just the recording though, the quality and what not

[11cjasp11]

@blubbersticks cause your high?

[felortegav]

sorry to ask but when you play the song chords with arpeggio, which string do you play first and second and so.

great video!

[cityfan06]

really excellent tuition the best one ive found!cheers mate.

[JasonPartieshere]

whats the pluck pattern thing

haha(:

[ChelBel816]

hey im a little slow lol. whats the strumming pattern for this song?

[scottydrpepper]

The strum pattern is Down down-Up up-down-up

At the C F G ("it goes like this the fourth the fifth") the C is the Down down-U up-down-up but the F and G are just the first half, (F)Down down-Up (G)Down down-Up.

If you need more clarity I will post a video.

[ThatUnicycleKid]

@scottydrpepper

It's d-d-u-u-d-u?? it just sounds wrong when I play it like that, too slow compared to yours

[ljrunner26]

[prixtisa]
