@whoesthatsexyguy When you're playing that quickly, it can actually be a hindrance to try to watch your fingers. It's much more efficient to just know what you're doing and "feel" it.
wait, let me see if i got it well, this guys ain't got even 3 mil views, and justin bieber gets tens of milion views for that "music" ? this is art not that baby shit
how many years have you played before you were able to do things like this on ukulele? i just started learning by myself and would love to do things like this in the future! ur amazing!
This is great, because oof people like him and sungha I just cant hear music the same,knowing how much better people like this are than what you hear on the radio.
@KaptainSushi You think very highly of yourself when you think I'm expecting something from dumbfucks like you who for some reason think receiving negative reactions from the internet is a big fucking deal. Are you one of those shitheads who kill them self over some bitchy stupid reactions from your fake circle of friends? I hope you are. And "bad words"? What are you? 10? Retarded? Raped by catholic priests at 5 for being bad? Go back to your fucking soapland cunt.
@KaptainSushi Hello. When it comes to people like CroissantOrange, the best approach is to simply ignore them. There's no sense in allowing yourself to be infected by their brand of negativity. Let the weak die off.
@markstringf Interesting. What part of the world do "ignore them" means "read every fucking thing that guy said, and the other guys too, and fucking follow they fight". Wise man. So wise. So Fucking Pretentious. Fuck off.
he is really good, but this is all because of practice. you can tell where he speeds up a little, especially the parts he enjoys...like any normal person, he gets a little excited when he plays his favorite parts, moving his fingers just a little faster
@KaptainSushi So Fucking Boring! A reply devoid of any trace of culture, intelligence or humanity. You people are so dull I don't know how you can get a hard on to reproduce. Fuck this shit. Besides, why I don't put comment like that? Is the comment box only reserved for dick sucking? "Oh this is great", "so wonderful", "two thumbs up!", "I just cum", "[insert internet neolithic-level culture jargon]". Sounds like a fucking motivational class for mildly retarded fucks.
@nevernohijab Poorly observed psychology phenomenon combines with juvenile internet acronym doesn't impress me neither. Got something witty, new to say or just the generic stupid bullshit of the "Majority"?
@nevernohijab Nah, telling a dumbfuck he's using some of the World Coalition of Dumbfucks' fucking dumb common bullshit has nothing to do with prejudice. But whatever, I don't mind you follow me around for some spare pieces of bone but you have to stop barking though.
@CroissantOrange You may not know it yet, but there's nothing extraordinary about you - in fact, you are pretty stereotype with your vulgarity. Leave me alone.
@nevernohijab Leave you alone? Not only you're dumb as fuck, you also have split personality? Who was the shithead who followed me around with annoying, pretentious comments about how I'm a "sad, arrogant person". Well, fuck off back to cuntville. And by the way, it's "stereotypical". "Stereotypical" as in "Your extraordinary stupidity is somehow very Stereotypical of a random internet cockhead".
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Some guy pretend to play flamenco on the ukelele .. big fucking deal. Origin, age, and what the fuck not besides, this is boring comparing to the real shit on the guitar.
@nevernohijab Pretentious New age eco-friendly Reader's Digest pseudo-philosophy doesn't impress me. And thank you very much for the manufactured, inhumane, fragile, meaningless and utterly boring "Happiness" that you talking about but I got them a-plenty from neon lit billboards, magazines and a lifetime slavery contract. You know where to shove it.
@musicmaster555 @norich111@cocody121 .... This guy has been playing since he was FOUR years old ... if you guys would do ANYTHING that long, then all you guys would be great at it, no exception ... your negative comments are inacceptable and racist ... his talent has nothing to do with origin, grow up, and see in your daily lives how you contribute to the betterment of this world ... cause this guy is way ahead, doing something he likes, and something he is good at ... learn from him
rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, paper beats rock; Chuck Norris beats all 3 but who needs Chuck Norris when Asians are better than EVERYONE at EVERYTHING! :)
so... the ukulele is very popular up there.. didnt know that...
but nothing spezial, that asian guys can do something good... you have a lot of those crazy guy.. it seems like everyone has no life up there because of one thing hes doing the whole day (but doing it perfectly)
there is someone who plays in the backdoor...
