  • EXCELLENT!!

  • Hi. I just start to see some of your videos. I really like the Viva la Vida en swing tempo and La Mer with the ukelele and i am sure i will love more videos of you.

    In this case, i like it better than the "young Aznavour" and less than the "older Aznavour". For me the way Aznavour sing it the "new" slower version (around or over 3:30), when he emphasizes certain parts, or phrasing others is unbeatable. But you made one of the best covers!

    Sorry for me english (im from Argentina)

  • @SebasGreco, hola amigo, thank you so very much for your lovely comment. Your English is excellent btw. Take care, Eric.

  • Bravo!!

  • Hi yeunuocyeudan, thank you, best, Eric.

  • Ukurelic!

    What a fantastic interpretation! Beautiful voice! Is it all lived in the flesh?

    I also wish to hear it a tempo bit slower. WIll you do it for us your fans????

    All the best.

  • Hi WillDanceAlone2U, thank you so much for your lovely comment. Yes, a lot of it rings true with me. Sorry, I never re-do my videos. The reason is that I take quite a bit of care when making them and although they more often than not fall short of perfect, they were the best I could do at the time and must stand or fall as they are. Thanks for asking though, all the best, Eric.

  • Hi deepbreakfast1960, thank you, best, Eric.

  • i always thought these videos were good but enjoyed this one so much i have subscribed

  • Hi SuperTravisbickle, wow, thanks very much. All the best, Eric.

  • really good...carry on my friend...this song is about life and friends and things that have gone.....thanks for your perfomance.

  • eatsee, hi Eat, thank you so much for your lovely comment. Take care, Eric.

  • Wow! Ukuleleric you have a great voice and your interpretation was fantastic! Could you please redo the song singing it a bit slower?

    By the way, who are you?

    The ending was very very good and original, I have not heard done like that before.

    Keep up the good work.

  • Hi legalrule, wow, thank you for your very kind compliment. For various reasons I don't really want to redo it but thanks for asking anyway. Who am I? lol, good question. Well...nobody, I guess, is the answer. Just an old pro finding new life in this video lark. Thanks a lot, take care and have a great Christmas. Best, Eric.

  • hi ukuleleric, perhaps sometime we can perform together rendering this superb song somewhere, anywhere on earth. by the way i m from malaysia a small time performer here and most of them dont even know of my existence right here in malaysia he he he

  • Hi kassimselamattenor, thank you so much for your comment. Maybe some day we might perform together, who knows? As for being a small-time performer, there are millions of us throughout the world who keep the time clock of show business ticking. We aren't all stars. Cheers mate, my thoughts are with you. Best wishes, Eric.

  • cmsingerbill, hi Bill, cheers mate, Eric.

  • Uku: If you have looked at Ginzo's Photo-Montage of disc-covers for my "Karaoke-Bar", you have seen me in various phases of my life. But, thankfully, they pass rather quickly ...

    I hate, how i look now! ;-)

  • wolf175, hi Wolf, I didn't realise before that that's you on the discs. But I know what you mean, greying moustache, receding hairline, wrinkles, God, it must be hell! Seriously though folks, this guy has a lovely voice, check him out. All the best mate, Eric.

  • You almost made me pee into my pants, Uku. You really ARE funny. Here, it's Sunday already. Cherry-blossoms wilting away ... Just like us. .. ;-) Cheers! Wolf

  • I would love to see photos of you, when you really were young ... Wolf/Kyoto (Wolf's Karaoke Bar)

  • Hi Wolf, thanks for comment. Actually, that's an idea. I do have photos of myself from over the years I might upload a montage. Should be good for a laugh. Cheers, Eric.

  • Wonderful! A great rendition of a in incredible song! Dusy Spring would be proud of you!

  • Hi urciolo, thanks so much, Eric.

  • Hi jphilips2, thanks mate, all the best, Eric.

  • I must say that this is quite awesome, your interpretation brings such an amazing life to this song and still manages to mantain the nostalgic feeling.

    I am compelled to say that you are incredible, sir =)

  • Hi Samanosuke2, thank you so much for your kind words, Eric.

  • Great performance. What a pleasure. That is a very difficult song to interpret and to sing - super.

  • Hi ratednine, thank you so much for you comment. I'm sorry it's taken so long to reply but You Tube don't inform when comments are made anymore. Eric.

  • Whoa!, its amazing and awesome, I love it...

  • Hi kimi2008, arigato. Thank you. All the best, Eric.

  • Hi ginnybba, thank you for your comments. There is a saying 'you should not judge a book by its cover'. I'm afraid that applies to me as well, you would be bitterly disppointed. Eric.

  • Hi juniorscrp, obrigado por comment. Unfortunately I do not have sheet music. I got words and chords from internet then did my own backing. Sorry can't help. Eric.

  • I am from Brazil.... I enjoy you sing. Do you have the sheet music of this Beautiful song?

  • Hi Catrien, thank you so much, Eric.

  • golden throat

  • are you sure you have retired eric?yet again very pleasant video and your voice seems to be getting stronger especially since i had that wax removed..cheers

  • Hi billyboggins, lol, but seriously folks, many thanks and nice of you to say so. I guess you could say my voice has taken on a kind of patina after years of singing, and I rely a lot on technique. All the best, Eric.

  • Hi HozanMoe, thank you very much, all the best, Eric.
