Hey I started learning the uke yesterday and was looking for something that helped with chords and strum pattern. I love I'm yours and you made it so easy. So thanks and please make some simplified versions of other songs I'd love to learn some more :) xx
so you're awesome. i've been having a really hard time with the palm mute. but after closely inspecting what you were doing, i got it down mostly! just practice. gonna go get some chicks ;] cheers!
Hi, Jezander, you made it look doable. I was undecided about deciding to learn to play the guitar or the ukelele. I think I will go for the Ukelele. What about beatles songs? do you have more tutorials to post?
Ive been practicing the initial rhythm, the up down up mute or however its called, for a couple hours now in between songs and the top of my finger is killing me lol I got to build up that skin... Thanks for the tutorial
You should include that the A chord is an A minor chord. An A major chord is different, but great tutorial brosef made this song super simple. Now you should do one showing some of the extentions he added :o
Thanks Jake :) Really easy to follow and very clear. I know this was posted so long ago but you can post those other tutorial vids you have if you still got em ;)
ok, so i followed the up,down,up chuck strumming pattern and the rhythm still doesn't seem to be right. Also do you add in another strum between changing chords?, yours sounds alot smoother (:
your simplified version of im your helped me sooo much. with both strumming and learning chords! you should make one of BIllionare by bruno mars & travie mcoy
thanks man, just got a ukulele for christmas soo happy!! i love it. and thanks to you i can almost play it fairly well and christmas isnt even over yet!! i really appreciate the vid thank you very helpful
great video! could please put up an simplified versions of some/all/one Jack Johnson songs like breakdown, better together, taylor, banana pancakes, flake etc. thanks a heap!
Thanks man, playing the ukulele is pretty easy to learn, i've never played an itrument (well i've played the skin flute, but i didn't get much sound) and i've learned to play a few songs within a week
Wow, I've been trying to learn this with some really difficult cords wondering how so many people could learn to play so quickly!! This is so much clearer! Thank you : )
buddy, you just made my day.... i just learned something...cheers.... hurrah!!! maybe i will get it after all... please do some Mraz or Jack Johnson chords....
has anyone actually tried singing along or playing this strum pattern w/ the actual song? the chords itself are easy but this pattern is not really with the pace of the original song unless the lyrics are slowed down a ton. suggestion= use these chords but diff pattern
I can't seem to strum right, my finger always get stuck on the first string.
