[jamerz61]

Dude yer awesome. I'm hard to please when it comes to Beatles covers. Great job sir...

[charlottepoet]

YouTube has really given me a love for the Ukelele :) great job!

[ItTakesII]

Why haven't you surpassed me in subscribers yet? You're awesome, keep up the excellent singing/playing, Paul!

[Thestralsxxx]

Very nice. My favourite Beatles song. Well done.

[Graszood]

Ah, that is a wonderful cover!

[mickeleh]

thirty minutes?! Yowza. songsfrompaul's got talent.

[songsfrompaul]

Cheers, Mickeleh! Coming from you - the King of ukuleles (or something) - that means a lot!

PS: If the penny hadn't dropped you've actually seen my sing-songing before on my old YouTube channel, "KronksSpinachPuffs" =)

[mickeleh]

Yes, Penny has dropped. BTW.. love your work on the OurMixTape channel.

Thank you. I'm constantly amazed when musicians I respect say good things about my playing. I see myself as very far from that or any title in ukedom.

[withalittlegrace]

What can I say? Uke, The Beatles. . .

More of both please!

[songsfrompaul]

There'll definitely be more of the former, maybe not of the latter...

[withalittlegrace]

Nooooooooooooooooooo! But you know of my love for the Beatles! =(

But yey for more uke! ;)

[doctornoise]

great job Paul!!

[songsfrompaul]

Cheers Bill =)

[jbdazen]

Very nice! Glad my video worked :-)

[songsfrompaul]

It certainly did - I'm already layin the foundations for a potential Muse ukulele cover :D

[REMsleeper428]

This was beautiful. :]

[songsfrompaul]

Hmm... I wouldn't call it beautiful myself. Perhaps "amateurish" would be a better word :P

[hopeonatenspeed]

haha.

that must have been a pretty quality 30 minutes.

[songsfrompaul]

It was indeed :D

[joannejpeg]

This is my favourite Beatles song. :)

It sounds amaazing on uke! Thanks for this.

<3

I want to buy a ukelele so bad!

[songsfrompaul]

They're surprisingly cheap - mine was just over £20 or so, which is about half the price I expected. Sure, it's not great at staying in tune, but I get by =)

[ZeldaPhan]

This happened a month ago:

Paul: "I'll never play ukulele on youtube!"

Me: "I'm sure i would like it!"

Now:

Paul: "I'm playing the ukulele on youtube!"

Me: "And you couldn't have chosen a BETTER song!"

<3 it, it was very good!

[songsfrompaul]

haha, that comment conversation did occur to me whilst I was uploading it. Nothing like going back on my word :P

[hippopotamiclandmass]

Good job for 30 minutes of preparation. It was quite nice. :D

[songsfrompaul]

Thanks =)

[CodedLockFilms]

Excellent cover, my good man.

[songsfrompaul]

Thankyou! =)

[desertislanddream]

I love this song! =) Great job!

[songsfrompaul]

Thanks! =)

[ghostwritten87]

Wow, great stuff :)

Can't believe that you strummed away on guitar for two days looking for a song to play, and then picked up the uke and had one mastered in 30mins. You are irritatingly talented :)

[poncenchimer]

Glad JB inspired you,,,good job!!!

[songsfrompaul]

JB is an inspiration to us all :)

[roadrunner1896]

Five stars for quick learners with good song choices.

[songsfrompaul]

Thanks! =)

[pinkhottie23]

Major

Skillzz

Great job Paul!

[songsfrompaul]

Cheers! =)

[xperpetualmotion]

You are way too talented. This is amazing, especially for 30 minutes of work =)

[songsfrompaul]

Says you :P

[iHarrySmallwood]

Classic tune, well done for half an hour that's amazing! It takes me at least an hour to learn chords for songs sometimes and even then I'm no good at changing to a different chord.

[songsfrompaul]

Moving from guitar to ukulele is very easy - it's all the same chord shapes but you have to pretend there are only 4 strings and you're playing on capo 5...

[iHarrySmallwood]

Thanks I'll have to remember that. ;)

[8Tails]

So you spend thirty minutes learning how to play, and then you do this.

Show off. :P

Also, distracting box is distracting.

[songsfrompaul]

I plan to take over the world next month using nothing but music and distracting annotations.

[8Tails]

Oo0oh~~ Any chance I could get my own island? I'd even name it The Island Of Paul.

[spazzumgurl]

Pretty awesome for a half hour of work.

Fabulous as always Paul. :D

[songsfrompaul]

I think so too :P

Thanks! =)

[XkittykatkidX]

i never used to see videos this soon after the're posted =D

sounds good to me! the uke is very cool =)

[songsfrompaul]

Thanks! It was actually a present from my parents at the start of the summer.

[fallofautumndistro]

Nice cover, one of my fav songs by them as well, and I don't have many, not a huge fan of theirs.

[songsfrompaul]

I wouldn't call myself a huge Beatles fan but I adore this song. I have a big soft-spot for the Sgt Peppers album too...

[cassluvsmusic]

I love this song! Pretty awesome if you ask me ^_^

[songsfrompaul]

Thanks! =)

[Tdf645]

good cover, I just bought a uke recently, and its pretty easy to go to ukulele after guitar, because its the same tuning pattern as the last 4 strings of a guitar

[songsfrompaul]

Definitely - you're basically just pretending that you're playing on capo 5... and I know all about capos ;)
