[geppegep]

[Eaglesfootball2011]

[MrUkuleleify]

[LoveGewdMusic]

Tutorial PLEASE I Amm BEGGING Yew!!! This Iz Amazing!!!! <3

[00watermelon]

Oh my god.... I will bet thousands of dollars that I will never learn ukulele like that. **Tear**

[QAFgurl]

Wow. I usually hate covers but you're great =O

[SourNaik]

Dude tutorial? Chords? Strum pattern?? SOMETHING!! great job!

[Meggiekb]

Is this is regular tuning or is it a step higher?

[SunDaiRane]

That was amazing. I was just wondering what chords you used for the bridge.

[manyourcoolchris]

@MikeTheMan1607. I like how you throw "making a lot of money" and being "ridiculously rich" into the whole Carrie underwood being awesome thing. Carrie Underwood is cool and all but We as humans need to re-prioritize our idea of happiness or success. Money isn't the answer. I'm not trying to offend you or start anything I'm just saying

[TheLostSoulX]

@manyourcoolchris shut up... you wish you had her fame and money & that you were ridiculously rich. You're just saying that, but I bet you don't live by example....Money = neccessity everyone needs and wants it. If you think differently give it all away.. theres plenty of people that will line up.

[samoapride04]

lmfao ur gud its jst fny

[AnnaElena]

This is gorgeous, especially at the beginning with all the picking and strumming. Great job!

[joshhodges23]

tabs?

[OxymoronSmartChav]

Love this song, and it sounds epic on a uke, finding tabs asap!

[TheSasha555]

You would be perfect for American Idol.

I think there still holding auditions.

[auralu1992]

me encanta el sonido del ukelele!!!!

[TheACGProduction]

Agreed I respect him more. Get a recording contract haha or put a song on iTunes because if you do I'm buying it right away

[katinkers]

@miketheman1607 a musician making something for themselves for being on american idol is only slightly better than an actor trying to make something of themselves for being on the real world. they might be talented, but in my opinion it's just in bad taste.

[PepsiBunnyPwns]

omg asian. <3

[Fore1Stijn]

Top bad there's alot of background noise. :(

[FunkMasterKRoc]

respect!

[madigan1323]

You are amazing. I wish you all the success in the world!

[MrJakekola]

HAHA the video length is 4:20

[MrKokiMichael]

bigtwink15 is the only one who got what I was saying.

[AHAAlindalinda]

if you were meant to be famous, then it will happen. no tv show will give that to you. you have an amazing voice and I do think it needs to be spread for knowlege.

[YoDog8585]

@MrKokiMichael just cause you can't make it doesn’t mean you should hate on the show's contestants. Oh and carrie underwood is AWESOME btw. Anyone who disagrees is a moron and has something stuck up their...

[tj072388]

Who cares about being respected in the musical community? There are a select few who are making millions of dollars and winning countless awards for their music. They must be respected by someone who is important....the fans.

[heymartti]

I found this very nice. You were totally into the song towards the end =)) BUT THAT'S AWESOME AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS VIDEO IS PURE TALENT!

[shinrips]

Soulful! Are you part black? Just kidding.

[blackknights94]

[riceyasian86]

[MrKokiMichael]

*** Just a comment to all the people who say "OMG GO ON AMERICAN IDOL" ***

Telling a vocalist or any kind of musician that they should go onto a show like American idol is more insulting than it is complimenting. Many vocalists, such as myself, view shows like American Idol and X-Factor as shows where singers sell themselves out. Never has a musician from either of those shows become respected by the musical community.

[njragazz]

@MrKokiMichael John Mayer was on American Idol.

[ezekill22]

@MrKokiMichael I agree that people shouldn't say go on american idol or anything of that sort, but at the same time you can't put down american idol. There are millions of great musicians in the world, and they can't all make it on their own. If anything, american idol is helping these people get put out to a large audience. it gains the much deserved attention to those who need it. After winning or gaining said attention, then they can play what they want.

[ezekill22]

@MrKokiMichael If you can't see that, then fuck the musical community, and how dare you try to put down a musician for trying to make it in the music business. A compliment is a compliment. Take it or leave it, douche.

[MikeTheMan1607]

@MrKokiMichael You are dumb. If being successful, famous, and making a lot of money is the same as selling yourself out, then I would gladly go on American Idol (if I could sing). Look at Carrie Underwood. Amazing singer, has won tons of awards, ridiculously rich, etc. If you don't respect her, it's because you don't know what talent is. They find some great talent on American Idol.

[AtomDisaster]

@MikeTheMan1607:

You can be rich without money. Money doesn't = respect. Underwood is successful and their is a lot of great talent on American Idol. But money and respect only go together when you've got money to blow. Once the money is blown so is the respect. Money doesn't = respect. And most rich people don't really look that happy to me. Just sayin'

[MrKokiMichael]

@MikeTheMan1607 I'm talking directly to the musical community, not the consumer community. Two completely different points of view when dealing with the music industry.

[ahkgirl]

@MikeTheMan1607 I agree with you....She's done great! So have a lot of other American Idol finalists.

[burtonbro417]

@MikeTheMan1607 first of all carrie underwood blows. second of all jack johnson isnt rediculously rich but he has a lot better vocals and guitar skills then her..............i respect him a lot more.

[sevillacorporation]

@MikeTheMan1607 and that's how you feel 'cause you're not a musician.

[TheTBearTales]

@MikeTheMan1607 bad show. bad singers. and the contract they give you is terrible...

[ouchy112]

@MrKokiMichael Ms. Clarkson seems to be doing pretty well so is that little known Carrie Underwood...

[dimed31out]

@MrKokiMichael carrie underwood??

[kaititiro]

@MrKokiMichael true but the millions of fans n dollars are there to help them through their lonliness

[ticktickclat]

@MrKokiMichael May be true is some aspects, but seriously who are you? Can totally understand it coming from someone who has made it like John Mayer, not some guy just making covers and basic songs on youtube. Seriously mate who are you to pass judgment on anyone when you have no first idea about the music industry?

[TheIz2208]

@MrKokiMichael

You are completely incorrect about the musicians from American Idol not being respected in the musical community. Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Kelly Clarkson, and more are all great musicians and are respected by many. Shows like American Idol are only a gateway to gain a record label and a following.

[Rainb0wWarri0r]

@TheIz2208 I like how only kelly clarkson truly had great success. Most of the artists have faded into obscurity - studdard, aiken, fantasia, etc etc are all just names at this point. American Idol is NOT a path to music, considering it turns into a great popularity contest - see Sanjaya.

[Marvinrandom1]

@TheIz2208 lol, carrie uderwood and carrie clarkson arent respected at all, id dickslap them with my ass while they sing about my huge penis while making a sandwhich for me 

[mrbongo55]

@MrKokiMichael

kelly clarkson maybe?

[erincatherinex0x]

@MrKokiMichael Carrie Underwood is pretty respected.

[ScottFRee080888]

@MrKokiMichael Leona Lewis?

[Nejinetsuke]

@MrKokiMichael carrie underwood?

[JordanBukikosa]

@MrKokiMichael Perhaps that's just you. :(

I was introduced to General Larry Platt through AI.

hahaha LOL " PANTS ON THE GROUND! PANTS ON THE GROUND!"

Looking like a FOOL with yo pants on the ground!

[rummy87]

@MrKokiMichael ..really? cuz jennifer hudson isn't a huge musical icon right now?...lol she def started out on american idol.

[BallForLife24]

@MrKokiMichael Chris Daughtry, Adam Lambert, Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, David Archuletta, David Cook, Jordin Sparks, Clay Aiken, and Carrie Underwood are all wellrounded singers thathave made something out of themselves and are highly respected by the musical community. Don't rip on them because you're trying to make a point. Granted; this guy is amazing but he doesn't fit the mold of American Idol, he's not a singer, he's a musician.

[cheesicles]

@BallForLife24

Personally I think they all suck.

[BallForLife24]

@cheesicles That's your personal opinion, which you are entitled to my friend. Personally I can't stand Fantasia, she's just overblown and "too much" in lack of a better word. But you can't deny that all of them are respected and successful.

[jasonstheory]

@MrKokiMichael Although I do hate those shows, Chris Daughtry, Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson are all pretty well respected in their respective musical communities.

[bigtwink15]

@MrKokiMichael

Carrie Underwood I would say is pretty well respected in the musical community. However, she is the only one. Anyways, I have to agree with you. I have no respect for the musicians that want to "take the easy way". I have more respect for the people who put there blood sweat and tears into trying to become a successful musician.

[Globalx59]

@MrKokiMichael dude ur obviously a fucking idiot every winner and runner up for american idol is a millionair now soo haha they can take a shit on ur half of the musical industry wether there respected or not theyre bringin in big bucks

[ep3hondaLover]

@Globalx59

yea cuz thats what being a talented musician is about. making millions on a tacky ass show.

[MrKokiMichael]

@Globalx59 HAHAHHAHA. I laughed out loud when I read this, so I have to reply.

First of all: You're an idiot for thinking that the music industry is about making money. You're just like those pigs running the federal reserve. "OMG OMG WE NEED 100 BILLION MORE DOLLARS"

What's it all amount to? nothing. Respect > <oney and money cannot buy real respect.

Second of all: You have no sense of what matters, therefore your comment has been nullified.

<3

[dontcallmedoll88]

@MrKokiMichael I have to agree somewhat, but what about chris daughtry and Kelly Clarkson, or even Adam Lambert, they have all been pretty big afterwards...

[CamT137]

@MrKokiMichael

If you think musicians don't respect Carrie Underwood, then you are ignorant.

[Globalx59]

@MrKokiMichael you think your hot shit when really u suck at singing and u look like some skinny fished faced cat eating korean kid

[apow369]

@Globalx59 I DONT AGREE WITH SOMEONES OPINION SO ILL JUST INSULT HIM HURP DURP

[MrKokiMichael]

@Globalx59 You know the loser of an argument when they start insulting the other's appearance.

[BasementFights]

@MrKokiMichael

yeah dude jackie evancho totally sucks

[masonyoo]

@MrKokiMichael kelly clarkson :D she's respected.

[hookahzen]

@MrKokiMichael there has been a few that went on and now are doing very well for themselfs. I do agree with you for the most part. Keep playing bro

[MathijsMoonen]

@hookahzen What he means is that those "stars" skip the whole "earning your name with hard work and long years of practice" and therefore don't get much recognition from artists that climb their way up instead of being propelled up. There are many silent artists that are much better than the Idol or Xfactor winners that will never know fame because the ladder to succes is much too steep and the people that actually win those stupid commercial shows steal their spots at the top.

[mattsdchs78]

@MrKokiMichael thats fucking retarded. your selling out if you go on a talent show? you must not really want to be a musician cause it seems to me that if you really wanted to be one you would suck it up and go on the show if it gave you a chance to get noticed.

[ashleyyx315]

@MrKokiMichael That isn't necessarily true, about being respected.. Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson are both extremely respected. I don't really enjoy American Idol, but that doesn't mean anyone is selling themselves out or won't be respected.

[RicardoEstevesMusic]

@MrKokiMichael

So true...

[UNORIGINALITYY]

@MrKokiMichael So false. Daughtry, Carrie Underwood, Jordin Sparks, Clay Aiken, Kelly Clarkson... All well-respected, very successful musical artists. If you don't see that, you're stupid.

[ShooterGM]

@MrKokiMichael Carrie Underwood is very respected. Go home

[SqueekyBootsShine]

@MrKokiMichael People aren't using American Idol as a standard of good musicians, but rather that that's somewhere where he can get better exposure and take his talents to greater heights and bigger crowds (aka national television)

[Bound4Earth]

@MrKokiMichael I agree that shows like American Idol rarely pump out stars because any talent on the show is weeded out because they chose the wrong song on some stupid theme week they shouldn't be singing in or there story isn't sobworthy enough. But saying all singers that go on these shows aren't respected makes you look like a hippie tool. Keep your videos on youtube we have had enough chip on my shoulder people in the music industry and are in need of no more Fiona Apple nut jobs.

[BenePHIcial11]

@MrKokiMichael You are so right bro



[deathdealer7744]

damn, nice singing bro. American idol is for you.

[bozu2002]

[Danuraedi0314]

woooow your waaaaaaayyyy off tone!

[loull287]

nah he really is off tone compared to the original. i dont think im crazy but i think its kind of his own flavor to the song anyhow, as the ukulele is more relaxed he sings it a bit relaxed.

[rclifford13]

just letting you know this is one of my favourite videos on youtube. thanks!

[rclifford13]

is the tone on your uke similar to a normal tenor? thanks mate

[kikkoman34]
