[kaneoheGrown]

fun fact: jakes tuning pegs are $200, and his cable is $400.

[taylor410ce]

and his tone is priceless

[kaneoheGrown]

its spelled hawaiian. and he is japanese. blatantly japanese

[ChanimalCrackers]

Jake claims he is Hawaiian by birth. By descent, he is a 5th generation Okinawan.

[gotwins03]

wow that is really cool thanks for telling me

[yeti60]

no he's actually Hawaiin (don't know how to spell it though)

[webkinzrulefree2know]

i like how he knows how hard and soft to determine the sound and how it starts off soft in the begining and then gets louder towards the end

[therimgreaper]

thats called "dynamics" for some reason many artists dont use it much anymore.

[harlequinsCrest]

dynamics create expression

and really? musicians don't use dynamics anymore?! waddaeff?!?!?

[EnmaDarei]

such a sad truth. . .

[Tiffystars]

this gives me shivers

beautiful

[jhummus]

yeah...he is japanese but born n raised in hawaii. and he probably did buy the shirt from walmart or k mart but....he probably rakes in easy 6 digits yearly with his touring in the U.S and japan. just admitt it...jake rips on the uke.....

[mutterpukker]

he bought that shirt from wal-mart.

[elarbol04]

way to go, my friend, way to go once more you've blown our minds and touched our hearts

[killbob234]

FOR THE LAST GODDAMN TIME HE'S HAWAIIN

[Holms]

[julesrules673]

hes an awesome musician to be able to feel so in tune with his instrument and use empty space and create such music on the most unlikely instrument for some of the genres he plays he truly is talented and deserves the title virtusou. y goal as an ukitarist is to be atleast half as good as him. great playing jake and thank you michellekenobi for filming his playing with great camera angles to bring a peaceful mood while watching his playing

[samwise862]

wuts the song that plays at the end?

if u know, please let me kno

[ChanimalCrackers]

Ice cream, by sarah maclaughlin

i probably spelled the original artist's name wrong

[itwfrend]

`touch' is very wonderful music.

I love it!

[faouf]

UnbelievableUnbelievableUnbeli­evableUnbelievableUnbelievable­UnbelievableUnbelievableUnbeli­evableUnbelievableUnbelievable­UnbelievableUnbelievableUnbeli­evableUnbelievableUnbelievable

[AinokeA365]

I wish he could teach me the ukulele

[jode1899]

if he made a cover of clair de lune it would be soooo awsome

[MichelleKenobi]

Ending song is a cover of Sarah McLachlan's "Ice Cream."

[hanr]

[benricebabe]

His hands are sent from god..

He's very very talented

pleasure to listen too

[oswerve6]

wow all the worries of life kinda just leave when u listen to him. I cant get over how good he is man wish I always felt this way. Well heres an idea ( lets all live happy lives, and go over hardships without a second thought

[aksenkto]

ditto. . .

[RurouniRuss]

Omg, I was listening to this song and I looked at my window and it started gently raining.

So epic.

[Ericthefilo]

His hands r sent from God

[45Akira]

Lovely.

Jake fuk¡ckin' rules.

He's GOD.

[IseanseanI]

it makes you emotional.. damn!

[krnxgasoo4life]

i know it sounds really cheesy... but i can't help but say this is such beautiful music

[jtbeatbox]

i know exactly wat u mean:)

[taylor410ce]

nice!

[JMSxAznBlud]

Brings back memories of my ex-gf because i used to play this song to her... The music is soo soothing it just idk makes me wanna Cry.. (its a good thing LOL)

[SupremeArtist]

i just farted and it really stinks

[DNSF1]

you are amazing Jake!

[Vitisaurio]

bdaaaaaa horrible, great playing but the pieces he choose are so fuckin boring!!! Nothing happens in the entire pieces, the same harmony the entire song!!!

[REDIOVT]

and what do YOU do for a living there Viti? Are you a music critic? Does your Mom know you're on her computer? Lighten up a bit...and enjoy life! Jake ROCKS :)

[taylor410ce]

hey watch the video for crosscurrent and see if that changes your mind.

[Pimpreza06]

I highly doubt you've given your comment much thought, before you actually posted. If Jake's music was horrible like you say it is, I highly doubt that all those people would be out there to hear him. He is far from horrible and his ability to play the Ukulele is immaculate.

[Pimpreza06]

Although, you are entitled to your own opinion... nobody asked you to like it. And as it has been said, "If you don't have anything good to say, don't say anything at all." Cut the guy some slack... he's on stage with hundreds of fans. He has the ability to make fans across the world, over the internet. He must be doing something right. Maybe his style of music isn't your type... then don't stop here and carry on your way. Otherwise, be a bit more open-minded.

[masterchief590]

i enjoyed the Dr. Pepper shirt. He is just amazing his musicianship is unparalleled

[K0nan3]

yeah you're right... just close your eyes...

5 stars

[lievekex2]

just close you're eyes and listen lvke

[supaman358]

Awesome
