  • I want to be your best friend

  • This is absolutely beautiful.

    I've replayed this at least 5 times already; In a row.

    Your voice is stunning, and your uke is amazing.

    Keep at it man. :)

  • @80zrocka thank you!!

  • @uketricks I... I like your beard you got going on. ^_^

  • I do love this version. Beautiful instrument, beautiful song, and beautifully played. I applaude you, sir.

  • Your voice is absolutely perfect for this song

  • What type of Ukelele do you play?

  • very nice and beautiful! I really like your singing. I've just uploaded a cover of the same tune. I hope I can learn the fingerpicking eventually..

  • Is there any way you can do a tutorial for this?! It's my favorite version i've seen on youtube!!

  • Absolutely beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

  • what is the strumming/picking for when u play the f and g when u sing the fourth the fifth? i noticed it sounds faster, this is really amazing tho btw

  • @jujukeju For the F and G, I break my picking pattern a little bit. The song is played to a count of six. For the F chord, I'm plucking the top three strings in succession, and then I repeat plucking the top three strings for the G chord. Each chord gets three beats. Another way to put it is that the F is played for the first three beats of the measure and the G is played for the 4th, 5th, and 6th beats of the measure.

  • My goodness, this is wonderful.

  • This is truly one of the most serenely beautiful versions of this song. You should be proud of your efforts and thank you for sharing with us. I'm stopping on this song until I can play it like this on the ukelele.

  • This may be the best version of this song I've heard...

  • Really lovely. I forgot for a moment that it's a cover of a song I know well, which is, I think, about the best thing.

  • I have seen a few covers... This is by far the best! Nice voice, and great playing. I plan to purchase a ukulele myself. I must learn this song!!

  • Amazing voice, amazing Ukulele playing (I know how hard it is to do the picking on the ukulele).

    Thumbs Up and Favoured!

  • Woah, this is amazing. It just shows the amazing range a ukelele posses. Most people think its just Hawaii or upbeat sort of feel good music, but I'm starting to learn you can do much more than that.

  • Added it to my favorites.

  • I normally don't like covers of original songs but this was REALLY good. I'm glad you uploaded it.

  • I love your version of this song by the way! u are amazing, and i can honestly say i go on your website, like, everyday!!! thanku!!!!!!!!!! :D

  • This is top draw, bags of emotion and very touching! Just been working it out via your tutorial video as well, thanks for sharing.

  • please... give me some tags brah!

  • Why do people insist on crediting Buckley? You're not covering a cover, you're covering Cohen's original.

  • what kind of a ukelele do you use?

  • @Shanemandelful I have a ukulele made by an amazing luthier named M. J. Franks. You can check him out at mjfranksguitar [dot] com

  • woah, just....woah!

    it touch the deepest part of my soul

    even i am a asian : )

  • beautiful!

    

  • hehehe you and your ukulele are so awesome! <3

  • Amazing

  • This is... woah. I don't have any words. You're amazing.

  • i just died

  • I love this video so much

  • Best cover of this stunning track ive seen on you tube on any instrument.

  • @Valiceemo wow, thank you for your kind words!

  • A beautiful version of a beautiful song. :) A random question of no consequence: in the intro you play a 5,4,3,3 version of C, but later in the song do you use the more common 0,0,0,3 version too? It looked like it but I was not quite sure. ^-^ Either way it's inconsequential but thought I'd ask anyhow.

  • @BasementRuthie yep, you got it. I vary up the voicing throughout the song for the C major chord.

  • cheers dude :)

  • can we get a tutorial for this please?

  • @robbiea1594 head over to my channel and search my videos for one called: Ukulele Fingerpicking Lesson: How to Play "Hallelujah". enjoy!

  • inspiring

    

  • beautiful version! I absolutely love your cover. Please give Leonard Cohen the credit for his song though. Jeff covered it amazingly but it is still Cohen's beautiful song.

  • Wow that was so great.

  • You Have A Beautiful Voice :)

  • I love you

  • I love you

  • I love you
