one of the best covers ive seen of this song. i wanna jam to this every morning when i wake up, where can i download this?!!

[mwasher88]

First off, this is not only my favorite ukulele video on Youtube, but one of my favorite Bob Marley covers out there, you've got some real talent.. on another note, have you at any point put together tabs for your version? I have yet to find better ukulele tabs for this song, and I'd love to know the chords you play. thanks, and happy playing!

[MarvinTevaga]

@mwasher88 Thanks for your comments. I use G,C for the slow parts and then G and Am for the faster parts of the song. Bridge is High C and ? sone other chord (sorry dont know the exact chord) and then Hold down 2 bar whole and Am. Sorry hope this helps. Aloha!

[Bane2All]

[cavabonne]

Aloha! Recovering from the flu when you recorded this?!? OK, I was already impressed, but the fact that you weren't 100% health-wise, impresses me more. You have some sick (and I mean that in a GOOD way) talent. Thanks so much for posting this and please continue to record music. You are very gifted!!

[rovilier]

Original sample

[souljawaiian]

Island style never fails! Nice cover. I don't think I have heard any better ukulele cover of this song. U have a good voice and some skiils on the uke. Keep killing it man!

[MJ198210]

@souljawaiian - I agree - I don't know how much better this song could get on ukulele (at all?) than this. This is so very good. I keep coming back to it.

[mattanderson619]

Great job man, loved it!

[ShortaayOneLove]

super soothing & strong vocals (: love it keep it up!<3

[bobmc3]

hey!

very nice cover!

thats a concert or tenor ukulele?

peace

[MisVit]

I did not expect those vocals, A+++

[ranmachan2]

I thought this video was something else but I'm impressed with your voice, keep up the good work.

[womby28]

you have a killer voice!! In the beginning I thought the playing was a little weak and the vocals were a little loud. Then in the middle you picked it up with the strumming pattern. I still think the vocals were a big loud though.

I hope that was helpful and constructive.

GREAT cover!!

[MJ198210]

You killed that. Great ukulele playing and vocals.

[whatupshorty132]

nice job marvin!

[2ndbut1stCommand]

brah dat was hella sick great voce take it to da next level braddahn clever ukulele skills

[CheeeeePono]

major props! killah cover...one of the best!
