  • What year was this recorded, because I seem to remember watching this before youtube existed? Maybe I'm wrong =)

  • this is gold

  • If you've got a cough or a crying baby... Stay at home FFS

  • GENIUS!!!

  • OMG!!! I've been looking for this video for YEARS!!! I found it a long time ago on another video site before Youtube was born, and it didn't have the song name on it, so I didn' t know how to find it. And yes, this is the same video! The riff that starts at 1:35 is so sick!

  • the album sounds so dumbed down compared to this

  • @Pootie88 Exactly.

  • Man, i love this song. If anyone has a clean mp3 unplugged version of this song, please send me a message!!!

  • Waw

  • amaaaaaaaaazing, i wish I could get the tabs for that :/

  • Awesome Jake's the man!!!!!

  • Jake's the BEST!

  • WOW CALISIS~~~ GAWD DAYUMN THATS SEXY

  • this is my favorite song of his

  • I wish I could say something like "This guys overrated," just because he's so popular, but he's not. He's actually really, really good.

  • mesmerizing....daaang, it's art...5/5, favorited. Thank you Youtube

  • This man is a genius!

  • roger that

  • I saw him in Seattle, left me speechless, this talent is unheard of in America

  • I saw this a long time back and just came back to watch it again. It's become my favorite of Jake's, even over While My Gtr... I've played guitar for 45 years and this guy makes me want to sell them all for a uke.

  • Amazing

  • what is the name of this song

  • Crosscurrent, check out itunes or his website.

  • dude. for a moment I thought he was moving the mic stand with his feet.

  • it's not while my guitar gently weeps dude, it's cross current.. ^^

  • this is amazing! does anybody know where i can get a cleaner version of this song?

  • Phenomenal tune. Makes the uke cool in ways nothing else ever could.

  • the album version of this song is like a million times not as good as this live performance

  • Yes, he is worth the money go see him live you will not forget it.

  • Does anyone know the actual name of this song?

  • crosscurrent

  • Awesome song! And yes, youtube is great for bringing things like this to people.

  • Jake is 100x better to see live. IF you have a chance then you definitely should go to one of his concerts! Not only that he's the nicest guy and he takes his time to meet every one of the fans!

  • amazing.

  • so pantastic

    i would be so great to meet him in person

    a true inspiration.

    and many other uke players : ]

  • Goob bless youtube!! without youtube not many people would know this guy. I became as a huge fan of Jake!! I love the way he plays

  • Incredible sound,speed, and talent..

    I think its kind of strange.. how he started early in 2002.. and only got big around 2007.. Doesnt matter none.. Still listen to music :D

  • A master of an instrument can translate what he hears in his head to what he plays on his instrument. Jake truly is a master! Can't wait to see him in April.

  • whose the dumb bastard that gave this a measley 4?

  • yea?

  • i gave a 5...but i can understand a 4

    not because of the playing, he freaking rocks and is probably the best ukulele player out there

    the video is a little bit blurry though

  • name of the song is crosscurrent, there is an mp3 out there, but just buy his stuff, its worth it...

  • This is truly art.

  • this guy is unbelievable.

  • .. good on ya man..

  • Oh my god.  I had chills so many times. What art.

  • Ez valami elképesztő!Láttam már néhány gitárost,de ennyire tehetséges fickót még soha!Jake the best!

  • The first 1:30 min are slow???

    The whole video is absolutely amazing!!!

    I hope he is going to perform in Europe to somedays. It would be great to see him live on stage.

  • I mean it in terms of the speed but not in the class of this song. This live performance is really great :-)

  • Best song ever ? :o

    <3

  • btw does anyone know where i can find a recording of this not the studio version?

  • naw man theres no such, only live video\

  • actually someone gave me a link to this version but yeah it is really hard to find

  • My hub says a journeyman can play anything anyone else can play, but a master can play a whole bunch of s#!$ NO ONE else can play. JS is a MASTER. Would love to hear him w/Phil Keaggy & Stanley Jordan. His fingers have a life of their own. It's like listening to the Christopher Parkening or Andres Segovia of the ukelele. This genius deserves our support. Join his fanclub--drive 100 mi. to see him in concer-BTW, you can get his cd's on ebay, amazon, or his own website. JAKE YOU ROCK!

  • is this version on Mp3 anywhere i cant find it on itunes or even the less legitimate file-sharing networks its always the studio version. Let me know i anyone knows where i can find it plz.

  • Jeeeeeez! This is awesome!!! 5 stars definitely!

  • This guy should have an album with Pat Metheny!

    Wow, amazing!

  • this is even better than wmggw. he's so fantastic, he's hot and he grooves.

  • Which song is that ? Can't find it .. so Beautiful <3

  • Its Crosscurrent! Hf :-)

  • sounds like there could be a bit of Ehime Maru in there but not sure

  • Beautiful.

  • holy shit its so beautiful this guy definitely should receive more recognition

  • ignore my last message - i realise its crosscurrent.

  • anyone know what the name of this tune is & if it's on a CD - I'd like to buy it.

  • nice.

  • It's lovely how he makes a uke sound like a spanish guitar.

  • Jake Shimabukuro is amazing. I abolutely love and adore this song!!!

  • no wonder you had to sit down again!

  • pure and soooo beautiful! amazing rhythm, great note choice, and a master talent. perfectly slowed down!

    I could go on. what a brlliant player. I never knew an ukulele sounded this good! of cource it's the guy that plays it that makes it work eh.
