Nobody's Sweetheart - ukulele

On which Wikipedia is brief:
"Nobody's Sweetheart" (sometimes rendered "You're Nobody's Sweetheart Now") is a popular song, written in 1924, with music by Billy Meyers and Elmer Schoebel, and lyrics by Gus Kahn and Ernie Erdman.

Its a great song - I know versions by the Mills Brothers and Leon Redbone, but I guess there are tonnes of them.

I do my usual thing of singing to someone or something just above the top right hand corner of the screen. I'm using my starter uke, a Brunswick BU4S soprano.
Either the video has come out a bit misty or my glasses need cleaning.

And I thought people your age didn't appreciate songs like this. BEAUTIFUL JOB!

You get a lot of music out of the Uke too.

If you ever get the chance, give a listen to a song by Perry Botkin (Sr) called "Uke-uke." Best Uke solo I ever heard.

Maybe some folks on here will know where it can be found. I lost my copy and really would like to have another.

You've got that Leon Redbone sound and style.
