HanktheTank's Slave 4 New Wave Video Contest

This is the video for the "HanktheTank New Wave Ukulele video contest." All the rules are explained in the video.
What: Submit a new wave ukulele video. Here is an example of 80's New Wave. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxpB5gjj2Q0 Make it a video response and include "Hankthetank's Slave for New Wave Ukulele Video Contest" in the beginning. Have fun with it. But the number one rule is that your video should feature a ukulele.
When: Submit videos now till 11:59pm CST on Feb 28.
How: The winner will be picked on what video I liked the best. What does that mean? It could be anything. Could be based on the song choice, the playing, the video editing, getting into character, or your interpretation of a certain song. Consider it a challenge more than a contest in that regard. Put your best foot forward. The video I pick there may be better videos, but I don't want any whining on who should have won. I pick who I pick. This is supposed to be a fun contest.
Prizes: 3rd place will get a tuner or something comparable.
2nd place will get a Ukulele Underground Tshirt. And 1st place will get a Nalu Ahua Tenor. shipped anywhere in the world.
So thank you for entering and good luck to you.
The snippet of song I played at the end is "Everything Counts" by Depeche Mode. I do not own the rights to the music.

Dang! Just found out about this. Great job! Despite being too late for competition purposes I have sent a couple of video responses without the necessary httnwuvc wording as I don't know how to do it. I didn't listen to all the rules either - is a guitar allowed as well?

@finnstanley Thanks for the vids. The contest ended last month and winners have already been announced and prizes sent out. Other instruments were allowed but the feature instrument had to be a ukulele. Thanks for the vids though. Loved the songs.

Oh... have I missed the contest? I guess so... bummer! Let me say it's an awesome idea, Hanky! :-)

@henriness Doh! just realized that love plus one doesn't feature a uke as I took to the drums for that one (apparently Nick Heyward himself had that video on his myspace site for a while). Glad you liked the vids though. Check my profile for adam and the ants' ant music and other stuff (if you like).

Hey Hank! Sorry I missed your contest - I really wanted to do it, but there's been a lot of stuff going on lately so I didn't make it. Been enjoying the contest though. Cheers bro!

How cool. I made a video at the end of 2010 saying i wasn't going to sing on any videos this year (as i can't really sing), but i'm always strumming and trying to seeing along with depeche mode tunes at home, so perhaps i'll film one. If the singing is as bad as i expect i'll keep schtum afterwards so people can literally enjoy the silence. Thanks for the inspiration to go off an play though...
