Mainly me playing my ukelele (yes, British alternative spelling) or other instruments. You'll see me busking in Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire & South Yorkshire, mainly for fun, and to cheer people up. Don't expect perfection - I usually leave the odd mistake in, as constant retakes make it stale - I often improve my playing of a song later - I see this channel as a online version of busking. I do different sorts of songs, on different ukeleles, depending on mood/which uke I think suits - I have 8 different instruments.
Also, if you think I deserve a cuppa, or want to contribute to some strings (or even my next uke if you're that impressed), then please donate a small (or even massively-large!) amount to my Patreon or busk page links above. I do welcome comments, including constructive criticism in moderation. You can also follow my blog, W link above. And my website at www.UkeEric.co.uk . That's where you can contact me/hire me for events. But most of all, just enjoy!

Who's been polishing the sun, soprano uke cover
Просмотров 215 месяцев назад
This song was composed by Noel Gay for a film, but is just one of those fun songs that could be sung anytime. Excuse a few fluffs, but, instead of doing it in the easier key of C, I followed the key played by Leslie Holmes in 1934 (B), so some of the chords are a bit fiddly. (If you just want to give it a quick go, try it in C, but if you really want to play it, learning this won't be too hard....

Hello, Eric….this is o Maxalot,
Nice one Eric
Thanks!
Great work Eric, I think I may have met you at MUGs some years ago. You are very inspirational to me and I think a lot of others. How long have you been playing?
Must be about 10 or 11 years now. Been singing all my life, in choirs and solo, and performed on stage in various guises when I was a child. But, except for music education at school, no serious instrument learning until I randomly bought a uke, and taught myself from being at MUGS and through internet resources and youtube.
Thanks for recording this. Hard song to find a recording of!
Yeah. This is some of what I'm about. Keeping old songs alive, especially obscure ones. You may also like some others I have done: 'Who's been polishing the sun?', 'A bird in a gilded cage', 'What's the colour of a yellow horse?', 'How could Red Riding Hood' and 'When banana skins are falling', to name a few.
Absolutely love this, thankyou for sharing, you've made someone's night quite a bit brighter
My pleasure 😊
good😄
Keep up the good work Frank.
Hi Eric! I really enjoyed that song! Loved your singing and strumming! :-) Thanks for sharing this tune from the past with us Ukulele Lovers!. :-) Mario 💜
Fantastic!
Glad you like it!
RUclips meant that i have to see/hear this - its so cute with a little bit "hope of deliverance", and a little off harmonix is pleased, yeash ?
....un capo !!! esa sí que es voz !! Pobres Bee Gees....se lo perdieron no más !!
Well done! Kind of a complicated song actually
You can't hear it, but me and my roomie gave you a little applause at the end. Cheers from Sweden and a new subscriber!
Thank you.
Cover some joy division?
Might do.
Hi, this is great keep on singing mate, I've subbed & liked!! good luck establishing your channel also. I'm growing mine and will be uploading some of my cover songs very soon, kind regards, Quantum😉🙏
Thank you.
Nice to see your still playing, I stood and listened to you for a few hours a couple of years ago with my friend and followed you since.
Thanks! I have quite a few videoes on here, but do all sorts of other songs as well when out busking.
love the song
i love this song, ur very talented sir!
Thank you.
Great rendition of this song. I also like it a lot
You really rock that Soprano Eric!! 👍🤟
Brilliant when are you next in chesterfield I love to stand and listen to you
Likely to be there several times this summer, probably later this week for a start.
That's a John Grey banjo! Do you happen to know how old it is? Cheers mate, I enjoyed that.
From the badge on the headstock it is on or before 1959, I think, but the lack of ornate decoration, and the Formica on the drum tend to suggest it is 1950s rather than earlier. I got it as a bargain from a FB ad - the owner just wanted to sell it as quickly as possible as he was moving out, didn't know what it was worth and was glad that I was interested in playing it - so I got it for £10!
Yes, being a husband is a skill acquired at some expense. And it never stops. But it's worth it. Cheers mate.
Very true
👍👍👍
Truly inspirational Eric
Go Eric!!!
Just the chords would have been nice. But nice try.
Very sweet sounding song :-)
Nice c:
I saw you a few years ago! Stood with my friend and listened for quite awhile
this is awesome!!
love to see it
Wowza sounds good 👍😁
Epic
RUclips algorithm gave me this cover so I hope it does well for you
Thanks. Have noted that, all of a sudden, some of my videoes are being recommended. Look back to see some of my other videoes if you want.
Nicely done
Thanks!
1926???? the way you sing it is soo saucy!
There's ones from that era that are nearer the knuckle than that, see this one: ruclips.net/video/T1jYHvYdlFc/видео.html
Great singing! You look so funky... sort of like you're in a prison jumpsuit, lol! Keep uploading stuff, please!
Nice! You should try busking if you haven't before, you have such a good vibe so I think folks would appreciate it 😊
Have been busking for some years. It is, I think, the best form of entertainment, because you learn what entertains, and what doesn't.
Really interesting way to cover the song on ukulele!
It’s a bar
Quite nice!
hey good job :)
Thanks.
Cool strum! Does it have a name?
I don't know. I always find it hard to explain my picking or strumming patterns, because I just go by feel.
Hello from the ol’ St Pixel…..
That’s sounds brilliant Eric ❤️❤️
Great Eric ❤️
Lovely Eric ❤️
Really cool one Eric! Nice one!
