Hi. I'm Siobhán from Ireland. I bought my ukelele during the covid lock down to keep me from getting depressed. It was the best thing I did. I watched your videos and slowly began to play simple songs. It kept my spirits up and still continues to give me great joy. I'm now part of a ukelele group in my local town and we meet every week to play, sing and chat. I'm so grateful ukelele is part of my life and to you Cynthia for helping me feel it was all possible. Blessings and season's greetings to you and your loved ones.
My husband and I were vacationing in Hawaii when covid struck, and ended up being there a month longer than we'd planned before we could get a flight home. The many, many free ukulele tutorials that were offered online then (Cynthia Lin, Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain, Stu Fuchs, and many others) kept me from going crazy as we couldn't do anything, even in Hawaii. Everything was shut down. The uke helped me keep my sanity. Haha It is such a happy instrument, and you meet so many nice people who also play.
By reading your comment I feel like I'm reading my own life! I also bought mine during covid to try to feel better and it has brought me so much :)
I can relate to that. I bought my first and only ukulele during Covid as well. I used my covid money 😅 It was the best purchase ever! I fell in love so much with the instrument 😍 Such a magical experience 🙌
Hi Cynthia
Well I’m 78 and this is my first post ever so I’m thankful for that. About two months ago I needed something to keep my fingers and mind nimble. So without a musical bone in my body I purchased a ukulele and found you on RUclips for that Im truly grateful as both have given me immense joy. I live in Naples, FL and would love to see you perform. As for a song it would be any song as I still don’t have a musical bone in my body.
I love that! I'm 58 and started playing in February using the RUclips play alongs. They are great! I bring my ukulele to my mother's place. She has Alzheimer's and loves music. When I play and sing with her, she is very happy. Music is the best therapy.
These comments are so beautiful, I love that your mother still finds joy in music in these stressful times. Music has a way of bringing us all back to a common center, a center that transcends the concept of time. Alzheimer’s sort of drops you in different decades at anytime that it wants and somehow music still carries the same power. I’m praying for you and your families, Merry Christmas
@@GHOST-LEPER Thank you so much ❤
@@bonniespruin6369 there is power in the chords so keep, the music will bring us all home
Hi Cynthia. I am grateful for my ukulele. They say you can’t frown when the ukulele music is going down and that is the truth! I live in New Brunswick, Canada and would love to see you come to my beautiful province. The song I would love to see you play is I Can’t Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt. I am trying to learn some Carrie Underwood songs. I love the stories her songs tell. You are certainly an inspiration to us ukulele players and I am happy to be a patron.
Hello Cinthia! I'm Ivan and me and my family are missionaries in Ukraine. I'm greatful that I found your chanel that realy helped me learn how to play the ukulele! I actually only started playing the ukulele 6 months ago but I've made a lot of progress. My wish list is solo christmas music that doesn't require vocals. Thank you very much!!!
Hi Cynthia ! I'm grateful to have people like you promoting the Ukulélé and sharing their knowledge to people that want to learn the Ukulélé. I am still a beginner, but the joy this instrument has given me for the last 18 months is colossal, and it is because of people like you Cynthia that give time and knowledge to the Ukulélé community. I leave in France, in a very small village in the South West near Toulouse, and can't find a Ukulélé teacher... so without the internet community, I don't think I could have carry on. I would love to learn "The girl from Ipanema" or "Perfect day" from you which are 2 beautiful songs. Thank you and have a nice festive season. See you on Saturday for the Live Strum along !
The giveaway is so great for doing this giveaway. I am grateful for getting introduced to Ukelele last year. I never thought about the Ukelele until I heard someone playing it. I started learning from RUclips videos and of course watching your videos. I am from Indiana. I would love to see you do a concert at Ball State University at their music department in Muncie Indiana. What a blessing it would be to have one of your signature ukeleles.
Hello Cynthia,
I am a band director/elementary music teacher and have enjoyed many years of teaching my 5th grade students to play ukulele. I am grateful to have the best job in my school district, being able to create and play music with my students every day. I teach in a small school district right in the middle of Michigan. Your videos have been helpful in my teaching ukulele to my young musicians. Songs I would most like to see are any that would be fun and appropriate for elementary aged children to sing and play in a performance for their friends and families.
Aloha! Attitude of gratitude Everytime I make ukulele vibrations it brings back positive energy from the islands to the OTHER North Shore here in the Great Lakes surf community. I want to hear LAVA… send those warm aloha vibes to these frozen surfers!
I picked up Ukulele when I retired 10 years ago and fell in love with the instrument. It brought me great comfort to play quietly for my father as he lay in hospice and give him some peace. I now play for my new granddaughter, Ruth, (18 months old) and love it when she comes over to strum the Uke. I hope to someday play duets with her! Your videos brink me great joy and love watching them. I'm building up the nerve to play at the long term care facility where I volunteer. Thank you for making this possible.
Hello Miss Lin,
I'm very grateful because we have a great RUclipsr and a great teacher. You're actually my first ukelel teacher haha i learned how to play my very first song felis navidad bacause of you. It was back in December 23,2022. I love youu
aww that’s so sweet! 💗
Hi Cynthia. I am Barbara Onisko from Clovis California (central valley). I am grateful for difficult things in our lives (a new song to learn on the uke, a challenging health issue, how to support my friend with cancer & make a difference in her life, to diffuse a situation with kindness. We learn so much more valuable lessons in difficult times when we can be victorious on the other side of the situation. For the song…a classic by Iz… Somewhere over the rainbow… surreal, a place to escape on my uke. Thank u for your generosity. Mahalo. ❤️
I'm Ilene from NJ and thanks to Cynthia, I have been playing ukulele for nearly four years. I consider myself a more high-intermediate level player but want to improve my skills in fingerpicking. I'm so grateful I found you as I come from a big musical family. I used to play piano and stopped but learning the uke has reignited my interest and am relearning piano as well. I love to sing, but just have to get up the nerve to sing in front of people. There's no one song I want to learn as I am interested in all genres of music so anything new is fine by me!!!
Hi Cynthia! This is Ana from the San Francisco Bay Area. I'm grateful for your generous contributions to make it easier for all of us to expand and share the joys of music. Your teaching style and upbeat personality are encouraging and uplifting. Unchained Melody would be awesome to play on the ukulele. Thank you for all that you do and Happy Holidays to you and yours!
I am so grateful for my family and for my health! Of course I am also grateful that I found the Uke! I now sing and play with family regularly. We do a family sing along with my extended family every Christmas and we use the Cynthia Lin Holiday Songbook. (And yes, we all use Kazoo's!) I would love to see a fun Uke version of a song called The Tennessee Waltz. I am in the Salt Lake City, Utah area. There are lots of great venues to come play here!
Hi! I’m Kasia from Poland. Last year my 8-year old daughter started to learn ukulele to be able to play in a duo with a friend. She still learns it, although it's harder ever since I started to steal the instrument from her 😂. I just fell in love with its infinitely complex simplicity.
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for your exceptional lessons. Your passion for music and skillful teaching have made learning a delightful journey. Each strum brings me closer to mastering this wonderful instrument, and it's all thanks to your guidance. I appreciate your patience, encouragement, and the joy you bring to every session. I share with you the belief that playing ukulele is good both for your mind and your heat. I’m truly grateful for this new beautiful thing in my life!
Come on tour to Poland please! It’s cold and snowy here and we really need your warmth!
I’d really love to see your arrangement of the Nature Boy song. It’s one of my favourites. I love singing it too. I gather it won’t be easy, but if you can’t do it, it can’t be done 👍
Looking forward to more harmonious lessons!
I'm grateful for communities like these that bring joy and light to the world. I'm in Santa Cruz, California and I'm sure our uke community would welcome Cynthia happily! I'd love to learn to learn more Beatles songs on the uke. Thank you!
I’m Chris and I bought ukuleles for myself and kids during the pandemic lockdown so we could play music together. My daughter especially loved playing “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” for her friends over Zoom. The kids didn’t continue playing by themselves but I did! I really love playing ukulele and am so thankful for your instructional videos, singalongs, and chord charts. Your love for music and the ukulele shines through them all :)
Hi 👋 Cynthia
I work at a school in AIEA, Hawaii and they started a Ukulele Club for the students. Sadly they didn’t have an instructor to teach the class but someone volunteered to teach the class and learn with the students together. So I downloaded some of your music sheets and shared links to your RUclips videos where they could follow along with you. It’s been a wonderful experience for the class to get a running start and come together and simply have fun and make new friends and learn something new. Mahalo for providing the tools and knowledge they now have to continue what you have taught them. Thank you 🙏 soooo much! 😁🥰👍
i’d be open to doing a visit / jam at the school. can you contact me via DM if you’re interested?
OH WOW! That would be sooo awesome. I will contact for sure. Thank you! Ken@@cynthialinmusic
I am grateful for the opportunity to learn ukulele from Cynthia which I have been doing for a year. My location is Cigel, Slovakia. I would love to learn Donna Donna made famous by Joan Baez. Also it would be super to hear Cynthia sing the song.
I’m grateful for my family, my dad has been battling stage 4 cancer this past year and I’ve taken him to every chemo and dr appt. It really makes you grateful for your loved ones and realize life is precious.
I live in the Tampa Bay Area in Florida, we would love to have you come and play here! Please come to the sunshine state!
For song requests could you do some Ed Sheeran songs? I would love to hear you play shivers on the ukulele!
Thank you Cynthia!
Mahalo
Aloha! I started playing (trying) a ukulele as part of my recovery from a broken neck. I’m from Fleetwood PA which is near Boyertown PA where I take in person lessons with Curt Sheller. Curt and his family host a ukulele festival. I attended for the first time in 2023 and it was so inspiring. I am grateful for the Sheller family and their generosity to our ukulele community. We would love to have you as part of our festival. Thank you for your tutorials and for your raffle offerings. 😊
I am grateful for the gift of music. My mom taught me how to play guitar when I was in high school. I am now 71 years old. Over the years I have had a lot of enjoyment playing. Just resently my other half bought me a Lanikai concert ukulele. I am loving it. I started listening to your tutorials and am amazed at how good you are. You inspire me. I am now your number one fan. Merry Christmas....Mele Kalikimaka!!!
Hi Cynthia! I am grateful for having met you and U3 and participants from our 100 days challenge in Frankfurt and also for my little ukulele group here in my hometown of Braunschweig (Germany). I would love to learn some Irish Folk songs on the ukulele - I've tried that during the 100 days 2023 but couldn't figure out "good" chords or the right key yet... Looking forward to the holiday jam next week! 🙂
so happy i could meet you too!
I think the Irish folk songs would be fun to learn, my Grandmother on my Fathers side was born and raised in Ireland and I never got to meet her so I feel like it would help me connect to those roots in my family tree.
I am grateful to be alive and have the choice to live each day with a smile or a frown. I now live in Tulsa after living on Maui 14 years so Cynthia and my ukulele keep me close to the hawaiian culture that I love and she does make it so easy! So far I have not found a ukulele club here so it is me and Cynthia everyday.The song is higher than a beginner but love the variations of all, "Yesterday"
🙏 Thank you for ALL you do for the ukulele community. I am so thankful for this community. I started playing ukulele right before Covid and it gave me something to strive for during lockdown. Though the lockdown was rough on the community, I think it gave so many of us a way to build NEW family. Your online classes have proven that! We would love to see you in Wilmington, NC! And of course, any Billy Joel song on the ukulele would be awesome! I second Tears from Heaven. MAHALO from your ukulele OHANA!
Hi Cynthia, I'm Stephanie and I live in Indonesia. I'm so grateful because I've finished my first 100 Day Ukulele Project this year 🎉 You inspire me so much with your singing and playing, and also your great way of teaching. I have also met so many new friends & ukulele player during the 100 Day Project. I'm so glad I join this community. I would like to learn The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole. That's one of my fave xmas song & it would be so wonderful if you can teach us the song. Thank you so much! 😊
hi stephanie ! congrats on your first 100 Days!! i love the Christmas Song, great suggestion!
Hi Cynthia
I actually super grateful for YOU.... I picked up a ukulele with my sister last year and found your utube and patron and am addicted to the point of planning on Hawaii in 2025! So, thank you .... truly thank you!! I am in the DFW area of Texas. The song I am really wanting to learn is one that you have a video of but no music or lessons for. Sweet Child of mine. Also, anything Taylor Swift or Ed Sheeran, or Chris Stapleton. Some modern stuff. Thanks for everything and Happy Holidays!!
Oooooo Sweet Child of Mine, yes! The tabs would be fantastic.
Hiya! I’m a California girl who lives is Maryland now. I’m grateful I found Cynthia’s RUclips channel and she is the perfect teacher for me!!!! I tell my friends and they love Cynthia, too! An ukulele song that I would like to learn and that I think there is not a lesson for (yet) is Handle me care or End of the line by the Traveling Wilburys
I'm grateful for my family and health and for being here today. Originally born and raised on Maui but moved to Tennessee last year. Canoe clubs, 'Just along for the ride' is what I grew up listening to on the way to school in the morning and I would love to learn it along with my kids.
Hello Cynthia. I only took up Ukulele just before Covid lockdowns at the age of 68. I am in England and we were locked down and I had lots of time to follow you on RUclips and I learnt much. I am therefore most grateful to you, Cynthia, for your patience with me, and for always explaining things in an easy way for me to follow. I have improved and now play in a small group which goes to seniors residence homes and we perform songs that gets their feet tapping. I also play a banjolele and your tutorials have helped me improve. I live near Bath in the west of England and would love to have you visit Bath or Bristol so I can listen to you live.
A postscript. I would like you to do a tutorial on Soul Sister by Train. My little group have been unable to get it to work well. Many thanks
Aloha dear teacher, I am grateful for your teaching me how to fingerpick one of my childhood favorite song - Silent Night. You made it sound so beautiful and so easy for an ultra beginner ukee like me to learn without fear; and I am very proud to report to you all that I was able to fingerpick on my uke while singing along with it in only one and a half day, and I practised exactly as you had lovingly advised - Five minutes between doing my daily chores ❤
I am Logan, from the Vancouver Wa area, I am so grateful for my grandmother who years ago gave everyone in my family a basic beginner ukulele. Since then I’ve learned to play and have a uke from the islands with a Kia wood front plate. I love to take my uke to school with me and I play especially at Christmas time, and the smiles are so nice to see!
Hi I’m from the UK and would love to see you tour over here.
I’m grateful for life its self, when we see the conflict in various parts of the world, we need to appreciate what we have.
Cynthia I am so grateful for your encouraging videos and the inspiration I have found to learn the Ukulele! I’ve tried so many instruments but finally found the ability to stick with the ukulele! Trying to learn at 64 is not easy but I love it!! I’m just outside of Wichita, Ks and would love to have you come close to this area! I found a new band I really like called Restless Road and their song Growing Old With You would be beautiful on the ukulele! Thank you for what you do!❤
Hi Cynthia! I’m grateful for my dad who tried teaching me & my brothers ukulele & the guitar. It might not have stuck with all of us, but it laid the groundwork for all of to become musicians. I live in a small town near Kalamazoo, Michigan. The song I would like to learn is Gordon Lighfoot’s Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Hello from Lewisburg, Tennessee..When I first got my ukulele I went to RUclips and found Cynthia . This was the beginning of something great !! Made new friends and now I’m a “Ukulilie “.. that’s the name of our group in Apalachicola Florida. We play at events in that area raising money for local charities. It’s been wonderful! The Ukulilies have been working on “Blue Bayou” by Linda Ronstadt ..we would love to hear you play and sing this .
Thanks Cynthia !
What an exciting offering! When I turned 50 I decided I wanted to learn to play an instrument. I’d tried piano and clarinet in my early years but could not learn to read music. There was a teacher in the school I worked at who taught the kids ukulele. She convinced me I should give it a go. I did and it’s been one of the biggest joys of my life. I’m so grateful to her! I would love to have you come to the Napa Valley! There are some great venues and of course, wine! The song I would love to learn is the Wexford Carol. Thank you for such wonderful offering!
Aloha Cynthia, I am from San Luis Obispo (SLO), California on the Central Coast. I am grateful for my Ohana (family). From my parents who encouraged my love for the mountains, music, and the oceans throughout their lives, to my wife and 2 daughters who not only give me love and support, but listen to (endure?) my ukulele obsession and very mediocre playing (I am probably exaggerating how good I am) in the garage. I am a somewhat long-time subscriber. I would love to have you teach a tutorial on The Ghost In You (Psychedelic Furs) or Takin' It To The Streets (Doobie Bros) - I know you have a secret passion for old rock tunes (i.e., Message In a Bottle, Sweet Child). Keep 'em coming Cynthia and big mahalo and aloha for all the great sessions and lessons you have provided us, your internet Ohana.
I am grateful for my husband who has supported me in my ukulele journey. I am also grateful to Kalei at The Ukulele Site for suggesting your RUclips channel for help while we were on vacation last year. It lead me to becoming a patron this year, and finding the support I needed to keep learning. I ❤ this ukulele community. Please come on tour in Texas. I hope to learn "Dust in the Wind" and "Love me Tender".
Aloha! I'm Betty from southeastern Pennsylvania. I'm grateful for the kind, welcoming, fun-loving, supportive people of the ukulele community. It is wonderful to meet lovely people from all over the world. As retirement approaches I'm hoping to travel and strum in person with fellow uke players. I'm exploring ensemble pieces right now and would love to learn "Eleanor Rigby" (or perhaps an easier song) to play as a group. Thanks for your gentle, calm, teaching, Cynthia. I've learned so much from you and love knowing there is always more!
Hi! I am Mary Anne in Southern California, near Los Angeles. I am grateful for my family and friends, especially their love and support during this difficult year. I am also grateful for Cynthia and the global ukulele comminity for giving me an outlet to be connected, meet so many joyful folks, feed my soul and keep my sanity! I would love to see you at the LA Ukulele Festival again! I’m still trying to play “Here Comes the Sun”!
I'm grateful for my parents who just celebrated their 61st wedding anniversary on December 1st who gave me my 1st stringed instrument. Los Angeles, California Song - Gratitude by Brandon Lake ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Hi, Cynthia! This is Helen Tian living in Atlanta with my family. I’m so grateful to find your channel for it’s the easiest follow to learn for total beginners like me and my daughter. She is autistic and loves any forms of string instrument that can make her calm and happy. I bought a ukulele for her as a toy and show her your 3 little birds video without any expectations. She actually managed to play it. It is amazing🎉 she is now learning LAVA and I’m now practicing and performing Feliz Navidad, my friends don’t believe I haven’t taken lessons besides watching RUclips videos.😂 my wish list is more traditional Christmas songs that I can play the melody without singing. Like silent night holy night. Hark the Harold Angels Sing.
Hello from Boston MA - I live actually a little north of Boston. I just need to say THANK YOU to you as I love love LOVE your videos. I am just learning, for a year now. I practice every day and try so hard to sound like you. Unfortunately, I am far from sounding like you but I try. I can't carry a note and I have not figured out how to strum but I still play along and sing with your videos. You make my day brighter. I am grateful for the senior center in my area that offered beginner uke lessons to a senior and their grandchild. I called the center up and said 'I have no grandchild, no ukulele and can't read music'. They lent me a uke, hooked me up with a grand and gave me the chord on music sheets. I had so much fun learning I wanted more and that is how I found you. I went on line and practiced 3 LITTLE BIRDS. I love your group/duets videos with others. All your play alongs are great but it might be fun to try Shore Town songs, like sailor music. Thank you for being you and giving so much thru the internet.
I am so grateful for your instructive and easy to follow videos. To help keep my brain active at 71, I had always heard that taking up an instrument was a very helpful tool. Your cheerfulness and enthusiasm are so enlightening and fun. I love playing the ukulele, just strumming puts a smile on my face. Thank you for your dedication and encouragement that helps my confidence to grow and widen my knowledge while playing my ukulele. Thanks, Cynthia.
Sharon, let her know your region and what song you would like her to teach :)
Hi Cynthia. I’m grateful for a mountain ⛰ of things.
First, my ears to hear and my healthy fingers to pick and strum. Also, being able to meet and invite you, UkeLenny and Abe in Paris this year while you performed on the peniche on the Seine. I am in Málaga now and it’d be great if you toured Spain. I love Joni’s -River. I’m super grateful for all that you share. Thank you 🙏
lovely to meet you in Paris!!
Merry Christmas to you, Cynthia Linn. I am grateful for you and the Rosco Ukers Ukulele group. You are such an inspiration to me and the entire class (30 of us just started playing together this year). We are located in Roscommon, Michigan. You have mentored us and provided us all with so much assistance in your tutorials and joy & laughter. I would love you to play Brenda Lee's Rocking Around the Christmas Tree next year.
HI Cynthia, I'm Collette (57) from Guernsey in the Channel Islands. Four years ago my son took his life and I had to find a way to keep going for my other children and friends. My three amazing friends, Margy, Annie and Rachel took up my invitation to learn the Ukulele. We had no experience but looked at your videos and decided we would love to learn, (our inspiration to be as good as you haven't quite materialised ha ha ha) but now 2 /12 years on we are still playing, loving it and I can honestly say practising is the best time of my day and our lesson is the ultimate highlight of my week. I am so grateful for the love and loyalty of my three friends who have pulled me through the darkest of times, when I'm missing Jacob music has been my saviour. Thank you for introducing three mature ladies to the joy of Ukulele. I would love to learn Sound of Silence.
Coming to you from Toronto, Canada and I am amongst the thousands of people who started playing the ukulele when covid interrupted all our lives. It was great to use the Cynthia Lin youtube videos to get me started and keep me going during this time. I recently joined the Ukulele Orchestra of Toronto for a completely different experience, playing with different ukulele parts. I also recently played in the Ukulele Wang Dang Doodle on Algonquin Island, part of the Centre Island complex in the Toronto harbour, where I played with other, about 50, and on stage in front of the audience, what an experience. I also made several contacts which I will pursue in the New Year. What a lot to be thankful for! 😃
Hi Cynthia, I'm grateful for the ukulele community and finding so many wonderful people who are so supportive of our musical journeys.
I live in Colorado.
Hi Cynthia. I'm from Maine. I'm grateful for you and the ukulele adventure you take ukulele enthusiasts on every time we tune into your channel. Thank you for sharing the gift of music.
Hi Cynthia! I’m from the growing city of Temecula, Ca. Our wine country community may be new compared to the other amazing wine regions around the world, but because of the passion of our growers and our wonderful family oriented community, we are becoming a place people want to visit. Thank you for all your rad tutorials. The first song I learned was “You are my sunshine.” ☀️I’m grateful for my family & close tribe of friends. When skies are blue, they truly are my sunshine. I couldn’t get through the tough times without them. ❤ A song I’d love to learn is “Amazing Grace.”
Greetings - My name is Audree and I live in Oshkosh Wisconsin. Bought my concert ukulele three years ago and have been a member of the Oshkosh Ukulele Club that meets at the senior center every Wednesday for playing and singing along to a host of different songs. I am also a member of the Oshkosh Area Ukulele Players which is a group of ukesters that play at nursing homes. I belong to Banjo Bill and Kinfolk, a 5 piece group of relatives that play music for the Salvation Army’s red kettle campaign to collect donations to help those in need in our area, and we play at several nursing homes as well. We love sharing our music with others!
Learning to play, (with a yearning to learn so much more), has brought a sense of fulfillment to me. Meeting others that play ukulele has helped me grow new friendships, and to bring happiness to others.
Your teaching methods are wonderful - easy to understand and follow. Thank you so much for all the videos to help us improve playing our instruments!
I deeply appreciate the opportunity to win one of your specially designed ukuleles.
I would like to see some tips on playing Alabama’s Christmas in Dixie.
Thank you again, and keep up the awesome work!
Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year!
Hey Cynthia! I'm grateful that my lil baby is growing happy and healthily 😊😊
I'm from Oslo Norway, so it'll be pretty amazing if you plan on coming!
I would love to learn remember me from the pixar movie coco to sing as a lullaby for my baby boy 🎉❤
that’s a beautiful song suggestion, thank you!
Dear Cynthia, greetings from Frankfurt, Germany. I have attended your U3 session this year here in Frankfurt, together with friends from our Ukulele group. I loved your performance, and jamming away with so many people. It was so much fun and brought joy to our lives. I am grateful that I found the Ukulele as a new hobby during Covid restrictions, while having to stay home alone for such a long time. I am also grateful that my friend Daniela, who has been living on Maui for many years has been lending me her original hawaiian Ukulele, for over 2 years now. I would love to learn The Pogues Fairytale of New York Christmas Song in time for next year`s Christmas.
Hi Cynthia and all of Cynthia's clan! I'm Jacqueline from Colorado and also acquired my first uke during covid to help fight the depression and occupy my brain. Your tutorials were some of my first and I've been hooked on strumming ever since. Piano I have played since I was 5 and stringed instruments were a bit intimidating, but I had always wanted to play. This Monday my mom (on the piano) and I (on the uke) are playing for little local a sing a long. So happy and grateful to be part of these moments. Thank you so much for the encouragement and easy, calm, no-stress pace and vibe of your videos. And I love seeing the comments of everyone else enjoying and having fun on the pathways the music opens up. Keep up the positive waves everyone!!!!
It’s my birthday (really,!). I’m grateful to be alive and to play the ukulele, especially the Cynthia Lin version of Here, There, and Everywhere. Come to Austin to the Austin Uke Society!
Hi, Cynthia. I am super grateful for all of your ukulele tutorials. I have learned so much from you during the past couple years and I absolutely love playing ukulele. It’s one of my favorite things and has gotten me through some rough times. I would love if you came to the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania. Don’t know if you’ve ever heard of Musikfest in Bethlehem, PA, but that would be a pretty cool place for you to come play! I would absolutely love if you could do a tutorial of River by Joni Mitchell. It’s my favorite Christmas song and I love the cover of it that you did a few years ago. So pretty! 💕
Hi Cynthia, This is not cheesy, but I am thankful for you. I took up the Ukelele as a covid project. I have learned more from you than any one. I followed your videos, The Island strum, stand by me, the christmas songbook, and how to change the strings in a ukelele. Once watching your video, I did all three of my ukes. No fear, no problem. So you have taught me and entertained me more than anyone. I live in southern utah and I doubt you would come her, but we are only 100 miles from Las Vegas, so maybe you would come there. Anyway thanks so much for your expertise, and sharing personality. I am a subscriber, and looking for the Ohana channel.
Hello Cynthia. I'm grateful for my first grade class. They bring me such joy when they ask questions and continue to grow emotionally and academically. Their smiles bring me comfort that the day is going to be great. We face challenges but we get through them because we are Ohana. I'm grateful that we share the same joy in playing our classroom ukuleles, which bring calm to our hearts. It's one student who told me playing ukulele calms his frustration. I reside in Southern California and I'd like to learn to play E Huli Makou.
Hi Cynthia, This is a wonderful idea! Thank you for offering it! I am graceful for a wonderful family including my 90 + year old parents, my children & their spouses and my siblings all of whom have a great love of music! I live in Austin Texas and we would love to have you come to Texas, enjoy some great TexMex Food and attend one of our Austin Ukulele Society Meetings! We meet once a month and are led by some amazing Ukulele players! Anyone of all playing levels attend and often we have over 130 players together, learning, strumming, singing and having a great time! I would love to hear you play and sing Feeling Groovy. It's an oldie but a goodie that always make me smile! Thank you so much for sharing your gift of music! Keep on strumming!
Hi Cynthia. I'm grateful for your weekly voice lessons, where I learn so much about my voice and about myself in general. I live in central Germany and would love to see you again in Frankfurt or somewhere nearby. It would be great to learn a German song. You once talked about 99 red baloons, so why not give it a try.
hi Daniela! ok please keep reminding me about 99 Red Balloons. wonderful to see you every week in voice class, and to see you in person this past summer!
Hi Cynthia. 1. I am super grateful for enjoying your concerts in Tokyo and participating in the workshop as well. I am a slow learner, however, it is the best thing that ever happened to me is I came across your lessons on Patreon. 2. I am leaving this comment from Tokyo. 3. Any songs sung by Adele. Thank you!
hi atsuko!! happy i got to meet you in tokyo!!
I live in Sarasota Florida. I have been playing for about 18 months. I am grateful for your 2023 100 day challenge because it really motivated me to practice a lot! I bought an Ohana CL concert ukulele because I heard someone playing it in a challenge song. It has an amazing sound. I would love a tenor size. I am grateful for all the generous ukulele teachers and for this community. It is so friendly and supportive.
A song I’d like to learn is Catch the Wind by Donovan. Happy holidays to everyone!
Hello from Newcastle NSW. IT IS Saturday 5.08pm and it’s a scorching 39c degrees. I am grateful for the whole ukulele community and the opportunity to share music. Wonderful Tonight. Looking forward to the live stream.
Thanks for offering this, Cynthia! I am grateful for my ukulele club, in Fayetteville NC. (I live a little south of there, in Lumberton) This little instrument has given me a new circle of friends and something to look forward to every week when we meet. As well, my husband is playing along with me, so we have something to share, practicing at home. I've only been playing a bit over a year, but I've played with my group at churches, libraries and local festivals. At 70-ish, it's wonderful to be able to still contribute! I'd love to hear you play and teach us "Scarlet Ribbons". It's an old song that I sang as a child. I loved the Harry Belefonte version.
I wanna join the club, I live in Rockingham like an hour away from Fayetteville
Scarlet ribbon I never heard that, thanks
Aloha Cynthia and team! This will sound unimaginative, but I'm grateful for my health. I've had several medical challenges this year - some which even prevent me from playing the 'ukulele - but I'm purposeful about getting stronger and healthier, and I'm back playing the 'ukulele at a nursing home every month. Although the seniors think I'm playing a small guitar (or a violin LOL!), we have fun and the 'ukulele spreads joy and aloha! I live in San Diego, so come visit!! What song do I want to learn? Blackbird (which you've done a tutorial on already), and Joni Mitchell's River (which I have your cover), or anything else from Joni's Blue album! A big Mahalo to you and Ohana!
I am grateful for my new healthy grand baby . I’m from Tennessee . And I would LOVE for you to find this old crazy song that my grandmother in law played…. H”Has anybody seen my kitty, has anybody seen my cat”!!!! She used to play it with gusto and much laughter at Christmas , and she’s the reason I started learning the uke.
Thank you so much for all your wonderful content. It has helped me so much !
Thank you for offering this. I am grateful for my husband, my family and my ukulele family. We recently played at a nursing home and we played several of your songs that I downloaded last Christmas.
We had many residents singing along and playing shakers, jingle bells and other small percussion instruments. even the ones with memory issues were able to join in on many songs. I live in Northwestern Vermont, where we currently have snow! I would like to learn to play more Beatle songs and George Harrisons song, Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth).
HI Cynthia, You have inspired me and I have been working all along to improve my Ukulele skills. I am thankful for you, for Ukulenny, and to my wonderful friend Kris, who I met in Maui, and we are still face timing our practice times, with your music, after several years. As a retired educator, I respect your style of teaching for all students. I am thankful for the many people who have been there to help me progress. It’s been fun being a left handed strummer, and trying to transpose all the notes. I have tried to do the 100 days, for 2 years, and I hope that this next year will be the one I complete it! I love playing, even though I am a want to be rather than a very skilled player.
Hi Cynthia. I'm very grateful that I discovered you 4 years ago. I don't think I would have come as far as I have playing the ukulele. I am from Hickory NC and would love to see you at one of our festivals. The song I would like to learn is Aquamarine. Thank you so much for being an inspiration for so many people.❤
hi tiff! thanks for being a regular at 5@5, and for requesting my original song! i did teach it to the Patrons a while back, but i have been meaning to post a YT tutorial as well!
Heck yeah another fan from NC! I’m from Rockingham
Greetings! I am thankful for my family. It has been a hard year for me. I have made it through thanks to the love and support of my family. I am so lucky to have them. I recently moved to Rio Rancho, New Mexico. I have been a fan of Cynthia's for five years. I began watching when I lived in Taiwan. I accompanied my students while they were learning songs in English. The song I would like to learn You Are My Everything from the Kdrama Descendants of the Sun sung by Gummie. She sings it in both Korean and English.
I'm grateful for the magic of the ukulele! It has the power to bring the joy of playing a wonderful instrument, both accessible and complex. It has the power to inspire people to pass on this passion, to discover music through this object, to bring people together and create an international community full of good vibes! I don't know of any other instrument that does this. I took the plunge a little by chance, and now I teach friends and acquaintances, and we encourage each other on our musical journey and share wonderful moments! I'm French and live in Geneva, Switzerland. I'm trying to play If I can dream, Maneskin's version for the Elvis film, as faithfully as possible. But I would also LOVE the 3rd part of Stairway to heaven
I love the ukulele and I am grateful for my lessons with Cynthia Lin. I am from Quebec, Canada and I would love to learn the song Daniel by Elton John in memory of my uncle. Thank you!
That is a great one! Would love to see it, too. ❤
Hello Cynthia and team. Thank you for all you do! I'm in Englewood, Florida. We have a huge ukulele community here and that's been wonderful. Come to the Sarasota area and perform. You'll have a huge, enthusiastic audience for sure!
What I'm very grateful for is my supportive husband. Since I've taken up ukulele and learned (of course through Cynthia's videos) to play, he's played ukulele with me. He used to play the banjo, so the uke has been easy for him. Together we've worked out some harmonizing. We've performed at assisted living facilities and at parties. It's been great fun and something we can do together as we both love music and actually met through singing. I was in Sweet Adeline's and he was in barbershop. So thankful for such a loving, supportive husband!!!
A song I would love to learn is "It's the Girl" performed by Bette Midler on her "It's the Girls" album. There is also a very old recording by the Boswell Sisters, 1931.
Thanks!
I'm a bit south from you in Fort Myers! Are you part of the SandFleas Ukulele group?
I’m in Sarasota and have been playing with LWR Aloha Ukulele! Haven’t made it to sand fleas YET. I will.
I went to the LWR Ukulele event last February! Can't wait until the next one! Going to try and get up to the SandFleas one Monday in January when everything quiets down! 🙂@@loriglass1
Hi Cynthia,
Happy Holidays! I am very grateful for my Ohana. Every day is a new beginning and a gift to be alive for another day in the vertical position! At almost 61 this month. I am so greatful for my wife, Children, Grandkids, friends, and extended family. We just hit 39 year my wife and I.
I started playing ukulele, self- thought, roughly three years ago off Two Smeger ukes I bought off Amazon. We are just now settling into a House on Oahu and received our House hold goods from South Korea yesterday. My ukes have arrived, and still in toon.
I am a great Izz fan so I would like to learn another song he plays besides "Some where over the rainbow.. What a wonderful life" I have that song down pat.
Thank you for all that you do! Mahalo!
Respectful,
Robert S.
pearl City, Hi
Bonjour! Hello Cynthia, My name is Mélanie and I live in Canada. I am grateful for my wonderful family. I also feel grateful for the passion for music that I share with my daughter, which pushed me to pick up my instrument again after a few years without playing. I discovered your channel and since then I have been doing tutorials and practicing play-alongs and I have regained my taste for music. I play between 1-2 hours a day. On the weekends, I bring my ukulele to a friend's house and my daughter sings and everyone has a good time. For Christmas, we will be in charge of hosting the evening and we will make songs to bring joy to this party. Thanks Cynthia! I wish you and your family Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! ❤
Hi Cynthia, I'm Patrice from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I bought myself a ukulele for my 70th birthday and within a month mastered simple Christmas favourites, one of which was your Feliz Navidad. I am grateful to have been able to suprise my family (especially my grandson) and play carols on my ukelele during our family Christmas last year. It was our first Christmas together after five years due to the pandemic. I would love to learn how to play O Holy Night.
Keep playing my sister
@@GHOST-LEPER Yes, defintely! Thanks for the encouragement
@@patricevalerio1703 anytime! Maybe if we all keep going we will all be as good as Cynthia lol
Hi Cynthia, I am so grateful for this community, and your tutorials. Your teaching style is so easy to learn from and calming. I have learned so much. I am in North Texas, which is land locked!! I would love to learn tabs for Tears from Heavan from Eric Clapton or Can't Find My Way Home. I love those songs and think they would be amazing on the Ukulele. ALOHA!
Eric Clapton would be great!!!!
Hi, I'm Terry, and I'm grateful for sunshine. I live in a suburb of St. Paul, MN where the sun shines less and less during the winter months, so I get my sunshine from family, music, Christmas cheer, the ukulele, friends, cooking, and more! Cynthia, I love your songsheets; they're so clear and concise! I'd love to see/hear you teach "Haole Hula!" Mahalo!
Hi Cynthia, found you when I had my grand-daughters. They are hooked and I'm so grateful for your techniques and your lessons. Thanks so much for everything, we did down load the free holiday song book. I'm near the Ontario - Quebec border here in Canada, just so you know tomorrow at our family Xmas party two of my grand-daughters are playing Last Christmas, all thanks to you! I've been to Hawaii once in my life, loved it, but here in Québec, lots of snow, cold but the spirit of Christmas is alive and well in our home because of family, friends and music! Thank you and wishing you the very best this Holiday Season.
I'm grateful to everyone who came out to strum at our inaugural Aloha Christmas! Sing-along today at Tenth Church in Vancouver, BC, where we put the Cynthia Lin Holiday songbook to good use. And thanks to Ukulenny for sitting in with our Historic Joy Kogawa House strumming circle this summer. We hope to see U3 come back to Vancouver. I'd love to learn some Erasure, perhaps A Little Respect or Hallowed Ground.
ooh great suggestions, and congrats on your inaugural sing-along!
Hi Cynthia!
I'm grateful for your Daily Stretches video. I've just started playing the ukulele in the past couple of months, but I've been an artist my whole life. That video's helped my hands and wrists feel so much better, and helped me identify some problem areas and spots that cramp easily.
I live in Chicago, IL. As for a song, this may sound odd but I'd love to see a version of Symphony in C by CAKE on the ukulele. It sounds like it'd be a lot of fun for fingerpicking!
Hi, everyone! I am grateful for the opportunity to have met so many people on line playing ukulele in virtual jams. I live in the beautiful upper Hudson River Valley in New York. I want to learn to play Solsbury Hill. It has an unusual 7/4 timing and am trying to get that timing down on uke. Love to you all!❤
Aloha, Cynthia!! This is Nicole Lasswell living in the Dallas/Fort Worth area in Texas. I’m originally from Puerto Rico, so music has always been near and dear to my heart, but I always wanted to learn to play an instrument. Your beautiful lessons on RUclips actually inspired me to buy my first ukulele, and then I needed to know more about music. So then I got a piano, piano lessons, and then enrolled into our local county college’s music program to learn music theory, and sight singing and ear training. Now I’m composing songs and helping my own child with his learning of a music instrument, the saxophone. Needless to say, I am DEEPLY GRATEFUL for your presence on this planet and what you share with all of us. It’s opened up a whole world that I did not know was available to me. My life is so much more fun and joyful. So thank you! I would love to learn a different strum pattern and I’m interested in what you would use for something like “Please come home for Christmas”. I’ve been using Guitar Tabs, but I like your arrangements! Looking forward to seeing you on the 9th!!! Love and light to all! 💖🙏🏼
Hello Cynthia, I am thankful for you and all the Ukulele community that post videos. It’s so refreshing to see positive people on the internet sharing their love for this instrument. Atlanta Georgia definitely needs to see more Ukulele. I am a huge fan of Mark Knopfler’s song writing and lyrics and think Heart of Oak would be a very nice song to play. Good luck to everyone.
Hi I love mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou Harris " Love and Happiness" Pam From Commerce, Michigan
Hiya Cynthia! It's been a while since I've watched your videos from all the way back in eighth grade back in 2016 when I first started learning how to play the ukulele with your videos and the ukulele teacher's videos (three little birds, riptide, how to tune and especially La Vei En Rose.) 'Till now, I'm still playing the ukulele for my friends and family. I'd like to join the giveaway so here's my entry:
I'm grateful for my best friend. Third year of uni has been really stressful and I'm grateful that she's stuck by me to always cheer me up everytime that I've thought I've failed my exam. Going to frozen yogurt places to calm down and just talk about life with here has been a blessing.
I moved from Queensland to New South Wales, Sydney, 3 years ago for university, and while things are wilder than the rural town that I was in, I'm loving it all! Would love for you all to come so we could all have a ukulele jam session!
I'd like to learn a harder version of La Vei En Rose (maybe a fingerpicking version) as I really love that song~
That's it for me, I'll be tuning in on the livestream next week with my trusty ol' ukulele haha!
gday! i will likely visit Sydney again soon, maybe you and your friend would be able to come jam! thanks for your suggestion, i think a more advanced version of La Vie would be nice to share, i’ll keep it in mind!
Aloha! It's David from the UK. I has the pleasure of seeing you, Lenny & Abe at the Half Moon pub in Putney, London this year, but would love to see you again! I'm grateful for the pleasure the ukulele brings me, it's a real joy-booster. I took the step to join a Ukulele club this year - it's great to play with a group of like-minded people and even performed two solos, Hotel California by the Eagles and Someone you Loved by Lewis Capaldi in our open mic sessions. Lewis has some lovely songs and arrangements that would be great for the ukulele. Happy Holidays everyone!
Hello from Belfast Maine! I’m Libby Catania and I’m so grateful that I have the safety and leisure time to learn to play an instrument. And I’m super grateful that I found Cynthia’s tutorials. Your teaching is helping me find my inner musician, who has been napping for 52 years 😊 I would like to learn Michael Franti tunes - Good day for a good day, say hey, life is amazing when it sucks… really anything! Abundant blessings to you and yours!
I'm grateful to be connected with the ukulele community! What an amazing group of people. And grateful for what you do, Cynthia. I'm in then Central Valley of California. I love learning jazzy versions of Christmas song, so I hope you'll add more lessons like this.
Happy Holidays Cynthia! I am in Portland, Oregon. I am grateful for my circle of friends who were so kind to help me learn to play ukulele by forming a little private group: Super Secret Ukulele Sisters. There's nothing better than playing and singing with supportive friends (we often watch your youtube tutorials together) ❤🎶
I would love to learn, and hear you play Joni Mitchell's "River". Thanks for all you do for the greater ukulele community! Aloha!
Hi Cynthia! Greetings from New York! Thank you so much for this offer! I love your music! I am grateful for music and family time. I learned ukulele from your channel. I started playing a couple of years ago during my recovery after I lost a baby and a major surgery :'( Your music has helped me stay alive. During covid lockdowns, my children and I had a zoom "mini Christmas concert" singing and playing along your holiday song book for my families. It was really fun. Now my 12-year-old daughter is playing the ukulele, too. I just emailed her your holiday songbook today. I hope she enjoys playing as much as I do. Happy holidays!
Grateful for my friends that helped me during COVID times and took the ukulele as my Zen time. Learned through COVID times trying to make music and pass time enjoying with friends ❤
I have always loved all genres of music and wished I could play an instrument! Five years ago, my local library started a weekly ukulele program:) This has been life changing for me~our group of total novices, many of us with no background in music, have all grown together, and just last Sat played at the Holiday party for adults with special needs here at our church. Cynthia, I have turned to your amazing instruction countless number of times through the years for guidance and inspiration, as well as the monthly lessons on Patreon!
I live in Hampton Bays, Long Island, NY, about 90 minutes from New York City, and there is a venue in Huntington NY called the Paramount as well! I love the variety of song choices you have covered each month over the past few years, especially the Hawaiian tunes that are new to me! I think you’ve already covered it, but a simplified version of Girl from Impanema would be amazing!! 🌺❤️
I'm from Roanoke VA and I'm greatful for Cynthia. Her beginner videos taught me to play back in 2020 and I love the sheet music and tutorials she provides. I've been practicing on Ripple by the Greatful Dead and With a Girl Like You by The Troggs and it would be cool to hear Cynthia's arrangement. Thanks for everything.
Hi Cynthia,we have been following you for over 4 years. We are grateful for your beginner ukulele workshop you held in the Bay Area back then. We are now in Payson, Az and play in a uke group every Tuesday at our library. We are an hour away from Phoenix and would love to see you again. My favorite songs is hard to name but I’ll say Fly Me To The Moon. Aloha and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Hi Cynthia! We're from the US, but living in Taiwan! This time of year I'm especially thankful for my savior for coming to our world as a baby for us. I'm thankful for my family and also that I can pass along what I've learned (mostly from you!) and teach a little ukulele elective course at school with my middle schoolers. I'd love any song by Over the Rhine. :)
Hi Cynthia, I’m Jan and I’m grateful for all of the ukulele tutors on RUclips for encouraging us all to play. I’m from Daventry in England and did meet you at GNUF this year! I’d like a tutorial on ‘All I really wanna do’ by Cher please.
Hello Cynthia! My name is Felicia Logsdon and I am from Kentucky. I am most grateful for my kids and their love for learning music! We have all got into playing ukulele this past year and it’s been the greatest blessing! I would love to see you play and maybe teach “Twelfth Street Rag”. Thank you!❤️
YOOOO Kentucky!!! My moms side of the family is from Kentucky and they are all crazy in the best way, my grandma has the Kentucky mountain magic lol she can “blow fire” like when you burn your hand she says a secret Christian prayer and blows on the burn and it stops hurting almost instantly! Merry Christmas
Hi Cynthia!!! I am so grateful for my 15 year old son......the best thing I ever did! I am from Portland, Oregon. I started learning the ukelele during covid, it was so much fun and I continue to learn more and more songs still today. I often search and try to find anything from the Red Hot Chili Peppers ;). I think Soul to Squeeze from them would be fun to learn. Thank you for all the sharing you have done and I am grateful for all the songs I learned with you as well!!!
Greetings from Santa Cruz, CA. I am grateful to our Uke community here. Thank you, Cynthia for all you do for the Ukulele community, especially us beginners. Happy Holiday to you and all Uke players out there.
