I’m visiting Hawaii for the holidays. I secretly bought a ukulele and started learning how to play. I wanted to surprise my girlfriend. I learned this song with your help, and I asked her to marry me after I played it. She said yes!! Your channel basically taught me everything I know. Thank you so much!
Except I'm such a noob that even changing chords quickly enough and just getting the strumming pattern is hard for me, nevermind adding singing to the mix, lol. 😂
Just picked up my first Ukulele, and in two hours, I'm so impressed with how enjoyable this experience was. Thank you so much. I can't wait to keep learning from you.
Hi, I'm 10 and just got a ukulele for Christmas! I have been interested in this beautiful instrument for a while now! Thank you for helping me learn this song!
i started playing this because i had to learn it for music then i begged (asked) my parents to get me one. this is the first song i learned to play and i learned it from you! thank you! have a good night/morning/afternoon
Thank you very much for this tutorial. I am an absolute beginner, and I bought a ukulele for my boyfriend as a birthday gift (he never played ukulele, but he plays the cello and guitar), so now while he is not home I am practicing this song in secret for an extra surprise! I am focusing only on the chorus because it's still too much for me to learn, but I am having lots of fun! I have been watching many of your videos and they have been super helpful (specially for choosing and buying the ukulele). Keep up the great work! Greetings from Portugal!
This is the best tutorial video i have ever seen. i I usually have a hard time memorizing songs, but the way you layed everythimg out was easy to follow. you are a gifted teacher thank you.
Thank you for helping me to learn this song! I got my ukulele about a month ago and I'm still very bad at it. This helped me lean my first song! Much love from Russia.
I love this tutorial so much! It’s awesome. One thing I’ve started doing is replacing the f chords in this section (7:16 - 7:51) with Am chords to make the section sound more sad. I thought I would share in case anyone wants to try this!
I just picked up the ukulele two days ago and I was looking through a bunch of youtube videos to learn how to play it, and this really was very helpful and easy to follow along! I've had some string instrument experience before (viola) and I also play saxophone so I guess it was easy for me to pick up the ukulele because thankfully I have music experience, but this was a MEGA help I loved this video
Thank you for doing this for us. The only thing is it moves from a slower strum to a MUCH quicker one way quickly. I think it would have been better to do the entire song (singing too) with the slower rhythm first, then increase in speed for the finale.
Note to self (or anyone 😊): C chord- finger three on 3rd feet of A G7- finger 1 on 1st fret on E, finger 2 and 3 on 2nd fret of the C and A string F- finger 1 on 1st fret on E, finger 2 on 2nd fret of the G string Verses: C four strums G7 four strums F four strums C two strums G7 four strums Choruses: F four C four G7 four C four F four C four F one G7 two C four
Hi, I am a bit of a late comer here for this tutorial. I must say this was absolutely wonderful and I loved your performance, your vocals and ukulele playing were delightful and a sheer joy to listen to. Thank you for making this super fun video. I have already started learning it so I can perform it for family and friends in the near future. I also wanted to bring to your attention is that there is a small lyric error you have in this video. At the very beginning of the song in the second line you sing and write it as "He sat high above his bed watching all the couples play..." but the correct line is: He sat high above his BAY watching all the couples play. So there is a rhyme scheme present in every line throughout the song and bed doesn't rhyme with play.
thank you sm. im 12 and i just got my ukelele like 5 hours ago, im going to do this song to surprise my mom tomorow because she loves this song. this is the best ukelele tutorial ive seen right now!
You’re not alone. Many people are in the same boat as you are right now. Don’t give up. The more and more familiar you are with the song, the easier the singing becomes. I couldn’t sing and play at the same time to save my life when I first started 😂. I have made a video about singing and playing, and I’ll link it. I hope it helps. In the meantime, be patient and focus on your progress and not perfection. Everyone starts somewhere, and the fact that you’re starting and trying is amazing.

@@OneMusicSchool omg thank you so much!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Edit: btw you are a very good teacher! I just bought uke today and this is the first song i tried to learn and i get it quickly because of the way you taught it. Thank you so much!
Wow, you are so good. Anyways, this is what I learned after watching this video: This is NOT as easy as what you make it look like. Also, after watching this repeatedly, I finally kinda got it and started sounding good, though, since I was in my grandparents’ room, my grandma got super annoyed and ran out of the room, shutting the door, screaming.
THANK YOU, and I really mean it! I've tried apps like yousician and just tried to learn how to play the ukulele on my own, but none of it made sense but when you put it like this it really makes sense to me now! Thank you so much!!
Your my fav ukulele instructor on RUclips You make it very easy to learn with your pictures of notes and easy strumming following Thank you If you could do an easy no woman no cry or any easy bob Marley song for ukulele please ?
I just want to say thank you so much, thank you 100000 times over and over again. This tutorial was perfect for me. You explained it perfectly and it was super easy for me to follow along. (Although the strumming took me a minute to get the hang of haha)
Goshhhh I love you! I took an ukulele for the first time, I dreamed of playing lava and with you and this tutorial I made it for the first step pp, that's amazing, weeeeeeelllll done 👍👍❤️👍❤️❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍
So many things about this tutorial that make it better than every other tutorial for any song I've seen so far. For example, she names the strings and fingers instead of numbering them, so we beginners don't have to try keeping track of finger number, fret number, and string number. Then she not only shows us how to finger the chords, she explains a simple method to transition from one to another.
One Music School, your tutorials are great and your voice is beautiful. I lived there 3 yrs. Unfortunately the Marine Corp had other places they wanted me to see. Lol
Here's a little tip: the island strumming pattern works REALLY well to but only if you are singing too bc it doesn't match the actual one. Also, I thought that a C7 chord in the chorus works well for me in the end not just the regular C. Hope that helps a bit🙃
Anybody else here because you want to figure out how to play the song because you’re on an online ukulele class which you didn’t really want to choose but it was the only option so you had to take that and you have to learn this song and perform it live in front of all of your classmates but still in general just really bad at ukulele and then you have a break down and start crying. Same
Could you do a tutorial of hostage by Billie Eilish on the guitar and maybe Alcatraz by Oliver riot? (Not many people know that song but I love it so much)

Strumming and singing together is hard lol. It’s like you are doing good on the hand, and forgot the lyrics , and vice versa 🤣
yes exactly
Happy to see I am not the only one😅
So true 🙈
Except I'm such a noob that even changing chords quickly enough and just getting the strumming pattern is hard for me, nevermind adding singing to the mix, lol. 😂
@@amygirouard3271 changing chords is hard. my fingers are just not fast enough.
I tried and I realized it wasn't as easy as she makes me believe :(
Just picked up my first Ukulele, and in two hours, I'm so impressed with how enjoyable this experience was. Thank you so much. I can't wait to keep learning from you.

As an adult, my eyes got a bit watery even during this tutorial. I can just blame allergies, right? :)

I had to perform for school with my ukulele and I played this song with your help! Everyone loved it. Thank You! ❤

This is one of my dad’s favorite Pixar shorts! I want to play it for him :)

You are an amazing teacher as I have just started so thank you so much you are amazing thank you 🙏
Anyone learned the strumming already but when you try to sing along its gone again. :(((
I just wanna play it and sing a long. Why cant i do both? :(
You’re not alone. Many people are in the same boat as you are right now. Don’t give up. The more and more familiar you are with the song, the easier the singing becomes.

Edit: btw you are a very good teacher! I just bought uke today and this is the first song i tried to learn and i get it quickly because of the way you taught it. Thank you so much!
I know what you mean singing and playing an instrument at a time can get on your nerves.. Well at least for me it does.
Wow, you are so good.
Anyways, this is what I learned after watching this video: This is NOT as easy as what you make it look like.
Also, after watching this repeatedly, I finally kinda got it and started sounding good, though, since I was in my grandparents’ room, my grandma got super annoyed and ran out of the room, shutting the door, screaming.

*i just learned i did g7 wrong the whole time now I have to train my fingers to go from c to g7 the right way*
*sad face*
Omg same I always had my finger on the 3rd fret like a c instead of the 2nd
someone taught me the wrong strumming patterns and now i’m used to tht but i have to learn the right way now😐
Great job! I didn't even know that song, but it sounds amazing 😊

Best tutorial 😭❤️
So I found this really cute song “You’re in my head like a catchy song” from my little pony... could you do a tutorial on that with ukulele?
I love it! It’s so helpful!

THIS HELPED SO MUUUUCH!!!!💕💕
Please do dababy rockstar!!! You are amazing at teaching
You can also change the strum pattern to the Island strum pattern(down-down-up-up-down) to spice things up a bit!! 🔥🔥
this really helped!!!!!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does the strumming pattern D DUDUD DUDUD DU work for this song
Absolutely 😀. Use the pattern that works neat for you. Thanks for watching.
My name is Katie too !!
😁 this song is so fun to play. Makes me miss the Islands. Thank you
How long did you live there? Thanks so much for watching :). I really appreciate it.
One Music School, your tutorials are great and your voice is beautiful. I lived there 3 yrs. Unfortunately the Marine Corp had other places they wanted me to see. Lol
Wow, thank you for serving our country. I'm so grateful. What a beautiful place to live and have that kind of experience.
One Music School Thank you yes its very beautiful and it made it extra special having Ohana that lives there so I go back from time to time.
I'll get there one day, but I have a feeling that I won't want to leave.
Here's a little tip: the island strumming pattern works REALLY well to but only if you are singing too bc it doesn't match the actual one. Also, I thought that a C7 chord in the chorus works well for me in the end not just the regular C. Hope that helps a bit🙃
Sure, you can play it however you’d like 😀. Thanks for watching.
yes Marlowe #bored in quarantine lols

I do like that song, but I have Ocean Eyes filmed and ready to edit :). I hope you like that one in the meantime.
