I know, that’s the most amazing thing about RUclips. I learned how to mod ipods here on RUclips, now I will be trying to learn at least some basics about ukulele.
If you are under quaranteen, I wish you the best of health, but if you have an instrument to play, that is a great way to give you something positive to do.
I'm a 60 year old teacher/new grandmother who bought my first Uke just so I could sing Happy Birthday and a few simple songs to my students and granddaughter. So happy to hav found you!!!!
My ukulele was untouched and covered in dust for 2 years. I found your channel the other day and now I can’t put it down. BIG THANK YOU!! After I master the ukulele, I can try my guitar that has been there nearly ten years haha. YOU are my sunshine. X
I have always wanted to learn an instrument but was deterred by poor family circumstances. I am 34 now and I found a yaymaker ukulele at a thrift store the other day for 7 bucks and bought it. And then I found this awesome lesson channel and learning these 3 chords tonight made me smile soo big and really want to learn. Thank you for putting these up.
How is your ukulele learning going? I’m 66 and my ukulele comes tomorrow! I’ve been playing the piano for four years now, but want to give the ukulele a try. Well, I hope it’s been fun…
Good for you! I admire your decision-music is the best friend anyone can ask for. I’ve been an amateur musician for 40/years and I am always happy when I hear of people even older than myself who start learning an instrument. It’s the best thing for the mind and the soul! Good luck to you!
@mandatory1561 I'm so sorry for your loss, and I'm so happy your looking for peace! , I just want you to know Jesus Christ is calling you, and if you follow him, it'll give you eternal peace. Jesus loves you 🤍
@@123ftw1 ah practice songs that you like and sing around. You'll enjoy. Maybe join an app called Starmaker and you can sing in live chat lounge. It's fun!
It's all good! Nobody knows in the beginning. This 10 day course should get you to know enough to learn any songs you want to learn! Any further questions ask away and I will make more ukulele videos :)
I literally went like “Oooh, ukuleles sound cool, i want one!” So i got one for christmas, and here i am, in almost in the middle of the year, and literally cant play it at all
@@jugzapanta7160 Yeah haha.. But if you're not as lazy as me, you can actually look up tutorials and get learning! I really recommend doing so, but I've never even tried.
This is wild: i never intended to learn Ukulele. But was walking home and a neighbour put a Ukulele on the sidewalk with a note saying: for free. So i picked it up. Found this video. And since you are a motivating teacher i am hooked. All within an hour!
Haha! Same here, wanted to learn sth new, so yesterday I decided to go for a Ukulele. Order placed late last night, now I'm all excited for the delivery.
OMG OMG OMG OMG! I got my ukulele 2 days back and I chose this video to get started and i was really agitated first but continued to work. Using the sunshine song and then playing the chords only and trying to work on faster transition. And I can play the sunshine song and just tried happy birthday too and I can do it in acceptable form!! I have a long way to go but am so glad i can do it! Practice does make you the best. Phewwww. Thanks for this! All uke beginners, keep at it! We can do itttt! 😌🤞✌️👏☺️🥰🎸✨
Hi Andy! I am a music teacher and I am learning the uke before I teach it to my students starting October. I love your manner and you do a great job explaining and demonstrating. Thank you!!
I have looked at so many tutorials for songs and even downloaded a couple of apps. This is by far the easiest and best lesson and tutorial I have seen and I learnt you are my sunshine for the first time properly. Thanks so much.
My girlfriend sang the song “you’re my sunshine” to me after watching your lessen for ukulele:) She’s started to learn how to play Ukulele from last night:) Thanks for the lessen. It was absolutely awesome !!! From Japan.
Man the self isolation ukulele playing train has a lot of passengers, huh? Well make room for one more!! Big thanks for the tutorial. Spent a couple of days learning my way around my uke (you know I'm serious about playing it, I called it a uke).
I'd try swapping where your 1st and 2nd finger are - that's how I've always played G and found his way slightly more difficult. It's whatever feel most comfortable for your hands, I suppose :D
i’m a violinist trying to learn ukulele i’m quarantine and i am pleasantly surprised how easy it is for my brain to switch certain rules from one instrument to another. this video is great, thanks for making my pandemic life a little brighter
I'm just some rando online, this brought a tear to my eye. I really do feel for you. I think it is a lovely thing to do, I sincerely hope that you gave it a crack.
absolutely wonderful! Makes you feel like you've really accomplished something. mind you, the 18 minute video took me almost an hour to complete with all of the stops, starts, practices and re-dos, but boy, do I feel like I really learned something, and now I can play "You are my Sunshine" You are a great teacher! Thank you for taking the time for doing these videos. Can't wait to go from here!
Thank you so much Andy. I recently lost my dad and he left me a ukulele. Your song choices at the end (lean on me, amazing grace) were songs we sang together before he passed. ❤ You’re a saint for the free classes I can’t thank you enough.
It’s my birthday today. I’ve received a ukulele! Going to learn in lockdown. Lost count of the number of times I’ve paused parts of Day 1 😆. Really enjoying your tutorials Andy. Thank you. 😀
such a pleasing instructor with the perfect pace, not too fast or slow. Really good job and thank you so much! Bought a ukelele today to make quarantine better! :)
Struggling to even finds words to explain how happy I am that I found this! You’re an amazing teacher. I already made it to day 2 and learned my first 4 chords. THANK YOU!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is great video and all but I literally got to F major and started crying because it's been 15 minutes and I still can't get my short fat fingers to properly hold down the strings.
Best ukulele tutorial ever. You had me playing and singing along within ten minutes without having ever touched a ukulele before. In ten days, I'll be driving my neighbors crazy every single evening :-D
TheLast RippeR I have added a few more chords and keep practicing the shifts between chords. Have started composing little tunes and lyrics that I can impress my husband and friends with. Loving it 😃 Thanks for asking!
I love how he teaches how to play ukulele, step by step. I wished I had seen his videos when I was a beginner in playing guitar, I can feel his patience and care while he teaches. I love it.
This was such a fun lesson and easy to understand. I’ve always wanted to be a musician and bought my kids some toy ukeleles but found myself playing with them more than my kids. I decided to buy my own and I love it. It’s so relaxing. Gonna practice these chords for the next few days.
I'm a recently retired teacher looking for new learning. This is my favorite song (You are my sunshine)to sing to my grandkids (who are already learning ukelele) so I am very happy to join in!
Great lesson! I haven’t played the ukulele since I was ten years old. I got a new ukulele yesterday. I’m now 64 years old. I just finished the first lesson. It all came back to me. I’m feeling very successful 🏆. Now, on to the next lesson! (And lots of practice.) Thank you.
I’m leaving this comment to motivate myself to learn how to play on ukulele 😇 I already tried by choosing a really hard song, but I failed, so decided to find a tutorial for beginners. I will update my progress every few days 🤓 Day 1 - starting from scratch. Never played on any instruments. Wish me luck 😅🤣
First time trying and I'm absolutely embarrasingly awful, I have such a difficulty thinking about several things at the same time but in the end it actually got bit better, perhaps if I practice this video several times for some weeks, until I feel confident playing this song. You're a great teacher.
I started playing at the start of 2023 and I learned how to play ukelele thanks to you and it's one of the things I enjoy doing most now and I can not thank you enough I watched the entire course and I will pick your tutorials if I feel like playing more instruments in the future. Now I am going to proceed to like the entire course.
Thanks for watching guys! Let me know what NEW uke videos you would like, or anything I can do to help all of you guys learning to play during self isolating ✌ Wishing you all peace and health 🎸
so I was tuning it and it seems like mine is dgbe version what does that mea and can I still follow along w this video bc when I play it sounds different
This video got my daughter and I playing 2 songs within an hour. It is our second day playing a Ukulele. Thanks so much for all your work in putting this together! Looking forward to watching and learning with the rest of your lessons
I am going to have to watch this over and over and over again, after my finger tips have feeling in them again. Andy sure does make it easy to follow along with. Thanks Andy for putting these out!
My boyfriend just gave me a ukulele as a Christmas present (merry Christmas to all btw) and I'm really glad I found your videos. I wanna play a song to him on his bday in February.
Adryana Diniz Same! My entire family is kinda sharing a ukulele but I’m the one who uses it the most. Already starting to get callouses by how hard I’m pressing on the strings
After years and years of procrastinating, I finally ordered myself an ukulele and got it today. Stumbled across your channel and I enjoyed your session. Thank you for putting up your free 10 day course for us to learn on RUclips. Hope you're having an awesome. Meanwhile, I'll go practice some more. Thanks again. -Jan
Thank you so much! 1st time to handle may daughters ukelele.. my mom gave ot for her 3rd birthday.. your video make it so easy... I already subscribed and praying to play for God's glory with my daughter.. 💝🥰🙏☝️☝️☝️✨ Thank you and Godbless!
I just received a Uke for Christmas. I’m looking forward to playing it and learning from you. The lessons seem straightforward and manageable! Thank you! :)
Incredible! Got this exact same Uke for Xmas, took it out the bag, tuned it and now you have me playing in less than an hour.. Who says you cant teach an old dog (50 something) new tricks?! As soon as I get my fingers to work fast enough, going to do the rest of the course. Thanks so much :)
thank you , i just got my first ukelele , i tried guitar years ago but didnt keep at it as i struggled with the strings . i love my ukelele. these classes are so clear and helpful.
Hi! I just got my ukelele in the mail and started with THIS video! Within an hour I was on the phone playing a rendition of twist and shout with my mom, who knew what it was right away and started to sing along. This is good medicine! Thank you so much for providing these videos!
My family was in one of the 'big' instrument stores here, and they planted themselves in the acoustic room. So, I plucked a concert ukulele off the wall just outside, went in and sat on the bench and pulled up this video on my phone. I did so well and had so much fun, that I decided to buy a ukulele. I did a weeks worth of research because I didn't know anything about them, and purchased a Kala solid mahogany tenor size. Thanks to you, I now own a ukulele and am looking forward to having fun with it. I'm like others here, I've been struggling with guitar for over a year. I think I should have started with the ukulele.
I am going to be part of a all senior woman ukulele group and I love your first lesson . I play the guitar and this is much easier , so far lol ! thank you so much
Thank you so much, Andy. I've always thought the ukulele was such a happy sounding instrument. My kids/husband bought me a ukulele a few years ago for mother's day. I was trying to teach myself out of a book and lost interest. Ukulele lessons just weren't in the budget. I found your 10 Day course and have started enjoying it again. Even my 6 year old daughter has been doing your lessons with me on her Fancy Nancy Ukulele. Again, thank you so much for creating these free online lessons. I'm sure that you have brought music into many households.
Andy, you're my hero! First time ever I've watched a 'learn (insert musical instrument)' and ended up with a feeling that I can actually do this! Thank you!
you're such an amazing teacher!! i'm a cellist and i always thought it would be difficult to unlearn certain things from one instrument to be able to play another but you made things extremely easy to digest and made the ukulele very enjoyable to play!!
Thank you for your awesome tutorial! I got the hang on this chords quickly but need to work on my chord change speed. This is so easy when you explain it! 😄

Random tutorials really capture the spirit of RUclips. The fact that I can just look up anything and there’s a tutorial for it is amazing.

@@leah2802 NO!!!!!!!!
i thought the same thing
I'm a recently retired teacher looking for new learning. This is my favorite song (You are my sunshine)to sing to my grandkids (who are already learning ukelele) so I am very happy to join in!
Thanks for making me not feel incompetent while trying to pick up this really fun instrument. I appreciate it :)
You're very welcome - thanks for the great comment!
Great lesson! I haven’t played the ukulele since I was ten years old. I got a new ukulele yesterday. I’m now 64 years old. I just finished the first lesson. It all came back to me. I’m feeling very successful 🏆. Now, on to the next lesson! (And lots of practice.) Thank you.
I’m leaving this comment to motivate myself to learn how to play on ukulele 😇 I already tried by choosing a really hard song, but I failed, so decided to find a tutorial for beginners. I will update my progress every few days 🤓 Day 1 - starting from scratch. Never played on any instruments. Wish me luck 😅🤣
How did it go? I need to know because I need motivation as well so I can teach my sister as promised
Good luck! How’s it going?
never updated her comment, rip
@@_hannaki lmaooo
well that died
First time trying and I'm absolutely embarrasingly awful, I have such a difficulty thinking about several things at the same time but in the end it actually got bit better, perhaps if I practice this video several times for some weeks, until I feel confident playing this song. You're a great teacher.
I am 75 and love learning with Andy thanks so much being is so boring this is great
Andy: Sounds really good right ?
Me in my room: eh I - I wouldn’t quite say that
😄 Just go with it, make small adjustments and improvements and it will sound good all of a sudden I promise ✌
Since it’s quarantine I’ve always wanted to learn how to play the ukulele so I order mine and am here to learn
I started playing at the start of 2023 and I learned how to play ukelele thanks to you and it's one of the things I enjoy doing most now and I can not thank you enough I watched the entire course and I will pick your tutorials if I feel like playing more instruments in the future. Now I am going to proceed to like the entire course.
Thanks for watching guys!
Let me know what NEW uke videos you would like, or anything I can do to help all of you guys learning to play during self isolating ✌ Wishing you all peace and health 🎸
so I was tuning it and it seems like mine is dgbe version what does that mea and can I still follow along w this video bc when I play it sounds different
Can you please write out Happy Birthday with the chords here?
It’s my son 30th bday and. Want to wish him one and record on IG, if it sounds decent. LOL!

Thank you so much! I can't afford lessons so your videos are a godsend 🤘🏻🎶

Thank you!! 10 minutes in and I’m rocking out with these 3 chords! Well done can’t wait to learn more!

I'm having the issue of placing TOO MUCh pressure, so I can't even play...
Practice more
@@sleepylayla967 too much pressure is a thing??? I’m losing my mind here 😂
@@sydneycollins9489 yea, im used to guitar strings if i apply to much pressure the strings cannot move
This video got my daughter and I playing 2 songs within an hour. It is our second day playing a Ukulele. Thanks so much for all your work in putting this together! Looking forward to watching and learning with the rest of your lessons
Cliff Reilly Awesome! how has it been now a month in?
I am going to have to watch this over and over and over again, after my finger tips have feeling in them again. Andy sure does make it easy to follow along with. Thanks Andy for putting these out!
He absolutely is the best yotube ukelele teacher. Respect. 👍
Me when I was 8: ooooh pink ukulele, YES
Me as a 16 year old: literally can't play at all & trying to learn how to strum
I saw these really pretty tropical-looking ones & now I'm hooked😭
I have a pink one just saying
Mine's purple 🌝
Now a professional ukalele pla
I'm learning at 35 on my kids uke...keep at it!
My boyfriend just gave me a ukulele as a Christmas present (merry Christmas to all btw) and I'm really glad I found your videos. I wanna play a song to him on his bday in February.
Adryana Diniz Same! My entire family is kinda sharing a ukulele but I’m the one who uses it the most. Already starting to get callouses by how hard I’m pressing on the strings
Happy birtday maybee!
@@Myrslokstok the notification from your message came during my bday party! LOL
Were you successful
@@mattmatt7951 we actually broke up before that lol but I'm still playing the uku and that's what matters!!!!
After years and years of procrastinating, I finally ordered myself an ukulele and got it today. Stumbled across your channel and I enjoyed your session. Thank you for putting up your free 10 day course for us to learn on RUclips. Hope you're having an awesome. Meanwhile, I'll go practice some more. Thanks again.

I've been so proud of myself for not biting my nails/growing them out, but now I'm going to have to sacrifice then to play ukulele
Same, dammit! 😜
Same lol I cut it today and followed him properly and it worked
I literally had to bite 2 of them off during the lesson 😂😂

I’m learning this so that I can pass my time doing what I love in a new country! Thank you!❤
Incredible! Got this exact same Uke for Xmas, took it out the bag, tuned it and now you have me playing in less than an hour.. Who says you cant teach an old dog (50 something) new tricks?! As soon as I get my fingers to work fast enough, going to do the rest of the course. Thanks so much :)
I just got an ukulele yesterday cuz of Christmas and I already know to play a song with your help.Thanks merry Christmas!🎅

I love your tutorial and have ordered my Ukulele from amazon. I am going to turn 40 soon, Hope it is not too late to learn Ukulele.
No one is late or early to learn something new
Never too late, all the best!
all the best! 💖
Better late than never ! Tho it's not even late
Still young you have lot of yrs to enjoy the instrument and play other instruments too
thank you , i just got my first ukelele , i tried guitar years ago but didnt keep at it as i struggled with the strings . i love my ukelele. these classes are so clear and helpful.
I have a month to learn happy birthday for my daughter. Math is so much easier than this...
Did you manage? :D

Aweee I know I'm late, but that's so sweet of you 🥰
Omg that’s so cute wholesome parent is wholesome
Hi! I just got my ukelele in the mail and started with THIS video! Within an hour I was on the phone playing a rendition of twist and shout with my mom, who knew what it was right away and started to sing along. This is good medicine! Thank you so much for providing these videos!
I finally found my ukulele from christmas 2020, i lost it in my closet and i wanted to learn more, this helped me a lot! Thank you!!!
My family was in one of the 'big' instrument stores here, and they planted themselves in the acoustic room. So, I plucked a concert ukulele off the wall just outside, went in and sat on the bench and pulled up this video on my phone. I did so well and had so much fun, that I decided to buy a ukulele. I did a weeks worth of research because I didn't know anything about them, and purchased a Kala solid mahogany tenor size. Thanks to you, I now own a ukulele and am looking forward to having fun with it. I'm like others here, I've been struggling with guitar for over a year. I think I should have started with the ukulele.
me who switched to ukulele because i can't stand guitars breaking my fingers
👁💧👄💧👁
Me who successfully learned guitar very well but decided that “you know what? Ukulele. Let’s get this bitch”
👁💧👄💧👁
reason for learning ukulele: wanna be good at some instrument like day6 looooooool
Yesss Day6
@@heehee2467 haha
Hahaha im also inspired by day6
Day6 is the reason I wanna play instruments
Bts & skz are the reasons why I write lyrics
Didn't expect there'd be mydays here, do you guys have twitter? Lets be moots ( ╹▽╹ )
Honestly, It took me more than 10 days to finish this lesson in the video😂😂😂
Practice makes perfect!

I am going to be part of a all senior woman ukulele group and I love your first lesson . I play the guitar and this is much easier , so far lol ! thank you so much
Thank you so much, Andy. I've always thought the ukulele was such a happy sounding instrument. My kids/husband bought me a ukulele a few years ago for mother's day. I was trying to teach myself out of a book and lost interest. Ukulele lessons just weren't in the budget. I found your 10 Day course and have started enjoying it again. Even my 6 year old daughter has been doing your lessons with me on her Fancy Nancy Ukulele. Again, thank you so much for creating these free online lessons. I'm sure that you have brought music into many households.
I just got a ukelele yesterday from my family! Your video is SO helpful and easy to follow. I’m already playing “You are my Sunshine”!
Im 55yo and excited to learn on the ukulele my father bought for my son 8 yrs ago. My son never played it and my father passed 2 yrs ago.
Make him proud... 🧚🏼
Andy, you're my hero! First time ever I've watched a 'learn (insert musical instrument)' and ended up with a feeling that I can actually do this! Thank you!
you're such an amazing teacher!! i'm a cellist and i always thought it would be difficult to unlearn certain things from one instrument to be able to play another but you made things extremely easy to digest and made the ukulele very enjoyable to play!!
Thank you for your awesome tutorial! I got the hang on this chords quickly but need to work on my chord change speed. This is so easy when you explain it! 😄
The way he explains things is the same way my piano teacher explaines things to me so it's perfect for when I'm learning especially the counting
