You were my first teacher on the internet. Seven years ago. Met a wonderful teacher in person. It's been my sunshine, my only sunshine sometimes... music is life
the main reason i even got a uke is because i wanted to learn how to play tear in my heart by Twenty One Pilots. i got it, learned it, and kept learning different songs!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. My mom is my sunshine and now because of you she can listen to her baby boy play and sing for her. It's all because of you. I am her sunshine. It only took 61 years. I owe you big.
I just bought a ukelele a bit ago and have been watching your videos religiously since then. Steven Universe actually inspired me to buy a ukelele and I’ve watched all of your SU videos MANY times, and I was wondering if you could do a tutorial on “Be Wherever You Are” or “We Are the Crystal Gems” (especially the version with young Steven!!) Thank you so much for making these videos, they’re by far the most helpful tutorials on how to play ukelele that I’ve found
I just started ukelele, and I've loved your tutorials! I'm so excited this came out, but it will be my third song instead 😆 (if you count twinkle twinkle and the ABC's as two separate songs... Which, you know, they aren't really! 😆)
I was told at school in music I was tone deaf so never tried. Now at 44 I'm trying to learn Ukelele. Away to try follow this lesson as only done chord progression so far. Also have arthritis in my hands but probably the more I play, my hands will get faster. I hope so anyway. Thanks for making these tutorials
Hi John ! It’s Deepa here, We used to work together at rbkc ! My daughter is learning the uke from your tutorials ! Great work and It’s lovely seeing you again !!!
I would love a tutorial for: > Blackbird by the beatles > Mmm mmm mmm mmm by crash test dummies > Still Alive & Want You Gone from Portal 1&2 > Maple Leaf Rag > Twelfth Street Rag
I was so confused why it seemed harder than it should be and why I couldn't make it sound the same. So I watched and listened on .20 speed. He's not actually strumming the same patten he explained. There are extra notes and some times he squeezes in a full extra beat
Omg thank you! It's my first song to learn on the ukulele and I have a really hard time matching his tempo. The step from the first strumming pattern to the second one really threw me off. It was just too fast and I was so confused because it sounded really different😅 This would explain why it felt so weird (apart from my noob-ness)
I'd love to know how to play fools gold by one direction but i can't find a turorial for ukelele that sounds close to the original song Have you consider do one of that song?
I think the song(s) you should learn first are songs that you just really wanna play and don't are too hard on beginners...It keeps you motivated. I could never motivate myself to practice "you are my sunshine " :D That's why I started with Radioactive, Wellerman and Pocahontas (german Song by AnnenMayKantereit). But as usual - great video! Btw: From personal experience I can also recommend to have a song that you practice every day in fingerstyle... It's just so different from "Chord-play" and for me it really helped with my hand coordination and also chord-switching.
Anyone can play the Uke, honestly its not difficult, you can learn 3 to 4 very easy chords and play hundreds of songs, just have a bit of patience, bit of time to learn and you will be grand Use a light pick as its sometimes easier for some people, and have a tuner clipped to your Ukelele, keep checking you are in tune, G,C,E,A Good luck, spend 20/30 mins per day for a week and you will have 10 songs by the end of it, Go for it, let me know how you got on 💚
The only chord I have a problem with is the g chord it always sounds bad only sometimes I strum it properly and it sounds nice and every beginner song has this chord I swearrr :(

I have probably sung this to my granddaughter 1,000 times. It is such a sweet song. Great to get kids to play the uke because they know it.
the main reason i even got a uke is because i wanted to learn how to play tear in my heart by Twenty One Pilots. i got it, learned it, and kept learning different songs!
@Iza I just started 10 days ago. But I sure would like to know which tutorial you learned to play tear in my heart ❤️? 😊
You inspired me to start bc I bought a ukelele - a pink one - 2 years ago but haven’t started. Thanks!!!
I got one for SpongeBob and tiny Tim music 😂😂😂
Thank you, thank you, thank you. My mom is my sunshine and now because of you she can listen to her baby boy play and sing for her.
It's all because of you. I am her sunshine. It only took 61 years. I owe you big.
Oh man that was so sweet

This is still too hard 😂
Ikr😢
Too fast but good strumming pattern
I'll never get it😂
Too fast for me too ..I slowed playback speed to .75
Same!!
First I learned was The judge by TØP from your tutorial. So thank you for helping me

Thanks teach good first lesson.
I was not prepared for that epic arrangement at the end of the video. You had me head banging to " You Are Me Sunshine" lol
Great video.
Hi John ! It’s Deepa here, We used to work together at rbkc ! My daughter is learning the uke from your tutorials ! Great work and It’s lovely seeing you again !!!
This was the very first song i learnt a year ago! Awesome starter cause you can play so many others songs with the same 3 chords
Awesome lesson, I just unboxed my first ukulele AND played my very first song 😊. Thank you for the lesson!
Hey brother can you teach me how to play flow around the country by Christopher if that’s possible

Thank you so much for your videos and I am learning so much. I am struggling with keeping time when strumming fast. Any tips?
My first song in ukulele was Happy birthday then this! Thank you! I subscribed! Beginner learner from Taiwan!
Yes agreed
I would love a tutorial for:
> Blackbird by the beatles
> Mmm mmm mmm mmm by crash test dummies
> Still Alive & Want You Gone from Portal 1&2
> Maple Leaf Rag
> Twelfth Street Rag
Crash Test Dummies are one of my favourite bands - I’m surprised I haven’t done that one yet!

Thanks so much easy for me to catch the lesson
I'd love to know how to play fools gold by one direction but i can't find a turorial for ukelele that sounds close to the original song
Have you consider do one of that song?

Just a heads up. It seems like this video and song sheet are no longer available for paying patreon members.
This was very easy and nice 🤗

Love your tutorials! Could you make a simple and advanced tutorial for Always With Me, from the movie Spirited Away?

Please do a tutorial on piano teacher by bug hunter
The first songs i learned on ukulele were steven universe and adventure time songs 😊❤️
Oh and TØP hehe
Imo the first one (and most recognizable) is ... Riptide . I would still probably bring my uke and somehow play it decently . But that's me.
Hammer time by Lecrae
The song roimata from brother love please mate no one on RUclips has done it
It's very easy for a guitar player as i get it.

Use a light pick as its sometimes easier for some people, and have a tuner clipped to your Ukelele, keep checking you are in tune, G,C,E,A
Good luck, spend 20/30 mins per day for a week and you will have 10 songs by the end of it,
Go for it, let me know how you got on 💚

Can you do a tutorial for "On a Tropical Island" from adventure time?
Too fast for beginners
I want to learn love songs aren’t for us
Go to fast for a beginners
Not very easy
Learning an instrument is inherently difficult, and this is as easy as it gets.
@@jasonknotts5001 I disagree, this made me confused and now I want to quit! It's too much to fast!! 😕
@@pameladavis9939 then watch a different tutorial?? everyone gets better if they practice
@@aquaepz I did and I do☺️
SpongeBob music is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy far more easyer 😂😂😂
This is the most confusing thing ever
He is too fast
