Hi
I started to learn the Ukulele when my brother, quite unexpectedly bought me one for Christmas.
I have been trying my best to learn a few chords, transitions and strum patterns in order to at least seem grateful, but I must admit a couple of weeks into 2021 and my enthusiasm was beginning to wane.
Then I stumbled across one of your videos. I was actually watching some "Austin Ukulele Society" vids at the time and thinking it looked like a great night out (that's what quarantine does to you! ). Anyway, since you uttered the words "I didn't really think I could do a Queen Elizabeth I cover on my ukulele" I've been hooked.
Since that night I have not been to bed before 2am as your energy keeps me buzzing and wanting to practice more and more. I don't know if I'm improving at all as I have to play every strum completely muted because everyone else is in bed. Mastering this technique has been quite an achievement in itself.
Anyway, thank you very much for what you're doing, keep doing it and keep safe. xxx
Love from

Phil!!! You have no idea how much your thoughtful comment has made my day!! Thank you so much! I'm so happy that you found my videos and music inspiring and have used them to push past that learning plateau into finding your passion for uke! Keep strummin' and thank you again for your very kind words! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Have a great week, Phil!
your advice on ukulele strumming is invaluable, thank you very much 😂
So happy it could help you, Sav! Thanks for watching!
The stacking thing was insanely helpful. Many thanks.
Yay! So happy to help, John! Glad it worked for ya. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
This was chucking awesome.
Haha I see what you did there
I'm so happy that you did this!!
Thanks, Kenzie! Glad you're enjoying it!
I love your voice so much! It always sounds so happy and its also super relaxing you have an incredible singing voice keep up the great work!!
Thank you!! That means so much! ❤️🙏🏼
@@DestinyGuerra ofc!! I did have a quick question if you dont mind me asking where do you tune your ukulele like I have a tuner and I tend to tune it on C but whenever I follow tutorials and such it always sounds so low
I may also be completely miss understanding how to use my tuner I just started ukulele last month so kinda a beginner😅
@@fantasticalmoose5727 I actually use an app for tuning! It’s called Guitar Tuna (like the fish). They have a ukulele setting and it really helps!
@@DestinyGuerra Okay cool!! Thank you so much!!
Hell yea! That kicked ass
Love your voice!
what a fun video, and good tunes too. Yarrrr, me thinks it worthy of a rip roaring good flask o'whiskey or coffee.
Loved this video, Destiny! 🤙
Oh my! Thank you so much, Kala!! ❤️❤️ Your concert uke is my go-to! Thanks for keeping me hooked on my four-string friend!
I love these shanties. They are somewhat like American ballads, a hundred verses, repetition upon repetition, but somehow still touching your heart. I'm actually a guitar player, but I bought a ukulele in order to teach my grandchild some music before she's old enough to handle a guitar. Now I'm stuck on the ukulele. It's such fun to play. ;-)
They are so much fun! Agreed!
Thanks for the lesson Destiny!
Thanks!
New subscriber. Just started playing the ukulele this tutorial was helpful and your covers are good too looking forward to more 👍
Thanks so much! Stoked to hear my vids are helpful for you as you get started! Looking forward to seeing you around here on your ukulele journey!
@@DestinyGuerra just need to also sort my fat fingers D out that did make me laugh at beginning and my changing to Em quicker ha for some reason i have issues with that then mini mental breakdown happens and then im ok again lol 👍
This is special. Thanks.
Thanks, Larry! 🙏🏼
Just found you I am a new player, I was looking to learn some sea shanties and wow a brilliant introduction to them , good fun session and will be learning them and following you,
Thanks, John! I’m glad you found the tutorials helpful! Hope you are doing well on your new ukulele journey!
Need to learn the chucking part!
Hi there! I just learned to play the ukelele and I love it! The pirate shanties are awesome! However, it was sometimes a bit difficult to follow you with the strums.. because it wasn't all too clear. 😅 But I just kept watching it over and over, and now I get the hand out of it. 😁 Keep up the good work!! 💪🏻😁
Thanks for the feedback, Robin! Glad you were able to catch it after a few watches!
Wicked, you just bossed that 👍🏻☘️☘️❤️
Thanks, Michael!! ❤️
Really nice voice.
You are completely crazy, but brilliant
Your ear rings are the best
Haha! Thank you!
Only just found your channel! Fab video! Another two to teach to my group :D Aaaargh! that be a pretty good pirate accent! Btw it's International Talk Like A Pirate Day on Sunday 19th September! Well shiver me timbers! Lol! x
Haha! Glad you enjoyed!
And your voice is beautiful!!!!❤☘️🤙 Greg⭐
I didn't really enjoy that but it's great for beginners. Sometimes I think videos give more information than I need. Cool video though.. respect for helping new people.. and it sounds great. Sorry I didn't start with that. I play like every day and never sound that good
Great teacher
Thank you! Glad you are finding it helpful! 🙏

So, I bought your songs from Patreon but I need you singing the songs all the way through. I tried to download these songs so that I could practice with them and learn the words but none of the songs have the exact same words that you use. Is there a place where you have the whole song available? I love your voice and your personality! I do not sing well but I do better when I have someone to sing with.
You had me at "shanty zhuzh" :_)
😎😎 Glad to have you, Noe.
Além de bonita, é simpática, querida e ensina super bem... 😍
Obrigada
the hat worked well with the shanties but the glasses made me feel like I was back on land. That British seafaring stuff made its way to Australia, Botany Bay is an excellent example. Might be elements of it still in old rustic outback music, knew some people that did folk music years back but the generation that was familiar with is largely gone.
Yeah, the glasses ruin pretty much every outfit I wear 🤷🏻♀️✨
The Uke....was made for you!!!!
Haha thanks, Meera!
Wonderful tutorial and very nice Voice,! Can you make an extra tutorial on the 4. and 5. song, please?! Much greetings from Germany
Thanks for the request, Djuna. We’ll see what future tutorials hold!
I'm really motivated to learn ukulele after watching this! What size uke are you playing in the video?
That totally makes my day, David! So happy to hear it! I'm playing a concert size ukulele in all my videos (just a better size for my longer fingers and gangly elbows lol). Enjoy your ukulele journey!
@@DestinyGuerra Thanks for the reply! I will soon be joining the ukulele club! :)
You had me at upchuck.
Haha! I make reference to barfy upchucks in many of videos lol
Have you done Barnacle Bill the Sailor! Great instuctional video!
I haven’t yet! Great suggestion!
stiggity stack barre nubbin'... classic.
😎🤣🤣
could you possibly consider doing a version of the dubliners seven drunken nights Kindest regards Neil
I’ll add it to the list of requests!
Hi Destiny.
I just came across this video whilst looking for Ukulele pirate songs. Now I am 65 years old and have only been playing the Ukulele for around 6 years. I have never played an instrument before (a part from a triangle in Infant school….the only instrument I was trusted with!) and I do not read music. As most Ukulele playing is chord based not reading music isn’t obviously a problem. Now, having just watched this video to the end I would love to be able to play some of the chord sequences you demonstrated but try as I might I can not finger strum, I have to plat with a Plectrum. Also, my fingers are nowhere near as nimble and flexible as yours and are shorter so I struggle to form some chords and I struggle to change between some chords fast enough so when I am playing with my club members I sometimes have to skip a chord. So having g told you all that, my question to you is; is it possible to play all chord sequences with a Plectrum or can they only be played by finger strummers? Simple up down strumming isn’t a problem but that is currently my limit! Any advice, welcome.
Best wishes,
Mark (Leicestershire, UK)
Just bought an ukelele and gonna take my time to learn all sea chanties so when the pubs open again i can sing and play drunk :p
Yass! That sounds like a perfect plan to kick-off in the post-pandemic life! Thanks for being awesome, Egosu!
Thanks for this great video
What tuning is this in?
I always play in standard tuning (GCEA)
Oh my gosh you are so funny 😂
Arrgh. Very fun tutorial. I've enjoyed your videos. I may put a few pieces of eight in your bag (joining Patreon!).
haha! Thank you so much, dangnabbit! So happy to hear you’re digging my silly lessons! And that would be amazing! Thank you!
It’a the Weatherman 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ohh my goodness
🤓🤓 I mean, it COULD be a weather man. 🤷🏻♀️
Part 4 of tiktok songs on the uke?
Technically, yes.
I have that exact ukulele
We are uke twinsies! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Can we get sea shanty 2? From osrs
Thanks for the suggestion!
Can you do put on a happy face ukulele tutorial?
Thanks for the suggestion!
❤
hi there, just checking that the strum pattern played over 2 chords?
Hi Ian! Thanks for your question! Which song are you referring to?
@@DestinyGuerra sorry, wellerman
No prob. So with the strumming pattern think of it as a set of 4 beats. In the verse, you do the first chord for the full 4 beats, but then the next two chords only get 2 beats each. And so on. When you get to the chorus, every chord only gets 2 beats (the first half of the strum structure, then the next chord gets the second half). Hope that helps!
I saw this vid and was like damn I need to subscribe! Go to channel and she has been gone for almost a year, big sad😢
I'm still alive =) I'm over on Twitch these days, playing live music shows if you ever wanna stop by! http;//www.twitch.tv/destinyguerra
BUT new content coming to the RUclips channel in the New Year!
This is great but I’m New so I have to play this video in .5x speed just so I can follow along 😅
I played the ukulele for 2 years and i also played in a big proformuns with around 200 people playing out of a lotof schools and around 600 people watching and there was only like 6 kids from my school butwherei was sat my family could not see me because the person who was telling us when to strum i was sat the other side of them
Sounds like a big show, Charly! Sorry your fam couldn’t see ya! Keep on ukein’ though!
Keep doing video
Thank you, Ragul!
We have the same ukulele!
It’s a good one!
How are you? Have thought about you from time to time and wondering if you are ok.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
🙏🏼
How about you try it with your toy accordion?
can you do 'bubble pop electric' song!! Btw, I love your video and its helpful
I’ve had a few requests for bubble pop! It’s definitely a contender for future tutorials! Glad you’re finding them helpful, Izzatdean!
teacher is nicer than melodies 😊
Thanks, Burak!
Hey Destiny.... just thought i would let you know... ah... there is a crab hanging from your ear. Thanks for this : )
Haha! He has a brother over on the other ear too! Thanks for stopping by, Burk!
@@DestinyGuerra As long as they are not talking to each other then your good to go! Thanks again for the refreshing entertainment and the excellent Uk work
Ukulele from Indonesia is well known in other countries🥰🥰
I'm old, just learning, and your explanation
S of chords are great... BUT how about a SLO-O-OW PLAY THRU, and maybe a NONE CHUCK plathrough, for the less accomplished of us? Then I can subscribe and play more tunes with you!
ShirleyAnne☺(UK)
Yeah, I usually do exactly that in my tutorials but was aiming to keep this one on the short side, but thanks for the suggestions, Shirley! I’ll keep them in mind next time! Happy Strumming! ❤️
Why don't you try going "d d D du" for Wellerman?
I like mixing up my patterns, but thanks for the feedback!
21:20 min is what you came for
Thanos for Row me bully boy Row pretty girl
Thanks!
Oooh so you are breaking up the strumming pattern?
Yes! I tend to mix them up 👍🏼
Something strangly likeable about you🤣
I’ll take it!😅
Ur from my story animated
I’m not sure what that means, but hooray!
Hard:'c

Im here because of Assassins Creed Black Flag..
Welcome in!
That was the most painful, convoluted, and horrible tutorial I've seen in years.
So much bla bla bla
I know, right?
