I HAVE PLAYED GUITAR FOR 30 YEARS. JUST STARTED LEARNING UKULELE. THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST TUTORIAL I HAVE EVER USED FOR GUITAR OR UKULELE !!!! THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IN THE EFFORT TO HELP OTHERS LEARN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG !!!
Y'all - for those of you who are struggling to "keep up"... Set your playback speed to a slower pace and work on keeping up with it that way. Once you can keep up, set it to the next higher speed. Keep going till you're at "normal". (See the wheel on the lower right of the video, next to the CC box.) This little idea has saved my life and I have learned soooo many more songs this way - not to mention, I've learned how to play so much faster as a whole because I set the playback speed to a level I can handle and then I move up as I get better.
@@jacobbrown8052 - I studied classical piano from kindergarten through college and I still had to slow this video down to be able to keep up. LOL! No shame in that. Nobody's gonna hear you play it till you've got it up to a good speed anyway so slow that playback speed down enough to learn it first. You'll learn it faster that way too. Happy learning and happy playing!
My teacher is trying to use a thump pattern. There are two thumps before both parts of the pattern. I am lost anyone got a tutorial that does this pattern?
@@elearninghigheredk12 Play it however you like it. If it sounds good and makes you smile, you played it correctly. Find a new teacher. Learn to read and play Tab. Slow your roll Add to what you teach yourself. It’s all patterns repeating. Play the patterns sing the Backtrack. Make yourself happy

Really appreciate the visual format for following along. Only one suggestion: is it possible to add a preview for the next chord - just a small "Am" or "E7" to prepare us for the chord change?
Ich hab jetzt vor 5 Jahren diess Lied auf Ukulele gelernt. Es ist unfassbar, dass ich es auch noch ganz gut auf Ukulele spielen konnte, trotz der ganzen Zeit, die vergangen war. Danke für seine Unterstützung❤❤❤
Not sad but happy in my opinion. Somewhere over the rainbow your dreams will come true. Somewhere over the rainbow there's brighter things to come. Somewhere over the rainbow is a happier, better place. That's what bruddah IZ would want. He lives on through his music as a positive legend who spread nothing but love, joy and happiness.
This could be the only song I ever learn on the ukulele and I’d be happy. This video truly does make it so easy anyone can learn you just got a put the work in.
I literally just started playing ukulele and so far this is my first ever ukulele tutorial that I have watch. You are so good at teaching and it's nice and simple which made it a whole lot easier to learn. Thank you so much.
I would totally recommend this. The chords are easier than most “over the rainbow” tutorials 👍🏻 and it is so easy to follow along. Thank you for putting the strumming pattern and lyrics in the video too! 🌈🌈🌈
I dunno about anyone else, but for my ADD/"hey look at that shiny thing over there" brain, this was a perfect blend of simple, focused audio and visual. My compliments to the chef.
I've never played an instrument of any kind before picking up this ukulele a few days ago... Omigosh, it's so fast, but so very very helpful, but omigosh so very very fast. I really love the format, the tab with finger notation, the easy explanation of the strum pattern, the karaoke scrolling lyrics, the total lack of any superfluous and tiresome anecdotes or explanations(really, what other tutorials lack is understanding that we're here to practice, we don't need all the jibba jabba every single time we run it back. Lovely as all the fine people sharing love of this cheery instrument are, it's incredibly tedious to watch anyone count fingers after the very first time)... this is definitely the best tutorial I've seen BY FAR. Having said that, I do just wish I could adjust the playback speed to give me time to fumble awkwardly while making the chord shapes as I baby step through this. No worries though. I can pause and write things down to practice till I'm ready to bring myself up to speed. Seriously, a most sincere and hearty THANK YOU, you kind and merciful soul! This is absolute perfection!
Alex Haag This doesn't seem to be a mobile feature just yet, but I'll try booting up the laptop now that you mention it. Thank you very much for the tip. :)
Thinking about getting a uke since everyone is quarantined 😂 why not learn something new 😊 Update everyone I bought one like the day after I commented this and I love ittt!!
These are the best instructions I've found on UA-cam so far. The strum pattern, chord name, chord charts, melody audio, lyrics, and visual are done perfectly to see exactly how to play this delightful tune.🌈 Thank you! ❤
Thanks for your help in learning this song. Iz brought tears to my eyes with his rendition of this song. I look forward to playing and singing this beautiful song.
When I was 10 years old whether I wanted a Ike or guitar..I thought guitar was just a big use so I got a guitar..Long story short..never played it..now at 72 I just ordered my 1st Uke..from hearing this song..I will learn how to play it...
im stuck at home because of the coronavirus and our music teacher told us to find a ukulele song and practice it. best tutorial ive seen so far thank you so much!
Played a uke a little bit in the 60's when I lived in Hawaii, didn't think too much about it and I've played guitar now for over 40 yrs, but didn't consider the ukulele for years until IZ, and then Grace Vanderwaal won AGT last year, a 12 yr old with a Ukulele changed my thinking. Since then I've heard Uke's added to a lot of music and the effect is wonderful. Thanks for the tutorial - it's made understanding the chording and fret positions a lot easier!
Thank you so much for taking out the time to show us all such a great tutorial!!!....it's this song by IZ that made me want to learn how to play the ukelele....so i went out and bought me an uke..and thanks to you and your channel I now know how to play one of my favorite songs EVER!!...keep up the great work and may God continue to Bless You!!!....easiest way and best tutorial on teaching the uke...HANDS DOWN!!!!......
Ian learn the chords until you don’t have to look at the fret board to play them. Then muck about playing them in any order, you’ll soon find what sounds good and what doesn’t. Then you can follow the rhythm, the tune and the words
You dont really need that. I have had a little ukelele since i was like 3 but i have never tried playing seriously since it always was out of tune. But not i tried to tune it and i learnt the chords for this the first day. Learn the strming patter then look at what chords there are and play it in order. And obviously try to sing.
THANKS ALOT, THIS IS THE BEST TUTORIAL EVER. Other youtubers that does ukulele/guitar tutorials should do it this way cuz its really helpful specially for newbies
Wow, what a tutorial! No nonsense, no youtubet speech, straight to the point, just play along, keep up if you dare. I'm about it. Liking, commenting, subscribing!
I am in Norway in a cabin in the woods with my inlaws and I didnt have a guitar, but there was a ukulele here. Thanks to your great video lesson I was able to play this song around the campfire and because of the lyrics almost everybody cried. Thank you and Izzy (L)
Wanted to play this for a upcoming get together! Haven't pulled out the guitar or uke in years! So nice to just to find a step by step instruction video. Thank you for sharing this. My fingers are sore, but the beat is back and i now can play one of my favorite songs! Rest in Peace IZ....
merci pour ce tuto :) pour n'avoir jamais touché ni a un ukulélé ni a une guitare, j'ai appris ce morceau en 3 semaines grâce à cette vidéo. Thanks a lot !!
Got one of these today Christmas day!, I am Guitarist/Pianist but just love the sound of this thing, Thanks for your Video ,I just about kept up with you...after 3 attempts!.Cheers
+David J Nann Me too David. . . just treated myself to a KALA Mahogany soprano uke, and love it.. I play guitar but just wanna learn uke so I can take it everywhere I go.
Alright i know how old this tutorial is but i just started learning ukulele about summer time and i really struggled to find a good tutorial for this song and this was amazing it helped so much and i always re-watch and practice almost every day to get better. Its such an amazing song.
What’s the clicking for in the background?Very new to this, only been a couple of weeks. Thanks for the instruction and not talking bull. Hate type way some pretentious people on you tube insist on calling the ukulele, oukelele!
This tutorial is perfect, I picked up a friends Ukelele tonight having never played one before (18 years guitar experience) and was playing this in 40 minutes
the reason why this song is so nostalgic to me is because Everytime i woke up from 4:30 am to prepare to go school i always hear this and it's so relaxing in the morning when i was a kid so when i hear this out of no where it made relax and reminiscing my childhood especially when there is rain and school is suspended
I'm trying to learn this version so that I can teach my granddaughters and one of their friends, (after I get back from my son's wedding in Hawaii next week)
If your seeing this and is kind of enough to help please reply, my girlfriend sings this song a lot and whenever I listen to it on UA-cam it reminds me of her, I was wondering if singing this while playing the ukulele to her would be a nice gift of some kind
Yeah, you should definitely do it! I think it would be a great gift to your GF. It's thoughtful, personal, sweet and special...all the needed elements to make the perfect gift! Let us know how it goes and what her reaction is, ok?
(I didn't practice the song everyday) I could play the first part pretty well in a week, so I just played other songs and stuff, but finally I can play it really well and sync my voice with it efortlessly while relaxing, which is what the ukulele is all about.
IZ's original version goes like this: Pluck 4th string(G), DOWN, up , down up, DOWN,up so Pluck Down up down up Down up, also IZ had a low G string on the top.. )
It’s never gonna sound exactly like IZ’s cause he used crazy plucking and strumming techniques plus he used a tenor with a low g string which gives the original the swingy Hawaiian touch to it
+Uke4U2 Hi! Im a 11 yr old and love the ukulele! I got my first last month! He (Iz) was my main inspiration, and his song Somewhere Over The Rainbow touched my heart. When I found out he died I was in a great depression. But eventually, I got over hit. Still to this day, his song is heartwarming. And I thought, after watching this, "Could you do a new one of this?" And so my question is, obviously, could you do a new one of this? One of my teachers will be judging in the talent show and I really hope I can learn this because that teacher loves this song as well! Well, ok thank you and good-bye!
I play guitar and started ukulele and this is such a good tourtial for this song! I could get someone on my guitar and I on ukulele and make some good music👍Thank you alot this really helped lots of people learn ukulele thank you!❤️❤️
@@jensondavis4480 this is the chords on guitar I'm looking for the guitar part you can hear playing behind the ukulele in the video. But thanks for trying!
Reallt enjoyed this tut. Glad you just got on with it - instead of a self indulgent five minute intro about interesting chord changes like some other videos do.
for anyone who is feeling discouraged, i just played along at half the speed and sounded like SHIT! totally awful, even at half speed! but im going to keep playing over and over until i can get the strumming pattern down, get the new chords right, and get this song to sound like the video at full tempo. just takes time and patience. stick with it, it's worth it! it doesn't have to be perfect the first time, the tenth time, or even the hundreth time. even Iz made mistakes when he learned to play!!!
any chance to get the chord sheet? I think that link is broken (it's not loading for me). Thanks! Very good tutorial BTW...playing this song is one of my bucket list items, and you've moved me a long way toward that!
When I first got a uke this was the first song I tried to learn how to play it was a bit hard. So if you are learning to play the uke for the first time I would advise you to learn to play "I don't know my name" by Grace Vanderwaal
Thanks guys I'm like Micheal a retired guitar player thought I get a ukulele for fun but it's great I have no problems watching you playing and play along thank you
I HAVE PLAYED GUITAR FOR 30 YEARS. JUST STARTED LEARNING UKULELE. THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST TUTORIAL I HAVE EVER USED FOR GUITAR OR UKULELE !!!! THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IN THE EFFORT TO HELP OTHERS LEARN SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG !!!
Thanks. With your experience you'll be a good uke player soon.
Haha I've played the ukulele first just to get used to holding an instrument like this, then I started playing guitar about a month ago
Michael V same here 10 years on off just picked up a uke loving it
gotem
Liam Hillman That means that there are no fingers
I bet this song alone motivated many to learn ukulele.
I got mine yesterday because of this music
It did it for me🎼
@@dannyrivera5200 which one did u get?
@@diogo_t_pinto3969 oh nice
Yup and first song I learned

Play it however you like it. If it sounds good and makes you smile, you played it correctly.
Find a new teacher.
Learn to read and play Tab.
Slow your roll
Add to what you teach yourself.
It’s all patterns repeating.
Play the patterns sing the Backtrack. Make yourself happy
this tutorial is a gold mine. Within two days I could sing and play this song correctly. Big THANKS

Really appreciate the visual format for following along. Only one suggestion: is it possible to add a preview for the next chord - just a small "Am" or "E7" to prepare us for the chord change?
Good constructive criticism, commenting to bump.
I came here to say the same thing. This is the best format I've seen yet. Just needed the preview of next chord.
Can't wait to see more!
Hey, guys. Don’t bother replying. Looking at the dates on the most recent videos, it appears this channel has been dead for years.
Js practice more
Yeah it would be more enjoyable if it was that way
This video alone got me on my ukulele journey about 3 years ago, gave me the confidence to keep trying.
Massive thank you Uke4u
I got a little Uke for Christmas, honestly the best gift ever. I've had so much fun playing these little tunes after work. So relaxing.
preacher jonson i got mine today. Sweet!!!
I also got one today let's be uke friends xd
I got mine today as well! This tutorial is so helpful!
Its ukelele but because of the mandela effect/glitch in the matrix/CERN it became ukulele.
How did you do the correct strum ??? ... Its so hard for me ....
Ich hab jetzt vor 5 Jahren diess Lied auf Ukulele gelernt.
Es ist unfassbar, dass ich es auch noch ganz gut auf Ukulele spielen konnte, trotz der ganzen Zeit, die vergangen war.
Danke für seine Unterstützung❤❤❤
I can not explain how much I love this video. there is no talking, only playing and chord names. just perfect.
I hope, I'm not too eerie.
Just a chubby uke player.
Thanks for watching.
Still learning from your video...thank you😁
Iz was overweight too but what a voice !!! Sadly missed !! Have you seen the scattering of his ashes in the ocean ?? Try not to cry !!
You do awesome bro
Professional chubby uke player
When you can make something look easy, you're doing everything right. Love your style!
Finally 😂 i find someone who just play and don't talk 10 min useless shit. Thank you
Thanks. I can't stand too much talking too. So I say nothing in the vids.
I like your clips dude. U r a good teacher ^^
Vjeko Medic Strum on man.
Uke4U2 Hey! Your Really Good! Do you have any recommend Ukulele for Beginners!
Stagg, Makala Dolphin would do it. Might need a setup.
Damn, this song is so sad, even reading the lyrics makes me want to cry. RIP IZ
Not sad but happy in my opinion. Somewhere over the rainbow your dreams will come true. Somewhere over the rainbow there's brighter things to come. Somewhere over the rainbow is a happier, better place. That's what bruddah IZ would want. He lives on through his music as a positive legend who spread nothing but love, joy and happiness.
I cry every time I hear it because it was played at my uncles funeral and he died of cancer
I cry every time as well because it's my dying grandmothers favorite song
ellhnas?
the lyrics are wrong in IZ's version,...
this was a live recording he messed up the words but kept going,...
This could be the only song I ever learn on the ukulele and I’d be happy. This video truly does make it so easy anyone can learn you just got a put the work in.

I dunno about anyone else, but for my ADD/"hey look at that shiny thing over there" brain, this was a perfect blend of simple, focused audio and visual. My compliments to the chef.
I've never played an instrument of any kind before picking up this ukulele a few days ago... Omigosh, it's so fast, but so very very helpful, but omigosh so very very fast.
I really love the format, the tab with finger notation, the easy explanation of the strum pattern, the karaoke scrolling lyrics, the total lack of any superfluous and tiresome anecdotes or explanations(really, what other tutorials lack is understanding that we're here to practice, we don't need all the jibba jabba every single time we run it back. Lovely as all the fine people sharing love of this cheery instrument are, it's incredibly tedious to watch anyone count fingers after the very first time)... this is definitely the best tutorial I've seen BY FAR.
Having said that, I do just wish I could adjust the playback speed to give me time to fumble awkwardly while making the chord shapes as I baby step through this. No worries though. I can pause and write things down to practice till I'm ready to bring myself up to speed.
Seriously, a most sincere and hearty THANK YOU, you kind and merciful soul! This is absolute perfection!
You can adjust playback speed in the youtube settings cog-wheel thingy at the bottom right of the video! That's what I did! Hope that helps!

You dont really need that. I have had a little ukelele since i was like 3 but i have never tried playing seriously since it always was out of tune. But not i tried to tune it and i learnt the chords for this the first day.

try slowing down using the speed setting in the gear menu on the video!
I never knew that was there either ! Thanks

the reason why this song is so nostalgic to me is because Everytime i woke up from 4:30 am to prepare to go school i always hear this and it's so relaxing in the morning when i was a kid so when i hear this out of no where it made relax and reminiscing my childhood especially when there is rain and school is suspended
I'm trying to learn this version so that I can teach my granddaughters and one of their friends, (after I get back from my son's wedding in Hawaii next week)
Can you remake this and put the next chord that shows up next in the top left
ikr, any luck finding something that does that?
I wish it had this. Anyone find a version?
theres a downloadable pdf of the chords in the description
what this guy ^ said. please pretty please add the "next chord" feature of your later videos to this one. It would make a great video perfect.

Whew! That was awesome. I've been trying to learn how to strum and this is perfect.
Great video, super clear and SPECIFIC, which is a real help when teaching music.Thanks so much. Cheers from Oz,(Australia).
This is an amazing tutorial. Because my voice couldn't match how love the ukulele sounded, I put the capo on fret 2. Went perfectly!
Anyone know where I can find a pdf for the guitar melody that is going on in the background?
it's a picking pattern, maybe the owner of the channel could clarify it
same!
Standard reentrant tuning ( G C E A with high 4th ) in all tutorial videos.
Gracias, ha sido mi primer acercamiento al ukule y me gustó mucho, podrías hacer uno con la canción de, Mi Momento, de La Bala.
Gracias
I'm learning this song to play for someone on Valentine's day. Thank you, this is extremely helpful!!
Im only a teen but this tutorial makes the seemingly impossible song become easy.
This is the best song and it means a lot to me and my mum
Thanks for this tutorial,
This helped me the most :D
That transition was smooth af
If your seeing this and is kind of enough to help please reply, my girlfriend sings this song a lot and whenever I listen to it on UA-cam it reminds me of her, I was wondering if singing this while playing the ukulele to her would be a nice gift of some kind
Yeah, you should definitely do it! I think it would be a great gift to your GF. It's thoughtful, personal, sweet and special...all the needed elements to make the perfect gift! Let us know how it goes and what her reaction is, ok?
Ofc
Oh for sure man, go for it!
K3v1N562 how did it go 🍀
I got my first ukulele two days ago and can already play the song completely in original speed. The tutorial is really great!
Thank you so much! It's been 3 months almost and I can play it perfectly. I love playing the ukulele!
(I didn't practice the song everyday) I could play the first part pretty well in a week, so I just played other songs and stuff, but finally I can play it really well and sync my voice with it efortlessly while relaxing, which is what the ukulele is all about.
Can someone please help me? I've tried this stunning pattern but it sounds nothing like IZ's original version....
Rhiannon Hoffman same here they must have put it wrong
IZ's original version goes like this: Pluck 4th string(G), DOWN, up , down up, DOWN,up
so Pluck Down up down up Down up, also IZ had a low G string on the top.. )
It’s never gonna sound exactly like IZ’s cause he used crazy plucking and strumming techniques plus he used a tenor with a low g string which gives the original the swingy Hawaiian touch to it
Iz used a tenor uke tuned to low G...this guy gets it pretty close ua-cam.com/video/A-psZvNTSz4/v-deo.html
Rhiannon Hoffman the key to the song is the palm muting and using classical guitar strings ( black vinyl) to get the non metallic sound.
+Uke4U2 Hi! Im a 11 yr old and love the ukulele! I got my first last month! He (Iz) was my main inspiration, and his song Somewhere Over The Rainbow touched my heart. When I found out he died I was in a great depression. But eventually, I got over hit. Still to this day, his song is heartwarming. And I thought, after watching this, "Could you do a new one of this?" And so my question is, obviously, could you do a new one of this? One of my teachers will be judging in the talent show and I really hope I can learn this because that teacher loves this song as well! Well, ok thank you and good-bye!
Maybe you're aware that the original version was sung by a talented girl vocalist/actor from the movie the Wizard of Oz?
I got a ukelele due to quarantine. Hope I can play this song B4 I'm out of my house lol.
same
same
well... we are a few to have done the same thing
Samee😂😂

I play guitar and started ukulele and this is such a good tourtial for this song! I could get someone on my guitar and I on ukulele and make some good music👍Thank you alot this really helped lots of people learn ukulele thank you!❤️❤️
I know all the notes it’s just the strumming where I need to learn since I’m new to that strumming
When you buy a new ukulele, this song comes free with it

One of the Best tutorials. Clear, short, simple. Congratulaciones from Argentina
This is the MOST beautiful version of this song EVER!!!!
I can not download the chord sheet. Is there another link from where I can download?
Thanks you so much in advance :)
Does anyone know where I can find the tabs for the guitar part that plays over the chords?? Sounds absolutely beautiful

@@jensondavis4480 this is the chords on guitar I'm looking for the guitar part you can hear playing behind the ukulele in the video. But thanks for trying!
But it will sound better on ukelele
One more thing you can type the name of the chords on youtube
@@curtisclements7163 This sheet has tabs: www.guitarnick.com/over-the-rainbow-israel-iz-guitar-tab.html
My brain: I got the strumming pattern
My hand: no you don’t
Aaaaaaaah 😱
literally me: okay I've got the strumming down! me when I try to add in the words: oh no you don't
This was awemazing. Interactive and informative without much commentary. I re-learned how to play one of my fave songs on my uke! Thanks so much🙋♀️
Reallt enjoyed this tut. Glad you just got on with it - instead of a self indulgent five minute intro about interesting chord changes like some other videos do.
for anyone who is feeling discouraged, i just played along at half the speed and sounded like SHIT! totally awful, even at half speed! but im going to keep playing over and over until i can get the strumming pattern down, get the new chords right, and get this song to sound like the video at full tempo. just takes time and patience. stick with it, it's worth it! it doesn't have to be perfect the first time, the tenth time, or even the hundreth time. even Iz made mistakes when he learned to play!!!
You’re doing great king!
It’s not going to be way to learn and I’m sticking it out with you!

any chance to get the chord sheet? I think that link is broken (it's not loading for me). Thanks! Very good tutorial BTW...playing this song is one of my bucket list items, and you've moved me a long way toward that!
He put everything in the video. If you’re too lazy to write it down you’ll never learn to play.
@@bundiq He just ask, stop being toxic for no reason.
@@lumiel666 yeah wtf lmfao?
When I first got a uke this was the first song I tried to learn how to play it was a bit hard.
So if you are learning to play the uke for the first time I would advise you to learn to play "I don't know my name" by Grace Vanderwaal
Thanks guys I'm like Micheal a retired guitar player thought I get a ukulele for fun but it's great I have no problems watching you playing and play along thank you
