this makes me want to go back to december and when everything was fine, i was happy and me and my sister would ride around while it was peacefully snowing and blast this song multiple times. this makes me feel at peace. it reminds me of when my father was here and i would come home to him after listening to this on my way back from school. good memories. it's sad how those are just memories and there isn't much i can do now except think back.
I know this is 5 years ago, but im listening to it now, and this is absolutely beautiful. Your voice and your playing is so emotional and I felt so great hearing you play this.

My, that video description perfectly encapsulates what goes on through my mind when I'm listening to this song and that whiskey is finally beginning to kick in.
something about ya shi's covers makes me feel … less alone. i can't describe it. they're so comforting. i've been going back to these for years because they make me smile on sad days. thank you ya shi… ♡
I think shoulder length hair is the greatest thing man has ever seen. Also thank you for uploading this beautiful cover, I'm going to listen to this on a rainy day soon :)
You're my new favorite cover artist! If you could do a song by the Smiths, Grizzly Bear or Daniel Johnston or Unfuck the World by Angel Olsen I would go fuckin nuts but honestly I'd be stoked regardless of what you decide to put out you're incredible!
Wow. I wish I saw this earlier, your music is absolutely stunning. The emotion in your voice, it's so smooth. Your playing is also incredible and I hope that you update more often. I hope you're still on youtube and consider posting because I would be such a dedicated listener. I subscribed as soon as I heard your first cover and I think you're a stunning person with a beautiful voice, playing skills and in general gorgeous.
I just came upon this the other day. I'd love to hear more songs by you. It would appear that you are playing a left hand uke, or is that a mirror image? - Do you have tab for your strum? - Is your ukelele strung the normal way?
I thought you were crying in the middle and I was like “honey that’s a big mood” (Also I’m going to listen to this song and crying because it’s good) (YeH okay I know sPelliNg ErrOr😑)
Wow! Excellent cover, and very well recorded. The sound is great. Mic? Software? You sing with such feeling. This was one of the first songs I posted. Thanks for sharing this.
Hi, I hope it is not too late to ask but I am really interested in knowing what chords you are playing for this song, in your voice it sounds like music from heaven

It would appear that you are playing a left hand uke, or is that a mirror image?
- Do you have tab for your strum?
- Is your ukelele strung the normal
way?

Bravo mademoiselle pour cette interprétation
I thought you were crying in the middle and I was like “honey that’s a big mood”
(Also I’m going to listen to this song and crying because it’s good)
(YeH okay I know sPelliNg ErrOr😑)
This version of "First Day of My Life" could have been the first track on Sgt. Pepper.
This is really good! What did you record the audio with? I know its late lol
So beautiful 💕
Wow! Excellent cover, and very well recorded. The sound is great. Mic? Software? You sing with such feeling. This was one of the first songs I posted. Thanks for sharing this.
thank you so much! i use the mic on my earphones and the audio gets fed into garageband where i clean up the background noise slightly.
After you clean it up in Garageband, how do you marry it back up to the video. I thought Garageband was just for audio.
yep! so i export the audio track from garageband and then match it back up to the video in imovie, replacing the audio track!
thanks very much for your very informative reply. I appreciate it. I love your stuff.
Yoo like 5 of the songs on my recommended are ones on my Playlist and I just found your channel
i'm thankful for the youtube recommandation ♥
