      That's because it's a phenomenon where maybe one or two people post semi-hate, someone defends him, and then suddenly someone sees the defence, and without reading the hate, repeats the defence. So on and so forth, people see defence against hate, and start defending him too, without even looking at the hate, which at this point is drowned out and barely exists, if it even existed in the first place.

    I'm just learning the uke so this is what it sounded and looked like to me. I kept trying F as the quad, but it never sounded right or similar to what he played. A- major was the closest. Also, while he played, I noticed extra strums or placeholder strums (not sure what they're called) , so I added them into my notes, bc it sounded WAY better.

    I completely enjoyed and followed this tutorial until about the 12:30 minute mark. he never discussed cord progressions!! which was a little frustrating, just meant I had to look REALLY hard at his fingers while he was playing. I eventually figured it out but it certainly would’ve been helpful if he went over it in the video! lovely song and I’m glad I found it.

    Hi...you have no idea how inspiring you are. I am a 61 year old female from the UK and I am trying to teach my 11 year old students to play simple songs on the ukulele. I was stuck in the CFGC zone and found it hard to move forward. I found your song about a year ago, tried to play it and gave up. I recently went back to it and love it SO much, it made me come out of my comfort zone, I have persevered and now practise far more chords. I can now play this and am so proud! Thank you so much for your tutorials. x

    Ok, so I'm a newby when it comes to uke playing, & have been watching tons of tutorials. This guy, so far, is my absolute favorite! Your camera angles of what you are doing is spot on. You don't waste MY time with mindless chatter & get to the point. You present the chords & strumming patterns, give helpful hints along the way, & move on to putting it all together... slower speed, then up to tempo. Can't speak for anyone else's learning patterns.... but as for myself, I'm digging your UA-cam teaching style, & look forward to checking out more of your videos (after this lesson sinks in a little more ~ lol). Thank you, for putting in time to do this... I have benefited!!! :)

    Thanks for the comprehensive song tutorial! Was up and playing the full thing smoothly in 20ish minutes. For future reference, I think it would help beginners if you put up the chords whilst doing the play along. Other people also might find it helpful if you put a summary of each section and then combine the summaries at the end as well.
