That's badass.

David Mosier same
David Mosier you an me both bro😂
2 years ago, this video inspired me to start playing the ukulele. Today this video inspired me to do something else.
Maybe that's... drum 😅
close but no cookie
Sell the ukelele xD
And I watching 2 this 2 years later
But can he turn a drum into a ukelele?
Curd cant be turned back into milk
Well he sold his soul to the devil for mad skills so I suppose.
But can he turn water into wine?
But can you do thisssss
Worse question ever. Has no sense.... from where these people comes from
Me: Mom can I have drums
Mom: No, we have drums at home
Drums at home:
Billie Jackson by Michael Jean
Riley Edwards No. It's Chilli Beans by Jichael Mack's son.
Neil Ross OMG CHILLI BEANS
Neil Ross I coulda swore it was chilly jeans by Michelle hackson
No... Its Nickelback
darude sandstorm
He obviously sold his soul to the devil in exchange for the mad skills
So obvious.
Where can I sign up though?
The devil went down to Georgia after giving up on the fiddle. He thought that the ukulele was a toy and found a young chap to steal his soul. They had a ukulele competition. This guy got a concert sized uke, and Satan decided to give up on music. He now possess people to make them write crappy fan fiction. I was not one of them because Satan knows that I don't need help to write crappy half baked stories!

Yeah people these days believe that. A lame excuse for unskilled lazy suckers.
Yes. the song is Sandstorm - Darude.
No it's not. Its Billie Jean by Michael Jackson.

*This dude*: ~breathing~
*The crowd*: HAHAHAHAHAH
Yea lol hahaha
That was 2013, when not many people do that.
He earned that laugh! 👌
😂😂
Me read this comment
Hahha
And I'm just here trying to play an A minor note in tune...
bhavz89 Well considering the fact that there is no A minor note lol
+bhavz89 A minor chord? X3
SAME
the fact that there is no a minor note makes this ten times funnier
Chanoey333 aww 😂
He doesn't even need a loop pedal lol
Ale Lloveras the loop pedal needs him
I honestly thought he was using a loop pedal for a solid 3 seconds. It was just so seamless
@@Cowabungas me too
Ale Lloveras its bc he IS a loop pedal
Loop what??? 🙄
the father, the son, the holy spirit and this guy right here playing the ukulele
I would just walk around the streets playing that one beat, ,dressed up in a suit and glasses.
Just that you'd have to carry an amp around with you cause that's the only reason why the 'drums' sound so good.
that'd be great... i'd be running after you all day long :D
Dude, that would get you so famous
I first saw this in the first grade when my music teacher at my elementary school showed what we could do with ukuleles...ever since then I've been coming back to the video with amazement. I'm sure it hurts but this has got to be the coolest thing to do with an electric ukulele.
I just had to stare at the wall and reevaluate my life after watching this
Me too.
one of the best renditions of Billie Jean I've heard - great job!!
*Asks for a drum kit*
*Gets a ukulele:*
"I can make this work..."
But he cant...... would you actually listen to this crap? It doesn't sound good. He is using an instrument for something it wasn't designed for. This is pure showoff and nothing else.
@@asyncasync you're just jealous
@@randomnessuke9832 I'm not. I used to do beatboxing and got a lot of attention for it too. Later I realised that it leads nowhere and eventually everyone forgets you. It's the same kind of useless gimmick.
@@asyncasync why say it's crap
Jilly Bean by Jack Michaelson?
chilly beans by micheal hackston

I've watched this so many times and I never get tired of it
He is doing it like so easy :)
I am required by addiction to revisit this guy every couple of months. Entertainment at it's best.
THIS is how a ukulele should be played. Those Tumblr hipster people who sing in their breathy voice playing their basic chords made me so tired of the ukulele but you made me realize that the ukulele is actually a versatile, great instrument. You’re so talented. Keep it up!
I don't know which I love more, his uke skill or his sense of humor
The question is, can he do it while moonwalking
second the motion
How the heck does he play the chords and notes at the same tine
tf is you talking about lol
Funny thing is what hes doing isnt what you said. But what you said can still be done its called chord melody
coz' he's a legend.
Of course a 16-year-old SJW could handle this with enough practice - in fact, anyone could. Anyone could do it on guitar, too, given enough practice, so there's no need to be smug about it.
practice
how is that possible
practice
Jillian Cereal if you can see it. You can achieve it.
I can see the sun, it's grammatically impossible to achieve the sun. i smell tomfoolery
@@spike5347 but you can become a star.
@@Triumph633 shit
Billy JEEEAAAN!!!! Your a legened!!!! This is my first vid watching you I'm so happy
James Hill is my idol! I think he's one of the best uke'ers out there
Him in 2013: this is what all the kids are listening to these days
Me in 2019: oh I hear my grandparents listen to this at the old folks home
What the hell did I just see!!!! 😍 that was magical!
Sanchita Abrol Just what I thought 💭
James Hill! He's truly amazing.
You're truly amazing.
when God learns how to play ukulele
He quits because finds James Hill
Jesus himself
You know he’s great and all, but this guy just has mad skills
JK I’m not comparing
My song is similar..." billie jean king "
- I do it on a tennis racquet though.
this so cool!! broaden my perspective of what you can do with a ukulele. I'm just starting out but this is going to help me in the future. Thank You :)
Wow I’m amazed. This is incredible !
this is fucking magic
tf kind of witchcraft is dat.
I was sure he was faking it and playing a recording at first. Now I'm not so sure, seems it might actually be real.
@@atnfn Watch this ua-cam.com/video/tkvKAgvjQOA/v-deo.html
@@atnfn if you hold down ukulele strings a certain way they actually sound like that
you win the funniest joke contest my friend, may i say your competition was fierce
This is beyond amazing!
This so incredible it doesn't even seem real! How do you even do that!! Music is amazing!
I stopped the video for a bit to let him rest for a while
I thought your avatar was a hair on my screen. well done.
It’s like a beatboxing technique with the ukelele 😂
That's so cool, I love it!!
I finally found this video again. I have been looking for this video for 10 days now
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! GREAT!
0:34 love how there's this one guy who laughed at the joke.
😂
Dudeee, you so rude, you have to explain the Joke now, to all the others here! TELL US.
He is more talented in my mind than Jake and all the other players out there. Smart, creative, unique, inventive, funny, and offers so much more to me as a Ukulele player. Braveo and my hats off to you James Hill.
This man is amazing!!
He must've majored magical music in Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry!
Allie Ganata be my girlfriend, I'll show you a better magic. Just one year of time and "you and me" will become three... Are you in?
Rj Manddy tf is this ⬆️
You fuckin nerd
Could someone make a tutorial for this
It’s was damn awesome
U know this tone name
@@Amanmrzn777unfortunately no

I didn't even know you could do that, that's amazing!
In a workshop with James on Friday, then seeing him in concert. Sooooooo looking forward to Billy Jean - James Hill's cover is wicked, as you have seen the start of in this video!
James Hill at christmas 10 years old: Mom, I want a drumset
Christmas happens: Gets a Ukulele

*Amazing Drum Ukelele Playing Technique*
I am glad I stumbled upon this video, Watching this for the 27th time in this week.
Simply amazing !
2:41
Sounds like he's going into One More Time by Daft Punk, but I know that's just me. Cause I think One More Time is at a lower octave. Or a completely different chord. But that's just what came to mind at first.
BEAT IT! I lOVE PRINCE!!!
That is hilarious.
Erik Naranjo oh please tell me that was a joke 😂😂😂
Me too 🤙🏽
Corey Williams are you actually agreeing with him?
Friday Night's Out dw some people are retards on the internet and mindlessely agree that they like songs without knowing them
Just got some hope to get back and try some ukulele
That was amazing, I love it, para pap para
Normal people: strums
This mad lad: drums
There has to be electronics involved like a pedal or a looper or SOME- thing. BUT I don't care! ....Anybody that spends this amount of time generating original music from an instrument some view as " trivial" gets my respect.
thank you sir
I'm inspired. ... Need a ukulele shop right now!
That was amazing!!
Clearly that's "Immeasurable Foetal Mutilation" by Infant Annihilator
Monster Fukk any replie in 3 years . Hi
every time i watch this, im like "how is he doing this??"
terrific work
Learning to play the ukele. ..am loving it
Really like to see him play Billie Jean all the way thru, HE'S DAM GOOD.
I just got this in my recommendation sooo
That was so damn cool man. Thanks as a intermediate uke player myself. Fingers bruised and bleeding tonight!!!
That was cool !! M J. Tune. Love it.
Yeah that's good but can you play riptide?
I am just a beginner and then I watched that guy. I threw my ukulele.
dont give up keep strumming! Aloha
Superb.. Enjoying from MUMBAI.
This is just amazing
SHE'S JUST A GIRL WHO CLAIMS THAT I AM THE ONE
When looking at the cover art, I mistook him as Erlich Bachman
It’s called a thumbnail btw
hahaaa love it! Didn't knew that it's possible to do this percussive stuff on the ukulele :D
really amazing!!!
Me: Believes that I can play the ukulele very well
This guy:
Me: B-But that's illegal
“ookalehleh”
un melange de differantes et excelente technique..et d une extreme sympathie

Wow this is amazing
Mom can we have a drum set?
“No we have a drum set at home”
The drum set at home:
TK This is better than a drum set
metallica - entersandman
stairway to heaven
Toto
James Hill on of the best
Woah!love it ❤
Jake Shimabukuro
She's just a girl who says i now play the ukulele crying in the floor every night
honestly incredible
just had to research my old liked videos to find this golden piece of music...
2:39 Can you tell what song he's leading into?
Well, yes, seeing as at 1:41 he played a bassline that even a deaf person would instantly recognise
no, the second one is by daft punk. it started as billie jeans then "harder better faster stronger"
@@noredine Nope. It's still Billie Jean (hint: watch his other live performances of this song)
@@Kyrelel i meant specifically after 2:41, it reminds me of ua-cam.com/video/GDpmVUEjagg/v-deo.html
He was right about it hurting your finger.
Ow.
this is awesome😍
you are amazing!
Darude - Sandstorm
qHAHAHAH
José Manuel Parrilla López-Brea lol, u troller
Prince Reyes another rude person
another Da*rude* person Sandstorm
I think he is leading into "Harder, better, faster, stronger" by Daft Punk
Not sure if joking or serious... (imagine a picture of Fry)
OttoNL Da-dat-dat-dat D,don't kill me, can only makes us stronger. Man, I been waiting all night now, and I can't wait much longer.
Its obv billie jean

This is so cool I need to master uke like him
THAT IS SO FREAKING COOL OMG
