Across the Universe (Beatles cover), Austin Ukulele Society

At our May 11, 2023 meeting we played and sang the Beatles' haunting and lovely ballad "Across the Universe." Many, many thanks to all who came out to strum and sing so beautifully! Special thanks to Aaron Lewis for joining us on bass.

Such an inspiring group of ukers! ❤Congratulations to everyone. Well done. Special congrats and gratitude to the folks who put these videos together. Bob, a heartfelt thank-you for your big commitment in bring ukulele fun to everyone, your lessons on how to play the songs, and your generosity of sharing. The best part is all the hooting, cheering, clapping and enthusiasm at the end! Much appreciation from a beginner who watched for a year before picking up a uke a month ago. (I can almost manage to follow your Margaritaville video at half speed now) but I will get there following great content as Austin Ukulele Society puts out. What a legacy.

Great job everyone! Any way to get the words on the screen at the same time? Closed caption/subtitles seems to be unavailable.

[@goo83]

wonder what john would think if ge saw this. what a song to make a room full of people come together

[@PhilLewis-xg7iv]

If john was alive, trust me, he would turn up with a uke and join in. He would 100% approve. Because you're amazing.

[@arielarevalo6285]

Extraordinario sonido gracias a Dios por permitirme escuchar esta melodía de los genios de liverpooo...

[@Mostafa20268]

John Lennon is smiling to you from Heaven.. can Imagine that !

[@MegaPlexy]

3:02 on > you can the bassist. too

[@AustinUkuleleSociety]

Aaron is a terrific bassist!

[@luisacastro6033]

Oooooh...

[@incorrigiblycuriousD61]

I propose that children learn the ukulele and maybe NOT the recorder. I think many parents will agree with me. Learning recorder is cringe, but this is fun. What is the ukulele equivalent of bassist or pianists? Do you call yourself ukulelers or ukulelears?

[@martinottley2395]

Ukeist 😉

[@jeremiahanyanjielevatorman3520]

Are you guys the ukulele orchestra?
