"Nice and slow" then plays at full tempo

[@enricoamniat]

XD

[@RDL0404]

Yeah that was my thought exactly

[@gingerfish2000]

Me too. Mad. Also off-putting when the song is great with one tricky chord.

[@MEAxJUSTINCASE]

Let try it slow! (Plays really fucking fast)

[@Lurkur]

By far the best Ukulele teacher on youtube! Thanks for many brilliant videos.

[@TheUkuleleTeacher]

Haraldur Egilsson Thank you! Appreciate it :)

[@aleksasona9376]

+Haraldur Egilsson the greatest results that I have ever had was with the Arthurs Uke Blog (just google it) without a doubt the most helpful method i've tried.

[@bripez]

I kept meaning to learn this but i always struggled with the quick chord changes and the fast strumming pattern. After probably 5 times of trying to learn this, i have finally perfected it and i am so proud of myself 😊 great tutorial!

[@alejandroreinel9190]

Your singing has improved sooo much !! Job well done, keep it up!

[@dace6]

[@sfxjen10]

The Bare Necessities!!! Your tutorials were the final push in the "I should really get a uke. No more excuses!" decision. Am very much enjoying these tutorials, keep 'em coming!

[@chysayeh4043]
