Intermediate Uke Tutorial - Is This Love (Bob Marley)

[@aaronpaterson1615]

I never did a tutorial for IS THIS LOVE...but did do a play-a-long to a demo of Bob Marley's band playing this song....slightly different from this lesson.....you sing much better than me...that's why I am strumming and picking along with IS THIS LOVE....Cheers, Aaron from Australia.

I'm from Carbondale, Illinois. It's a small college town in southern Illinois. My family recently visited Hanalei, Hawaii on the Island of Kauai, where I got my uke! And we are moving there this fall. We have the same model of uke.

[@mjb7198]

Awesome! I love your tutorials thanks so much for taking the time to teach us.

[@lennysaveslives]

Hi Thu! So glad you are learning from my videos, keep up the good work! Singing and playing is tough, the main thing is to make sure you can sing the song confidently while keeping the beat with your strumming hand. Listen to the recording of the song and tap along, sing the words until you build that coordination. Then strum the beat out simply while singing the song (don't use the difficult strum pattern). Once you have that coordination, add the strum pattern slowly and jam out! gluck!

[@thegerniebegins8078]

[@kacpermichalski7851]

Amazing tutorial!! Perfect attitude towards a audience :D

[@asustal]

Love these intermediate tutorials Lenny. Are you thinking about adding more intermediate tutorials on great songs like "Let's Get Together" (strum pattern is killing me) or "Honey Baby/Drop Baby Drop?" That would be some kind of awesome. I know people are throwing requests at you left and right. Take it as a compliment, as it just means that people are diggin' what you're sharing. Ingat ka!

[@matiasvalor01]

Its just me or the audio is really low ?

[@LorenLorenMacoMaco]

this really helped thanks

[@J_R3MY]

Great tutorial! But I'd really appreciate it if you could've included the same intro you had in your cover video.

[@metalmonster34]

Jeremy Lam did you watch the whole video? he covers the intro at the end.

[@cristiansoto6337]

Very good bro !!

[@gcvictorgc]

thaaanks a lot! we need more intermediate tutorials! :)

[@EliaPacioPacini]

You are the best of the bests. From Italy ;D

[@danielserafio8996]

i love u so much man thank you

[@kokodona4043]

big thanks....good

[@atlasunlock]

In the intro, after I strum the barred D chord, I'm supposed to pluck the 2nd, 3rd, and end on the 4th string(G string). However, I have a low G string. It doesn't sound right when plucking the low G string. Can you suggest an alternate string or note to use instead? Thanks!!!

[@zeazima]

Please make a tutorial for 'Bad Boys' - Bob Marley one day, thanks!

[@Trisistema]

I Love You! Thank...

[@nadiraulimasari2702]

In love with your laugh

[@ukulenny]

Hey Arman! I did a tutorial on Honey Baby so you can probably search for that. Perhaps I should do one on Let's Stay Together, it's a little funk groove with chucks on 2 and 4 but yeah, sometimes the strumming in between is challenging.

[@ukulenny]

that is awesome! yeah kala makes some good ukes. so cool that you're going out to kauai, i haven't been yet but i'm definitely thinking of visiting sometime in the near future. maybe we can jam when i get there =)

[@tiffanymiglia]

I'm really confused by what he means when he says one one for the chord after Am... what chord is that? can someone reach and help a sister pls thanks :) xo

[@SwiiGenesis]

+TIFFANY C. MIGLIALO you just reverse the Am chord and, your index finger will be on the first fret G string and your middle finger to the 2nd fret C string :)

[@tiffanymiglia]

Ah okay I understand now, thank you so much :)

[@SwiiGenesis]

+TIFFANY C. MIGLIALO You're welcome! Omg, I was trying to learn Love Yourself a few weeks ago and yours was the first tutorial I checked out! I loved your cover by the way. Keep it up!

[@tiffanymiglia]

Haha aww woah what a small world! Thank you and yes I will :)

[@HannahHeartless2208]

I love your videos!!! Sooooo helpful! Could you do a tutorial over Hey Jude by The Beatles? It's my favorite song ever and I would be sooo greatful!!

[@rudyramirezjr2309]

Could you do a tutorial on 'Three Little Birds' please?

[@Ukuleledaddy]

This is fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing your talents. BTW, I'm in the Bay Area this week and next, are you playing any shows?

[@AugustoBuccafusco]

great mennnn

[@AngelMorales-qn8bf]

Hi Lenny I know it's been a While would you mind explaining the last part of the intro where you jump into the verse? Awesome tutorial btw 😍

[@nayomihathu4377]

Please can you do a tut of eternal flame by yhe bangles?

[@ThuSokol]

I love your tutorials as they are so comprehensive. I've just started learning to play and I've by far made the most progress from your videos and tabs. The one thing I'm struggling with most is how to sing along with my playing. I can do them separately but as soon as I try and put it together it all goes to s*** o.O Any advice or tips on that?

[@leylaguzelhan9126]

love it :)

[@ericborkiewicz8186]

Can you go over the chunking and strum pattern again? Or go over it in another video? I can't seem to get it down while changing chords.

[@dariasinabela5173]

lv it.....tq

[@animatelife]

Reeeally awesome Tuto dude! I'm gonna be up all night practicing this! (lol'd at the 'question mark ending' and '2nd string from your face'! :D)

[@bellawest2218]

can you redo this cover with the chord visuals please?

[@ChamboissAndCo]

Thkssssss

[@felipelozada1980]

Hi Lenny, please help me with de 4th chord, I can't understand it thanks

[@georgejolepino1967]

I appreciate you and your face(: thanks

[@TheFrenchdoitbetter]

Nice kitchen my friend

[@pandaboy556]

Lenny! Where are you from??

[@ukulenny]

@pandaboy556 I'm originally from San Diego and now living in the East Bay! where you from?

[@adinplay]

Жаль я не понимаю что Вы говорите. Но мне понравилось как Вы спели ;)

[@babba01]

CAN SOMEONE VERY PLEASE WRITE CHORDS OF THIS SONG HERE ? I care a lot about that because I do not understand everything but try

[@Gentleape21]

Is that a baritone ukulele?

[@btrue2urgroove9]

maaaaaaaaaan i'm get super confused when you start talking about the intro! I understood everything else and was so stoked! But I'm stumped. Can anyone help me out?

[@lucasjohansson7722]

Tanks ah

[@12nerdynerd12]

I this is 4/4 time. Or 3/4 cause when you started to play sand show the timing you said "123 another bar " but just by saying another bar it could be another beat

[@Nt55]

Man, this is an awesome cover and I am heartbroken that my soprano uke has only 12 frets. It seriously blocks me from the climate of the song. There are the two chords that are : 14 16 14 and 14 14 14 x 14 There is a workaround to the first of those chords. It is constructed from D, F#, and B, which can also be played in inverted form on 9 10 11 x It isn't the same, but still works alright. Unfortunately, it isn't of much use the workaround for the second chord isn't possible :'(

[@faf314]

id just like to know, what kind of strings do you use?

[@kinou506]

struggling to get the chuck right. is d-x-ududu ? thanks !

[@bibs2596]

I'm having a hard time with the strumming pattern...like on what strokes to chuck

[@JUNOac]

[@lucianofernandez7531]
