Kalei Gamiao -"Viva La Vida" Coldplay- Ukulele Instrumental

[@joshclift5889]

This guy makes me want to drop whatever I’m doing and start learning ukulele

[@joetommagnus1307]

I did it!

[@MAJORGUY1]

@@joetommagnus1307 me too! Lol its worth it.

[@adhfiksosiruwjwjeje]

It’s incredibly fun and not too difficult to learn! Would totally recommend my dude :)

[@lonelyberg1808]

Did you learn how to play

[@deppermightbeit]

Not worth learning the ukulele

[@KateSellickDoesStuff]

It sounds like a completely different song. In the best kind of way.

[@muaraalatasmarbun8331]

Agree with you

[@dwayneworthy2946]

Damn the boys good!!! The best actually and a super modest. One cool & ultra talented braddah. Got to meet him this weekend and for being as amazing as he is ... hes so humble. I'm a huge fan 🤙

[@bradleykosa9470]

Kalei is one of my favorite ukulele players. This is a great song

[@화통-i8q]

So good.. The fan.. Thank you..!!

[@peppepino8470]

you do not sound ..... you express love and emotions thanks for existing

[@TracyLiss]

Had an opportunity to see him when I was on vacation at the Sheraton Waikiki. He is awesome!!

[@cheapelementaryschoolpizza5286]

I take my hat off to you sir. 👌🏻

[@MisosorryXD]

Genji Boi you don't understand his hat

[@camachoxvi8356]

Odd Future its a compliment

[@MisosorryXD]

DarkA Ware oh shit my bad lol

[@cathytran4626]

I was expecting a tutorial with a few chords, but then you destroyed that with your awesome uke playing haha

[@Starboy-vj5jp]

[@whittakerdilworth5267]

Imagine this same song. Same arrangement and everything, but done by a group of ukulele players with this guy at the center doing the solos... 🔥🔥🔥

[@kyleb737]

The fact that he gets into the music and grooves with it makes it 10x better

[@talithabrooke1358]

Absolutely amazing! Gorgeous ukulele... I don't know how many times I've listened to this cover?! I LOVE it xx

[@LateNiteRendezvous]

This video is a few years old but it puts a big smile on my face every time I watch it.

[@lucasteh1337]

The strumming, the picking, the smile, the video effect, the passion.. instant classic!!!

[@walterfingerstyle]

Fantastic :) and what a gorgeous ukelele!

[@chillilover8345]

I first searched for 'cant take my eyes off you' now, I'm here. I like how you use the looper and make the ukulele more casual and less folk. I just wanted to let you know what you're doing is amazing, keep enjoying what you do! Magic!!

[@imstillhere2587]

Me too!

[@NFS-shade]

Where do i find this looper function

[@trusoljahs]

My favorite song on my favorite instrument. Best cover ever for this song. Mahalo bro for sharing.

[@digitalfrancisful]

Mahalo nui loa, this warms my spirits and brings joys even in frozen Canada! E pili mau na pomaika`i ia `oe

[@LazyEinstein]

I am constantly coming back to this song over the months and years. Amazing amazing song. So well done

[@dosentmeanforever17]

I love the way he just grooves to the music (: HEH.

Thank you

[@coralinejones5538]

thx 4 blessing my soul

[@tedying6030]

I assume you have seen the minecraft video "Fallen Kingdom" which is based on this version of the song. If you haven't, you should. My kids love it. It's the first of a four-part story of minecraft based parodies. All four are good.

[@tessa1935]

Wait that aren't the lyrics

We'll that went in an unexpected direction. Loved it.

[@emilyenegrette]

omg, this is the most incredible ukelele instrumental i´ve ever heard. Keep working hard, you´re killing it!!

[@filmgirlpipes]

Wowzah! That just kicks ukulele sexiness to a whole new level now doesn't it? Mind blowing...He just turned a song into art.

[@beezesty]

My ears and I stand in utter and complete awe. This is unearthly.

[@Rascallucci]

Best cover I've heard across all instruments, period!!

[@Archtops]

Unbelievable!! That sets the standard for excellent ukulele playing and being a fantastic musician!

[@sonofrat]

I went by the shop several weeks ago and he changed the strings on my Raymond Rapozo tenor. The guy is humble and down to earth…and he can play the ukulele like wow.

[@kylegar123]

Kalei's ukulele playing is so extremely amazing. He has been given such an amazing amount a talent. Truly a ukulele player to look to.

[@defaultcity]

You are totally amazing, dude, and the sound of your instrument is pure heaven!

[@willg0opl]

Blown away by the tone of that instrument, but.... boy, that is superb technique and interpretation!

[@livinglife1371]

It's ridiculous how cool this tune is! I bought a ukulele a month ago and this reminds me how far I truly am. Thanks!

[@GamerRyan45]

not one part of me could play this but man was I imagining jamming out on the ukulele to this. Great work!

[@DJKorosiv]

@2:36 he hits those cords and is like "aw fuck ya"

[@pacomo478]

And again @3:27

[@pacomo478]

And @3:55

[@TheLegendaryMagic]

you can really see the love and respect he has for that instrument

[@debbieplish9471]

We could listen to this over and over again...Beautiful and you are so talented and amazing.

[@bumblebee5926]

I don’t understand the “thumbs down”. He played outstandingly!!! I loved it....so sorry for envious people.

[@dylans9052]

This guy is killer in the best sense of the word, what an awesome rendition!

[@mikkochestnut269]

Love this music! Outstanding job bro! I haven't felt this much excited about the ukulele since I heard Jake Shimabukuro's guitar gently weeps.. Awesome playin!! :)

[@philiphexter8618]

Makes me smile - I've never heard Coldplay - but love this! BTW - I bought a Pono MGT-K after hearing Kalei playing one - I want my money back! It doesn't sound like you playing, when I play it!

[@deepriverbluesband1957]

Played this with 100 other ukulele folks, James Hill directing. Harrison Hot Springs get together several years ago. James said the dynamic should be Epic. That's hard to do with a uke, or even 100 of them. You pulled it off!

[@shanehilden7416]

Terrific!.....and I love his hat!

[@cryptocooler5281]

Right on the mark... well played.

[@Teglas1]

Thank you for asking him to play a tune.

[@defaultcity]

Liked and subbed! You're a brillian virtuouso man! keep up the great work!

[@HiHoRC]

It's amazing that he gives the ukulele an almost electric sound.

[@okmarshall]

He is connected to an amp so it IS an electric sound.

[@HiHoRC]

meaning that it doesn't sound like a ukulele anymore, lol

[@ukulelechriswilson]

I show this again. Good performer Maestro Kalei.

[@manakonemaia9718]

O M G! Will be listening to this for days! So much love for this right here!💪
