[@qweqewre618]

Teacher: Get your instruments out of your backpacks, we'll do a shot at topic. Classmates: takes out ukuleles Quiet kid: takes out pistol

[@ElliotWatever]

I guess you just tried to be funny. Wrong subject though...

[@qweqewre618]

@@ElliotWatever Well, as non-english speaker, I was surprised when I found out what this song is about. Funny melody and cruel content. Good for jokes imo. There is no need to sulk. Nonetheless, you made a great ukulele lesson which I appreciate and will definitely use when mine ukulele arrives. Wish you all the best!

[@ElliotWatever]

That's what makes it interesting imo. Don't get me wrong but I get so many disturbing comments about killing school kids on this video so I'm just pretty fed up with it. But I still appreciate it man. I hope you have fun with your ukulele :)

[@fernandalima2118]

Looks so easy, and trying is more! You explain, show me that's isn't so hard 😱

[@ElliotWatever]

+Fezoca Lima True! You can learn everything if you take your time and split the whole thing up into pieces :) Good luck!

[@fernandalima2118]

Cookies Music Thank you very much! You helped me so much! 😁 Stay making videos, you're awesome :3

[@ElliotWatever]

+Fezoca Lima I'm glad I could help you :) Thank you very much!

[@StephenHalbhuber30]

I need more of these to more songs please

[@ElliotWatever]

+Stephen Halbhuber Do you think i could get you to learn ukulele? :P

[@StephenHalbhuber30]

Yes I was playing around with talks one and I think I could play one

[@ElliotWatever]

That would be awesome! It's so fun to learn an instrument :D

[@vargazzdlh]

Thank you for share , very nice tutorial

[@ElliotWatever]

+jorge vargas Thank you man! I'm glad it was helpful to so many people so far 😄

[@krystofstaud8289]

Well.. one day it had to come.. bar f demon guitar like ukulele chord 😅. Great vid, thx

[@ElliotWatever]

Hahaha 😂 Sometimes it's good to face your demons, you know^^

[@lydiafox4954]

really easy and helpful tutorial but I struggled when it came to the chords for the verse, just wondering if there were any easier substitutes? otherwise a massive thumbs up 😁🖒

[@ElliotWatever]

Thank you for your kind words! Sure thing. If you have a capo you could mount it on the first fret. Then you would have these four chords to play along: Em - G - D - A :) Have a great day :D

[@lydiafox4954]

Cookies Music thanks heaps I'll give it ago 😊

[@xxrossaaxx2043]

Cookies Music I also found that the chords Dm, F, C, and G work fine with the strruming of DDU UDU

Sounds better than the regular Dm-F-C-Gm but ring finger hurts. Thx pal

[@ElliotWatever]

I think so too! That's the price you gotta pay :P You're welcome :)

[@Martaabellanm]

my hand is DEEEEAD after this

[@ElliotWatever]

But It'll be worth it ;)

[@ANAHI98ily]

Spent my whole off trying to learn this and still can't 😞

[@ElliotWatever]

Don't force it! Some learn quicker than others but the key is to always keep pushing :) I think you can do it, just put some more time into it... The most efficient way how I learn songs is to split them up and learn it step by step. Don't forget that you revisit everything you've learned when you sleep! So keep at it and watch yourself getting closer to your goal every day :)

[@hejomendoza7423]

Thanks! You are awesome

[@ElliotWatever]

+Hejo Mendoza You're welcome! Thank you :D

[@benaaronmusic]

Great lesson, Armin.

[@ElliotWatever]

+Ben Aaron Thank you Ben :D

[@benaaronmusic]

Yeah, this should be a popular video.

[@ElliotWatever]

Somebody asked me to explain it and since i couldn't find a good video about it on youtube i made one myself^^ We'll see hahaha

[@kjablonski2697]

I just learned! Easy with your help, Thank you!

[@ElliotWatever]

+k niedzwiedz I'm glad my video was helpful!

[@hannahwilliams5995]

how have you tuned your ukulele? as the chords on mine don't sound the same as yours? I have the basic GCEA tuning on mine

[@ElliotWatever]

Does it sound different? I think I tuned my uke before recording. This song is played in the GCEA tuning. For reference points hold onto the original song!

[@dylan6325]

you earned a new sub (:

[@ElliotWatever]

+Dylan Allan Thank you :)

[@NouYunho]

THANK YOU SO MUCH xoxoxo

[@ElliotWatever]

+Eldest Nou No problem man :) Have a great day!

[@artic9988]

I find it a little bit hard to play for the verses and chorus , i don't know all note yet , i started playing recently but in 5 minutes i could learn the intro, maybe you could show some point on the uke for the note to help people understand, that is just some advice other than that really nice tutorial ! And a really nice voice when you sing . Have a god day

[@ElliotWatever]

+ArTic Do you mean I should show the tab of how every chord is built? I tried to target that point just briefly in the video, so I understand that it might be not enough for some. I will try to incorporate it more in the next tutorials I put out :) Thanks for the feedback!

[@jacobjeffrey7326]

It’s a really great tutorial but my fingers are too short to be able hit some of the chords

[@ElliotWatever]

You might think they are. You probably just have to get used to the finger positions! I remember thinking I will never get the intro to under the bridge because my finger were too short^^ And here I am ☺

[@graveyard_wonderland]

*How do you bar the whole thing? I NEVER CAN KEEP MY FINGER PRESSED DOWN*

[@ElliotWatever]

Maybe keep an eye on your thumb that has to press against the neck the uke! Play a bit around and see if the position fits. Everything's practice! But I wish somebody had told me about the thumb when I was struggling 😉

[@antgabe404]

Im having trouble with the strum what is it with the chuck?

[@ElliotWatever]

First of you have to get the strumming motion going and then you can think about the chuck. Try to feel it. It's just weird at first but you'll get the hang of it :)

[@js-cx1fd]

this is aweosme thank u

[@ElliotWatever]

+jill scrivana Thanks! I'm glad you like it :)

[@js-cx1fd]

Cookies Music absolutly! i wanted to learn this intro and then use the easier chords, em, g , d and.a chords but they dont sound right, looks like i will need to practice my barres lol

[@ElliotWatever]

jill scrivana It will be worth it though ;)

[@kod4062]

I can play this song now... but there's nothing on the 6th fret in the fm cord right? lil mistake there

[@ElliotWatever]

That's awesome! Yeah I re-watched it now, that was my mistake! The pinky is on the 5th fret second string^^ That's why I always show how I play the chords, otherwise people would learn the wrong shapes xD

[@Sof-zk6tu]

well I'm least i'm trying to play this song, in a week i'm sure i'll be able to play this song

[@ElliotWatever]

[@alexishartshorn]

I can’t even do the intro I get confused on what number the strings are 😞

[@ElliotWatever]

Don't get discouraged by that. Try to slow it down and play that riff every day like for 10 minutes or so. It doesn't have to be a time intensive practice! You'll see that you will get better every time :)

[@alexishartshorn]

Cookies Music I finally go it thank you so much!☺️

[@ElliotWatever]

Hey that's awesome! See, you can do it 🙌🏼

[@frida4414]

My grandpa has been playing his guitar his entire life and my ukulele is out of tune and I can't tune it ;-;

It cinda hard but I got it thank you

[@ricoadinugroho4465]

What's a tuning???

[@ElliotWatever]

Think of it as a setting on every guitar string! There are many tunings for string instruments and they can produce different sounds. Usually I play songs in the standard tuning though.

[@ricoadinugroho4465]

Cookies Music Ok thanks

[@chizhang3263]

i need stronger left hand !!!!!

[@ElliotWatever]

I know what you mean 😅 Be patient, your hand will get stronger!

[@amytaylor5575]

This is a bad tutorial because half the time you can't even see the ukilai or understand what he means by way that or this but a good song

[@ElliotWatever]

This is a "bad" comment because I don't understand your arguments. Don't get me wrong I'm all up for constructive criticism but it looks like you've made an effort to write something and then totally gave up in the middle of your comment 🙈 Maybe next time you try to read the comment out loud and see if it makes sense to you. That's a great way to correct sentences like that. See that's a constructive criticism of your comment. Have a great day :)

[@gabriell4519]

I can't do the strummimg part

[@ElliotWatever]

+Gabriell 451 Be patient! Remember you don't have to do it at my speed level right away. Start slowly and practice the chord chances. Then crank it up a notch. (A metronome is pretty helpful with that :D)

[@sydneyquintana7024]

instead of shooting kids imma play the kids

[@povids4827]

[@shybread315]

i have very small hands, all i think this is literally impossible for me to play (well).

[@ElliotWatever]

+Neva Ymaxe Mind over matter! You can do it, you just need to train your brain/hand coordination. I'm sure :)

[@Djungelunge]

I have small hands as well, and like the dude said, just train your hand coordination and you'll get used to it eventually :)
