[@almeidadave1]

Omg! Thank you for going over the strumming! Being a beginner that's the hardest to figure out

[@SuperUkulele]

almeidadave1 You're always welcome! Thanks for watching my videos! ~Aaron

[@aaronpaterson1615]

There's certainly a bit of technique in playing ukulele for this song, Mister Maestro Israel Kamakawewo'ole with his big fingers certainly made it seem so simple. But that is what its all about, practise makes perfect, which than translates as easy once you mastered it. Fantastic lesson from you, thanks for sharing. AARON FROM AUSTRALIA.

[@kolorytrzy]

finally,somebody explained it to me:)thank u so much, the clearest explanation of strumming,me and my ukulele are grateful :)

[@CakesnakeFilms]

thank you for this, I like the sound when I pluck string one and string four at the same time as you do, sound's fuller and you still get that extra layer of sound

[@LillyLi1109]

Wonderful three different strumming patterns. Thank you very much!

[@maureentweedly]

Thanks for a very clear video on Iz's strum!!!

[@Cweaver7516]

this is so helpful! I had the chords but not the strum pattern, and now I have a few to decide from. Thank you!:)

[@griffeyjrfan]

You are an excellent teacher, making it so easy to understand! Thank you!

[@SuperUkulele]

Kimberly Retherford Thank you Kimberly. ~Aaron

[@maleeacasey4377]

Thank you for showing the different strumming patterns! This helps a lot 😁🤙

[@hosswilliams8902]

Thanks for this...now I know I've learned it all wrong ugh! This is the clearest tutorial I've seen....very helpful! Good job!

[@AlternatorKomutator]

Thank you, your strumming sounds really like IZ, I was looking for this!

[@SuperUkulele]

AlternatorKomutator You're welcome. And thank you my friend.

[@richardzilak5175]

Maaan big THANK YOU! This is exactly what I was looking for! I was still wondering how does IZ playing it that it sound soo awesome and now I know and can learn that too. Again thank you so much :)

[@lovedove2661]

Thank you for this, super helpful.

[@margadams]

You have such a gentle and encouraging way of teaching that makes me feel like I can actually do this even though I'm holding a uke for the first time! Thank you so much Aaron!

[@SuperUkulele]

You're welcome Margaret! Thanks!

[@alika207]

No, I know the song isn't reggae, but he plays it in a reggae style. Lots of people from Hawai'i are influenced by reggae music and have even developed their own style of music called Jawaiian music (a combination of Jamaican and Hawaiian). Some of the local Jawaiian jams are so much fun. Go check 'em out!

[@aruanaruan2586]

Good, the instruction is clear, thank you Sir

[@maryquint3254]

I always wanted to know how to say his name. What a talent he was💕

[@jenniferjoiewebster8927]

happy new year 2013! Hau'oli Makahiki Hou healing from a brain injury and the uke is so comforting and reconnecting me! Big mahalo!

[@alika207]

Nice rhythm, but may I make a few suggestions? Try plucking the G string by itself on the first beat, and then mute all the strings on that rest in the middle. I'm working on it off and on, but I think that's what gives it the reggae beat. Nice work though!

[@danulia]

Thank you for this video! :) really helpful !

[@ThangNguyen-xt8pj]

Thank you very much man!!! very clearly helpful for me. Finally I can do it but my uke is on high G so it sound not much interesting. Thanks again!

[@jp_the.idiotic]

Thank you! It makes much more sense!

[@SuperUkulele]

You bet! Have a great weekend.

[@christinewlin]

Great tutorial! Thanks!!

[@TehBuddaChris]

In the intro of the song I'm hearing a mute between the little pause in DDU UDU

[@burnedsock]

+Beautiful Emma Usually its not high or low its more of a middle note

[@ukuleleuniverse]

If your 4th string is tuned to a low g, you will need to buy a different gauge string to tune it to a high or standard re-entrant tuning.

[@ericbiddle7747]

Just started uke and having a great time. Your tutorial was great! Can you please let me know whether you're using a soprano or concert uke, and its brand and features? (you can tell I'm obviously new at this !!)

[@virginiabearden3912]

It seems so hard, but I will keep on til i get it! thanks

[@fuzzygoataj8199]

Thanks!

[@digomanda]

Thank you, great demo, what are the individual notes you are picking in your preferred strum pattern?

[@michaelkurpjuweit]

Can you post a link for a chord sheet? The one I found on uke tabs seems funny in the third stanza.

[@hangron814]

Thank you very much !!!

[@SuperUkulele]

You are welcome!

[@jay.wright]

Great lesson. Thanks. And where can we get a great shirt like that?

[@maybethistimenow]

Great video, very well presented. What size ukulele is that? And is it a suitable size for a beginner?

[@CoCoNutJuice691]

Nice!

[@SuperUkulele]

Thanks

[@distrachan2671]

hey! thank you so much!

[@zhangqun2865]

need a Low G string, and you can also use this struming pattern, Pick-U-D-U-mute-U-D-U

[@qqcascyful]

great leason!

[@SuperUkulele]

cincin Thanks so much! ~Aaron

[@princey_06]

May God bless you

[@5877user]

Following your instructions, mine sounds different. I get chord sounds from the up strum whereas you seem to get a definite chucking sound. Am I missing something? I've watched and listened very carefully to mine and yours.

[@taliasagermusic]

I suggest tightening the screws that are in the back of the knobs

[@tanishawellard8025]

Thank you!!!!

[@SuperUkulele]

You're welcome Tanisha! by the way you should see the updated video on how to strum like IZ in my channel. Works even better! ~Aaron

[@mikeyrockstar1]

What's the most commonly used tuning? I've been tuning like the four last strings on a guitar, but what's most common?

[@SuperUkulele]

MIKE D Standard Tuning is G,C,E,A

[@Kitsune81]

Very informative, ty!

[@SuperUkulele]

CharmingRogue Thanks! ~Aaron

[@dadonthetube]

Super Ukulele Excellent video! Your video helped me learn more about strumming than ten others combined! Thank you.

[@SuperUkulele]

dadonthetube That's awesome! Thanks for the nice comment:) ~Aaron

[@ikehelly]

well explained

[@aarondewindt]

Is it me or is your G-string tuned one octave lower?

[@dentai4]

love it thank you for that!

[@SuperUkulele]

dentai4 Sorry for this late reply! Must have slipped past me. Thank you so much. Hope you're still playing Uke! ~Aaron

[@purplepisces0316]

do you play the full pattern on each cord or do you split it up n if so could you please explain it to me at least with first line

[@BerkshireBirdParadise]

good job on hard lesson to get across

[@SuperUkulele]

Rolf Hansen Very late reply but thank you Rolf!

[@krazyjoe000]

Do you have the tab listed somewhere on ur website? It would be helpful

[@SuperUkulele]

J Rod I need to do that. That's a great suggestion. ~Aaron

[@jennabean2445]

the app guitar tabs or the website ultimate-guitar.com :)

[@capnsol]

This was great, thanks. Too bad I just restrung my uke for high G. :'(

[@savinlastname4643]

is that a tenor or concert uke? I'm a guitar player venturing into the Uke world. I just bought a Kala soprano and it feels just a little too small.

[@SuperUkulele]

Savin lastname this one is a Kala Tenor size. Model is KA-T. Hope this helps.

[@SuperUkulele]

Super Ukulele I have link right on the home page of my website for this exact Ukulele. Just visit www.superukulele.com and you'll see the link on the right hand side of the home page. It's a low priced good Uke. Hope this helps. ~Aaron

[@lonypuga]

what kind of kala ukulele do you have?

[@Dragonmasterkat]

Hey I'm trying to learn this song and the DDUUDU is how I was taught but it doesn't sound right through the whole song I was wondering what parts you could switch strum patterns on and also my thumb gets in the way when I'm holding the chords down and I can't find a comfortable place to put it? If that makes any sense. Great video though!! OH ALSO what chords do u use for this version I think I'm playing it differently.

[@SuperUkulele]

Hey Ekaterina! DDU UDU is a good way to start playing this song. To really sound like IZ when playing this song though you'll do some things a bit different. You incoorporate the thumb plucking the 4th string, and then it's pretty much DUDUDU after that. If you want to get even more technical, you'll pluck the 4th string with your thumb, then pluck the 3rd string with your index finger, then DU UDU. You can get even more technical than that, but start slow and simple then get more technical. Your thumb of your "ukulele hand" (left hand) should really only rest on the back of the neck without wrapping around the top in any way. For the chords just visit my channel homepage and find the video for "How To Play Somewhere Over The Rainbow". Hope this helps you and THANK YOU for the kind words too and any "likes" you may have left.

[@sultrysyl]

Your video is really very good! However your Uke was not tuned . Could you please tune it and hope to see lots more of you!

[@jennifervanover5271]

What chords are you strumming?

[@BuzzyWhitlowIndy]

Thank you. Your free ebook link is not working

[@SuperUkulele]

Soon to get back online. Thanks!

[@scottsmanrow]

which strum pattern does iz use?

[@elliotkempton9378]

would i have to buy a new ukulele for a low g, or could i just restring my current one?

[@robertkurtz6275]

You should be able to restring pretty much any ukulele with a low G. You can buy low G strings by themselves if your other strings are still okay, or get a whole set with the low G. In Hawaii, every music store seems to sell low G strings...on the mainland you might have to order online. (I was surprised to go to a Guitar Center in CA a while ago and find that they had never heard of such a thing....)

[@Paaaaascal]

what kind of tuning are you using? because my G is sounding more high than your fourth string

[@greenorangedaniel]

Pascal Mailhot Low G. More of a deeper sound. Just go to a Music Store & ask for a low G string for what ever size 'ukulele you have. facebook.com/green.orange.daniel/videos/709777165818501/?l=7060438170174930093 As you can see I was able to put it on my soprano (small) 'ukulele. Even though these are tenor strings. Since I don't know if they make low G's for soprano (small) 'ukuleles.

[@ivyerazo3832]

I really cant stop doing the down down up up down

[@pink9837]

Ivy Erazo same

[@micknewman1980]

Same😃

[@mikeyrockstar1]

How do they tune it in Hawaii

[@SuperUkulele]

MIKE D GCEA

[@ukuleleuniverse]

Mahalo.

[@davealmeida9786]

this played in low or high G

[@SuperUkulele]

Low G. Thanks. ~Aaron

[@davealmeida9786]

Super Ukulele thanks bud

[@dariamalygina5081]

спасибо!

[@SuperUkulele]

Дарья Малыгина Hi and thanks for watching! So sorry for the late reply! ~Aaron

[@G.Giorgio]

what is your tuning??

[@RikiRK]

gcea, but he's got a bigger sized ukulele i think it's a tenor, thats why its so low :)

[@mikeyrockstar1]

Please spend the time and let me know

[@mackdog85diesel2]

where is the audio??

[@SuperUkulele]

Alexander Jonesky Try it again. Seems to be working on my end. Thanks. ~Aaron

[@laurenaoki4501]

I can't get it. ;_;

[@artsychic09]

alone

[@mikeyrockstar1]

So many different tunings it's driving me crazy

[@mikeyrockstar1]

Please please please please help me

[@Melissa.Williams]

The tuning for most ukuleles is GCEA

[@SuperUkulele]

MIKE D Mike hows it coming? ~Aaron

[@artsychic09]

ofarfilite

[@b.m.r221]

No. Just NO. IT SOUNDS FUCKING NOTHING LIKE IZ

[@TimFoxUkulele]

Thanks! I watched other video tips on how to play these songs like IZ, but it seemed like there was something missing or the explanation / demo wasn't complete.

[@SuperUkulele]

Tim Fox Thank you Tim. ~Aaron

[@summerbeames9837]

Tim Fox

[@SuperUkulele]

Thanks!

[@artsychic09]

ofarfilite

[@sadie5083]

Props for learning how to say his name

[@kayfer25]

I'm strum challenged! But this video cleared up why the strum pattern I was using didn't sound like IZ's recording. Very helpful video. Thanks.

[@SuperUkulele]

Cheers bud:) You have a good week!

[@SuperUkulele]

Aaron...you are correct bud. It is tuned one octave lower because it's a "Low G string" which is different from the standard lighter G string that comes on the ukulele when you first purchase it. That's how IZ liked it for this song from what I've heard.

[@flourfriend]

I think your description about the dynamics really helped my strumming sound more like the song!!

[@xndreitx]

Thank you so much, I just got an Ukulele and your videos have been very helpful!! Cheers from Colombia!

[@BlinkinFirefly]

thank you for being so kind and teaching us! I learned something new today yayyyy!!

[@jemmens100]

can u please make a tutorial for "ill see you in my dreams" thanks

[@Astrox4422]

Okay got it up down up sideways left right triangle NAILED IT

[@Miss-K]

I dont know how long it would have taken me to figure that out on my own! I've seen lots of tutorials from others, but I found you right when I needed you, thank you!

[@SuperUkulele]

My pleasure Kate! Thanks for watching:) ~Aaron

[@amyc4556]

Hi Aaron, I don't understand how to tune the g-string one octave lower? Is it true I need to purchase a thicker string? Please let me know! Your tutorials have been very helpful so far!!! I really want to learn to play this song :)

[@SuperUkulele]

You're very welcome:)

[@kkahuna4263]

People always play this wrong its a jawaiian song so where is the rest???? By the way that is not the strum

[@trevis_8964]

Thank you for putting that backwards f chord in there cause not alot of people know

[@SuperUkulele]

No problem! You should check out the updated how to strum like IZ in my channel. Sounds even more accurate now! Thanks for watching!

[@Dion1957]

People overthink the strum. LISTENING ! That's the best teacher. I never had any lessons & I play 4 stringed instruments. Just have fun!

[@SuperUkulele]

Thats the key! Thanks and agreed. ~Aaron

[@playacordona4516]

Aloha… Can you tell me how to tune my G cord with my electronic tuner to be a low G so I can achieve the same sound when plucking the cord. This question may sound silly to a lot of people, but I just bought my uke 3 days ago, and don't know much yet :-) Love your tutorials by the way, I know with your help I will become a good uke player. I love my uke, love it !!!!

[@janinesyoutube1096]

You make it look so easy!!.. but with practice I am getting it.. I just stop and play it again and again and it is sinking in. THANKS SO VERY MUCH FOR THE VIDEOS... I like all of them!!

[@artsychic09]

wouldnt hurt anybody is u'd leave them alone

[@richardbradley1551]

Over all very good job, though I having trouble with the last strum you taught it sounds to me that your up down pattern is different, and I like that strum best, can't figure it out. thank you very much.

[@danielchow1975]

best tutorial i have found anywhere - thank you for this

[@SuperUkulele]

You're welcome. -Aaron

[@doesjesbedum]

Im using a DDUDU is that also possible?

[@georgcantor7172]

Awesome tutorial, with clear instructions. Would you be able to someday do a tutorial on the Beatles "Across the Universe"? There are some tutorials on youtube, but something is missing from them--they just don't sound like "Across the Universe." There is one video that sounds most like "Across the Universe," but it's not a tutorial (kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6KahomChpqLirs). Also, does Bruddah Iz pronounce his name kah-mah-kah-veevoh-olay or kah-mah-kah-vee-wall-ay? :/

[@wah12111]

That was Just Wonderful ,, Thanks so Much.. I think the next step for you is The Movies..
