One of my favorite Bacharach songs….

YouTube Channel: PhilDoleman

His Notes: Say a Little Prayer, played chord/melody style on the uke, for the Ukulele Cosmos invitational, June 2011.
Hurriedly put together (some bits are still partially improvised), and recorded in one take, in the dark, between my kids waking up and wanting a glass of water.

Ah, youth….

YouTube Channel: 3FACTR

Their Notes: Denton Latham (13) and his friend Miranda do an impromptu rendition of You and I by Ingrid Michaelson. Denton’s playing a Mainland Mahogany Tenor ukulele and Miranda has an Washburn Mahogany Concert. A little fast, but pretty fun.

Okay, I am really looking forward to the album now….

YouTube Channel: Sheepstar15

Her Notes: I haven’t posted for ages, so here’s a quick one-taker. I messed up the chords at one point, but am posting anyway :)

This is a request from John Irving – see his fab cover here:

A beautiful song from Eddie Vedder’s forthcoming album “Ukulele Songs” out at the end of May. I don’t even pretend to do it justice, but it’s a lovely song to play.

Tabs from Ukulele Hunt:

Her Notes: Not my best cover – my ukulele is being a butthole lately. Oh well. Love this song. Hope you like it, too! :)

Charming Julia Nunes cover….

Her Notes: I literally have been doing nothing but watching ‘Dexter’ for the past 24 hours. its quite sad, but then again, if you’ve seen the show, you dont blame me.

This is one of my favorite Julia songs. I obvs dont own the rights to it, and I hope Julia doesnt hate it.
