Hi, what type of uke are you playing?
Thank you from Sun City Az
Been on the fence about buying a uke and discovering your channel has pushed me into deciding to get one this weekend. It's crucial to have resources for learning you actually like and I like your vibe and lessons. Keep up the good work.
Im too pissed, I learned it all but I cannot explain if somebody asks You are the best and weirdest tutor ever
Tapping foot all the way through. A big thank you, Stu.
Good fun to play and sing. Lyrics made me smile. Thanks, Stu.
brilliant thank you
Fun to play and sing. A big thank you, Stu.
❤
I like how people use different chords for the same sound, i like to look around for one that sounds most like what i hear in my head i think i like this version better thank you
Gracias maestro le zen.... hechando la casa por la ventana🎉❤
Great that you explain the lick and I can play it with you, reading the music is on thing but seeing you play it is so good. Cheers Mike 🍷🍷👍👍
I love this! Thank you for sharing ☮
Hey Stu, I only received your book last week, fantastic, especially the boogie. Cheers Mike 🍷🍷👍👍
Good exercise to learn finger picking - thanks Stu
4:19 Here you said „foot *still* tapping on beat 2 and 4“ but it was 1 and 3 at the start… you mean still tapping 1 and 3, dont you? This kinda confused me..
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the finest UKU player you can ever get Love you sir Love from INDIA
Thank you for this tutorial ❤
I love the way you teach!
Stu, thank you so much for sharing this with the Twin City Oaks group. I’ve been following you for a while and I love your lessons.
Great tutorial ,luv the song
Decided to learn the Ukulele about three weeks ago and am determined to make this the song I serenade my wife with. I've learned so much, despite my fingers wanting to reject the training I've been putting them through. Thank you for this lesson. And thank you for the Zen approach to playing!
a perfect performance, thank you zen
High Stew from the land down under Keith love this😊
Thanks for this tutorial. Quick question though - at 2:52 and 7:14 the fingering in the diagram and your fingering on the uke are not the same. The diagram shows a B7 but I'm not sure which chord you're playing...a Bmaj with the 1st string open?
Check out Ry Cooder’s version.
Great lesson as always. How about You've Got to Hide Your Love Away? SoAZ, Ohana
Love It….BEAUTIFUL Stu, Thank You So Much, My Awesome Teacher 👍❤️👍

Thank you 🙏 Australia 🇦🇺

Thank you, Stu. The outdoor sound may appeal to many. However, I have hearing issues and it makes hearing you clearly challenging for me. Thanks for all you do!
Yes, I understand… I film this with a different camera, and there was no windscreen which lead to some audio drops! Stay tuned for more 😊
