For my birthday my youngest son sent me a music book. "The Ultimate Ukulele Fake Book". Over 600 songs ranging from old children's songs to Thriller and Uncle John's Band. A yellow submarine full of Beatles songs among them. I'm going to be busy for a while. Any requests? lol

Nice, maybe, but people hate what I request. I have more for you to learn. Ukulele punk songs. Sounds cool. It does take the edgy sound away a bit, bet it would sound cool in ska versions though. Still pretty neat.

Oh, Ska and Reggae are great fun on the Uke. I usually play the "chunk" parts. Kind of boring on guitar, but a lot of fun on Uke. I'll check out your video.

@ParaTed2k Ukulele is fun,hard to make sad songs on that instrument. Why I like it so much I suppose.

With only four strings compare to six or eight in a guitar, I am tempted to learn playing the Ukulele. I love and enjoy Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwo'ole performance of "Somewhere over the rainbow".

in case you're interested, I teach over Skype... and yes, IZ is amazing. It's a simple song to play, but he does it so well!

@ParaTed2k _Thanks, but two of my grandchildren are members of their school band and one also plays the Ukulele.

Love playing ukelele too. That's the stringed instrument which my late brought home. I destroyed with learning nothing until I saw my first cousin strumming it. Then I got interested. The song I sang while playing the uke is "Wooden Heart" by Elvis Presley.

@ParaTed2k Yeah! I also love to play "Diana" popularized by Paul Anka, and "Pearly Shell" popularized by our local female singer, Nora Aunor.
