    Thank you so much! I only got my ukulele at Christmas but it's my sister's birthday today and I thought that I'd learn this as my first ever song! She lives in Spain so hopefully when she wakes up in the morning, she'll be able to see me playing/singing to her from England! If it weren't for you posting this, I wouldn't have been able to do it!

    hey I have a tip
    If you can't switch to g7 fast enough in the first part, put your middle and first fingers in place for g7 so they're ready and all you have to do is move your ring finger :P

    I just got a ukulele from school today and I was so excited so I decided to watch a video on how to play it. I'm so happy you have taught me this so fast and easy and I'm excited to play it for my friends/families birthday. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

    Yes the intro is very long but I just broke it down and picked up this song like nothing. I played it over the summer and haven’t touched it since. Today I decided to pick it up again. It’s a really easy concept. He does a great job explaining everything. I broke the song into three parts and wouldn’t move on until I had the first part solid. It’s a great song and who wouldn’t love someone singing and playing the uku for their birthday. Thank you

    This is my favorite tutorial I've seen so far. I'm not sure why people are complaining. I just wrote the notes down so I could practice more. Super helpful and it sounds great. Thank you very much! I hope I'll be able to play it for my sister-in-law's birthday tomorrow. :)

    • @SuperUkulele
      @SuperUkulele  Před 7 lety +1

    @kristenm9289 Před 4 lety

    Thank you for this! Was looking for a slightly more than basic finger picking or chord “Happy Birthday” tutorial. Your combining of the finger picking and arpeggio / chord is perfect. Still easy but a little more complex than most of the HB tutorials on CZcams.

  • @pree_ameen
    @pree_ameen Před 4 lety

    Hey Aaron!! Your tutorial is MAD HELPFUL!! I cant wait to learn more from you. I didnt even know how to play a single string and with your tutorial I started to play the full happy birthday song on ukulele. I am so excited. THANK YOU!

  • @Grace9511
    @Grace9511 Před 8 lety

    Wow all those other CZcams videos about how to play ukulele say it's so easy, but then when I watch them it's so confusing....thanks for making this easy and actually making this for beginners because other people act like everyone knows which string is which..this is the only video I actually can understand thankyou

  • @pollitadroid01
    @pollitadroid01 Před 7 lety

    So the entry to the video has a slow start but I learned this song in one day. He did a fantastic job at explaining everything step of the way and the pace was slow but I still had to pause it and break it down. Great video, thank you

    @lorisiccia5914 Před 5 lety

    Thank you for teaching me my first song! I still have troubles with transitioning into g7 and some times f, but his is the first song I've learned to play fully...and the end bit was the best part (first part that clicked, then was excited to get the rest right too) I may have replayed that last half 10 or more times, but thank you for the lesson.Now I can play it for my friends birthday in a few days, hopefully smoother by then, but super excited to have finally learned a song!..play end bit here :)

    Thanks a lot for your video, it's so easy and sounds just great.
    However it would help me personally a lot if you would make an overview with what you have to do when in the comments so that you don't have to watch the whole video again if you forgot a part.
    Anyway thank you so much, since some of my friends live far away it's a nice thing to do if you can't be there.
