  • Before you do anything else, download a songsheet from the excellent Uke Hunt website here and tell Woodshed I sent you! ukulelehunt.com/2008/01/29/mam...
    Here's a cover of "Dream A Little Dream Of Me", a beautiful jazz song that's been covered by stars as diverse as Robbie Williams, Mama Cass, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and - my personal favourite - The Beautiful South.

    This was the first tutorial I learned when I got my first uke. I still play it mostly the way he does it although I add the intro chords: C, Cdim, Dm7, G7 x 2 before the song starts. It's a really good tutorial! Thanks, UT!!

    Jaya Robinson, if you're reading this, I have done Sweater Weather! Here's the link: czcams.com/video/WuGknnWlKDk/video.html I've tried replying to your comments, messaging your inbox and commenting on your channel - but it's all locked down - think you need to update some settings or something! Anyway, enjoy 😃👍

    Stars shining bright above you
    Night breezes seem to whisper "I love you"
    Birds singing in the sycamore tree
    Dream a little dream of me
    Say "Night-ie night" and kiss me
    Just hold me tight and tell me you'll miss me
    While I'm alone and blue as can be
    Dream a little dream of me
    Stars fading but I linger on, dear
    Still craving your kiss
    I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
    Just saying this
    Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
    Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
    But in your dreams whatever they be
    Dream a little dream of me
    Stars fading but I linger on, dear
    Still craving your kiss
    I'm longing to linger till dawn, dear
    Just saying this
    Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
    Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
    But in your dreams whatever they be
    Dream a little dream of me

    @christylarsen569 Před 7 lety +1

    This is great! I am a beginner and have been struggling with this song. Lots of fairly easy chords to learn but I really appreciate the way you broke the song down with the chords and strumming. Just what I was looking for! Thanks.

  • @kellehz
    @kellehz Před 8 lety +4

    I've recently picked up ukelele again after 4 years of owning one and never touching it, I have been learning for two weeks now! Your videos have helped me so much but this one just blew my mind and I think I need a bunch of redbull and constant practice for about a month to get this one right hahahaha

  • @SusanALennon
    @SusanALennon Před 7 lety

    This is a great tutorial. I really like the way you have broken down where the chord changes happen in the strumming. I'm a rank beginner. But having songs I enjoy motivate me to learn new chords. I'm excited and will be making this my weekend project. Incidentally, I'd also really like any Social Distortion, Mike Ness, and The Ramones. But, honestly, I'm tickled with everything you have given us!

  • @nynous
    @nynous Před 3 lety

    Wow, great tutorial! I tried to play ukulele after several years, not remembering any chords. When I first saw all the chords for this song I though I would never learn it. But eventually it was not too difficult with this video! I still need a lot of practicing, but at least I got all the chords and I more or less remember how they go.. Thank you!!

    Damn! Never thought I'd be playing jazz on my uke😜❗️ Ukulele Teacher's a god & his free content gets impoverished bums like me playing good tunes in no time. Once you've nailed a handful of chords, this is an easy, well known tune for folks of all ages. I play it with a slower shuffle tempo. Great content, professional tuition for all ages. 👍👏👏👏❗️
