    Aldrine–this is awesome. Thank you so much for all you do on this site. It really has helped me step up my game and be a better uke player. Your visual fret board is terrific too.

    Aldrine, you never cease to amaze me. You are the rare person who not only plays wonderfully but can teach. Thank you sooooo much. I may actually be able to play this song now.

    Awesome- the spooky thing is I’d been working on this myself since just before Christmas and it was vaguely reassuring to see this version turn up on Underground Uke:)

    This is so awesome, you make these tutorials seem easier than anyone else i’ve seen and your kind enough to do so. Even i can play this now and i have only been learning to play the ukulele for 2 months, all because of this tutorial

    the chord progression for the finger picking is [A, E, D, Bm7, E7, C#7, Em, F#, C, G, Am] ?
