Location: Phoenix AZ		This is why you start your kid playing the ukulele. He's 4 years old. Doesn't know the Jason Mraz lyrics, but check out the barre chords, inflections and percussives.

He plays a 4 finger (B shape) E chord better than I do.

Location: GA USA		HERE is why you don't give an adult a uke. (I hesitated to show you guys)

BTW, "I'm Yours" on uke was featured at SSSJ this year. Tanis did a fine job on the vocals. It is the most played, overplayed and hated song in uke circles, though everybody loves the video of this kid.

Location: Right now?		Cap'n, I had no idea you were so talented ... and you can SING, too! I love that song, and I don't care what anyone thinks. The robots are an extra treat.

Thank you for that!

;)
