A sweet guitar. Not seeing the cover though. The song is about a weeping guitar. It don't weep. 5.

He really captures the emotion of the original in a new way. Love it every time, Bill!

Ouch. To say this is to say that the Beatles sucked as songwriters (which I imagine you do NOT want to say). Part of the measure of a well-written song is that it can be performed by someone other than the songwriter. |

One of George's songs on ukelele is a wonderful and fitting tribute. George loved the ukelele (seriously)!
This guy is incredible, and yes, we do get to hear it a lot here. But then, if it wasn't for RP, I might never have heard it at all. I'll deal with the repetition.

Is this ukulele or guitar? I searched the web and found two names for the same song. Sounds like ukulele to me.
Hearing this song make me miss George Harrison that much more.
You are missed, George.

It seemed to be violently sobbing towards the end. Quite unbecoming.

I like this one until the 2nd half when it gets too jazzed up.

So Joe Cocker can't do With a Little Help From My Friends? Only Ringo? How about Richie Havens? He's doen a ton of Beatles songs.
Seems kind of unfair.
Not to mention the fact that The Beatles pretty much got started doing covers.
This is a great twist on a classic. |

I had to learn ukulele in grade 8 and have always thought it sucked as an instrument.
I'll have to revise my opinion now...
