| TerryS (Another SW) | Posted: Jun 07, 2013 - 19:49 Once the swing/jazz section starts, it all makes sense, even the ukulele virtuoso label. |
| poetista | Posted: May 31, 2013 - 12:13 Not regarding this particular version in particular, but -- in general -- just how many version of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" does the world need? Lovely song. I am fond of it. Kind of like I adore Cohen's "Hallelujah." But, you know, how many...oh, well. Can't stop the tide, I guess. |

Had to come back while Van Morrison was playing to give it the richly deserved 1! How can you rate it if you haven't heard it? Should I judge you without meeting you? |
| Greendragon00 | Posted: May 31, 2013 - 12:11 No...just no. |
| unclehud (now 50 feet above the planet in Boston) | Posted: May 31, 2013 - 12:11 Well, I duuno. I like covers, but ... wait a minute, it picks up here ... maybe this will turn out OK. |
| mrwais | Posted: May 20, 2013 - 10:25 it sucks! just decent in the first minute |

Now that's just plain unmutual. Whose side are you on? No matter--No. 2 wishes to see you post haste. The green dome. |

| whomhow (changeable) | Posted: Apr 19, 2013 - 02:24 I dig this version more and more, it grows from 4 to 6 and that's not the finish. |
| justin4kick (The Netherlands) | Posted: Apr 17, 2013 - 14:00 His guitar doesn't weep at all. George Harrisson would if he heard what has become of his song. |
| mostling | Posted: Apr 17, 2013 - 13:57 that sure is a weeping guitar |
| jkhandy | Posted: Apr 05, 2013 - 20:31 Extraordinarily nice! |
| turks13 | Posted: Mar 29, 2013 - 14:43 extraordinarily ordinary! |

| pcicatar (Portland, OR) | Posted: Mar 05, 2013 - 08:51 I appreciate the cover, but I don't know of a song that really, really needs a sweet breakdown in the middle of it.  7 —> 5 |
| q4Fry (Currently stateside) | Posted: Feb 26, 2013 - 03:57 It was going to be a 6, then a 7, settling at 8. One of my few. |
| Disti | Posted: Feb 02, 2013 - 01:02 what´s this supposed to be? Very painful........... |

Ninty (90!!!!!) 10-votes for this "crime-of-a-song" confirm that RP-music is made for the wrong crowd! No wonder that Floyd, Queen and other retirement-boppers are so popular here. Let me see if I got this right-you spend time listening to a radio station you admittedly don't like, and you take time to write criticisms. Sounds like a fun way to spend the day.  |
| cShaggy (..inna state of being..) | Posted: Dec 13, 2012 - 01:20 ..with the ranging detours, one wonders why he even needed to cover anything..good playin, but just sayin'.. |
| orquidea (BaquerÃa) | Posted: Dec 13, 2012 - 01:17 It´s just like listening this song played in "Cuatro" one of the three national instruments from Venezuela, my contry. the others are maraca and arp "Arpa, cuatro y maracas".... |
| xenarocks (Tempe, Arizona) | Posted: Nov 16, 2012 - 09:49 Just saw Jake Shimabukuro at the Music Instrument Museum last night 11/15/2012. If you EVER have an opportunity to see him THEN DO IT!!! It was a breathtaking performance. He is an absolute Master on the instrument. |

| TJS (Bradley, Il) | Posted: Oct 11, 2012 - 07:41 I like it. |
| BalesBub (Boston) | Posted: Oct 11, 2012 - 07:41 Painfully irritating. |
| bachbeet | Posted: Sep 12, 2012 - 23:38 Pales in comparison to the original. |
| Sloggydog (UK) | Posted: Sep 12, 2012 - 23:37 Would rather hear the original but still a cool treatment of a classic |

| midigitguy (Massachusetts) | Posted: Aug 21, 2012 - 19:29 JUst because you can doesn't mean it is a good idea,, uughh. Yeah the guitar weeps to hear this covered on a uke. Sucks... |
| Fredrikson (Stockholm) | Posted: Aug 17, 2012 - 04:52 After the ten thousandth time hearing this, I feel the urge to change my 7 to a 4. |
| jbunniii (San Jose, CA) | Posted: Aug 12, 2012 - 12:22 Better than it could have been, but I still don't endorse it. Minus a point for the gratuitous handclapping midway through. |

See if this works… Rodrigo Y Gabriela; it's one of my favs. (Watch to at least the middle, if you think it's tedious at first; also, this isn't the best video of them doing this, but it's the best I could find amidst all the wannabees that dilute YouTube content now.) |
| Catecaneverall (Germany, Leipzig) | Posted: Jul 12, 2012 - 01:52 heartbreakingly beautiful! |
| midreaming | Posted: Jul 10, 2012 - 08:28 Ooooo… nneat!! ‘got any bedroom recordings of stairway to heaven or freebird laying around? My total favorites are covers of Barry Manilow’s Copa Cobana. MMmmyea.. B.M is a dreamboat … I guess Robert Plant kinda gets my panties in a bunch too |
| leonswiatek (The Greater Northeast) | Posted: Jul 10, 2012 - 08:23 needs to be 4 mins. shorter |
| kingart (Brooklyn NY) | Posted: Jul 10, 2012 - 08:22 You might not like this cover version — but Harrison probably would. He loved the ukelele. The Concert for George Clapton cover is good too. |
| jen3005545 (Fort Worth, TX) | Posted: Jul 10, 2012 - 08:21 Very nice.  |
| ScottFromWyoming (Powell) | Posted: Jul 10, 2012 - 08:20 I do believe I heard this 2 days ago. It's nice; would be nicer if it dropped to once a month. |
