    I first heard this beautiful song at a classmate's (Farrington) memorial service. It was sung by an angelic Samoan choir. The piety and melody always brings heartfelt tears welling in my eyes. Mahalo for the tutorial, NOW I can play it to my heart's desire. Pass da kine Kleenex, you real shaka brah. Fondest Aloha.

    I am in Hawaii for a little while, and I’ve never played a song on a uke. Your videos are so approachable and songs beautiful. This makes me want to start. Now if I could figure out the English translation so I know what I am saying. Lol. Really, tho, very good video. You have a gift.

    • @StevenEspaniola
      @StevenEspaniola  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You actually don’t need to hit that last note on the A string. If you look closely, I’m not using my pinky for the F7 ;)

    • @jenrusso4699
      @jenrusso4699 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I use my ring finger on that third fret to make the F7 - it’s easier then to switch to the Bb
