Your uke and your voice are a perfect match for that classic song. I should think just about everybody would sing along to that it's just timeless. Cheers from the old county Stu.
ive been trying to sing play and sing along with this song for a month. It really feels impossible. I can play it effordlessly on the uku but when i start singing the struming goes all over the play. Its feels extremely hard since the voice doesnt sync with the tempo and my hand tries to strum in the tempo i sing. I am gonna smash my uku to my head that might fix the problem.
It is a very syncopated melody. The first note comes in on the two beat. Try tapping your hand or foot, slow it right down and just sing one line at a time. I have to do this for songs still.
@@ukemullum So its not only on my impression that it is hard right? Would you consider it to be an advanced piece of music to play? Since i am still a begginer, couldf you please explain what you mean by 'the first note comes in on the two beat?' Thanks mullum!
@@skrap5008 I would say, in this song, the melody's timing or phrasing is advanced for sure. So if you count the beats to a song in 4/4 time. 1, 2 , 3 ,4 over and over which is the majority of the music we hear... in this song the first word 'Trailer' is on beat 2.
@@ukemullum Thanks for beign responsive! I think that helped me alot to understand it better! So, the first word, 'Trailers..' , comes around the second down strum motion right? Seems to be that this goes for the full song. 'No phone' also comes on the 2 right?
@@skrap5008 yesss!!! You're working it out. Count 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & and work out which beat the melody or lyric falls on. you will learn about note value (how long the notes last for) sometimes they last for a beat and a half. (like the word sale and rent)... They appear as tied notes here: dokumen.tips/documents/king-of-the-road-roger-miller-piano-sheet-music.html?page=1

😀
This shirt is number 1
Terrific
Awesome! Thank you
Very nice!
Baritone version, low G.... next step is a high G Version ? 😀

This video will work nicely for High G as well Andre
The G string resonates better with Epsom salts. 😉
