Creep: Radiohead Ukulele Tutorial (Taught by a Music Teacher)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ย. 2024
- Welcome! Today we will learn how to play “Creep” by Radiohead. We will be playing the same chords as the original version, so you can play along with the original recording.
I'm going to be completely honest with you... this tutorial is challenging BUT if you have been avoiding barred chords, use this tutorial as your opportunity to get past that hurdle. Think about it this way: you could cross the barre chord milestone if you commit to this song and, most importantly, to your practice.
CHORDS USED
G, B, C and Cm
G C and Cm are easy. The most challenging part of this song is switching from G to B. My recommendation for getting past this challenge: practice switching without the strumming hand. Work on developing the muscle memory of your fretboard hand. You'll be amazed at what 2 minutes of practicing this will do.
STRUMMING PATTERNS USED
Easy: d d D d (accent the 3rd downstrum by making it louder)
Intermediate: D D D DU
Advanced: Soft D D D DU in intro and verses, change loudness levels throughout song to add expression. Add DU strums before choruses.
FINGERPICKING PATTERNS USED
4-3-2-1
4-3-21-3
All-3-2-1

10:36 Thanks to Enya for this beautiful ukulele
Let's rock those ukes! ;)
I am not bok in English. At All, which ukulele strings do I play?
This song always gives me chills, don’t know what it is about these chords but they never seem to resolve, just get sadder and sadder. But then you smile and everything is OK! What a rollercoaster!
YESSSSS!!! This song always gets me toooooo! I thought FOR SURE that I had made a tutorial for it and nope. It was nowhere to be found 😂 so here we are today
Bernadette Teaches Music I am glad I clicked, thank you!
Suggestion: Play G chord as follows: a) bar strings 1, 2 and 3 with the index b) string 2 on fret 3 with middle finger. This way the switch from G to B is much easier. 😀
That's genius!
Leire Jimenez 😀
This is one of my favorite songs to play!! Great tutorial B!!
I love hearing you play and sing this 💛
Happy World Ukulele Day! Thank you so much for these videos 💛 I'm practicing so much more since I discovered your channel. I had plateau-ed at the 4 chords and now I started playing songs with a whole range of chords.
Hi Christina!!! 👋🏼
I’m so so so happy to hear that the channel has helped you out of the plateau!
This tutorial will also be pushing you a bit, so I hope you like it!! 💛💛💛
Bernadette, I wanted to comment again to say your content is high quality. Your 30 day Ukulele Challenge document/download...is incredible. You can tell it was created by someone with expertise in those fields. It can stand on its own even without the excellent videos that go along with it. Your teaching style is great. It's to the point but it doesn't leave out the details or nuances that can make such a big difference. Great for beginners and more experienced players alike. You shouldn't hesitate to drop those credentials now and again to remind folks :)
Another awesome tutorial! "Be dramatic" gets me every time. Lol That has to be the cutest direction ever given in a tutorial, but at the same time it's a great reminder to use dynamics when we play and to actually try to perform. Love it!
😂😂😂 I’m glad that got you!
And YES! That’s exactly what I was going for. To play with expression and to make the music do something
This tutorial gave me a lot of ideas with what to do (how to play) the songs that I already know. Thank you for being such a great educator!
Simple but clear and elegant..♥️
This is my 8th day of having a ukulele and i've already can play and sing along. Thanks to you💖
Love from PHILIPPINES
Love the fret board and head of your Uke
Thank you so much. I’m really in love with it too. Each piece of abalone was individually placed. It’s amazing.
So tricky from G to B! Thanks for the lesson and all the tips!
Thanks Bernadette................A very good song to learn...............Thank you. Al Sautner
Very smart........no, brilliant lady! Great credentials, and super talented.
Hola Bernadette!! Wow, "I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight, I've never seen you shine so bright", you look absolutely radiant in this video.
Thank you for yet another awesome tutorial video, it is amazing what can be done with just four chords and different techniques. As a teacher you are "Simply the Best." 😊😊🎶🎶
Enjoy your show so much ! Thanks !
Thank you, Tony!! 💜💜💜 I really appreciate that :)
I played along! I could keep up all the way to the end ! Yay!! 🤩🤩🤩
Wow wow wow!!! This means you’re doing super well! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 keep going!!
Nice tutorial I love this song and you are looking very delightful👍💕
Loving the detail and design on the fingerboard! Still making my way through the 30 day Uke challenge! ❤️🌺 can’t wait to get to tutorials
Hi Alyce! 👋🏼
I’m so happy you’re keeping at it with the 30 Day Uke Challenge. You’ll be ready for tutorials in no time! I recommend going to the LOVE Song tutorials after the 30 Day Uke Challenge. It’s a big jump up, but you’ll definitely be able to do it 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
@@BernadetteTeachesMusic Thank you so much for being such an awesome teacher!
I love how you give credit to Cynthia Lin for alternative strumming. The Ukulele community is so kind and I love learning different things from each of you.
We have to give credit where credit is due 💜
I’m doing just the fingering of G-B-C and it does help. 👍🏾
Also... this is by far one of my fave songs of all time! Thank you for teaching it!! ❤
You’re my favorite teacher ❤🌺🙌❤️🔥
Thank you Bernadette!!! I love this song. I am excited to give it a go!
Hi Jim!! 👋🏼
I love this song too ☺️ I thought I had made this tutorial already. I’m happy everyone seems to be liking it
that was such a cool video, keep smiling my friend.
Seriously! The best ukulele teacher on TH-cam! Period! You inspire to create my own ukulele TH-cam Channel! It’s coming very soon! Thank you for your kindness!
Thank you! Happy I found a tutorial with finger picking because I'm looking for something more advanced. I get really bored when I can't play my guitar so I resort to the uke.
Like these alot more than some others I've seen easier to change between them, thank you!
Hi Bernadette, I trust you are splendid today. I mentioned your web site to a very prominent Ukulele chap in the UK and this was his reply earlier....."Yes, I know someone who has just come back from the NAMM show who described her as their highlight - rather than the fancy ukes on display!" How cool is that....
Oh my goodness!! 😭😭😭 that is such a wonderful compliment. I wish I knew who you were talking about so that I could send them a thank you message. ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much, Andy!
@@BernadetteTeachesMusic I am afraid I do not know the friend of my friend, but he clearly has great taste. You have such an easy way about you with a caring and nurturing style. I have about 100 videos on You Tube, but they are for my own amusement and I rarely practice any of them beforehand. Mostly I play them through once and then just commit them to video, warts and all. Whatever I play is what you see, first time though with no 2nd takes. But I have a forthright almost aggressive style in my approach. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts? Kind regards, Andy
A heartfelt thank you for all you do. You are a goddess of music education for all of us!!!! My skills have upgraded so much since finding your videos Bernadette! Namaste
If you were my teacher I'd never learn anything because I'd be distracted on your gorgeous smile and eyes just everything. ❤️😎
waiting for that pink Enya to come to USA for sale. Its an awesome sound. Great tutorial as always!!
Great tutorial Bernadette!!
Robin, thank you so much 😊
Glad you liked it!
Love that top Bernadette.
Thank you so much, Cindy! 💜💜💜
I picked it up at a recycle store for $3.
Isn’t that crazy?
OH MY DAYS I HAVE GOOSEBUMPS !!!!!! i love this song can't wait to try this thank you x
Just wanted to say I’m using your videos to learn scales and you map things out very well where it’s easy to learn and follow along
Hi Jessica! 👋🏼
Thank you so much for taking the time to write a sweet comment. It’s comments like this that keep me encouraged to keep going and making videos ❤️❤️❤️
So great Bernadette! This is such a very cool song, I‘m in love with this one since many years 💕 Thank u so much for the Tutorial 🙏🏻
Another great tutorial! I can only join in with the praise of the other comments! I love your videos and teaching style! Thank you!
Luv you so much !!!!! Thank you for this great video! I love to practice these cool fingerpicking styles!!!!!!!🌻🦋💝🌹⚘🌷🦄
Latonyaaaaa!!! How’ve you been?! 🌸🌸🌸
@@BernadetteTeachesMusic really good!! I hope you are doing well too!!!!!💝🥰🎀🦄
This is a great finger picking tutorial!!👌👌💯❤️
i love your teaching style.
When will this ukulele be on the market!!! It’s so beautiful❤️
Hah! I was just searching last night to see if you had a Creep tutorial...and you didn't! But now you do! Awesome! 👍
Wow!!! 😳 the telepathy!!! I was editing this video last night! How awesome is that?
Hope you like the tutorial 💛💛💛
I love this song. Thanks Bee
I'm soooo excited!
I have my Enya Nova U arriving tomorrow, I'm an absolute beginner and I can't wait to start learning and take this journey with my ukulele.
Watching all your videos is going to be a real pleasure as they are so easy to watch and learn from.
Thank you so much!!
Keep going with the amazing work you are doing 👏🙌🙇🏻♂️
Can you do this video for baritone ukulele? Please😁
Thank you ☺️
That’ silent practice is what I do everyday when I’m in front of the tv. So my chord changes get better. That’s what’s most challenging for me
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Kim, that is such good practice! Your chord switches will get so good if you continue with this 💛
To be honest, I always skip this song whenever I go through The Perfect Set you've previously created for us. I guess there's no running away from it now! Thank you Bernadette for always pushing us and never giving up on us! You always see the potential and the best of all us, your students! ❤❤❤
Thank you.I am still struggling with B chords whatever shape I try with my fingers. Had my Ukes over 2 years now. If I do a full barr I can't seem to get the second string down and using your prefered method I get a pain right in the middle of my wrist which is not good. However I have found that B7 can be used instead of B and that is easier for me. Just too add it does depend on which of my Ukes or Banjolele's I play. My Kala Concert seems to suit me best. I like trying to sing this song.
Being new to the Family (just subscribed) that Song feels like a warm welcome ^^
Picked up the Ukulele a few weeks ago and your Videos do help me quiet a lot in motivating and improving my play.
Glad I found you ;-)
Welcome to our little community, Denton!
I’m so happy you’re here ❤️
Keep me updated on your progress through these comments!
@@BernadetteTeachesMusic Hey thanks a lot for the reply, since you asked the song is almost sounding as intended.
Strumming works smoothly,
the only trouble I have is the shift between g and b I decided to go full barre, because I have relatively big hands and my index finger felt pretty uncomfortable on just two strings.
Got to pratice that a little longer to get a clean sound ^^
Ps.: I saw your 10 reasons why people quit ukulele video.
I just want you to know that I really appreciate your effort and you should never feel like you don't deserve the success of the channel, because you do!
Looking forward to your content 😉
Another great tutorial! Thank you!❤️
O genial! Hasta solo español te entendí a la perfección.
Just found you and already loving soooooo much! Helping me soooooooooo much! Thank you!! Xo from Brasil!
Raquel!!! Hi and welcome to our community ☺️ I am so happy you’re here! Sending you hugs and kisses from USA!
Great tutorial!!! I will work on it! ❤️️
Dramatically beautiful!❤️
LOVE it. Thank you so much!!!
Me (after watching this tutorial):
“Who needs to worry about all that transitioning when you can do nice smooth movements playing all barre chords?”
Me (after playing volleyball, then just finishing the most recent daily practice video and then watching this tutorial) *loving the sound of this chord progression and can’t wait to try it:
“Barre chords, WHAT?!!”
Thank you, for reminding me that you are the one who has the appropriate training to create a lesson in succession with all of your videos!
Aimee! (Love this spelling, by the way)
I hadn’t tackled this song and I was reflecting on where this channel’s audience was a year ago. There’s NO WAY I would have ever added a tutorial with two barred chords for such a popular song that so many people would want to do.
Now there are so many video resources on this channel to help people through achieving barre chords
Bernadette Teaches Music So true! If it weren’t for hanging out on your channel for a while, I would never have been able to watch this tutorial and immediately recognize that playing all 4 chords barred would make for easier transitions. Noticing this is one thing, though; playing it was another. I’m so grateful for the knowledge that I’m taking from you and even more happy with your expertise to know that 2 barred chords is a challenge in itself, and that’s an improvement from just six months ago.
Yes the same for me, I play it with barred chords. Very easy. But I love to look the video because of the teacher!
This is a great addition to the daily practice video. I practiced so much now my thumb hurts because of those half barred chords. I guess that is a good sign. also sign for a coffee break. 😬
Thank you so much 😊
Yes, I agree! This is a great video to complement the daily practice :)
You can try and running your hands under warm water to warm up the hands
Just loved this tutorial, things are slowly improving for me ,Best ukulele teacher ever💜, thank you ☺️ and Enya ukulele,s are fantastic💜
Wow, what a great video, im really starting to pick things up fast since i started watching your video's, really like the way you teach, just can't thank you enough, ukulele is my new found passion👍.
Wow thank you so much, Scott!
I am so happy to hear that you’re getting better through these lessons 💜💜💜
Keep strumming :) and keep updating me
I like the way you teach ❤
This is really great, thank you so much. This was exactly what I was looking for!
This is such a cool song. I love the music video too.
Great tutorial.
And your dress looks great 😻😻
Loved this! For transition from G-B-C-Cm what do you think of these fingerings? I found them to make a very easy transition (though they might not be formally "correct")?
For the G barre CEA strings with index finger, 3rd fret E with middle finger. To transition to B keep the partial barre in place with index finger and make the chord with the middle and ring fingers. Make the C with middle finger, and the Cm then with the middle finger barring CEA strings. Makes it easy to then barre the 2nd fret "behind" the middle finger with the index finger in preparation for the next G chord.
Your lessons are so good - you surprise me with your song choices for Ukulele sometimes!
Yes Anthony! I approve of these fingerings and some of these are the fingerings I do when I’m not teaching. I wanted to do more comfortable/easier fingerings for this tutorials.
Ahhh that uke is beautifuuuuul 🥰🥰🥰🥰 good job Miss B 💗
Thank you so much, Flora!! And yes, I’m in love with this uku 🌸
great tutorial!
Omg quiero ese ukelele ESTA HERMOSOOOOOO 🥰
Look at you pretty lady .. all sparkly :) Considering that I am old fart and like old songs .. I actually do love this song! I know this song is old but I like, old, old! Haha! I struggle with B chords more than I do any other chord but I will give it a try. It's not so much making the chord shape, it is transitioning to it I have a problem with. I was actually just following an old tutorial you did for Love Me Tender, we actually sounded great playing together and then I spotted this new upload. Looking forward to giving this a go! Thank you Ms B! By the way, have you seen Maria Calfa-DePaul's version of this song on Ukulele? You need to!
Hi Wendy!!! 👋🏼
I like old old songs too! I am an only child, so I grew up listening to whatever my parents, uncles, and grandparents chose to listen to.
But people ask for more “modern” songs like this one.
Glad you enjoyed the Love Me Tender tutorial and that we sounded good together! Maybe one day we will play together in person 😊
Love it! Fun patterns. (Leah)
Thank you, Leah!! This song has some profanities in it, so I decided not to add the lyrics on the screen because I know teachers like you use them 😬
Love your videos ❤️❤️
Thank you for the tutorial. I try to play this one only with barre chords to toughen up my fingers.
That’s a great technique to try!!! Switching from barre G to barre B is a good exercise!
❤️
So Beautiful Ms. Bernadette ❤️❤️❤️
Another great tutorial Bernadette. Funny story: I had slowed this down to 75% and I forgot, you sounded drunk and I was like, "what is she doing drinking and doing tutorials?" LOL
Great lesson!!
Hi Nieves!!! 👋🏼
Thank you so much 😊
Hope you and your little animals are doing well :)
Bernadette Teaches Music ha thanks. Yes they are well. I hope your cats are doing well also!
There's only one complaint about this tutorial that I have .. you didn't sing for us! :( I have just gotten round to watching this all the way through and I kept thinking, "OK now she's going to play and sing for us all the way through" What happened Ms B? Hahahaha! I have been blessed to be able to purchase a Cocobolo Ukulele through their lottery system of being able to buy a Cocobolo Ukulele. Interesting, that playing B chords is much, much easier for me to play on the Cocobolo.
Beautiful, beautiful instrument, though slightly distracting for tutorial use, as it's the fret positions are obscured by the flowers.
Thank you for letting me know, Audrey! I’m currently traveling and I only have this one but when I get back home I’ll use a different uku if I need to show fret positions 💛💛💛
I agree!
wow
0:56 strumming
Hi Miss B. I have been following the 30 day challenge, anyway to have “one voice” song by wailin Jenny’s, been looking for it but no tutorial :/ would be so nice to play this one 🎼
Oh woow beautiful ukulele! Where do you get it from ?
How dare you judge us, Plazi! Haha
Omg! I love your top!! Where did you get that from??
Great lesson as always. And I like your top which continues to worry me😄. Did you see the Dean Martin link I sent you. Also just saw your Kanile'a Oha video from a while back. Nice Uke. 🤗
I lost that link! Where do I find it?
This is a dress I picked up at a flea market for $3!!!
That's £2.31, I must try and get same ! 😄😄. th-cam.com/video/AuEv942wOZs/w-d-xo.html
All those instruments!! Where are you at a music school? Your dress looks very nice to, I saw your post on how you got it. Not often you find nice clothes inexpensively. Cheers!!
Hi Kevin! 👋🏼
I was filming at my friend’s house. He is a mariachi music instructor and is also learning how to repair instruments.
Oh yes I remember I really liked the lessons you did with him. Its cool to branch out and learn other styles of music.
I like you so much
So what key would you say this is in? G major with a borrowed Cm from the parallel minor mode?
❤️❤️❤️👍
Rheba!!! Hi!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bernadette u look so pretty!
Love this but I am struggling with my up strum catching my nail on the bottom string. I’m not strumming over the hole. Any suggestions?
Love this but need you to slow it waaaaay down please. I'm a beginner and it's hard to find a good learning video.
Hola me encanta tú VOZ Saludos allá bendiciones temazo guapísima genial amiga temazo genial me encanta ukulele yo te gon un ukulele amiga

How can I concentrate, I'm so hot for teacher. : ) but seriously awesome instruction; thanks.
How come I can purchase or find any uma ukulele? I live here in america.
Man she's cute best teacher ever
I guess as a novice I can't just jump into this one since you don't tell us what fingers go on which strings! 😩
"switch to B" - me: plink plunk plink plink :(
when will that pink enya uke come out ? also how much would it cost 😅
Hi!! 👋🏼
I’m not sure when but you can check the description box for any info :)
I can't get the b chord 🙄
