Whether you call them "Go-To" or "Warm-Up" or "Old Standby" tunes, many folk tend to play certain songs all the time. It can be as the first ones once the instrument is tuned or what just seems to happen after a while. We all have our favorite genre(s) and the "Go-To" tunes usually reflect what floats our respective boats.
As UU shows, the musical tastes and the uses of ukuleles among the members are quite broad. Our common appreciation of this versatile instrument is truly magnified by the different sounds we get from it. So, when you open up the case/bag and retrieve the ukulele du jour, what are the ten tunes you play the most often? For me, its:
1. Hotel California
2. Heartache Tonight
3. Tequila Sunrise
4. Heart of the Matter
5. Hallelujia
6. Sultans of Swing
7. Wonderful World, Beautiful People
8. Somewhere Over the Rainbow
9. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down
10. Toes
Yeah, I'm an Eagles/Henley fan who's mainly into Southern Rock, Reggae and some special stuff. I play the ukulele like I do my other stringed instruments - it's got to rock or it's traded. I prefer to flatpick rather than finger-strum.
Again, we're all different. There is no such thing as "the" way to play. If there was, it would be a boring world.
