Hey guys,
I don't know how many of you visit UU member Woodshed's Uke Hunt site, but he's just posted a call out for definitive ukulele songs. I've reposted his post below, with the call-out in bold. The only one I know of is "While My Guitar Gently Weeps." I thought the large number of Hawaiians on this site would know a lot more than I, so I thought I'd let you guys know about it.

I’ve written up a page about Ukulele Songs: songs that are heavily associated with the ukulele. They’re the ones that people who know nothing about the ukulele will ask you to play, the ones you’ll see hundreds of ukulele versions of on YouTube.
It’s quite interesting to note that most of the songs are from the ukulele heyday of the mid-20s but weren’t primarily associated with the uke until picked up decades later.
As well as including the definitive versions of those songs, there are links to less well known but equally good (and often better) than the better known songs and also links to tab, chords and instructional videos.
Before any Jake fans get up in arms, this page is just for songs. I’ll be doing a ‘Ukulele Music’ page at some point.
If you think I’ve missed anything or you’ve got any suggestions for ukulele music page (and I need help on that one - I’ve only got three so far) leave a comment and let me, and everyone else, know.
