After the wearing a hula girl costume in a Hawaiian restaurant for my last ukulele video, I figured I should perform something a little more serious. But what? I always seem to enjoy performing songs when others pick them for me, so I put out a status update on MySpace this morning with the following question:
I got some great responses, and I thank everyone who offered a suggestion. I was tempted to try my hand at the 1812 Overture, but I had no idea where I’d find cannon on a limited budget.
For not the first time, a thought came to me as I was putting this together. Are my music videos just elaborate excuses to play “dress up” by myself?
That said, I’m really happy with the final product here. I’m pretty sure you’ll like it. Can you believe this song is almost THIRTY YEARS OLD now? For that reason, I decided to bust out a gray wig I got at the thrift store recently.
What song would you least expect to see done as a ukulele cover tune?
