Take On Me (Shiny & the Spoon version) - Lyrics & easy chords for download included!

Hey guys,

I haven't recorded a vid in ages! So here is a cover of one of my most favorite uke covers on YouTube eva - recorded by Shiny & the Spoon in 2008. It was originally issued by them as an entry to the "UU All Things Reggae Contest" in that year.

You may also find a PDF file for download with the lyrics & chords of their version. It's very suitable for beginners, too, I'd say.

So here's my vid:

Nice cover! I haven't played that song in a long time but I've pulled it back out now because I like your version. Love the chorus that way.
