Not unless you want a 1 minute song/tune dragged out slowly to about 3 minutes! :rofl:
I'm new to the uke, my finger tips haven't hardened up yet, & I'm still having to look for the right frets, etc, etc.

I just saw this now ... and ... what everyone else said ... and ...
That's
exactly what we want! We want you, on video, exactly as you are right now.
Many of us started here in our very early uking days, and we brought very beginner-ish-sounding things. And we kept making videos and entering Seasons. And lo and behold, over time we got better. And better. And better. And the same will happen for you. We are the most supportive encouraging lot you'll ever encounter. We know what it's like to be where you're at, and we will applaud your first video (and your subsequent ones) like it's one of the most amazing things you've ever done. Because it will be ... just because you overcame your self-judgment enough to do it.
The Seasons of the Ukulele is one of the single biggest reasons why I am at whatever level I'm at today, and one of the most fun things I've ever done.
So yeah, come make video with us, my friend. I'm pretty sure you'll be as happy to have done it as we all were when we made our first ones. If you need help getting started, just ask. Because, yes, we really do want your one-minute song stretched out to three minutes while you are finding the chords. And then maybe in your next one you might get it done in 2 and a half minutes. And in a month or two, you'll be having so much fun you'll be wondering why you ever worried about doing it.
[PS, I believe that 90% of beginners' challenges with making chord changes is that the ukulele is a slippery thing that is challenging to hold. For me, and many others I've helped, getting a strap onto your uke that holds it for you in a comfortable stable position will fix a great deal of it.
I made a video about my own solution to that particular challenge. The
original version of it is my most-watched-ever video, so it seems to be helping other people as well as me.]
