That was great - I don't think I've ever heard the original, and I don't speak German, (one semester in high school a LOT of years ago is just enough to pick up "you have nothing" - or "not?") - the rest is Greek, er, German, to me.
Great job though. The facial expressions were fantastic.

Jesus, Chrimess, that is awesome. Way to take a hard song and make it..well...acoustic. That infant crying makes it!
Here's the original by Rammstein, for those who live in a white cloud and never let their heads get in the gray rain of heavy metal.

Thanks for your kind words guys- just being German and playing evil,alone, should not win the contest, though- the baby was so happy since she had just had a majorly dirty diaper- the smell made it a one take video session...

THAT explains the facial expressions! LOL
So this can be edited up right? I'm trying to do a multi track deal... ish... it's not great, but I wanted to play around with a song for this. I've got most of the audio for the song laid down, so now I just need to record video...

Rules state 1) "electric song" 2) done with an acoustic uke as the main instrument 3) entered by Feb 14, 2012
Beyond that it is wide open to interpretation. GO CRAZY!!

One week into the contest, and there's one entry? For all that swag--more than I've seen in any contest to date. I mean, with all due respect, Mim's razzle dazzle contest had about 250 thread replies, and she was giving away one measly Makaii. And, it had a broken neck!
Looking forward to some video, men and ladies. Ukeeku has cornered the market on contests with this one.

i have never upped a vid before but i am working on a couple now, i have no decent recording hardware only a nokia cellphone and my laptop, but this competition has prompted me to dip my toe into the competition water, i don't mind if i don't win but it has given me a reason to at last upload a vid, so please be gentle with me with your critism when it does appear coz i am extremely shy and concientious, thanx for giving me the push i needed Ukeeku

I'm sure there'll be LOADS of entries as February draws nearer. I am going to enter, just gotta find the right time to sit down and actually film the song I've chosen. Unfortunately I've been a little distracted by my new Eleuke, which I obviously can't use for this competition!
SWEET!!! I worked out a short version of a 7 minute song xD almost got the video done. It's not what I'll consider my "main entry," just a song I thought would be fun. Minimal time put into it xD I might have the video up tonight.

I've tentatively chosen about four songs - want to multi-track them and do them right so I probably won't have any entries until close to the deadline - that's assuming I can find the time at all.
I suspect most others are "heads down" working up something special...
