Oh my gosh, I have no idea how people decide these things!!
Sorry it has taken me so long.
On the up side, I learned how to make a playlist on youtube when it's not my own videos. So that's cool!
If I got it right, here's the playlist.

Commentary, sorry for the vague names, as I don't recall the correlation between youtube names and uu screen names:
Matty Groves, by Berni. Love this, as I sing Shady Grove often at group jams. You have an excellent voice! Scandal is always fun.
Greenland Whale Fish thingy, by Berni. I don't know the traditional song this is based on but I liked it very much even though I'm not partial to protest-type songs. I could totally see this at some Greenpeace sit in.
Caspar's Song, by Berni. Dude, you are a contest machine! This is hilarious. I may have to learn it.
Toxic, by the Ukelites. I think this song suits you guys just perfectly. It fits your very cool groove.
Home in the Hood, by portly knight. What a lovely deep voice! I work in the "hood" and it definitely takes a keen eye to find the daisies in the sidewalk cracks.
Knitting song, by Kurt. You have a lovely group! I wouldn't have thought to combine a uke group with a traditional "stitch and bitch" session. Love it!
Fairytale of NY, by Geoff. What a lovely song! I've never heard that before. Especially when it gets to the uptempo part, it totally felt like a pub song. Pass a pint!
Take Me Out To The Ballgame, by Red. You are frickin' hilarious as always. It reminded me of when I was a kid and the whole Reagan cold war thing was going on so we heard a lot about Russia and they were always the bad guys in the movies.
MmmBop, by Ken. I've always loved the lyrics of this song but not Hanson's execution of it. You've improved upon it immensely!
Flo Rida, by Doug. Just about pissed myself laughing. Keep yo' pimp hand strong, brotha.
U-K-U-L-E-L-E, by Myrna. I love your voice. I remember you from UWC, such a distinctive singing style. This should be the theme song for this website.
Supersize me, by Gary. Someone already supersized your ukulele! Very well written and something we can all identify with, I think.
Uke en Suisse, by Lily. I don't know the original this is based on, but it is so pretty! Such good writers in this group! Ukey kiokey kiyay is super catchy.
Down with the Sickness, by Isaac. (Ads! Apparently youtube knows I've been browsing tin ceiling tiles lately.) I actually really like the original song, and I like how your interpretation opens it up to people who wouldn't normally listen to that genre being exposed to the lyrics.
Rawhide/Kalina, by Red. Man, I never know what to say except to bust out laughing. Alternative histories crack me up - that's one thing I'm not creative enough for, to make these backstories.
This took WAY longer than I thought it would to go through all of them. And I truly apologize for making y'all wait so long.
So.... should I make you wait for an announcement video? Or should I just spill?
I believe I shall spill.
And to apologize for the delay...
I shall have two winners!!!
Ready?
DOUG AND MYRNA!!!!!!!
