100 Days of Ukulele Learning #25 - The Man Who Sold The World by David Bowie/Nirvana

in #dtube5 years ago (edited)


Hi Friends!

What day is it? Day 25!!!! Yaaaaahooooo 💃💃💃💃

For 25 days now am ruining your ears and speakers, sorry! ✌🤣✌🤣

I am so happy, I cannot hide it! No, not about your ears, for that, am truly sorry 😁 Am happy that it's only 75 more days until I get to my 100th day of this challenging (to me) project of mine 🤣

I read @zekepickleman's comment said his little one just started learning ukulele this year and that it's her 1st instrument. Idk how old your daughter is, uncle Zeke, but am in my 40s and it's my 1st instrument too (well, that I have not given up yet, at least) 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thus, am giggly happy that my project is going "well" 😁

To top that, Google Play Music chose a very special song for day 25, what a coincidence!

Today I have The Man Who Sold The World, another all time favorite song of mine. Do you know this song?

Here is the lyrics!

We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn't there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
I thought you died alone
A long long time ago

Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world

I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
We walked a million hills
I must have died alone
A long, long time ago

Who knows?
Not me
I never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world

Who knows?
Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world

aaaah you watched til the end then :D yes, I think so too. thanks!!

You are right - I knew it from nirvana but I also knew that it was from Bowie since some years.

Love your version!! Keep on going dear ukulele queen!
I like the way you recorded also the other takes!

Which brand is this ukulele and can you recommend it?

Peace!

#awesomediycontent

you are too kind @tibfox!

its a cheap one from Amazon, made in China, called Strong Wind

I do not think it produces nice sound, but my husband thinks its the nylon? he suggests to change those and see :)

I think the ukulele sounds awesome for a cheap one :)

Changing strings can improve for sure but consider to upgrade the whole ukulele before buying expensive strings ;)
I think I'll learn the ukulele someday too and that's why I am looking for a deal to receive the most out of little money :P

Peace!

Excellent, you're truly gifted

lol thanks Wales, I don't think so though, but I am trying hard to learn for sure :)

She is not even in high school yet and it is a wonder to see her motivate herself, experience joy in learning something so cool, and build another block into her personality. That is joy for me.

I also get happiness witnessing people not letting age or busy lives or circumstances stop them from youthfully exploring something new and exciting. As you learn, your brain is evolving and music is great for the soul. As you share, you inspire others. Nothing more noble or rewarding than that.

At 100 days, it will be part of you and yummy will just keep going!

many thanks uncle Zeke, you are so sweet!

For being your very first instrument you have picked it up quite well! I can see you rocking a guitar one day after that.

I dont think I wanna hurt the fingers much hahaha with ukulele, i am using 3 fingers only (mostly), so not bad, but i think with guitar, I will have to use all 4, and I know for now my pinky finger is still a virgin. thats gonna hurt lol

I still love when this comes on the rotation on my ipod (yep, I still have one hooked up in my car since I'm not fancy enough for satellite radio, haha!). Nirvana was definitely one of my favorites when I was younger. I especially loved that MTV Unplugged special. So much talent! Love that you took this on, and of course shared its origin with Bowie. Keep it going lovely lady! I think you're rocking it!
