I don't why I'm watching this... I literally just learned to plat "You are my Sunshine" using C, F and G.

I thought I could play ukelele, until I saw you play

SHE'S THE LING-LING OF UKULELE!!!

When you wanted an electric guitar but got a ukulele instead

How do you only have 35k subscribers?!?! I saw the first three seconds of your Carmen/Phantom video and immediately subscribed. OBSESSED.

Omg how can anyone give her bad feedback , she just here to help & she’s amazing

wow, what an intelligent teacher you are, great with camera angles to show whats the best way to pick a chord. just amazing good soul without inhibitions sharing the knowledge.

Her: get a pointer acrylic nail Me(a guy): I guess I'm gonna be emo

I’m so glad I found your channel! Not to bash on other youtubers but everyone else focuses on teaching basic songs while you teach actual techniques for what is a real instrument often treated like a toy. I can’t wait to try to teach myself to play better with your videos!

My ukulele heroine! Thanks so much for your inspirational videos, they mean so much to those of us learning to play and living in places were tuition is not easily come back. I named both my ukuleles after you - Taimane 1 and Taimane 2!

Taimane....I think there is some truth in the old saying, "It's hard to teach an old dog new tricks." However this older gent has learned a lot from your videos, which to say the least... are phenomenal. Thanks for taking the time to teach some great tips on ukelele playing. I have watched a bunch of videos, but you are my "go to" resource for all things ukelele. I encourage others to watch your fantastic ukelele playing. Thanks.

Triple pick???? I can't even hardly single pick!!!

Your fingers look like pneumatic machines. Pretty cool how precise you hit the fret board. Please make more instructional videos, they’re hella informative

On top of all the other plaudits, she’s actually a really good teacher

You are my new favorite ukulele player! My jaw literally drops when you play. The inspiration of your playing has truly given me a new hope, and more positive outlook on life. Now I look forward to coming home from work every day just so I can practice. Thanks so much for sharing this lesson!!

Im a dude, would i look good with those fake nails?

To me it just sounds like it’s gonna break the ukelele in two seconds

i love you girl! so much inspiration. plus helpful tutorials!!

I’m a guitar player why am I here

Oh my gosh, this is so helpful! I think this is my favoutite uke tutorial video I've seen so far on youtube, because it's just straightforwardly teaching a technique, not hiding it with a bunch of other stuff about how to play some particular song.

You are my inspiration Taimane, thank you for giving us your wisdom! I’ve not done any plectrum type of strum up to now so can’t wait to have a go at this!

I've been picking with my fingernails for 50 years, and using my pinky finger for the anchor. I never noticed till just a few years ago watching of video of me playing that sometimes my pinky finger slips up under the strings to mute them. I play slide on a 1963 Harmony Stella tenor (4-string) guitar.

Omg I just learned how to use a pick in 5 minutes. You are awesome!!

You are so generous to share with us!

How do you add the accent? I can manage to do the simple blblblbl movement, but the accent takes a skill that is beyond my understanding. I notice the change in sound, but cannot see anything about your hand movement :0

Thank you!!! I hope there is more to come, I had always admired your style of play :)

This is amazing, thank you for sharing! I’d love to see an extended tutorial where you break down that little song you played with this technique!

Great tutorial; love your gentle spirit...

your so good at ukulele and tutorials!

I have always appreciated your artistry, flair and skill. Seeing you perform is a treat; dancing fire gig while you played was an honor. Aloha nui Taimane!

The best tutorial for a ukelele ever..Thanks Taimane

Well thought out lesson expertly delivered. Triplet sound is reminiscent of the sound Dick Dale got on guitar. Must try it. Love that beautiful 5 string Kamaka too. Thanks for your post.

Thank you for sharing your expertise 💕

Thanks for the great tips, Taimane! I've struggled with that technique, so this really helps!

Thank you, you’re awesome Taimane!

You are always my best ukulele teacher without your notice

Wow. You are a fabulous teacher. !!!

Thank you! loved this.

Awesome tip about the angle of the pick, thanks!

WOW!!! So that's how they make that magical sound! Amazing & beautiful! ☺

I have been playing electric guitar for years, and I find this very video, the ukulele, and Taimane amazing!! Was in awe after seeing you play live... AND all that coming out of a such small transportable, wonderful instrument!!! You make it look so darn easy, BUT IT IS NOT!!! Love it, thx so much Taimane :-) :-)

Great tutorial cannot wait to practice this

You ROCK! I'm just learning but admire your playing so much.

Fantastic lesson! Thank you very much. I love my ukulele.

I am so interested in your skill set!! You are an amazing performer and instructor!

YOU are AWESOME! Thank YOU for teaching us !

Great job. Thank you. I play lead and rhythm 🎸, and like using my fingers. Love your stuff!

Love your playing ,young lady, WOW! Soo good and fun, fantastic performances! Great job,Good luck and Cheers!

I love you! You’re my #1 Ukelele player in the whole world!!!

I wished i had known you three years ago, just love your talents your music are just amazing love ya. ❤️

I am a ukulele player and find that the ukulele tends to slip a lot when I play, my left thumb gets tense in my fretting hand, and my playing sounds a bit too quiet for performing. Could you please do a tutorial on how to hold the instrument in a way that is stable and optimal in terms of resonance as well as the best fretting hand position(s)? I mostly play my tenor. I know it's just the foundational stuff, but I admire your musicianship tremendously and would be grateful to hear from you what it is that you do. I have my fingers crossed that you'll consider posting a video on this soon. Thank you!!!

Love it thank you. Keep em coming

You are so talented!💕💕💕

Thank you for this tutorial. This is very good when we have long notes to play.

Thank you so much Taimane for sharing your talents! 🌷🌷🌷 Triple picking! I was looking for info on how to improve this technique which I don’t even know how to call it until I saw this video! 💡You have millions of fans these days 🤩🥰 but still find time to share your amazing ukulele know-how! You are beautiful inside and out! 😍 I wish you all the best! 🍎🌻🌈🙏

You don't even have half of the Thumbs Up you really deserve. But I looove what you do, I am fascinated with all of your videos! Hugs from Colombia.
