Holy cow, you guys, check this out!

Okay, so I've always been of the opinion that the ukelele is a ridiculous, irritating, mock-worthy musical instrument.

For example...

I've played around with one, and it was okay, but it was also, as I said, silly. I mean, I've always wanted to play the guitar, and I find full-sized guitars awkward and somewhat painful to play, so the SIZE of a uke would be ideal. My mom even offered to bring one back for me from Hawaii last month, but I was all, "I do not need a ukelele. In fact, NO ONE "needs" a ukelele. They're pathetic little guitar-wannabes that, when played, make me want to bash my brains in."

...Okay, I may be exagerrating a little.

Now, however, I am forced to eat my words, and I'm more than happy to do so. Witness:

While My Guitar Gently Weeps on a Ukelele


(Another link here if that one doesn't work.)


I've watched/listened to that about half a dozen times already, and it still captivates me.


And I - I kinda want a ukelele now.
