googling “starman on ukulele” first hit

This is getting slightly creepy now.

#2: I think cute girls with ukeleles count as “wonderful things”, so this is a great place to keep them. I say more cuteness and more tiny string instruments!

Check out Britainy Paiva on the uke if you get the chance. She’s a Hawaiian prodigy.

Mark, for the love of whatever gods may or may not be, please do not stop posting videos with the “girls playing ukes” theme. They make my day — seriously. Ignore the naysayers!!!
mcgringostarr

uke p0rn.

songs about cheetohs. saves time.
Schmikey

Can we have less banjos though?
KidDork

Can we maybe balance this out with cute girls just shredding some metal guitar now and again? Pixies can rock out too, y’know.

She’s eerily similar to my younger sister. Young unkempt illustration major living in a tiny apartment.

She only plays full-scale banjo, though.

Pineapple Pete and Linus need to make friends with Marvin the Metronome.

And yes, she’s adorable.
pinehead

Every time you post one of these, Mark, it makes me smile and mentally reiterate the obvious: “aw, she’s so cute.” That’s not something I find myself thinking too often.

There is something beautiful about a girl playing a song on a ukelele. The two just go together so well, and the songs are always so enjoyable.
bondjamesbond

if someone could figure out how to attach brass gauges and pipe fittings to these girls, there would be a massive boing boing orgasm that would probably register on the Richter scale.
tape

You know how a while back you had that RSS feed that didn’t include Xeni’s sex stuff?

Could you make an non-ukulele RSS feed?

Every fucking hipster asshole in Boston plays the ukulele and it’s got to be the most obnoxious phenomenon of all time.
Neuron

These ukelele videos are insipid.
mdh

She is just too sweet. I need to brush my teeth.

gahhh, i’m in love. banjo girl, i love you! take me away!!
arkizzle

Steady on there Tape!

Space-bar or scroll-wheel, your choice.
arkizzle

Insipidly great?
arkizzle

Phikus! Excellent reworking!
Mark Frauenfelder

I’m so glad you enjoy them, everyone! And to those you say they don’t like them: I know you secretly love them. Don’t worry, I won’t stop posting them.
weewillie

yesssss… BoingBoing, BoingBoingoffworld, BoingBoinggadgets, BoingBoingTV….

BoingBoingcuteirlswithukelels.com -IT ONLY MAKES SENSE!!!!

C’mon, Mark!!! I don’t think we need EVERY cute girl with Ukelele posted on boingboing.

However, if there was a website that only collected cute girls with Ukeleles I would check in every day!

Weak.

I’ve heard “La Marseillaise” on a balalaika with a spork for a pick.

I’m in the market for moar.

Say it with me, Mark: Ukeladies 4 eva!:)
fantasmaglow

So sorry to say this, but I think Tape has the right idea. I actually liked the other uke videos, but for many reasons, this video seems to include everything that makes me mad and irritated about my fellow art students. This girl bugs me immensely.
Brettspiel

Would be better if she didn’t talk.
Brettspiel

Tragically hipster.
Brettspiel

Brett – Would be better if she didn’t talk.

MDH – Right back at you Brett.

I’ll keep that in mind next time I’m tempted to post a video of myself being especially “sunny.”
Phikus

I look at you all see the love there that’s sleeping
While her ukulele gently plinks
I look at her bed and I feel I need sleeping
Still her ukulele gently plinks

I don’t know why nobody told you
how to unfold who you are
I don’t know why nobody told you
how to use the space bar

I look at the web and the talent it’s churning
While her ukulele gently plinks
With every cute uke clip though we get comments burning
Still her ukulele gently plinks

I don’t know how you weren’t diverted
it seems perverted too
I don’t know why, this, you’ve not skirted
no one inserted you

I look at you all see the love there that’s sleeping
While her ukulele gently plinks
I look at you all
Still her ukulele gently plinks

Oh, oh, oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah
Takuan

remember “love-bombing”? What some nut-bar religious cult called brainwashing recruits by overwhelming them with the message? How about the Cut Girl Ukelele Underground love-bombing all the sites of nay-sayers until they convert? Or kill themselves. We could come into their homes with video after video…yeah….
mdh

Tape – Every fucking hipster asshole in Boston plays the ukulele and it’s got to be the most obnoxious phenomenon of all time.

Second most. Most annoying is when the hipster asshole can’t smell his own bul… ahem.

fantasma this video seems to include everything that makes me mad and irritated about my fellow art students. This girl bugs me immensely.

Because her type (sunny) won’t give your type (navel-gazing hyper-critical douchebag) her digits? Get used to it with that attitude.

Brett – Would be better if she didn’t talk.

Right back at you Brett.
SDZion

I’d like to put in that I enjoy the series of cute girls playing ukuleles.
Bugs

My cousin bought a ukelele about two years ago and plays it pretty well – mostly upbeat, plinky songs with interesting rhythms. That’s all good fun, but he keeps promising to show me the video of the time he took the uke and a pickup mike to rehearse with the Iron Maiden cover band he plays guitar for. Other family members have told me it was aktually pretty rockin’.
mdh

Phikus, you said that so much better than I just did there. I’m totally signing up for your next class.
Gainclone

Misanthrope needs to learn to microphone.
pahool

I regularly check youtube for anyone doing a ukulele version of “Starman” by David Bowie. Anyone who does it gets five stars from me, no matter what. If ever a song was written for uke, it’s Starman.
