Clock Opera, Love Leighs: UkeTube

A lack of visual appeal from some of this week’s videos with Wendall Hall and May Singhi Breen hailing from a time before Flips and webcams. No such excuse for Clock Opera who put up a teaser video for this song ages ago but I’ve waited and there’s still nothing.

The rest of the videos are, of course, a feast for the eyes with people who are uniformly radiant as a sunrise made flesh.

Clock Opera – A Piece Of String

Michelle Blades – My Own Home

Lila Burns – Driven

Fred King and May Singhi Breen – Waitin’ Around

Wendell Hall – It Ain’t Gonna Rain No Mo

Love Leighs – Sparks Fly

Audrey Lighting – Welcome Tokyo

    The fake ukulele orchestra disabled likes/dislikes now. I guess the dislikes were mounting too high. Certainly not the caliber of the UOGB.

    There’s something about Lila’s videos that give me a little smile inside… I want to sing along even though I don’t know the words… so I make some up.

    AND, I really enjoyed Audrey Lighting’s vid too… it wasn’t what I was expecting at all- I think I want flashing lights on one of my ukes now!

    akehawa was a cheery enough background that I actually walked over and started cleaning my kitchen…

    thanks for those today!

    Carl: Thanks for letting me know. An inevitable development.

    L.bo: I definitely do want one of those lighty-up ukes.

    todd: Glad you enjoyed!

    That Michelle Blades cover is absolutely fantastic. Haunting almost. Certainly wouldn’t mind if that got tabbed out. ;)

    The Love Leighs are amazing – Miss Jess rocks my world. I highly recommend their new album ‘Lively’.

    I want a lighty-up ukulele too now.

    nick: Not planning on doing any baritone tabs in the near future, I’m afraid.

    Bossa: I’m going to email you my reply – too hot for the blog!

    Michelle Blades cover is brilliant! Thank you so much for these

    Clock Opera reminds me of Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music, maybe if they had gone New Wave in the 80’s.

    I love Lila Burns’ song/video! The song is fabulous and it isn’t often that one sees a well filmed/arranged video like that for an original song. Good stuff.

    I’ll have to check out the rest of her channel…

    that akehawa video was amazing, mannnn

  12. Woodshed July 28th, 2010 8:27 pm

    Michelle: Agreed. Thanks for your contribution.

  13. Woodshed July 28th, 2010 8:57 pm

    Fishburn: You’re welcome.

    Jill: Have to admit, I’ve always hated Roxy Music.

    Paul: Do. She’s got so much good stuff on there.

    Love the last one! It would be awesome to see some tabs of him.
