   I’m with you there… “Come as you are” was the only Nirvana song that hit through with me back when the baby floated into the record stores.

   I actually prefer Heart-Shaped Box, but when I play this song my friends all recognize it. Thanks for this.

   Heart-Shaped Box is definitely a good one. I don’t know how it would work on the uke though.

   l’esprit du ukulélé adolescent…

   Semblant au départ être assez mal adaptée au ukulélé (ce n’est pas Al “UkeHunt” wood qui démentira cette idée), la chanson Smell Like Teen spirit connait pourtant un étonnant engouement et de nombreuses reprises sur le petit instrument ;……

   after you have played the final two do you go back to the start or to the second bar

   Fat Sam: You go from the end of bar three to the start of bar 2.

    I LOVE YOU! I found Uke hunt just at that pivotal point of frustration – to keep learning or jump ship. Thanks for the re-inspiration…

    meko: Thanks. I’m proud to have re-inspired you.

    The third note in the third measure (open C) should be C# (third string, first fret).

    A must know riff. I wish I could play whole song.

    If you want you can just repeat it in a loop from the fourth note.

    Is this to the original, or do you have to tune down?
