Talilele Ukulele Orchestra, Uke’s Not Dead: UkeTube

Two nominees for last year’s video of the year in this week’s selection (be sure to cast your vote if you haven’t yet). But the act that caught my attention (thanks to Humble Uker) was the Talilele Ukulele Orchestra from Kobe. They’re stretching the instruments used and creating a massive sound.

Also this week Uke’s Not Dead singing about Jeremy Kyle (think Jerry Springer without a sense of humour), Des O’Connor and Tricity Vogue singing a song that sounds like a Jeremy Kyle show (don’t listen to that song- I’m warning you), me breaking the Beatles embargo and more besides.

If you’re still jonesing for more: here’s William H Macy busting out the uke for pro-choice and an interesting video from Richard Durrant.
