This post isn't going to make much sense unless you're either Taiwanese/Chinese or if you are a fan of Jay Chou (周杰倫, the guy who played Cato in the recent Green Hornet movie).
So I was watching some videos on Youtube a couple of nights ago trying to re-learn Ukulolo (still one of my all time favorite uke arrangements), and some of the related videos were made by some people from Taiwan. So after clicking around some links, I arrived at this instrumental cover of 牛仔很忙, which literally translates to Cowboy Is Very Busy. I've heard this song many times before, and while I wouldn't come close to counting it as one of my favorite songs, it's so campy and weird it's actually kind of catchy.
So I set out to learn that instrumental version and it turned out to be pretty simple. Of course, it would take more than a few days to get smooth playing anything, but I tried taking a video of it anyway. My daughters were near by and decided to join in on the fun by doing silly dances and monkeying around while I played, so I decided to just upload one of these videos. The cover is basically just messing around with the ukulele, so I guess a ghetto version is appropriate.
