Week # 60 is here! I'm upping my equipment game this week by using a microphone and some studio lighting. I just bought a couple lighting softboxes this week and I've been pretty impressed with the well - rounded light they provide for both videos and photos. Especially considering that they were pretty inexpensive.
You and I by Ingrid Michaelson was actually the first song I ever learned to play on the ukulele! For those who haven't heard the original song - it is a mainly acoustic ukulele performance. A few weeks after I bought a ukulele and started learning, I actually had a Hawaii trip with some girlfriends planned and so I asked if they had any requests! This is the only request I got (expect a ridiculous amount of Disney songs from one friend)... and so it's what I learned! The girls I was going with were all theater buddies and so we were pretty used to singing and being silly together!
Unfortunately, the friend who requested this song ended up canceling last minute, and so I was stuck with a bunch of Disney requests from my other friend. I played a lot of Aladdin and Lion King that trip.
Either way, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for this song because it was my first. :)
I hope you enjoy my cover of You and I! I really appreciate you taking the time to listen. As always, thanks to @luzcypher and @pfunk for hosting this amazing weekly contest. The open mic community is my favorite little corner on Steemit.
