Yep seeing Eddie's solo show is what got me into wanting to learn the uke. I haven't got the songbook, I wish I did, maybe I should keep an eye out for it on ebay. At my uke group class we learnt how to play a basic version of "Rise", obviously it doesn't sound as nice as Eddie on the mandolin, but it is still fun to play.

I'll definitely post a thread here once voting starts with the competition. Every little vote will count and I'd really appreciate any votes.

That's so cool that you and your husband sing "Tonight You Belong To Me" as a duet. Have you seen the movie "The Jerk", that's where I first heard the song before hearing Ed sing it, and I absolutely love that movie .

I haven't seen 'The Jerk', but will look it up! Thanks hon!

Also Emma you HAVE to get the songbook. Buy it on eBay asap! It's so lovely! The book itself is beautiful (lovely paper and images) but learning EV's songs? Yep as a huge fan it's pretty bloody awesome. It's like he's your teacher! It makes you feel close to him somehow. Which as you know is all any of us really want.

You too Ocean. BUY IT!

If you like old Steve Martin movies, I definitely recommend watching it. It's from 1979, its a silly movie, but it's funny .

This is the trailer:

In the Iconoclasts episode with Eddie & Laird, Laird Hamilton makes a reference to the Jerk when he's chatting to Eddie on that cliff-top and Eddie really laughed, so maybe Ed is familiar with the movie too.


I had a look on ebay, but they are only selling the hardcover ukulele songs book for ridiculous amounts of money. So I've 'saved' the search so ebay can email me if any more are listed . I'd love to get my hands on the book. I love playing Eddie's music, i've got EV on the brain, so when I try and practice an EV song, I can hear the song in my head. Just getting it onto the ukulele is the challenge!

One of the best scenes from the movie, imo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqtmXnQZ6Qk And according to an interview I read, knowing the song from the movie is why Ed put the song on Ukulele Songs. And coincidentally one of the biggest reasons I had to have the CD and then the vinyl.
