LYRICS DOWN HURR
She knows this feeling all too well
She feels her heart begin to swell
Handsome stranger
You have made her insides turn to jelly
She wants to dance around the room
Kiss you until your lips turn blue
But handsome stranger
You have made her wonder... Is she pretty?
And it's too late
She believes in fate
She's absolutely smitten
And she'll never let you go
That girl just there yes she's the one
With cupid's arrow in her BUM
Handsome stranger you have made her happy
The first in a long time!
Did you just whisper in her ear?
Words she only dreamed to hear?
Pretty lady
Look at how he's smiling,
I think he likes you!
And it's too late
You believe in fate
You're absolutely smitten,
You'll never let her go
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHWOAAAAHOHHHhohohohohhahsdhasdhkajsdhlkd
And it's too late
I believe in fate! ;D
I'm absolutely smitten, I'll never let you go
I'LL NEVER LET YOU GOOOOOOOOowoooooooooahhhhhhajshdalkjd

Dodie: "Crongrats , you can now play absolutely smitten" Me: uh no lol
For a while, I REALLY wanted to learn how to play ukulele, but I always thought it was difficult. However, after watching this, I realized it wasn't as hard as it seemed, and even if it was, I absolutely loved this song, so I just HAD to learn it. Almost a year later, and I've learned, like, 25 songs at least. I think, without this video, I might not have learned how to play when I did.

Jess Holley try using a plectrum/pick thingy. I can't strum to save my life but I found it a lot easier using one of them. It does tend to make the sound louder and harsher but it's very useful

So if anyone wants to play this on another instrument the chords are: A major, A Sus 4, A major, A Major 7 -3, D Major add 9.

+Anton Palmborg The A Sus 4 is an A Sus4 Add9, from what I can tell. That is the B she uses for the bassline travelling A, B[!], C#, E, D. Which is also why I think it is pretty important to stress the bass-notes in all the chords. A, Asus4+9(B), A(C#), Amaj7(E), D+9

but a lot of the chords for her songs on there are also wrong, like I went on there for this song and it the only chord that she actually plays in the song is the a chord and it had several chords that didn't even sound right, though it is typically quite good for learning songs that aren't originally on the ukulele
Got a uke for Christmas and I'm attempting this three days after...wish me luck! :)

I bought a uke for many reasons, most of which to learn to play this song
Omg hearing this live back in march was the best thing ever. Can’t wait to see you again
Thank you for uploading this,it's so helpful&lovely the fact you've taken the time to record it for the people that want to learn it
Learning this while I'm sleepy is a bad idea but I'm still trying?? Like I want to learn it so bad but I also need sleep but I can only sleep when I'm able to play the song, at least kinda slow???

Oh my god , I just realised, the absolutely smitten riff is the intro for most of your videos and I'm so mind blown. By the way I love your videos, your voice and beautiful songs and am currently trying to learn to play them on my uke.
DODIE I LOVE YOU!!! You're so adorable and talented and I can't even deal 🙈
it's been 7 years and now finally have an ukulele to learn this song
watching this in 2022, its just incredible how far this awesome girl has gone.
Thank you so much!! I love this song and was so excited when i learned it!! Love you!
Yay this is the first song I have learned on the ukulele and I am so excited
thank you can't wait to try out the song it's my fav atm! love you
I've been playing uke for about 3 years now, and I'm really enjoying this!!

Anyone have any tips on keeping the rhythm with the strumming whilst singing? As soon as I start singing, I lose the pattern.

The way I do it is slowing down the tempo and singing at a slow pace and then gradually getting faster until I've got the coordination right. Hope that helps you! :)

Memorise either the chords or the lyrics by heart and then add the other one in. The one you memorised will be planted in your brain and you'll be able to do it without even thinking

Gemma Pettersen Play the song without singing for a bit first, until you can play it through pretty well, then add singing. It can take a while.

For me it works by singing lowly while I play. At first you lose the rythm or you slurr the lyrics and it can be frustrating but if you keep insisting your brain will catch up and be able to do both things at the same time

you should make more of these they're really helpful!!
Just got a uke for my birthday today, so excited to play this!
I'm not even kidding, I spend all day yesterday watching it to work out the chords. They were right but I spend so much time on it!!!! Never mind :)
My ukulele arrived today deffinatly going to learn this once I get my head around the chords :D
Finally something new I can try to learn, thankyou!!
Ten years later, it’s just been my birthday and I got a uke, I am now learning this and hoping it is the first song I play on a ukulele!!

Chords in order are: A major, B minor, C# minor, E major, D major. They have a slightly different names (except A major) because of the open strings but that's what they are called.

"If you have a dot" Ummm... well, you see.... I'm left handed, so all my instruments, bar my electric guitar, are right handed. I just get the strings flipped. So yes, I do have dots.... they're just on the bottom of the neck where they're useless and unhelpful XD

Yeah, my acoustic and my ukulele are flipped. My guitar because it was my first so it was easier and cheaper, and my uke because have you ever seen a left-handed ukuele?? XD The only reason my electric is left-handed is because I wanted the cuts in the right place. Very hard to do solos when you can't reach the 25th fret :D

Basically, ignore the dot closest to the body and mess around with the positioning of the last two chords until they sound right?
@spottedstar1123
8 жыл бұрын
for future people who have soprano ukes, here's how to play the last 2 chords: the first one should have your middle finger on the fret right above the last fret (aka the 9th fret) and your index finger on the fret right below that (aka the 8th fret). for the last chord, just slide your fingers down 2 frets so your index finger is on the second dot (7th fret) and your index finger is right below it (6th fret)
