Sweet song, sweet tone (what uke are you playing?) This song is exactly "in tune" with the long-time tradition of ukulele playing. It sounds like it could have been written anytime in the past 100+ years. Only the subtleties of the lyrics give a hint to its historical place. Most important, your voice is right for the instrument and the song. I'm distressed that so many modern players treat their instrument as a servant to their vocal act, rather than a partner. You've struck the balance. Kudos from an old-timer. Really nice. Sweet song, sweet tone (what uke are you playing?)

To my ears it's perfect as it is. For what it’s worth I think this song is absolutely lovely and you shouldn’t change a thing. To my ears it’s perfect as it is.
