Looking for ukulele videos these days is very annoying with about 10 000 uploads a day (I’m hardly exagerating) of the same video of the little Asian kid doing a cover of I’m Yours. Still, I managed to find a few Christmas songs from around the world for you to enjoy !
1. France
Petit Papa Noël covered by the Good Vibes Ukulele Orchestra. They should have called themselves “The Rolling Ukes”.
Le Père Noël by sur1étoile
2. Japan
Ukulele Christmas by yosinobu1950
Keonepax is originally from Hawaii but now lives in Japan. Here is his rendition of Jingle Bell Rock.
3. United States
Blue Christmas by Crooner Rick Russo and Renee Rogers
4. Germany
Weinachten (Christmas) puppets singing Have yourself a merry little Christmas
5. United Kingdom
AnnaUK is covering Santa Baby in a blinking Christmas light outfit.
6. New Zealand
A Merry Christmas Greeting from New Zealand with a cover of Achy Breaky Heart.
7. Italy
Looks like there’ll be a fun Christmas party in Italy judging from this video Natale Sta Arrivando
8. The Netherlands
Dutch Christmas carol Heb je het al gehoord performed at Amersfoort’s zoo.
9. Canada
Christmas greetings from Canada with a ukulele sleigh ride

It’s crazy how often that kid’s video is getting reposted. It’s about half the videos. It’s even worse on Twitter.
Anyhoo, thanks for the vids. I think the Canadian animation wins on style and Italy wins for good times.

Al : I know. The worst thing with this video is how many people are claiming to have the original video uploaded directly from their webcam, sometimes from very unlikely parts of the world…
Canada and Italy, your vote is registered. Looks like nobody is going to challenge that ;)
