Ukelele Orchestra of Great Britain

String instruments aren't my bag, but man, if they were... I think I'd consider participation in this group to be the height of achievement for a uke player.

Nemoren, I'm lookin' at you.

Everything else of theirs I've watched on youtube is worthwhile, but other favorites include their versions of "Life on Mars" and the theme from "Shaft".

I like their rendition of Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights"!

I thought their version of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit was quite brilliant too.

Whoa. I've seen these guys before, but doing Morricone? With the whistling bits? I freaking love this.
