    Hi Ukulele friends, hi Andrew,
    I am sending you best Christmas wishes with my humble attempt of Mariah Carey’s Christmas Classic „All I Want for Christmas is You“.
    It is the most difficult song I have played so far, especially as no tutorial exists for this arrangement, so your feedback of what I could do better is as always highly welcome.
    What makes the song so difficult is that in the speedy strumming part nearly always either the E and A string or the G string need to be muted.
    When playing I was quite happy with what I have reached, but now listening to my recording the quick part feels a bit rushed and I think it might be better when I play it a little slower and get the rhythm more steady and the notes clearer?

    Happy strumming,
    Andrea

    Sounds great, Andrea! Only advice I’d offer is exactly what you said in the last sentence: to practice sections at a slower tempo so you can focus on cleaning up your playing and tightening the rhythm/timing.
