    Loving this series. Can’t wait to see what you choose.
    My picks:
    1. Billie Jean
    2. While my Guitar gently weeps
    3. What a wonderful world

    I’ve learned what a wonderful world but need to re-learn it. Haven’t played it in over a year.

    @gi_gi_ great picks you have there! 😊

    My confidence in knowing the difference between an arrangement / cover / original is not very high. I find things like that very confusing. 😂

    My picks:

    1. Bach’s Cello Prelude No. 1 arr. by John King. (Also think this is one of your picks this time, Matt, with about 70% certainty. 😅)

    2. Hallelujah arr. by Jake Shimabukuro (A.K.A. J-Shims).

    Just heard that for the first time during the Music and Meals For Maui Charity Live Stream. So flippin’ beautiful and for a great cause. I actually just rewatched that whole concert over the course of last week. Highly recommend it and donating if you can.

    3. All the lovely arrangements on Rock Class 101. They’re the best on the Internetubes.

    Thank you! 😊

    I think that one of the most popular fingerpicking tunes among ukulele players is bodysurfing.

    That was a great live. Caught the replay. I want to learn the Bach’s Cello Prelude #1.
    Great picks everyone.
