Thing is they're using ukes to sound 'cute' in advertising & elsewhere in a cloying way ...much as banjo got jacked to represent being 'down home' in such contexts ...leaves me feeling - yer a great big grownup - you can have a gittar now ...also they tuned different & I don't play 'em so just resentful. :D

Hi adamdoesit.

Mr. Oxford:

@Revolution Rabbit Nov63, I agree with you. Having played guitar for many years, I wanted to experience learning a new string instrument. The reasons you mentioned were exactly why I did not want to take up the ukulele. But then I discovered traditional Hawaiian music which used the instrument in a humble way. There was also this picture of Joe Strummer playing one which got to me. So I got one and have been enjoying playing it for a month or so now. As @Coelacanth∅ mentioned, definitely some good can come from any instrument. I'm finding jazz and funk easier to play on the uke than on the guitar. It's just a different playing experience.

Harpsichord of course a moderately frequent signature instrument in Psychedelic Rawk~Pop... It's a distinct & evocative timbre obviously - but I suppose I can see a real large dose of it (Sonatas maybe) grating like clatter if one were so disposed towards the texture...
  1:49pm
Mr. Oxford:

@Irene Trudel, loads of Magnetic Fields songs use ukuleles. Especially ones from 69 Love Songs such as "The Sun Goes Down and the World Goes Dancing", "Kiss Me Like You Mean It", etc. They also had a song called "This Little Ukulele"

i like the way Tori Amos has used a harpsichord, but loathe the way Bjork did! ...for example.
so, i guess there are more than a handful of positive harpsichord experiences, just between Tori's songs and a few classical pieces i like.

Conductor Sir Thomas Beecham famously likened the sound of a harpsichord to that of "two skeletons copulating on a tin roof in a thunderstorm." Maybe he saw that in a movie.
