The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britian

I love unique stuff and boring things from a unique perspective. I just discovered the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britian which is composed of two women and six men playing - wait for it - ukuleles. Although one appears to be an acoustic guitar but I didn't count the strings and it could actually be a baritone or bass uke for all I know.

Here they play Ennio Morricone's theme from the 1966 Clint Eastwood classic, "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly."

Genius. Stinkin' genius. There is an innocence to the piece that almost makes me weep with delight. No. Not almost. I can unashamedly say that I wept with delight.

Going to a completely different genre, here is the same group playing Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

Genius. Stinkin' genius, only without the weeping part. I simply grinned like an idiot.

UPDATE: I counted the strings on the guitar in the groups performance of the theme from the 1971 flick "Shaft" and found only four. That makes it a big, honking UKULELE.
