chloe elizabeth do you know what age she started playing ukulele?


Everyone has commented on it but WOW. Can't get over the "I can't play ukulele" line. Really puts life in perspective and gives me hope for growth in my life. Wow, that's cheesy.


Dodie: "Get some of that homework done! No, I'm kidding."

Me, sitting here trying to finish my bio homework: "......."


aww look how far Dodie has come!! So proud :')


"Get some of that homework done! No, I'm kidding" me


Is it weird that I rewatch this repeatedly when I am ill?


Over here in 2017 and fangirling over the fact that YOU'VE COME SO FAR ❤ I'm so happy to see that you're growing so much. It really gives all of us wannabes a little hope that we too can someday become someone amazing and hope to follow our dreams like you've been trying to.

Karma Echols here at the end of 2017- almost 2018. Isn't it crazy how time flies?


Dodie you're honestly so talented, I love this! get well soon! <3


it's basically C, Am, F, and either Fm or G :D <3 I take that as a compliment! ^_^ <3


she did a giveaway a little while later where she gave away the blue uke so no


Wow! Love this song! Your an amazing singer:3 I'm feeling abit ill and its made me feel loads better! I might be coming on saterday:)<3


:) That was awesome! Loved the song. And can I just say your editing and vlogging style/stuff is really good! You are improving with every video! :)


Thanks! I've been ill but am MUCH better! I hope you are also well soon! :D
I am learning the uke also! I already play guitar so it's not that much different. From what I heard you sound pretty good! I'll share your video! -3


So so cuuuute! Ukeles make the cutesiest songs apparently, love it :)


this is the first time I've ever seen this and I happen to be dying of the sniffles. Thanks past Dodie <3


I am SOOO glad Rhett & Link turned me on to you!!!  Your videos are wonderful... not to mention your original song Rain (which i think could be a hit by you or some artist out there!!).

Bravo once again!!


I can't strum with my finger without my ukulele sounding like a dying moose on drugs. <br>Anyone got any advice?

Yayee P. I'm more comfortable using like for fingers at once

+Dani Andrea ooooooooh the claaaaaaaaw!!!!

you use "the claw". there a few videos on youtube about it

+PossiblyAbigail that way you can strum up and down

put your thumb and finger together like you are doing👌🏼 and then press them together and that's how I do it

If not, strum with your thumb instead of your finger, that's what I do :)

+Michelle P. it just takes some practicing to learn to strum correcting. It took me a couple months to be able to strum without it also sounding like a dying cat.

when I strum I use my finger tips, its much easier and it doesn't hurt at all.


shes playing the am chord with her thumb AW


you are the cutest thing ever, you always make my day a little brighter! thanks for being so inexpressibly awesome!


I simply adore your hair in this video! Thank you, I think I actually feel better because of your song! <3


Awesome video! They always seem to make me smile.
Wish I could come to the gathering to meet you, but as I live in Canada I don't think I'll make it ;)


I hope you'll record an album soon coz I'd definitely buy it!


Dodie ur so sweet 💞 and this song is so freakin cute !


your hair looks extremely good in this video! and this song is so funny and cute :)


Adore this song! When I first played ukulele, my finger almost dropped off, but it toughened up after time :)


Aw, this does make me feel better, and I’m not even sick!


Even though ive been a fan of yours since your early videos this is still my favourite. Your beautiful :) Keep up the hard work your obviously going to be as big as Charlie ;) Remember us early fans when your really popular :D
From Phil [From Skype + those live blogs you do]


It honestly makes me so happy when you were like "I met these cool Youtubers" and now you're really good friends with them all!!


My god! you're so talented! so gifted!!!


The difference in the sound of this uke and the ones you play now is brilliant ahaha


Did I ever mention I love your singing and you :)


this has made my day. How far she has come is amazing


that’s actually what I do when I’m sick lol


I always listen to this song when I'm ill. Now is one of those times.


Altough I'm not ill I loved this song...
Actually I'm procrastinating right now but when I read the lyrics you just reminded me of doing my homework... So thanks for that :D
Would be cool if you and Charlie could do a ukulele duet together...

Greetings from Switzerland


omg this is precious. also old but definitely gold.


awww i love this song so much! :D
Even with a sniffly nose, you are still the cutest thing ever <3


Love it! i wish  i had ur singing skills :P


When my best friend was sick I sent this to her. Now we BOTH love you. ^_^


Nwaaaaaaaw! Dodie! :') freaking loved this!


I love how you just, "hmm what to write a song about... Well, I am sick... lets make a song about making a song when being sick." Hmm.. Dèja vu?... Anybody? ..No?
Anyway, great song Dodie!
It made my day, as your videos always do. :)


I'm ill with an out of tune ukulele hmmmm I'll sing this song.


I love seeing how she's been influenced by the Vlogbrothers (just a little bit). DFTBA, and calling the dooblydoo the "dooblydoo"... :)


I'm so ill so I've decided to watch all of my favourite youtubers talk about sickness. I don't feel so aloneeeee but please god make my nose stop running


I remember when I was learning uke and it used to hurt my fingers so bad and I forgot until watching this now lmao it doesn't hurt anymore ahah that's nice 😅😂


Wow. It's amazing to see hoje far she got. Woooow.


The next time someone I know gets sick I will be happy to send this to them!


Hey what's the chords for this I'm a beginner and love your song :)


Are ukulele's hard to learn how to play or is it easy to teach yourself? :)


im home sick, so this is just what i needed :D thank you!


When I'm next ill I'm going to just watch this song... :D


The world is on fire and I bought a cheap ukulele. I love your voice so much & your creativity & heart. I love your lyrics. I’ve been listening to you since I found out about you. 4 months ago. I will learn this song of yours & will it be ok with you if I play it to my friends/family on social media? Can’t visit many of them. It’s a long shot to get a responds but I’d like to find out if you do lol Nothing to loose


bless this dodie! she was like i met musicalbethan, well dear early 2012 dodie, spoiler alert - in 2013 you went to turkey on holiday with her...OMG!!!


I know this is so old but i think its cute and you should toats post a tutorial on it with the strum pattern and chords and all that good stuff. ^.^


I found Luke a little before Dodie, but I love them equally, and to know that Dodie was a fANGirl of Luke?!?!?!? aw


its 2018 and dodie is now the queen of uke


I searched up things to do when your sick cuz I am sick and this popped up and now I am a subscriber, 😊


I'm Ill ): so far I have drunk tea, watched tv, painted my nails and am now watching you on YouTube (: xxx


I watched this again today because I've been ill all weekend ^_^
Idoloveyouverymuch


I got a ukelele today. Determined to learn how to play this.


I happened to stumble on this old Dodie video the day I’m ill!!!


gahhh love thissss songg <3 makes me feel happy and kinda forget about my poopy chicken pox:)


I thought Dodie came out of the womb playing a ukulele...wow


blue -LIKE THE UKELELE!! ahh simple things :P love it Dodie <3


You, english boys and girls on youtube make me think that all englishmen can play ukulele! (I didn't even know what it is earlier.)


okay but when she says get well soon she reminds me so much of Rose Tyler


I acctualy love u so much 😂😂<br>Look at ur ukulele playing now!

I acctualy love u so much 😂😂
Look at ur ukulele playing now!


I have a ukulele too! Aren't they awesome? But you just have to keep playing until your fingers build up callouses. My did fairly quickly, but that's because I play violin and guitar, too!


i'll probably watch this next time i'm ill


I am watching this and I'm really ill now and it made me really happy


@daverave1997 I LOVE NORTHERN IRELAND :'D If I am ever well known on the internet I'm totally coming over there, haha ;'D
thank you :D <3


I'm ill! Just ordered a ukelele as well :)


Somebody asked for chords but I can't reply to them sooooo it's C Am F G

Emily Peplow D-DU-UDU (its repeated twice on each chord I believe) :)

Those are the only 4 chords I can play on ukulele 😂 I'll be playing this forever


"Get some of that homework done!... No, I'm kidding"


I actually am ill and thank you XD I love this!


This actually made me do my homework?

I don't know how or why, but it did.


she sounds like Carrie hope fletcher when she speaks at the end AW


I covered this yesterday but I made it really mean oh god


oh my god your tv is masive!!! your so pretty Dodie!! x


youtube somehow recommended this to me while i am sick

it knows


NEW FAVORITE SONG WHEN I'M FEELING SAD AW


I'm ill right now this is the song for me


Because of this video I did not get my homework done and now I failed :'( ... haha i am joking, I love you so much!!!!!! <3


“ get some more homework done ... just kidding”😂😂😂 same .


Well done.  You could go far with this talent thing.  Feel better yet?


"Get some homework done!"

I'm trying to write a short story but here I am!


Omg this is the ukulele I have and mine is my first ukulele


She said Doobledoo  like the green brothers <3


@awkwardcurlytop Ahh, thank you so much! :D Hopefully I will meet you another time :] wish your Grandad a very happy birthday from me! :D <3


Pitty nothing intesting like a gathering happens in Northern Ireland....the rest of the UK and the world forget about us :(  Song was epic though


I know what you mean! My fingers are so cut up! I've had my ukulele for about 2 weeks and still haven't figured it out. I just rotate between my first 2 fingers


What strumming patter do you use? I’m learning this song on the ukulele but I just can’t find the right strumming pattern.


Iam so ill right now and I really try to enjoy this because I didn't have to go to my classes this week but I have to study for my exams next week and this is definately no fun. :(


The description is so fucking adorable oml


@TwitchySirenixie That sounds so gross, aha :'D
It'll take me a long time before I am as talented as you! :]
Get well soon, and thank you so much for the advice! :D <3


HaHa I'm ill now:| Thankyouuuu for making me feel better:}x


Omg I’m actually sick and this is the first time I’ve watched this.


@jasminegellatly Thank you! I got it from primark! ^_^ <3


what the hell am I watching?? it's wonderful! ^-^


you just told us on a livestream to go watch this (november 2018) so here i am


you should do a "challenge doddie" instead of "challenge Charlie" would be fun!!!!!!!!


Dodie, with the bleeding finger. You have to keep putting up with it until your fingers get used to it and build more finger tissue. Like muscles..... BUt for the tip of your finger


OMG SHES SOOOO SWEET N YOUNG HERE THATS CRAZY


0:19 At first I thought she was calling us fat, and then i realized that when you are sick you can't run very far. Im smart (:


are you using the bird beak strumming technique, that is what it look like


YOU! will go far my (kinda sorta internet I hope in the future we can be so) friend!


i love how u used to do Northampton gatherings before i knew who you were fml now ur a busy bee with a whole bloody social media EMPIRE below you


you can also play minecraft while listening to doddleoddle's songs. (:


I have shared the video! Do you love me now? :3


u need a pick to play without bloody fingers :D


Omg so I’m here in 2019 and I’m getting so pissed because Dodie did a Northampton gathering. I LIVE THERE WHY DID I NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS NOO


hey, wondering what your ukulele is? wanna buy one :P


Anyone know the strumming pattern I know the notes but I can't figure out the strum


O_O, chances i found this video, im feeling  ill today :L dodged it all winter, til' now


I JUST DISCOVERED THE CLOSED CAPTIONS I AM CRYING


@geraldineflump Aw! Wish him better ^_^ <3


OH MY GOD I GOT BLOODY FINGERS ALL THE TIME


What are the cords to this song I must learn it xxxx


i think you need to talk to doddleoddle for some pro tips 😉💛


@drDreiser I honestly can't play ukulele :'''] I can only play like, 6 chords :'D <3


Hey here's an idea for a new video- make charlieissocoollike's charlie-shake!!!!! That would be awesome for like a vlog video or something!


Use a feltrum - much safer for the ol' fingers ;)


@JulieMint That's a good idea! :'D haha, thankyou :'D <3


oh and *cough cough* you met me too - I think that was definitely your highlight of the day :P


i don't know why but for some reason the way you talk is so similar as the way charlieissocoollike talks


Is it wrong I compared you to charlieiscoollike? You share a lot of his mannerisms. Loved the song though, extremely good. Can we have chords? Pleeeease...


12 ppl accidentally pushed the dislike button


I'm surprised that she didn't add in the fact that you might want to take some aspirin or advil... not a promo...


OMG YAY! Dodie You Are Brilliant... 1st :P


@IzzieBeatlesAddict YAY! :D make sure you come find meeeeee and we'll chat and stuff <3


@imcalledmee You are my friend! ;D HOW ARE YA DOIN' <3<3


@ThePatrickWorld NOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo :'''[ </3 oh well, see you another tiiiime <3


Tasha Collier my first uke was £20 so yeah. i find its better to use a cheap uke first so you can find if you really want to learn

I got my first ukulele for £15 actually, and it was actually amazingly good. But more expensive ones are probably better quality 😂

@natasha collier Yeah. I got my first ukulele for around $60, which is roughly equivalent to £41.


or if you use your fingers relax and don't slam
