This month's Live Lesson: "Say You Love Me" by Fleetwood Mac

If you've been following my social media, then you've seen me posting a lot of Fleetwood Mac lately.  I've recently discovered Christine McVie as a songwriter, and I think "Say You Love Me" is a particularly uke-friendly song.  Watch tonight's 5@5 for a preview of my arrangement for this song (it was the first song of the set).  This song offers rhythm challenges for all levels - we have a cool rhythmic motif throughout the song, and intermediate/advanced can have fun with the solo break!

We'll warm up with a review of "I See the Light" from last month's Disney lesson.  I've seen so many of you sharing your videos for this song, thank you!  You're always welcome to post your versions of the song that I teach (and if folks ask where you learned the song, please invite them to join our Patreon community!).  The Patron facebook group and other facebook groups are supportive places to share videos.  See this month's newsletter for details on how to join.

A note about our monthly Live Lessons

My goal is to teach and arrange a lesson that is interesting for all levels. I will walk through the lesson by starting with beginner-level strumming, and gradually layer on more challenging options for advanced players.

I encourage you to play at your level, and embrace your own pace of incrementally leveling up. You can re-watch the lesson as many times as you like. Grasp the basics on the first go-round, and each time you review, you'll pick up new tips and techniques. You can use this method to become a better student and better learner - by building more awareness and more patience. :)

I am SO EXCITED to learn this song!!!!

Andra Martinescu

Dear Cynthia, would be possible for future sessions to have them at another time? For ex. here in Switzerland it will be 1:30 in the night when this live session will take place. Thank you so much! ❤️🙏 Andra

Jenny Selig

Hi, Andra! I'm guessing that would be hard. Cynthia is in Hawaii, which I believe is a 12 hour time difference from Switzerland. Sorry the time doesn't work well for where you live.

Andra Martinescu

Hi Jenny, many thanks for your message! I didn‘t know she‘s in Hawaii ❤️ The perfect place for playing ukulele :) Wish you a lovely day! Andra

Kimberly Myers

Hi Cynthia, this was my first live lesson and I was actually able to mostly follow along! Thanks so much for this arrangement. The motif captures the original song well!

If anyone has guidance on the moving bass line version of the chorus (i.e., what the chords are), I would love to hear it!
