Ukulele virtuoso Jake Shimabukuro released a video of himself playing the song “143 (Kelly’s Song)” off his new album “Peace Love Ukulele“. The song “143” was inspired by Jake’s years in high school when cell phones and text messaging didn’t exist. If you were one of the cool kids, you probably had something called a pager. Back in those days, there were numeric codes for pagers – and “143” was the numeric code for “I love you.”
Look for a documentary about Jake coming soon. See some footage of him playing Blue Roses Falling from the documentary.
