A true new year song and, once I was at it, some more "classical" stuff

Something I have on my list for long, posted for a sad reason. A tribute to Austrian singer Udo Jürgens (in German, for a change)

Here comes a special request from a young Scotsman. He has great plans with this one:
- Farewell to Stromness (Ukulele. Low G)
December 12, 2014
Christmas countdown running. Received some wishlists and am happy to deliver a few requests before the annual year-end stress becomes too much
- For the Longest Time (Ukulele)
... and please note that little green rectangle on the bottom of every page ...
Not a request, but I felt I neglected the guitar section a little bit recently. Here is a fine George Michael tune. Far better then "Last Christmas" (ok, that one is not hard to beat):

Today, December 08, is a sad day. John Lennon was killed 34 years ago. The first rockstar death that really touched me emotionally. Here are some of his phantastic and outstanding works.
- Norwegian Wood / You’ve got to hide your love away (Ukulele)
November 28, 2014
Two new songs that have a lot in common: Both written by blondes and both in the key of F.
- Eine kleine Nachtmusik (Ukulele)

Found two little mistakes in the fingering of Tico Tico. Not severe, but easier to play now. Updated Tab is online. Sorry.

Here are some light-hearted easy up-tempo tunes to fight November depression:
- Sailor's Hornpipe (Ukulele, Low G)
- Pippi Langstrumpf Theme (Ukulele)

Christmas approaching unexpectedly as every year. High time to get prepared.
Unfortunately, here in Germany, christmas songs have to be hymnic and solemn. I think the repertoire hasn’t been updated in the last 200 years. Gets boring sometimes. So here are two of my favorites:
- Merry Xmas Evrybody (Ukulele)
And some miscellaneous easy songs:
- La Rotta (same thing, for Guitar)
- Die Gedanken sind frei (Ukulele)

Rainy and dark November evenings. No football on TV. Perfect for some tab-writing. Brought to paper some more of those half-ready tunes:
- Scarborough Fair (Ukulele, Low G)
- Never Going back Again (Ukulele, Low G)
- Right Here Waiting (Ukulele)
- Englishman in New York (Guitar)

One week off with my family and my uke in the countryside. Lots of spare time I used to do the „Italian Job“. I wrote down some really wonderful tunes from Bella Italia. Beautiful cities, wonderful food, breathtaking landscapes, phantastic ukulele strings. If only their football was better. Here are
I also took with me some uncompleted scribbles which I started long ago, but put aside for various reasons (got stuck, lack of time, lack of ideas, etc.). Got some of them finalized:

Hey, I finally found a way to work around the layout restrictions of my tabbing software. Maybe I will rework and replace some of the old tab sheets .
And added three new songs:
- Puttin on the Ritz (Guitar)
- Groovy Kind of Love (Ukulele)
- Tico Tico (Ukulele - my new favorite)

Received a number of very encouraging comments via e-mail, and also a number of ideas for improvement. Thanks for both.
