Wait, Wait...

Live from Honolulu.  On this week’s ‘Not My Job’ segment of the NPR quiz show Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me!, the guest contestant is ukulele virtuoso Taimane.  Her conversation with host Peter Segal is charming about her love for the musical instrument since childhood, starting busking at age 7 with her father.  And today performs classical music, metal music and even covers of popular songs.  (Some of which she demonstrates here wonderfully.)


 


This is the full Wait, Wait… broadcast, but you can jump directly to the “Not My Job” segment, it starts a bit after the 20:45 mark. 



As a bonus, here’s a video of Taimane performing and singing with guitarist Ramiro Marziani a medley of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony, “Aerials” by System of a Down, “Kashmir” by Led Zeppelin, and “Thunderstruck” by AC/DC.
