"While My Ukulele Gently Weeps"

I think this take on Harrison's classic does a better job "tether[ing] into the tensions between plagiarism, channeling, and tribute" than Harrogate's earlier Phish post. At the very least, it shows a more serious attempt to revise the original Beatles version. In so doing, Jake Shimabukuro proclaims to the world,

I do not plagiarize!! This is no second-rate cover!!

And what better way to channel an artist than to collaborate with his or her composition, as Shimabukuro does here. This is tribute. To cover a song poorly is not.
