I am NOT Throwin’ Away My Shot – Covid Vaccine (ukulele)

I wondered what Lin-Manuel meant when he wrote this song. Turns out, it was for THIS moment.

While my colleagues are working hard delivering vaccine doses to healthcare workers as fast as we can (15,000 doses given in the last 5 days! Woo!), I’m hard at work at the Ukulele Parody Studios.

Here it is: the world premiere of a song that seems titled for this moment in time: I am not throwin’ away MY SHOT.

Thanks to Lin-Manuel Miranda for the original, and the overall miracle of the Hamilton musical. No thanks to him, on how hard this song is to sing.

Happy holidays, y’all.

  1. WOW! I can’t imagine how hard that was to compose and do. Brilliant. Hope it goes viral. Call me when there’s a shot for me. I’m just turning 74 🙁
