La Vie en Rose - Ukulele 

I'm in love with you. I play your song for my son every night before bed. he's a 3yr old autistic spectrum ball of joy. it calms him right down and gets him ready for sleep. you are amazing.

Hello, I just wanted to say that I've spent an hour listening to different versions of La vie en rose, and I just can't stop repeating yours, because I can get all of the emotion of it, and it's really an amazing version. Congrats! Obs:I've never commented anything before, but this song I had to...

This makes me smile. Sounds like something played out of a record player coming out of an open balcony window.

What a nice timbre to your voice! A rare type of sound nowadays and that control is quite impeccable. Very very nicely done!

The words "hauntingly beautiful" comes to mind!

This is still my favorite rendition of this song hands down. Wishing I could hear it on a record. I swear it would be perfect.

this is so cute... not what i expected.. but it still makes me smile... thank you, random internet singer, you made my day. wish you all the best. xD

Hold me close and hold me fast The magic spell you cast This is la vie en rose When you kiss me heaven sighs And tho I close my eyes I see la vie en rose When you press me to your heart I'm in a world apart A world where roses bloom And when you speak...angels sing from above Everyday words seem...to turn into love songs Give your heart and soul to me And life will always be La vie en rose

Wait.... Is this the girl from BuzzFeed??

Put Rainy Mood to the backround and get ready for tears... Heartbreakingly beautiful :,(

Eight years later, this is still my favorite version of the song. I wish you would put your version on Spotify!

It reminded me of How I met your mother 😢

Beautiful, beautiful!!! Glad you did both the English and French versions!

Hi, I just have to say that lately, before going to sleep I listen to you while lying on the bed, lights and eyes closed and I can't stop myself from smiling. With this cover I go to sleep in a bed made of peace and love (Thats how I feel). Thank you : )

I am canadian and my grandma was French and she would sing this song to everyday and now I sing it to my girlfriend and family this video was amazing and reminded me of my grandma and your voice is beautiful

I'm just learning the ukulele and realized from your video that no matter how well I learn to play, I will never be able to sing so beautifully. Your voice is lovely and I adore the vintage style.

This is the first time i ever felt the French language was "romantic" like everybody says.... 😍

It's no secret why this video has almost 1.5 million views. Beautiful. 😙 Pure and simple.

Beautiful, i love this song in both English and French and you nailed both... Amazing.

had my heart broken recently, and I've been keeping busy and overeating at night to keep myself from feeling it. I decided to stop eating my feelings last night and mulled a bit, which is healthy to process so that you can deal with it and learn from it and heal and move on. I've been watching HIMYM for the second time. And I forgot what this episode was like, and how moving it was. And is. I cried for the first time since having my heart suddenly broken (again). I really needed it, but had been unable to. Maybe I was just tired of feeling tired and sad hah. So I procrastinated grieving. But anyway, I was wanting to rewatch that clip again on youtube, when I found this version, and this is an absolutely fantastic rendition. There's something strange about how beautiful love songs feel ... when you're feeling heart broken. I've been trying to place exactly what it is ... and I think I just realized why. When you're in a relationship, you don't have to fall in love. I don't think you can choose to fall in love. But. I think you can choose to hold your heart to prevent yourself from falling in love. I think when we've had a lot of trouble finding love, (or a lot of trouble being loved in return by those we love) it's tempting to stop letting our heart venture out on expeditions across these great Oceans of Social Gatherings searching for the gold of love in some marvelous New World, a New Person, a New Love I think when you dispair over love .... you lose hope and you stop letting your heart hope and you stop falling in love. You'll get a flicker of a moment where you think maybe I can trust this person maybe I can fall in love with this person maybe it will work this time. And in this moment.... I think you have exactly two options: (1) let go and let your heart boat sail, hoping for steady seas or (2) pull down the sails, tie the boat down in the harbor, and stay on shore where it is safe. Some boats will sink. Due to luck or inexperienced sailor hearts maybe many boats will sink. *But there's always a chance.* If you leave your boat in the harbor tie-ing down your heart, shackling it where it's safe it won't sink, you won't suffer heart break ... but without that venture you'll never make it to the new world. There is zero chance in the harbor. You venture nothing and gain nothing. The safe, but normal, rose-less tinted life. I think .... what I just realized is this: When my heart has sunk too many times on too many seas that were smooth at first but then became unpredictably stormy due to bad luck, bad manners, or maybe just the cruel musings of Poseidon, ... it loses its tenacity, it's drive, .......my sense of adventure. Of hope. Covered with a tarp in the harbor I sometimes forget it's even there, docked and hidden away. ..... but when I hear a love song like this, it hurts. Sometimes unrealistically, unlogically, I will actually believe for a moment: "I will never have the life I always wanted, the life in rose" But then I realize it's my heart that hurts. The melodies and words form winds that whisper and tug gently at the edges of the tarp covering the remains of my wrecked and timid ship. My heart. The most important part of my sensory experience. The beacon that searches out in the night for the most important person I will ever love, I will someday share my life with, a wife. When your heart (metaphorically) beats and you feel the emotion, projected onto your chest if you're in love with someone, if it's beating for someone if you're feeling the emotion of love, not in your head, not in your intentions, not in your mind, not in your imagination, but projected onto your chest, then it is the most wonderful and most meaningful experience that I know of that a human being can possibly have. But when your heart (metaphorically) beats and you feel the emotion, projected onto your chest if you're not in love with someone, if your heart has been borken by someone if you feel heartache, projected onto your chest it's not the worst sensation. it's not the most painful sensation. it's even bitter-sweet, from the memories of the love that lead to that moment of the beautiful seas and dolphins, mermaids and coral waves before the storm broke the smooth seas and crashed your ship to pieces and broke your heart. It's not the worst sensation. But, perhaps selfishly, it is the most deeply sad. So sad, that sometimes we eat our feelings and ignore our heart and fail to process our emotions post-heart/break and don't piece our boat back together. and don't look forwarard to the next venture. and don't believe we will ever have the life of rose. and we neglect our heart and leave the shipwreck under a tarp forgotten, broken but safe. It's in these moments where you hear a song like this and your heart beats for the first time in an eternity and at first it's painful. I tried to think of a metaphor for it, but can't. At first it's painful, and your first reaction may be "I don't like this, I don't want to feel this" but if you stick through it, and process the grief and let your heart beat through the heart ache it's secretly rallying for you! it's secretly rooting for you!! it's secretly repairing for you a beautiful new ship beneath that tarp. When you're moved by a song like this and your heart has been broken and you've maybe given up hope of finding your Happyily Ever After and the song becomes a wind and the waves lap at your heart after your emotional heart pumps out the toxins of your last ship wreck your ship may need more time to heal you may need sturdier materials you may need a better understanding of reading the waves you may need to head towards a different continent this time But when a song like this tugs at your heart strings ... it's only painful because it reminds you you still have a heart. Falling in love is never scary. Falling out of love, or not being loved is scary. But each time, each new person, each time we learn a little more about the world, about ourselves, about the person we've been searching for all along but never really knew it.... every venture is a new day, a new possibility, a new adventure To anyone that ever reads this, hearts can never break permanently. But depending on the torment or tragedy or neglect they can require a lot of TLC to repair and rebuild. But they can always repair and rebuild. You just need to be patient and nurturing to yourself and to your heart. To anyone who ever reads this: have a fantastic day, appreciate the little things have a fantastic life appreciate everything beautiful appreciate every moment and never give up on finding True Love. I have the best wishes for you. I know it will happen. You can do it! Just follow the winds of your heart (because somewhere, someone is following the winds across the ocean searching for someone just like you too!!!)

OK, ok, I'll give my heart and soul to you just keep singing. Really nice rendition :)

The nostalgia of RU-vid recommending your video after 10 years. Brings back many great memories. Thank you for this amazing video! Edit: I just noticed that I have the same ukulele as you. 😱

Yellow umbrella FTW

Can't help but smile after watching this , thank you

Wow!, it's sooo easy to fall in love with this cover. The most beautiful voice I've ever, EVER heard. So gifted. Keep it up!.

Listening to it again and again, just cannot get enough of it. Thank you for the amazing video, I love it.

I just love it! You're amazing and your french is adorable. One thing though.... *you've never seen How I Met Your Mother?* (One of the biggest fans over here!) I highly recommend you to watch every single episode of How I met Your Mother.

You have a stunning voice. Absolutely beautiful.

I heard it from the other room across the room cuz my cousin and her sister were singing and I fell in love with it and looked it up and played it 200 times 😂 then I was in bed watching how I met your mother and it came on 👍

I don't usually download cover songs, but you changed that. You have such a beautiful voice and talent. This song is definately on replay in my phone.

i love your voice, OMG!!!! so beautiful, the best cover of this song 😍

Incredibly soothing! So well played and well sung. My most favourite version yet! Thank you for sharing!

You are so lucky to have an attractive singing face. Whenever I sing, my nostrils flare and I look kind of funny haha. Beautiful smile too! *thumbs up* great job!

Can't get enough - my favourite version of this song!

that was the first time that i saw someone singing this song in a ukulele version and: i loved so much! you're a very good singer, and i'm in love for your version of la vie en rose!

I found this cover YEARS ago and I still listen to it. After Louis Armstrong's, this is my favorite cover of this song. You're amazing!!

The best cover for La Vie en Rose! Impeccable

The most beautiful thing I have ever heard

Your voice is absolutely beautiful, this is hands down my favorite cover of this song.

Pure perfection. Your voice is amazing and the performance was flawless!!!!!

This is the best cover I've heard of La vie en rose on the ukulele

Beautiful and so well done my favorite song of all time

Your unpretentious and relaxed performance is as much of a pleasure as your sweet voice

...This is absolutely beautiful :) Brings tears to my eyes and a warmth to my soul

I would love to see you play "Moon River" from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" Some people don't realize the connection between this song/scene from "How I met your Mother" and the final scene in the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's" with Audrey Hepburn. But it is closely related and the songs are very similar in nature.

This cover is amazing! Makes me just want to cry! Lovely performance! Almost... delicate. I need this on my playlist!

Beauty + A beautiful voice = Cyclone Beauty + A beautiful voice + Ukulele = Tsunami

Whoa... what a nice surprise to stumble upon. I just ordered a ukulele today and was checking out folks playing them and found yours... and when you started to sing it just punched me right in the emotion box, bam! fantastic!

Well DAMN. This is too perfect it made me tear up!

What a wonderful voice

I think Ukulele is better than other instruments to cover this song...

That was abosuletly beautiful and my favorite rendition of this beautiful song major respect 👍

I first heard this cover when I was in middle school listening off of the RU-vid app off of my Nintendo 3DS. Even though many many covers of this song have been made ever since, I always come back to this one. It takes a lot of scrolling to find this video these days, but it’s always worth it. It always brings me back to those days in 8th grade before I really had any responsibilities and wasn’t so burdened with life. Thank you for the wonderful cover :)

your french is impeccable! absolutely stunning

Those feels. Feels that just rush up out of nowhere. Power of music =]

YOU DESERVE SUCH A LARGER AUDIENCE. LOVE this rendition(: keep doing you!

muchas gracias nunca antes una canción así me había producido sentimientos de felicidad, esperanza, amor y ahora tristeza y melancolía, gracias por esta maravillosa interpretación

By far the best version of this beautiful song I've ever heard. Your voice was made for this song.If you're ever on tour in the UK hope you'll be playing Liverpool.

This was so beautiful i need punsh a wall to get my masculinity back....

You have a beautiful voice, Caitlin, and you have done very well in this video. Thank you.

This is so beautiful I have played this more than a thousand times omg

YEAH YEAH YEAH... Fantastic voice n' great ukulele game !!! Thanks for this moment.

Wonderful I am from Bangladesh and do not understand a single word of french. But was overwhelmed at every second of the video. I watched it for at least 20 times continuously after the first time. And I'll have to mention those loving looks you gave at us. Those were amazing and so full of love. Thank you for the song

Such a lovely voice, it relaxes me.'

Your voice gives the feeling that everything will be okay

this is just relaxing to the soul! love love love!

The most beautiful thing I have ever heard

Damn. Love the vocals. Love the swing part in the middle.

Oh girl, La Vie En Rose is my favourite song ever, I was trying to get the guitar tabs then came across this video. You're amazing! And now I want to buy an ukulele! hahaha xx

I just cannot believe how beautifully you've sung this song. Literally made me feel like I didn't live on earth, so thanks.

Beautiful. I play it at less ones a week it reminds me of pass loves and lost hopes

That was so beautiful. Merci Beaucoup. Quand vous avez chanté en Français il a fait mon cœur fondre. (for those who cannot speak French I said that when she sang in French it made my heart melt). Comment savez-vous que Français? Avez-vous appris à l'école?

What a beautiful rendition. Bravo!

Goose bumps! Omg. You're amazing

Caitlin, your version of La vie en rose is just beautiful. My wife and I looked at each other and said aout loud "It kicks the HIMYM version's ass in every way". Thank you for this, it made my day.
