Misc Children – Tomatensala (Ukulele)

A fun childrens song we used to sing at camp, playing off which syllable you put the emphasis in the word 'tomatensala', or tomato salad. After singing the song once you normally would change the word to some other syllable word like komkommersala or salamisala etc. Then speed up to make it more difficult. Generally every 5 syllable word with the natural emphasis on syllables 2 and 5 will work. For example In english bananasoufflé,
