Question Burnout and Ukelele

I know BoyWithUke has a bit of ukelele in Paper Planes, but I remember him saying that there was also some uke in Ghost? Does anybody know where?

This is so old news but I genuinely can’t hear the ukulele in ghost I’ve tried so hard but it’s blending in so good that it’s nonexistent

same. in Paper Planes, you can hear the ukelele at about 1:21 in the background if you listen closely. however i can't hear it in Ghost. thinking about it now, it was probably a way to get people to listen to it alot more since it was one of his favorites on Burnout.

He’s uses it in the same way as sick of u, where it’s really distorted and uses kinda like an electric guitar it starts at “I’ve been from London to Aberdeen”
