I believe the title of the song is "Men who ride mountains" not Island Style. :P

[kaneohetowngurl]

true hawaiian <3

[HAOLEBUDDAH]

for the handful of local boys serving our country overseas, we don't care how many times we have to hear it,, homesick as hell and need some real grinds,, makes me miss my ohana even more. we spend our offtime on our laptops with all the hawaiian tunes,, thanks pipeline2paradise and youtube for this music outlet,, mahalo brah,,

[johopina]

more than a handful :) I'm so proud of all our island men and women who have served.

[Tobylifehater]

Slack key aint Jahwaiian, dumbass. John Cruz isn't even similar to Jahwaiian at all.

[ryhsh72]

Come on Hawaiian!

[riyah75]

What can I say, it's good but typical hawaiian music. Tourist love it, buy it to remember their hawaiian vacation. However if you live there, you hear it so much of it that it begins to get monotonous to the point you want to pull your hair out. Jawaiian, a take off of Jamaican reggae is another style of music thats becoming the same way.

[masterofbaters]

so chill man

[OvertlyRevolutionary]

This brings a feeling of sadness. I miss Hawaii so much. No place in the whole world like it. And I've been almost everywhere. Great post. THANK U.

[pvtlancejohnsonAOL]
