  • thank you bj

  • Wow 

  • Comment removed

  • War BJ

  • He died and became the heart of Hawaii.

  • the smartest people on earth are those whom can answer any question which poses a non pre determined answer.

  • what does E ala E actually mean?

  • @TheIgraenne it means "wake up" or "rise up". google it. there's a better answer on yahoo answers but youtube won't let me past it here.

  • @time2get2c okay thanks =)

  • @TheIgraenne It basically means "a call to rise up." E usually means to call for attention while ala has different meanings including 'to rise.' I'm part indigenous Hawai'ian so I'm not fluent but I know some of the language and my Grandmother a Kapuna, and full-blooded Hawai'ian knows most of it.

  • so simple, this helps me to look forward.

  • Perfect...

  • shakira loca SHOULD NOT BE top recommended video! SELL OUTS

  • @Livenderrr i lold

  • @Livenderrr he wasn't fat he needed room for his big heart

  • absolutelly perfet...

  • Before listening to IZ's music today, I had never thought about Hawai'i needing any form of independence or restoration to preserve their Heritage. I am very moved by his music and some of your sincere comments...I see how important this is.

    Sometimes I feel very ashamed to be white.

  • i will now download all of IZ's music =)

  • he wasn´t fat , he was just full of talent......

  • He wasnt fat and he did not just put any big heart in that place he put a huge extreme golden heart!!

  • what a great soul and that wonderful voice. Gratefully

  • R.I.P Isreal Kamakawiwo. "The Prodigy" BJ Penn uses this as his walkout song.

  • UN ARTISTA CON LA A MAIUSCOLA! GRANDE IZ

  • he wasent fat he needed mutch place for his big heart

  • @ebrtyler All you did was copy the other persons comment and then miss spell it horrible...

  • The people who enjoy to be sheeps, slaves,domesticated or "civilized" will think that it's a shit song. The people (dictators and others control freaks), who like to control others humans and nature will also hate this song. I'm a white man, but that doesn't matter because to want to be free is a natural human right.

  • what a beautiful voice what a beautiful MAN & ♥ i wont defend him hes already blessed. lots of NASTY words you have the right.to say and feel how you do but you only RECIEVE what you GIVE theres been many versions of this song ive have them and love them all for the most but it ~IZ'S~ that really touches my ♥ I wish the commercials would have a lil footnote of the person persons singing in them

  • ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO CALL HIM FAT DONT KNOW MUSIC LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE DO THIS SONG BRINGS YOUR SOUL TO SHAKE

  • @askinglings Please explain. What does weight have anything to do with music.

  • Look u tossers, so he's overweight and so fucking what????, he still sings amazing songs, talentless fuckers, so just pack ur hatin and steam ram it up ur arses dopey cunts, don't like it? then fuck off and stay off as simple as that, hatin' muggie little cunts........ go on bruv carry on singing and fuck the odds........Bless......

  • @Orylsan hahahah your funny. I agree with what I understand. I love it, British slang and gangster all rolled into one. hahahah. You sound really tough. hahahaha.

  • E Ala'hu Akbar!

  • can not listen to this ever and not cry ,,, amazing song amazing singer

  • HHHHMMMMMM!!! MCDONALD´S!!! YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY...

  • Amazing man, wish I could have met him in my lifetime! Awesome voice!

  • Amazing man and musician. And why would someone use this forum for a statement about the Middle East? Because his name is "Israel"? You wankers love to complain anonymously because then you can't get criticized for your stupid opinions. For every criticism of Israel, there's always one for the Palestinians but you idiots like to get your one-liners in and skedaddle. Just listen to the music and shut up!

  • Good music, great musician!

  • What people don't realize is that he has a disease that causes him to be overweight

  • This is not history class!

    Shutup and enj0:00y the music!

  • just fuck off back under your stone BlackRoof, this is a video about music not a stage for your hate.

  • He never seemed to realize what his habitual eating as doing to him... if only he recognized it he could still be here with us alll.... but some people just won't listen.... its just toobad no one loved him to hit him with the hard truth

  • He was a great man with an even greater hear. How can everyone disrespect him just because of his size? Especially now that he is no longer here on earth with us, it takes a lot of courage to st behind your keyboard and disrespect a great man like IZ.

  • @TehCloudxD Heart* I didn't take notice of my spelling errors

  • To all those who disrespect Bruddah IZ for his size: You jus' jealous 'cause you no got th' beautiful voice like he did.

  • What an amazing singer. I get chills down my spine listening to his music. That never happened to me before. I guess God needed a newsinger in heaven and had chosen IZ.

  • He sings with the heart MY RESPECT FOR YOU IZ!

  • best singer ever

  • You know what ? I'm really not a fan of music... But that voice !!! I would love to buy his CDs. Are they still on sale ?

  • @kkkamikkk Hahaha you are not a fan of music?? i didnt know such people existed.. you have GOT to be either republican or communist...?

  • @kkkamikkk Some of his CD's can be found still, try Amazon.com. If you also look for the Makaha Sons Of Ni'ihau, he and his brother helped create that group. They also had a lot of CD's. They were popular in the 70's and early 80's. They broke up in 1993, last album together was Ho'oluana. IZ went solo, try searching for IZ, and the other 3 still retained the name the Makaha Sons. So if you want early albums with IZ, look for Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau.

  • ABSOLUTE...

  • Now here is someone who belongs on my wall of legends.

  • un uomo che merita tutto il rispetto di questo mondo! grande IZ! una voce che era piu di una bellissima voce!

  • i don't know about you lipidaphobics. but his roundness just makes him that much more likable <3

  • him and Jeff Buckley are up in heaven singing duets together. lol

  • IZ was a great musician and uke player - he is often thought of as the islands favorite son - thanks IZ for all the memories

  • fuck jack's cereal; (wink)

  • @cleopatra1962-- is that all that matters to you: if someone looks healthy or not? That's why this country sucks. We're people, not chattel! Everyone, idealize him, his heart and song is more beautiful than those we're accustomed to. Men like him make living beautiful.

  • RIP

    Bad people are alive and this man, who has a big heart, is dead. Where is the justice??

    Why?! Why?!

  • R.I.P Kamakawiwo

    

  • @qsalame

    wait... so he died?

  • 32 people don't know an amazing song when heard nore do they have a heart

  • Iz was married to my cousin RIP

  • Iz was married to my cousin

  • in my bruce buffer voice) The Prodigyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy B J Pennnnnnnnnn

  • Iz speaks for beauty and justice. He moves us if we're willing to look at the whole world, both beautiful and not.

  • @BlackRoof Israel is a friend of the US. Im sick if terrorists like you trying to brainwash the rest of the world.

  • @utahboy86 The truth is, as a British citizen, I am DISGUSTED by the CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY which Israel commits in the name of Judaism.

    While Hitler is dead for morte than 65 years, ISRAEL MIMICKS HITLER in its treatment of the Palestinian people.

    Stealing land, hijacking resources, murdering and oppressing the IMPOVERISHED PALESTINIANS some JEWS boast of being "a little bit facist!"

    Palestinians need an Israeli permit to go on to their OWN LAND!

    More info?

    (click my screen name)

  • @BlackRoof Remember whos land (israel) it was at first. Abraham > Isaac > Jacob > Joseph >Ephraim >Moses > Joshua > David > so forth. Even Muhammad was a jew. I am not a Jew, but they have suffered much more than the Palestinians. Last time I checked, it wasn't Jews that bombed the world trade center, but Muslims. Even if you claim that they were Radicals, why does rest of the muslim world cheer? You love to hate. God forgive you!

  • @utahboy86 And just what the h-e-double-toothpicks does Judaism, Islam, Israel or Palestine have to do with Bruddah Iz's MUSIC? ........but since you brought it up -- what Israel is doing to the Palestinians today is exactly the same as what the Nazis did to Jews before/during World War 2. Last time I checked, it was Standard Procedure for the Israeli Military to destroy an ENTIRE Palestinian neighborhood just to kill one suspect.

  • @utahboy86 Israel kills FAR MORE people than the, so called, "terrorists".

    1400 when bombing a SINGLE town centre AFTER TELLING PEOPLE TO GO THERE FOR SAFETY!!!

    AT LEAST 600 OF THOSE WERE WOMEN AND CHILDREN - and how many of the men were "terrorists"?

    50?

    1350 dead for LESS than 50 untried ALLEGED "terrorists".

    Does Israel want peace? NO!

    Netanyahu is caught ON FILM boasting about controlling American opinion.

    See it on my channel.

  • @BlackRoof dude seriously get the fuck out of here. theres a time and a place to discuss the bullshit in politics but this video isn't the place for it. you have valid arguements but no one wants to hear this shit. we come here to listen to a beautiful song by an amazing a pure hearted man. not to listen to a cynical asshole rant and bitch about life. life sucks, deal with it. thats why people need to have a safe haven like this mans music to take our mind off it from time to time. gtfo

  • @guitaring4fun Thank You!!! I'm so tired of seeing people spam beautiful songs like this one. I don't understand why we can't just enjoy the music and not have to deal with people being stupid like half the people on youtube. Thank you you are awesome.

  • @moonlitgirl14 haha muchos gracias, i just want the world to fuckin learn to fix our shit but enjoy life. im tired of people just like placing shit in the hands of god to fix it. i mean religion has its place but at that point people are wasting they're capacity to solve they're problems themself you know?

    this worlds fucked up and i wish i had this israel kamakawiwo'ole guy to jsut give me a big hug you know? hahahahaha

  • @utahboy86 Oh, and by the way, Israel's only claim to Israel is that Yahweh "promised" it to them 3500 years ago.

    However, he promised to GIVE it to them, not that they would have to tear it from the hands of another nation, piece by illegitimate piece.

    Israel is a country IN EXILE!!!

    ...And how about we fight ALL the ancient wars?

    IT WOULD BE A BLOOD BATH

    Israel's ONLY STRENGTH is its influence over America. Netanyahu is caught boasting about it on FILM.

    Watch it on my channel.

  • I don't mean to make fun of anyone but under the suggest videos there is an "ab workout by flex belt"...

  • Free Hawaii from American tyranny! Long Live The Kingdom of Hawaii !!!!

  • @quietjedi1010101 OK tyranny......... Wheres the GAY button?????

  • @quietjedi1010101 really.......have you done your research on how it became a state

  • @mwjayjr It was by military intervention.

  • @quietjedi1010101 Originally yes, BUT, they started applying for statehood starting in the late 1800's (I believe that was when it started) and they voted on it finally and it was 17 to 1 to become a state. Their choice, they weren't forced. They were basically Pureto Rico(I probably spelled that wrong) except they don't want to be a state. Both self governed and decided to be a state or not

  • @mwjayjr Just an FYI we invaded after some shifty and crafty work done by some fruit company (I forget which) in 1893, and basically when the United States military invades, and topples your government and gives you two options: being a territory with now rights, or a state with rights, you usually go for the latter option.

  • @MajorJakobs Actually the President ordered the temporary government to return control to the Hawaiian people. They refused the order.

  • @mwjayjr read history we invaded a sovereign nation because money was exchanged between Dole company and the president .

  • @MajorJakobs  it was Dole company

  • @quietjedi1010101 get bent

  • @quietjedi1010101 lol please go kill yourself do the world a favor along with all the other people who liked your comment

  • @Scr3amxAimxFire Why don't yo go do it first and let me know how it turns out. I'm too busy do'in your mom.

  • @quietjedi1010101 you dont even understand what a tyranny is "when one person hold's absolute power" lol United States is not a tyranny, not one person makes up new laws like you might think maybe you should look into it
