Hope I can go back home again someday before I die.

[FartZone42069]

this is the smoothest most chill song ever

[ShellsKailua]

For Susan Marie LaVallee 1950-2011 and to all who past earlier. Oahu, rest in His spirit of light and in the palm of His hands. By ©susanmarielavallee_2011 "I never went to heaven not that I recall, but in a dream or so it seemed, no ceiling and no wall."

[StacyLynAnderson]

I missed my home so much in Maui that I moved back home. There is no place more beautiful.

[usmcdrgn64]

Oh wow. This songs brings back many fond memories. It makes me very homesick

[uschrissy]

I want to go there so much, with someone I like, he doesn't know I do. I hope my dream comes true.............

[1234543217a]

@uschrissy Come with me???

I like so much Honolulu too!!.... :)

[choosing2lookeast]

The Carpenter's version doesn't even compare to the original. Such a beautiful song! I can't wait till the day I see those "Honolulu City Lights" for the first time. My goal is to make it over to Hawaii via cruiseship before my 55th birthday.

[masterhide]

@choosing2lookeast GO before then! :) While you're still young.

[mikemalone1989]

@choosing2lookeast Go! You wont regret it! Its so beautiful!

[jonpetry]

How can I forget a place we lived for so long or transited through on our way to Guam where we lived for almost as long. I cry every time I hear this song. Mahalo and Dankulo si zu'us malo for posting this song

[kikananihanai]

@coldfeatband. Have a great time. Breath deeply, see much. A friend of mine just spent two weeks at home on vacation and wrote eloquently on Facebook about what Hawai`i means to her. If you would like to see it, send an email address to: hawaiigrown@comcast.net

[kikananihanai]

A friend just put this on my wall. He knew it would make me homesick. I wonder if he knew how many memories it would trigger of my emotions when we first heard C&K sing it 35 years ago. Every picture that appears during the song is a scene that is etched in my memory. I am forever grateful. Me ke aloha pau`ole to everyone who holds Hawai`i in their heart.

[coldfeatband]

@kikananihanai My parents took us to Hawaii on vacation for 4 yrs in a row back in the late 70s. This song brings back some of the best memories of my childhood ... & the photos - I'm almost there & can almost smell the flowers & the sea air. It's 3 minutes & 40 seconds of Heaven...

[nanika9kai]

I love this song.Tune that has been heard many times on radio KIKI in a day.

[richartrod]

I love this song; I heard it for the first time watching the 2010 Honolulu City Lights Christmas parade online. It was on my mind when I left HNL after flying into town for the 2011 Great Aloha Run. It's hard to leave such a beautiful place. That's why it's "bringing me back again" for the Fourth of July. Lord willing, I plan to permanently move to Hawaii after I graduate from college in 2012.

[7lani3]

I wana go back to maui.



[dombradyevamaria]

I miss it even so, that I have never ever been there - but feel homesick

[MauiBoyTrav]

I miss my a'ina too and this song makes it tough. I'm about to say, F* it, leave the mainland and go surf and sit on the beach for the rest of my life.

[40klad83]

I spent 13.5 years in hawaii, on the the island of Oahu, and I'm going back for good soon.. Hawai'i my heart & soul..

[LuauMamoe]

this was my dads jam! good stuff.

[hiddeninthewoods]

this song was popular when i visited last. i cried. i wonder how many other cultures weep at the thought of leaving, feel the pull on your heart from the land.

[LarryinDFW]

I miss Hawaii so much! I've been gone like 12-13 years. Hopefully one day I will return for good.

[DOUGLAS55ish]

I am not from Hawaii but everytime I am there I feel like I am home. I was stationed in Pearl Harbor from 1974 -1976 but I did not appreciate it. I could kick myself for that attitude! I believe the Aloha spirit is inside me even though I am not a local. I am going to get back to Hawaii someday because that is where I want to spend my last days, though I want those days to be far in the future :)

[tylerdoggie]

Oh to be back in those days - miss my island, Keola & Kapono, sweet tradewinds...this brings it all back !

[joefd1111]

I live in NYC now and this song brings me back to Waipahu. Many good times 4 wheeling around Kaena Point.....I shall always hold my ohana close and dear...

[murky2]

Each time Honolulu city lights...bring me back again...bring me back again

[loveblonde83]

I saw them with my dad at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in 1975. This song brings tears to my eyes. My dad does not have much longer to live. Thanks for bringing back happier memories to me.

[75Kalani]

@loveblonde83 Your Dad will share many such memories with you. Take care.

[75Kalani]

@75Kalani I was fortunate enough to be the Sound engineer for that show and I have many wonderful memories of Kaola and Kapono Beamer.

[lovethelaughter]

I miss my home in Hawaii ~ Aloha~

[jspurnell]

It's snowing tonight, here

I miss my far away home in Hawaii.

[Jesusloveslokelani]

I miss home, I miss my mom!

[lghtsource]

Makes me so homesick to hear this ... want to go home.

[kd6odu]

@lghtsource Got that right, brah. Aloha

[donzaliko]

@lghtsource hi dude can u tell me why you moved from hawaii??

i want to move there so can you tell me how the city is?

[SecretAsianMan1000]

Thank you for bringing back some fond memories of my high school days. Tissue please.

[ikaikajedi]

I cry everytime I hear it, or sing it! This is the Tribute of anyone to the Homeland of many! This is timeless and I long for the day when I fly in and see her beauty. When I left many years ago I have kept this song in my heart and it keeps my meories fresh!

[atjones43]

@ikaikajedi I echo your feelings. I went to high school there, Radford, and have been back three times since. Going back for my 50th high school reunion in September. The islands never leave your heart. Another great Beamer Brothers song is Only Good Times. It is kind of our class song.

[23lokelani]

This song holds such Great Memories for me...It still can make me cry for HOME!!

[IJnet]

Miss it so much!

[alika207]

Love! This! Song!

[wjc1952]

Can make me cry.
