I love them both --> Mackey Feary of Kalapana (remake) & Bobby Caldwell (original). I would always agree that no one beats the original. But this time, Mackey wins! Well, in my opinion...
I wasn't even born when The Hurt and Nightbird hit the charts, but with its tune and lyrics, I became a big fan of Kalapana. I first heard this song way back in 1995 (not on CD but Casette Tape) and I didn't knew then that Kalapana were the artists for The Hurt and Nightbird. Great artists...
@bubwitmaingay me too. Wasn't born yet when those songs came out but I always hear The Hurt and Nightbird on the radio that I persuaded my mom to buy me their album back in the 90s (something like their best of album)
I really appreciate you taking the time to add the lyrics here, it makes it easy to understand the song the 1st time you hear it, and this is a great one. What a group & it's a shame a lot of people on the mainland don't have a clue how many great musicians & singers there are here in Hawaii.. for talent, Hawaii probably has more than any other state based on just its population alone..
i really really love this song. i've been looking for bobby caldwell's cd in the store.couldnt find one,even at youtube.good the kalapana has a version of this song.thanks so much.guess i listen to this song 15 times a day or more.
this song, kick it, seaside M and you must believe me are the only songs i listen to on this album. i swear kalapana is my favorite band. i wish i was alive to see mackey play with the whole band. i wish i was born in the 70's lol screw being 17 already.
Could anybody share the first song entitled "You Must Believe" here ? I miss that song too since my cassette was destroyed by flood last 2002 in Jakarta. Mahalo & aloha from Indonesia.
I Love you too Mike B....The circle we have cannot be broken...Its been almost a year, and were thousands of miles apart...My heart, my love is still strong...I live day to day in hopes I return home soon...Thank you for loving me and waiting patiently...I Heart You Always, Carol C......
... I really love Kalapana's songs, they make me feel that gentle sea breeze, the smell of salty air, and the rapping of the sea waves meeting the shore... especially with someone beside you... so cheezy! I love to feel love with their songs.
what a beautiful song.... it brings back memories of d past... i remember 1 special person who gave me that song. He was wonderful, adorable, and kind... but how sad, maybe, we're not meant for each other coz hes w/someone elses arms, huhuhu... still wishing that someday we were be able to express our love and become the happiest couple ever!
anyway tnx for posting, coz, once again i feel that wonderful feeling one could ever wished for..
Just today, I've heard this song being played on the radio 3 times - morning, while on my way to the work, before lunch at the office and @ 3pm while having my coffee break. It is being played redundantly here in the Phils., being covered by some Filipino bands in their gigs, not to mention a number of my friends who own an album. Truly, Kalapana still ROCKS! The Philippines been missin' Mackey for more than ten years now...
Been listening to this everyday for 12 years now. I'll die if someone remove it from my file. I remember, I cried hard when I sold my car to a car dealer and I forgot to get my CD before I left. The next day, I went back to get it, I found out that someone (a customer) who took a look at my former car, asked the dealer if he can take the the CD. whew! It took me 2 months and 16 record bars to find for a replacement, leaving my office as early as I can so that I could have much time to find a CD.
@babycatsina really really love this song.been looking for bobby caldwell's cd, the original singer, in the store.couldnt find one. thanks,kalapana has their own version.
Mackey you continue to live on in the songs & music you left us. No one can sing this like you can....'gotta be the real thing' I love this song sooo much!
GrandMasterGuess,thank you for posting the lyrics. What a telling song and sung so soulfully by Mackey. Mac, I hope you finally found the "real thing" in God's hands. It'll be 10 years since your passing (Feb 20.) Missing you...
I love them both --> Mackey Feary of Kalapana (remake) & Bobby Caldwell (original). I would always agree that no one beats the original. But this time, Mackey wins! Well, in my opinion...
