I've only been to Hawaii once years ago, but I swore that if I ever got there again I would never leave. This has to be as close to heaven on earth as one can get.

Thank you for this beautiful video!

I pray I can make it to Hawaii just once to see this!! The Hula is truly the most beautiful dance there is!!

Beautiful!  It was like watching one girl reflected in 30 mirrors. Talk about unity! Incredible, beautiful, and moving. Still have chicken skin!

The dancing is excellent and the singing is also outstanding.

This video was a joy to watch, makes me want to go back to Hawaii

WOW!!! Never have I heard and saw such a wonderful performance at Merrie Monarch!!! This is by far the greatest I have seen I don't understand why they did not win!?!? Nat and uncle Howard have such a great harmony. I am brought to tears each time I watch this video it makes me proud to be HAWAIIAN!!!
