This brotha is magical. Very few people can put the soul of a people and culture in their music. His music represents the spirit of Aloha. You have to live in Hawaii (not tourist) to truly understand and feel the music. Although not a true Hawaiian (mainland import), I have learned to love and respect the land, the people, and meaning of Aloha.
If you click on "more info" written in blue at the right of the webpage for the song, it will expand and give you the words in Hawaiian first, then lower down it gives the English translation.
You can download it with the dvdvideosoft program, it converts it to an mp3 file, I'm not affiliated with the company, but I use the program frequently
To the fuck head 'chekmebaby' get the fuck off here then! Why is your closed minded ass watching this beautiful song if your saying "2 bad he ghey"? Dumb fucking breeders
He married my grandma's sister cousins until they divorced. My family is from Lihue, Kauai. I never got to really meet him cause I was just a little boy but, I do remember seeing him at some of our big family get together BBQ's.
ya habia iode del cantante por una cancion que nos enseñaban en la escuela de hawaiiano se llamaba kanapou tambien esta padre esa cancion se baila muy bonito
y como me gusto mucho la de mauna leo ya me la aprendi es muy buena para la relajacion y buen ejercicio de brazos
'Na' is attached to words to make them plural, such as 'Na Wahine', meaning women, where as Wahine means woman. Not "the". Mele means happy or good, not songs.
i love this halau...its about time that this halau hula went to the merrie monarch and look....they went home with a miss.aloha hula its just WONDERFULL
Fuck You If U THink This Music Sucks THen Why Did u Click on It DUm FUck Ur u dont even kno wat is he talking about im fuckin 89%Z Hawaiian Born ANd raised On Maui~!
one of my favorite hawaiian artist but my first is Mark Ho`omalu I danced for him and my mom has been dancing with him since she was 18 and when she was still in Hawaii she danced for IZ and Keali'i Reichel . My mom was with mark in the beginning of Na Mele Hula Ohana not sure if any of u kno that but yea .I also met him at Marks concerts they did one together n I was 7 sitting behind keali'i Reichel from where he was signing autographs and he signed my shirt for me this was back in 1996 i think
wow I wish I was there that is awesome Keali'i Reichel is awesome but brother IZ was a true spirit of Hawaii millions miss him even people who did not know him know he was kind and sweet to all especially hawaii. Aloha Oe to all
The great thing is: Although I don't speak the language, I somehow understood the meaning of the song...I suspected that it was some sort of description of "Maunaleo", I had the feeling to hear the wind speaking...and then I looked up the translation and was totally happy that I was right. The motions and the music is speaking to one more than any words could.
his halau was great this year at merrie monarch 2009!!! i live right up the road from the tennis stadium, and i could hear it and it brought me to tears...
The spirit of aloha is shared in Savasana during the close of yoga practice at UC Berkeley in my vinyasa classes. Indeed, the presence of the breath---connecting mind, body and spirit.
i love this song. we do it in HUla halau. i dont know it too well. but i think it is a truly beautiful song. espescially when my kumu dances it. its magical. you feel like your apart of the song. i love it
I love this song! Keali`i Reichell has been my favorite hawaiian singer since I was a young boy. His mele always brings me back to reminiscing of my childhood in the beautiful islands of Hawai`i. I mua Hawai`i.
Keali'i Reichel's beautiful songs in the Hawaiian language are so expressive of the culture and values of the people. I visited 4 Hawaiian islands in August/2008. The best part of the vacation was seeing the picturesque islands, hearing firsthand of the Hawaiian history and experiencing Hawaiian culture. The OHANA values of the people are the BEST! Best of luck to you, cousins, from a high school teacher in Texas. Mahalo por todo.
well... your right... hes not lypsinching... but this isnt the performance for this song... watch his lips and listen to the words hes singing when his lips arent even moving... and they are dancing the motions of the meledy...where theres no words....the video and song are not one in the same...
it's just a postsynchro pb! the diretor of this video did not synch what he filmed with sound track recorded. He mixed various images from all cameras in one videos. So some synchro pbs apeared obviously. It's just technical pb not artistic one. Kealii is one of the best singers of Hawaii nei. Mahalo nui Kealii
Aloha teriimataha. What he teaches goes beyond this world. His mele is to enjoy. The passion of him being a kumu hula shows every where he goes (worldwide). For those who don't appreciate. Aloha e', Aloha no
Yeah, me too. It's sad. He some people say he's not but he totally is. I've played this video at the same time as the song on the CD and it's exactly the same. Unless the maker of this video synced the audio version on top of this video. But yeah, great song :)
Living in Canada and watching Keali'i sing this song and other songs from him on youtube makes me homesick and realize what I miss about home. Family, Friends, Hawaiian Music, Plate lunches from Zippy's, Graces, Rainbows, and not to forget the BEACHES and having BBQS on them. All in all, makes me appreciate where I came from and Proud to be called HAWAIIAN.
I don't have his latest cd, but I have the prior three cd albums. Just amazing music. I really like this guy's work. My wife and I tank up on his music when we fly out to the islands of Hawai'i. Spiritually enriching.
Aloha, He has a DVD "Kukahi in Concert" out. It is a must to have it. This song is also on it. Plus, you get to see his mother performing. Take care and Aloha no'.
They played a new recording of "Maunaleo" on the Hawaiian Airlines flight back to Seattle recently. I teared up right away and couldn't believe how much I already missed Hawaii (Maui). I visited a heiau in the Wailuku area my last day and strive to honor and respect people and place wherever I go so the song is especially touching to me. I still tear up and smile wide every time I hear it.
i have danced hula since i was just a little girl at age 3 and since this song came out wheni was seven i have long to learn this song. so this video will help alot. and the dance is quite simple to me because i watched this video about a million time :)
LOOK AT - The 'Grace' (flow from Heaven) of HIS hands as he moves them to the words of th song... so sensual and of love.. the beauty of the Heavens! Fell in Love with the Essence of this Song... IT IS FROM THE HEART! Mahalo
LOOK AT - The 'Grace' (flow from Heaven) of HIS hands as he moves them to the words of th song... so sensual and of love.. the beauty of the Heavens! Fell in Love with the Essence of this Song... IT IS FROM THE HEART! Mahalo
This song has special meaning to us. The Pastor's children did the hula at our wedding in Maui to this song, we both cried, the Holy Spirit was there.
I found this guy by accident a few days ago. i was hoping there was some video on him...thank you! He has such a pure voice! he sings another one called Malie's Song...it is even prettier.
Keali'i is a wonderful singer & Kumu. Whenever, I can have a chance to watch Bernard's group perform with Keali'i it's always a pleasure. You can hear the emotion and see the mana through the dance.
I feel so fortunate to have discovered Keali'i back in 1985. My wife and I luckily bought a photograph of him back then by now famous, Jay Braun. It is numbered 1 (as in the first one bought) and has been with us ever since. Eight years after that first fateful trip to Maui we moved there and stayed for as long as we could. In Virginia we listen to him and other Hawaiians to keep our sanity. It's great to see his music continues to spread aloha worldwide. Aloha
I can't think of anything else to say so I'm jumping onto yours....this was beautiful. Thanks danae53 for sending this my way. I will listen to it probably 100 times or more.
Today in my dance class we were taught how to dance to this song and the woman who taught us told us to close our eyes and picture the person that represents the love and inspirtation we need in our lifes and i pictured my fiance who has been apart from me a long time now. I cried as watched and felt my body move to the music. I really love this song and the dance is just as beautiful! If you have truly loved anyone in your life this song should represent the feelings you have for that person.
Your welcome Danae53. Sorry, for the late response. He will be doing a Christmas concert with other Hawaiian artist that I will attend. I will keep you post if anything comes up. Aloha no
Thankyou very much,Naaukane! I was so hoping he'd make another album. Keali'i's music is such an expression of the Sacred. Bless him and Bless you. Thanks again!
Hi Naakuane, I posted a comment. It didn't go for some reason. I just want to say thankyou for posting the info about Kukahi. Keali'i's music is such an expression of the Sacred and I have been hoping there would be another DVD album. Blessings to him and to you. Again, thankyou!
I lived on Oahu back in the 80's for 2 years and have missed the Islands. Went back and worked on a ranch near Wai'anae for about 4 weeks when I was 16. I have introduced my kids to Brotha Iz and Hula which we watch on youtube... Where can I find this DVD Album? I mean I live in Alabama, not so much Hawaiian music avail. Thanks.
Aloha! Thank you for this beautiful video! Maunaleo is one of my favourites of Keali'i Reichel's beautiful Hawaiian Mele. I especially love this mele he composed for his beloved Mother Lei. Mahalo A nui loa ~ Sharon
A man that brings life to our nation. Through his music tells the stories of once was and now lives. Awakens the soul and revives our hearts to be humble.
salve sono louisette da Pisa Italia,questa musica e bellissima,io la metto quando faccio il massaggio lomi-lomi il massaggio hawaiano grazie a chi ha messo questo video
I learned this same hula at a seminar taught by Kealii Reichel in Indiana a few years ago. It looks easy but by the time we were done we all had sore knees! One of the most difficult and beautiful hulas I have ever learned.

Thankyou very much,Naaukane! I was so hoping he'd make another album. Keali'i's music is such an expression of the Sacred. Bless him and Bless you. Thanks again!

Hi Naakuane, I posted a comment. It didn't go for some reason. I just want to say thankyou for posting the info about Kukahi. Keali'i's music is such an expression of the Sacred and I have been hoping there would be another DVD album. Blessings to him and to you. Again, thankyou!

I lived on Oahu back in the 80's for 2 years and have missed the Islands. Went back and worked on a ranch near Wai'anae for about 4 weeks when I was 16. I have introduced my kids to Brotha Iz and Hula which we watch on youtube... Where can I find this DVD Album? I mean I live in Alabama, not so much Hawaiian music avail. Thanks.

Aloha! Thank you for this beautiful video! Maunaleo is one of my favourites of Keali'i Reichel's beautiful Hawaiian Mele. I especially love this mele he composed for his beloved Mother Lei. Mahalo A nui loa ~ Sharon

A man that brings life to our nation. Through his music tells the stories of once was and now lives. Awakens the soul and revives our hearts to be humble.

I learned this same hula at a seminar taught by Kealii Reichel in Indiana a few years ago. It looks easy but by the time we were done we all had sore knees! One of the most difficult and beautiful hulas I have ever learned.
