The Akiapola'au Song

[884lifeson]

Imagine if u woke up and tht snail was in ur face

[884lifeson]

@ZeekyBoogyPoop Not really dude it's actually in my little language called Hawaiian brah

[moviemagic8011]

That song was beautiful!

[safregoso]

K,T

[RedwulfLady]

English + Hawaiian :D yay for the Elvis snail

[crystaldragon067]

he sounds like elvis a little

[saltose]

@erwin1533 no

[AnimalLover9473]

did this song come out of chowders but?

[hachirish]

Does anyone know what he's singing? I can't make out the chorus. Sounds like he's singing "akiapolapo hapo abo hawaia"which makes no sense. And the refrain, although it should be " aloha 'oe" sounds more like "aloao". U cant read his lips either. Lol

Love the song though, just wish I knew the words.

[GJShig]

what is an akiapola'au?

[darkruler65]

@GJShig endangered bird from hawaii.

[jwlk30]

[PurpleWitchAla]

I really like your videos squetch, thank you for uploading them. Really nice animation combined with a good song. Rhino Song and Green Anaconda Song are also awesome :)

[musicmesilly]

[JustinBeverRules]

What is a Akiapola'au???



[Chirostenotes]

@JustinBeverRules The bird, duh.

[triniboy2235]

i didnt understand a word

[swanheart710]

this is an extremely depressing children's video O.O At least they're teaching them the truth, eh?

[Larkskar]

@swanheart710 how is it depressing? its a relaxing song.

[swanheart710]

@Larkskar Because the bird is so endangered...see Mohoea's comment below.

[Mohoea]

Unfortunately the ʻAkiapōlāʻau is critically endangered. Itʻs populations drop every year with only about a thousand remaining. Predation by introduced cats, and rats is thought to be the biggest reason why. It could easily become extinct in the next decade.... :( aloha nō nā manu Hawaiʻi ʻōiwi i ka halapohe ʻia!

[kendrat199]

if I was that Akiapola'au, I wouldn't be closing my eyes around that stalker, secret-admiring-lookin' snail.

I so want an Akiapola'au now! (yay copy n paste. no way I could've spelled that. haha)

-kendra <3

[TylerReechards]

[MrsBooks]

Love the song and video! Great way to send an educational message too! Thanks! MB:)

[darkruler65]

i live in hawaiii and wow...this song is awesome..

[CoolGirlJill]

really O_O I always wanted to go there X3

[darkruler65]

lol not if u live there @___@ its a tiny island so theres not really much to do. but hawaiian waters is the best, to bad they changed the name to ''wet n' wild''

sounds like some porn movie =.=;;

[CoolGirlJill]

lol yeah I heard they have the best surf in the world ^_^

[darkruler65]

lol, north shore ftw xD

[redrosecross]

@CoolGirlJill yeah i surf them everyday, theres a great spot right down the road from me, i live on oahu

[CoolGirlJill]

@redrosecross cool ^_^ I've always wanted to go there X3 it's beautiful and the people there seem so friendly X3 I'd like to know more about the Hawaiian culture I wish I had an Hawaiian friend XP oh well maybe someday I'll come see that place XD

[redrosecross]

@CoolGirlJill lol i can be your hawaiian friend, but tbh, friendly would be liest here, they hate white people, im white and it took a while to fit in, other then that. The population of Hawaii is %80 filipino, but im starting to notice more and more white people from military families here. Attitudes and personalities here are much different, I would say less domesticated and more laid back islander style. Some people you may notice are rough around the edges least to say.

[CoolGirlJill]

@redrosecross wow that's supriseing O_O but good to know I guess XD ok I'll invite u as a friend ^_^ and we can send messages to each other X3 and stuff XD

[Experement77]

Not to sound like a smart ass but....It's not hawaiian, it's just has the slow flowing style to it...It's all in english. I love this song, very relaxing and somewhat imformative...I listen to this every night before I got to sleep and always have dreams about tropical forests...It's scary

[Teufel59]

Wer singt dieses Lied?? Es ist schön zum Entspannen.

[deosaiplains]

Best song to put my kids to sleep

[Lexnoesbest]

its hawaiian ^^

[izitinyou]

What language is this?

And is this song famous somewhere?

I like it tho... The song and video seem so relaxing oohhh ahh!

[ZeekyBoogyPoop]

its in a language called english

[islandgirls808]

@ZeekyBoogyPoop akiapola'au is Hawaiian...

[fuxxyproductions]

i love this song

[snapgirl12]

IM ADDICTED TO THIS SONG!!!

[skullkid3091]

i dont like this one cause it doesnt really teach anything bout the bird like teh other ones do

[CpFreePasses]

It teaches about rainforests dissapearing all over the world if you listen carefully around 0:42

[FlorenceKnights]

If your looking for a new children's book full of poetry and colorful illustrations.

Copy & Google: ("DoortoYourImagination")

[americanninjax]

Akiapola'au is the name of the type of bird in the video.

[ConkLovesMen]

WTF is it?

[rachiti]

but what does "Akiapola'au" mean? I get the impression that it means farwell when translated, but i'm not entirely sure. The 'about this video' section doesn't say either...like the hint to everyone on the deforestation.

[RatafakTehPlachta]

AkiapolaAu is the name of that little irritating bird ^^

[ThePownMaster]

@RatafakTehPlachta Your irritating

[lizilizi1]

Cute! I love the breathing of the sleeping bird, the swaying flowers, and the rippling water. 

I'll let my kid watch this.

[victorcelmare]

u should make songs that send message of protecting the enviroment and save endangerd species..which i think u already starting to do ur awsome, try to put some hidden messages inside too 5/5!

[wrecche]

I dare you to accompany a slipknot song to these wonderful animations !!

Lets see the skill, not just these easy low key tunes !! :)

Dare #1 !! TEEHEE

[1337Breen]

Yeah, Slipknot is really hard music.
