This song is awesome, the first time I heard it was the Christmas Eve the year my father passed away. My mother brought my brother and I to Maui as it would be the most unlike Christmas for us (we are from Canada), she took us on a helicopter tour of the island and this song played as the beauty of the island and the song overwhelmed me, I realized all my father had taught me and I could go on even without him. I returned to the island years later with family and married my husband.
nice. . . .Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is admirable~if anything is excellent or praiseworthy~think about such things~
This was the main song for my grandmother's memorial. She had lived with me for 7 years of my life. Their wasn't one second of that long period of time that I didn't like. This song reminds me so much of her. She always talked about Hawaii and going there with me. My Aunt and Uncle still live there and have her ashes. I hope one day that I go there and expierience what she wanted. This is such an amazing song. It brings tears to my eyes. Quite literally.
the original version written and performed by Sweet Honey on The Rock..a female a capella ensemble is THE best version, though this is beautiful also.
This is such a beautiful song that hit's me as I look upon my beautiful view right here out my window....all of god's creation on front of me...Thank you...for this inspiration ...you are a blessin from god above...;-)
This reminds me of 3 boys in my choir who sang this for a final & dedicated it to the graduating seniors ): It was the first time i ever heard this song, & they sang it sooo beautiful. I love this song, and this version too (:
there are no good a cappella recordings of this on youtube except this, the original. the jazz choir at my school is doing this song in their set this semester, and they do an amazing job. Honestly, this has become one of my favorite songs in awhile. amazing.
This song is so beautiful. it reminds me of my granma that passed 2 days before my b-day this year. :( I just wish she could still be here to hear it, like when she played it for me.
I LLOOOVVVEEE Keali'i Reichel's music i always have,growing up, nd no matter where i go i will always miss my homeland nd its many lovable gifts..I MISS YOU HAWAII NEI !!!!!(`:
When my wife and I married on Kaua'i we had two of Mr Reichel's songs played at our wedding. He is an amazingly talented singer with a beautiful voice and this song is so evocative of so many things.
I left home 9 yrs ago (waianae) to make a better life for myself, I have done that,no more hamberguer/cabbage. not knowing when I'm going to eat again. The saddess part of leaveing home is the mus/life and people. It"s so hard on the mind to hear the ina and be there!
such a beautiful song, thank you beautiful people! And Oliver Kinghorn for sending it to me. Blessings eternal too for Dean Hofstee, rest in peace and love forever brother
I have met Keali' i with this song. I did share this song with most of my friend and dear you are the best to express to most important thx for sharing this with us

Saw Keali'i live at Maui Cultural Center with my wife when visiting relatives who were fortunate to retire to the islands.
Keali'i performed this and there is nothing more awesome than seeing this great song sung so tight in concert with his fellow vocalists.
The entire night was one showcase of his hits along with the dancers of his school.
I'll never forget it.
