chicken skin...i am one of the writers of this classic...may the nation of Hawaii rise again...feel free to visit Hawaii78.com to find out the true and fascinating story behind the writing of this song...written by FOUR people. aloha kawika crowley
@madeinhawaii ok junior, you calm down. this song has been around before you were born eh? this song is about brotherhood and mutual understanding/respect. why don't you show some for yourself and embrace these "dumb haoles"?!
Oh my god, I was there. Eddie Vedder is god, and I think that IZ would have been honored to have Eddie cover this song. And he did such a great job on it! Every word was pronounced perfectly.
it doesnt matter i said he did a great job on that song beside he say it was deidcated to IZ him self , Also think IZ him self dont mind . Yes am part Hawaiian and i like Eddie version .
@uhhitsdan it's not stupid it's homage paid to IZ. no he's not from Hawaii. They're from Seattle I'm pretty sure. I am Hawaiian, and I have no problem with this. He tried his best, despite being foreign to the language and culture. I think the reason for this is that music transcends culture, race, sex, and just about any other social barrier that might exist in this crazy world. He Hawai'i Au!
@h9stjarr I am from Scotland but lived in New Zealand for a while and experienced Maori, Samoan and Tongan culture and I have to say I LOVE the music from the Polynesian islands like Samoa and Hawai'i! Aloha!
Very interesting. Mind, I'll always love the original more, but it's good to see more exposure for this song and the message in it.

Amazing, you are quite far away, yet you got a pretty steady shot of Eddie.
Nice clip!

Vedder is not a good singer and he slaughtered this song. I loved PJ in the 90's B4 they really started to suck.
