Very nice cover Jesse. :-) I overlooked this one. You are the "Velvet Fog" of Hawaiian music. Every time I listen to you I think of Mel Torme.

Thanks, Bubba. I sing in my squeaky tinny voice and I hear Alfred Apaka in my head...

Hi Jesse can you do a tutorial or cover for this song? Can you also show me how to tune it to slack key if its in slack key guitar? Im planning to sing this for my wedding with just the gat. I could really use your help on this one please.
