i didnt say it was "hawaiian"... i wrote that its a "traditional hawaii" song... as in its a tradition for most or all bon dances in hawaii play it.

I first heard this from a Japanese Victor record, Victor 40641, probably from the 1920s. I really like this song and this video. Thank you for sharing it with me!
