Now's the time... LOVE that you are going through the songbook! Hope you are doing well! Stay Safe n Healthy! Love hearing your amazing voice!
So glad you did this tutorial on this great mele from Hui Ohana. I been waiting for this ... to play along with my favorite Hawaiian groups. Mahalo e Steven!
I first heard this beautiful song at a classmate's (Farrington) memorial service. It was sung by an angelic Samoan choir. The piety and melody always brings heartfelt tears welling in my eyes. Mahalo for the tutorial, NOW I can play it to my heart's desire. Pass da kine Kleenex, you real shaka brah. Fondest Aloha.
I am in Hawaii for a little while, and I’ve never played a song on a uke. Your videos are so approachable and songs beautiful. This makes me want to start. Now if I could figure out the English translation so I know what I am saying. Lol. Really, tho, very good video. You have a gift.
Aloha e Steven! Hope you & your ‘ohana are not suffering from the wildfire smoke as we are here in PNW. Love this mele! Could you put Ahe lau makani on the list for future tutorials? Mahalo!

Darn not sure what I even did...lol
What kind of ukulele is the one you’re using? And also what brand?

I'm having a tuff time with F7..my pinky finger can't reach..another chord I can use?😢
You actually don’t need to hit that last note on the A string. If you look closely, I’m not using my pinky for the F7 ;)
I use my ring finger on that third fret to make the F7 - it’s easier then to switch to the Bb
@@StevenEspaniola Thanks Steven! Much easier now!
Steven...I don't play any instruments..just like the music...interesting...nothing like Free instructions...
Mahalo for watching the vids!
the sound and image are out of sync in this video, otherwise good stuff, thanks
ZionForman Might be a buffering issue on your computer. Have gazillion checked on several platforms and seems fine. Was there a particular section?
@@StevenEspaniola , I only mentioned it because you said you got some new recording gear, but from my end it looks out of sync, the whole clip, no worries appreciate the quality teaching ,
ZionForman Mahalo for watching the vids!! Weird...Haven’t heard any other synching reports.
Omg. Talk so much!
