- Jack Johnson and dozens of artists joined more than 1,000 Hawai’i keiki (children) in this beautiful medley. Weʻre excited to present our 2nd ʻSong Across Hawaiʻiʻ collaboration with Hawaiian nonprofit @Mana Maoli, filmed across many breathtaking Hawaii locations as part of their #ManaMele project, which features a Music & Multimedia Academy and Solar Mobile Studio with programs in more than a dozen schools.
Turn it up and let the music bring in the light! To learn more about this medley and Mana Mele, follow Mana Maoli on FB & IG, and visit manamele.org, where you can get a personal copy of this video for a donation of any amount.
Playing For Change is a movement created to inspire and connect the world through music, born from the shared belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people. Our primary focus is to record and film musicians performing in their natural environments and combine their talents and cultural power in innovative videos we call Songs Around The World. Creating these videos motivated us to form the Playing For Change Band-a tangible, traveling representation of our mission, featuring musicians met along our journey, and establish the Playing For Change Foundation-a separate 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to building music and art schools for children around the world. Through these efforts, we aim to create hope and inspiration for the future of our planet.

I am 67. I was blessed to live in Hawai'i from 1967 to 1971. My dad was the youth director at Hickam AFB. This video brought me to tears. The 3 years I lived in Hawai'i were happiest part of my childhood and youth. I learned so much in Hawai'i. It took me about 20 years to forgive my dad for bidding on a job that took us away from Hawai'i. Beautiful people. The most culturally diverse place I have ever lived. It is beautiful to see that Hawai'ian culture being celebrated and preserved. Mahalo from HaoleBoy56.
Love this story💕💕💕
Hawaiin culture is just so beautiful and powerful.. watching stuff like this is so moving
This song was inspired by Maori culture
I'm a 62 year old Brit, I sing this song to myself virtually every day on the way to work, it's uplifting,,,,
That’s beautiful!! I hope you still sing this today :) aloha!!
Onipa’a💪🏽
I so very much appreciate this video. It’s my healing video when I can’t be home on the Aina. I stay heartbroken. Beautiful Maui. Lahaina gone. So much sadness in my heart I constantly pray. Feel so sad. Pray for them 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤍
As beautiful as the islands are, it is the people who live there that make this place so memorable and wonderful.
F!CK USA and their global oppression islander is in my blood l, I KNOW it, Universe is inside ALL of US ....LOVE for ALL LIFE ❤️❤️❤️❤️🌺❤️🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
Gilbert - I can understand your anger but rest assure it is the Native Hawaiians and what they mean to the Islands that left a lasting impression with me and many others. Mahalo my friend.
I apologize for my outburst, I truly am a humble being. The pain in my heart, for the atrocities carried out worldwide in the name of greed and power overflows at times. I Wish they all believed that No One can own the land, the land owns us.... Mahalo
DAMN STRAIGHT WE LOVE YOU TOO
@@gilbertdimas9415 yeah brah we gotta separate haoles from our fellow mainland allies. that guy understands - not haole
It’s a place my body has never been. Yet a place my spirit dwells.
Hawaiians at heart
Are you Polynesian?
@@spinzbydagamer111 nope. my family is primarily cajun but that dont mean nothin, im white. my great grandpa lived in hawaii for a big part of his life and he told me stories all the time about it and you know it just stuck with me. im so interested in hawaiian culture and everything hawaii. but im not gonna pretend that i am polynesian/hawaiian
I've been fortunate enough to grace this land. My spirit is desperate to return x
Trust me. If your soul feels this strong, you have been in Hawaii in a past life and will in the future life.
This video Always gets me up in Spirit.
The voices are amazing and so harmonious. The guitars are rad. They All seem so Happy. Love all the Beautiful Smiles.
Love coming back every so often to get Lifted up. THANK YOU ALL!!
Wish I could Hug you all
See? Here I am again 3 hrs later😁 Jammin'. Happy Song. Thanx again
This is my Going Out music i play and sing before heading almost anywhere... Most fun song to sing EVAH, all the way through Jack Johnson with the kids! Mahalo Cruz Family and PFC for the best projects!
I have been to 6 continents and over 70 countries. I have lived in Europe, North America and in the middle east. I was lucky enough to live in Hawaii for 4 years, simply the best years of my life. Lots of love to my Hawaiian ohana. Mahalo
come cruise.... foreva 🤣
No, you're not the only one. We are transplants back to Orlando area. Still love this music and bring back so many wonderful memories for me. Enjoy this once again. Aloha
I moved here to Orlando from makaha
This is my happy song. My greatest gift was a childhood in Hawaii nei. Thank you Maui for everything you provided, we are doing our best to care for you too!
I love living here in my native homeland and I am PROUD to say that I am a Hawaiian
Gotta keep the Hawai'ian traditional strong!!! Every Polynesian Islands from New Zealand, Tonga, Fiji, Samoa, etc still keeping the tradition strong by talking with their native language. In the Hawai'ian Islands you never here anyone speaking Hawai'ian and that's sad. We gotta continue speaking Hawai'ian. We need to educate our children and have them speak Hawai'ian. Don't let our native traditional be lost. We need more videos like this and we need to bring back Hawai'ian study's to the public schools. Mahalo nui loa for this inspiring video.
Except in NZ sadly we do not acknowledge this heritage, they are unique and think the language is not the same ......
you speak for all of NZ? get the fuck outta here. lol
Right on
Im not Hawaiian but I think its some of the most beautiful music in the world. It should be mandatory that the native language be taught in schools across all the Islands. Just like in America the native Indian cultures and language be taught in their schools, my schools. I am native Americab Indian- Cherokee. If all the old cultures were taught today and their language and music, this world would be a much better world to live in. More pure and give our young children something to do and look forward to instead of doing drugs and breaking laws and doing bad things. This is why our creator made different cultures n languages I think. Also to keep something within ourselves that is pure and good innocence. I pray you keep doing what you're doing. Its so beautiful. God Bless you and all the people...💕🙏💕🌴
pololei loa
If you have not traveled to Hawai'i, you must make it part of your lifetime plans. Such a beautiful rich and proud culture with a great love of music.
Lol I lived here all my life this song isnt new to me becuase I know it but it hit me hard
The best nine days of my life were spent in Maui. It needs to be experienced to appreciate how spectacularly beautiful it is.
Actually please dont. Tourism is ruining it.
Hawai'i*
D'ran Dana I cant agree more on that. We’re over crowded with foreigners who fail to understand and respect the amount of work it takes to upkeep our island home and our dying culture. If you can’t care for your own land, stay off of ours. Because “appreciating” the beautiful island, and actually changing your life and trying to change the views around you is what’s actually gonna keep our islands beautiful. Not people coming here and causing more trash and pollution.
Born and raised on Maui and so proud of where I came from! I spread aloha daily and think about my home every 5 minutes for real!
So righteous, so pono, so beautiful. Mahalos for perpetuating this amazing culture that we created in Hawaii cheeeeeehuuuu
This song was inspired by Maori culture
Wish I could click like on this so many times - for John, Paula, Jack and especially my wonderful friend and kapuna, the late Ernie Jr. Mahalo ke Akua.
This is the kind of music that can cheer someone up during this time:)
I do not understand a word from the Hawaian song but i listen to it everyday :D
@@tennispack6225 me to
Nicely said mate 👍🏽
Vivir en una isla, significa necesariamente vivir en estilo insular. Comer ,beber y bailar para ser feliz.
Porque somos gente de mar y de montaña.
Un abrazo para Hawaii y el mundo desde las islas de Juan Fernández.
Aloha hermanos isleños
I am not from the islands but after being stationed there in 1980, and after numerous trips back, I always feel at home there. I miss the islands.
Chorus:
On the island, we do it island style
From the mountain to the ocean from the windward to the leeward side (2x)
Mama's in the kitchen cookinʻ dinner real nice
Beef stew on the stove, lomi salmon with the ice
We eat and drink and we sing all day
Kanikapila in the old Hawaiian way
Chorus
We go grandma's house on the weekend clean yard
If we no go, grandma gotta work hard
You know my grandma, she like the poi real sour
I love my grandma every minute, every hour
Chorus
‘ŌIWI Ē LYRICS
‘Ōiwi e (‘Ōiwi e) Native sons and daughters
(E) kāhea (ana) e nā ‘iwi e Calling all native born
Ua ‘ike mai nei (Ua ‘ike mai nei) Seen here (We know well)
(i) ku‘u one hānau e the land of my birth
Eia mai la (Eia mai) Here they are (Here they come)
Nā kupa‘āina o Hawai‘i nei The native born of Hawai‘i
Kāko‘o mai nei (Kāko‘o mai nei) Lending support here
Kūpa‘a lōkahi e Standing firm in unity
“E kikilo e nā iwi!” Look far, o you descendants
Kikilo e nā iwi, e nā mamo e Look far, o descendants, o children
Nā kini makamaka e All you supporting multitudes
“E kūpaʻa ke kānaka” Stand firm people,
Kūpa‘a ke kānaka Stand firm Hawaiian
hanohano ha‘aheo e glorious and proud,
Kū ke kānaka (Kūpa‘a ke kānaka), Stand firm Hawaiian
hanohano ha‘aheo e glorious and proud
Kahi lua kolu ha - Kia Ora Hi!
Beautiful. Thank you.
Proud UH Moana graduate here,beautiful music, touches the soul.
Every time I hear this song I get choked up and cry. This version is the BEST that I’ve heard. I was stationed at Pearl 83-86. Everyone thought I was a local.
BEST three years of my life and I’m 62 now.
Blessed to be going back to visit in 4 days.❤🤙🏼🤙🏼
I hope it was an amazing trip!
Something about hearing people sing in native tongues really moves me, much love to the islands
This is where I come when I need to smile and find joy. Playing for change is truly inspired in all their productions; an important part of my life.
This song touches the deepest reaches of my soul! Good job folks!! Solid!! I'm trying to teach our kids our lineage. We have in Hawaii. Our culture is important to us. I cry when I think about what has been lost. Everytime I look at our cities here in Hawaii and how much damage it has done to our families, it breaks my heart. Awareness is one step forward!
👍👍🌷
Same same - I am in tears when I hear this song, both because Im so proud of my home but also so sad to see it drifting away. Our parents taught the local ways and culture - that was before the internet. Now everyone is in a rush to be the same and chase the same mainland culture. The people and local culture are what make the islands special and its fading. Cherish it while we can.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!!! Thank you, Hawaii ❤
Hawaii is pure pure ....I was so welcomed since I was a lil kid in Argentina I always wanted to go there I was finally able to go last year and I have never felt so much love from the ppl to the land like I did in Hawaii... I camped every day for a month all over Big Island and was welcomed everywhere Hawaiins kept telling me you not leaving lol is like they knew I didn't want to leave they kept telling me the land welcomed me😥..I felt connected to everything more than anywhere else I been to ...thank you Hawaii Thank you Hawaiians such a vibe so much aloha...this song makes me feel like I'm still there thank you Mahalo🙏🤙🤙💙🤍💙
Culture brings respect, that's what this world is losing.....RESPECT. Well done and a very emotional loving song
So right, without culture we are mere animals...
came for the waves stayed for the culture, Mahalo Nui Loa Hawaii Nei!
I was lucky enough to go to Hawaii as a teenager. The experience is with me still over 45 years later. Lovely place, lovely people. May the Hawaiian culture thrive for generations to come.
Thank You. Never grew up with a culture, but I can relate to all these wonderful people. Even though I'm a white boy.
you'd be family here with that attitude
Guys, thank you so much for a great song!!!! I have been listening to it so many times. It takes me to Hawaii and makes me feel the islands with my heart. God bless you! Mahalo
One cannot help but be Choked w/Emotion when hearing the lyrics & Understanding the meaning....Imua, Na Oiwi....Ua Mau Ke'ea O Ka'aina I Ka Pono!
I un
First time I hear this was on 2018 now I’m back to hear this masterpiece sung by such beautiful people on Earth.
Here’s to indigenous peoples everywhere. Keep the cultures alive!
Mana Maoli: “How much Good Vibes?”
Kanaka: “Yes”.
I'm from Papua New Guinea but I really love listening to Hawaiian music. Sweet and lovely music from the Pacific.
Praise Jesus! These kind souls have Mansions awaiting in heaven
Long Live The Tradition. Miss My Makaha Family - Kamehameha Hwy, Ahikoe St - Long Live Bruddah Iz & Makaha Boyzz.
Thank you for your video 💕this is very beautiful✨our ancestors applaud you all🤗well done! 🌟💖Arohanui, from us in Aotearoa. 🙏💫✨⭐💝
This is the perfect example of why I love Playing for Change so much. The collaborations just infuse me with serenity.
Lived in Hilo 50yrs. ago for 4months and left my heart there. Must go back for it someday. Aloha island people. Much love.
There is only one Hawaii in the whole universe! Blessed in this lifetime to be able to walk the Aina. Love Hawaii and everyone that lives there with all of my heart ❤️ unconditionally.
I am so blessed to have been born in the islands, one day, once again, I will be blessed to go home such Beautiful Ohana with Mana, I absolutely love this video
@Melissa I am from germany. I had the huge luck to visit O'ahu last year during the summer, that was the best time of my life!
One day braddrah, one day. I'm from Oahu.
Kaneohe girl, remember singing this tune.
I Too Miss The Ohana.. Makaha Boyzzz & Bruddah Iz FOREVER!
I have listened to this for over a year. It makes me wonder why we can't all get along? Music can be a unifier. When I visited Hawaii in 1996, I fell in love with the people and the music.
I had watched this before maybe a year back and before reading your comment , I had the same thought too . Maybe all world leaders should watch it together ?
Buenas yan'Hafa Adai !
Beautiful People of Hawaii. Songs n Dance 4 realz show the strong culture of your people of the Hawaiian Island your ancestors are so happy that it will carry on through generations..
Uff! WHAT IS IT ABOUT ISLANDS? Is it the sun, the water? Seems so fantastically joyous! I used to want to be Cuban! Now I want to be Hawaiian! I adore this music, especially the 2nd part...where this guy in the fields starts belting his heart out! This commanding confidence and quality should make you all proud! I’m from England! ALL WE HAVE IS THE QUEEN AND HER HIGHLY DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY. Oh..and The Beatles..,ok, they’re pretty good!
And the Moody Blues

My grandma and great grandma were from Hawaii and they both passed within a week of each other in 2018. There's not a day that goes by that I don't miss them. Thank you Playing for Change for making this. You are doing such great things in the world. Thank you.

Danke, ich habe so viel Freude mit diesem Lied und ich tanze das seit kurzen jeden Tag. ❤️ 💃
Spirit of Golds Island! Preservation of pure culture!
The Cruz `ohana definitely took a huge loss last year but this is a wonderful tribute.
So much peace Hawaii
If my grandson included me in a song and said he loved me every minute every hour I would know then, I was good. I love you John Cruz.
Cheeeewooooooo.............Mahalo for the Love and beauty of the song..........
world is so beautiful full of fantastic people … love u all
I lived in Hawai’i for 4 years. This song helps me remember all the wonderful memories I have in the island.
Same
I love Hawai’i, I’ve been living there for about 9 years probably
I Still know how to start my day off right.
The absolute beautiful voices and harmony.
Yeahhhh....❤
Magnifique comme tout ce qu'ils font. Je suis fan à 100% de Playing for Change
Bless up! This song and this performance take me to a time and place I've never been to, specifically, but have a lot of nostalgia for. Mahalo.
👏🏼👏🏼👍👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
OMG IT'S JACK JOHNSON!
Hey Playing for Change,
I don't know if you will read this but... First of all I need to thank you for all emotions that you brought to me over your videos, when I go outside to work or just look over window I see that we all forgot how to be humans, how to laugh and speak and talk about life and peace. But when I hear these soft and gentle heavenly good sounds, it brings me joy, laughter and sometimes tears. When I see these happy people from Hawaii I wish that I am born there, here in my country we lost that laughter and everything that makes us human, and I hope we will bring it back one day, you are helping me to bring it back on my face, maybe I will help someone else and so on...
Thank you for existence of this movemenet, if someone deserve Nobel prize for peace, that is you!
I wish you all the best.
hawaii music melt your heart
Beautiful theme songs. Reminds me of Somne beautiful days I spent in Hawaii. I have learnt the "OIWI" song by heart and plan inn teaching it to my daughter so she can play it too.
Peace and Love to my Hawaiian brothers and sisters!!
EXTRAORDINARY! This is where Music is going. In the FUTURE.
Collective singing. Al Worldl voices harmonize.♥️🎶
Its great, so uplifting and Praise our God. Amen
It doesn’t get any better than this. Love it ❤️, Peace ✌️.
Hawaii is simply wonderful with the happiest people
You never talked to a keiki o ka `aina. Ask him about being happy about losing his kingdom.
I love Hawaii and the original Hawaiian spirit of the people, but sadly some Hawaiians have become bitter towards other people who like their lifestyle and brotherhood instead of educating and teaching others how to have the same. It is ironic and sad. We should all spread the love and caring. That is what this group seems to be trying to do. Thank You for this truly beautiful video.
Tino ātaahua hāwai ❤
I grew up with Guy Cruz in Palolo Valley. Lots of good times and memories. (R.I.P).
Absolute MAGIC!
Both these songs are so beautiful.
We still here 2023 & We keep it island 🏝️ style!!!!- Che-hoooooo!🤙🏼
I come across this from time to time and always watch with great memories of my time there and with great respect and admiration for all those who give so freely of the Aloha Spirit. Thank you Hawaii and your people.
You never fail to brighten my day Playing For Change. And i thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Love And Blessings Of The Most Highest x
Always cheer me up too! Exceptional recordings, with exceptional recording quality - the sound engineers are as equally skilled as the musicians. Beautiful.
