I'm not sure that you realized it, but this is a version celebrating Iz's life after he died. The end of the video shows his ashes being scattered over the water.
I didn’t 😞
@@MaddyReactions i didnt catch it either the very first time i saw this video....its a heavy tune...i recently learned that he recorded it, i think , in 1993, & it didnt do much outside of hawaii (in the "grunge era" of the early 90's) & then he passed n 1997-ish, & then around 1999 this song was in a car commercial (or something), & then soon it was in a bunch of commercials/ads, & it was everywhere, i remember not knowing who it was but just being enchanted by it (there was no internet then tho, so, finding out what a song used in an ad was hard info to get, & it took a while. And radio stations were/are really corporate & i guess it wasnt "slick" ,enuf for them, & Mtv, production-wise)...anyway, its just so gorgeous, idk, a lot of ppl heard & fell in love with this cover where he just made it his own. Anyway, thx to the internet, IZ now has a billion views, & his time for recognition had finally come...he had a short, but interesting life for sure...anyway, great reaction maddy
I tell everybody that if you were at IZ’s funeral you had to be IN the ocean at Makua Beach looking towards the shore 💯
From “Pray for Sex Beach” (east end of the beach) to “I don’t knowz” (the west end) about a mile long must’ve had about 10,000-15,000 people-and hundreds of big rigs and dump trucks. Me and my friends were swimming splashing water while holding onto the Hokulea, the boat they were letting his ashes go from💯🙏
@@napu2652 Thanks for sharing that.
That last scene was them spreading his ashes in the ocean.
Oooh
IZ was beloved, and his music is a reflection of his sweet soul. 😊 Thank you, Maddy! 💕 JB
So true!! 💖
This was his 'In Memoriam'. The funeral at the end, is the most beautiful I've seen.
#IZLives
Random fact... he was trying to get this recorded and know one would gave him the time finally one day a producer/studio gave him 15min in the studio and he recorded this in one take... he died not long after.
And now is one of the most well-known, listed to and viewed songs in history.
WOW!!!
I got married to Iz singing this! RIP! No sad faces, only happy faces from his legacy! : )
🤍🤍🤍
Our family were blessed to live in Hawaii for three years, and were doubly blessed to live there when the late, great Mr. Israel Kamakawiwo’ole, more popularly known as "Bruddah IZ," was still alive, but unfortunately passed away during our time in Hawaii. As is the case in so many places and cultures, you can't really understand it if you haven't been there. Hawaii is paradise, and anyone reading my comment MUST put visiting Hawaii on their bucket list. We experienced 1,000 days of perfect weather, with the palm trees swaying, the flower petals floating to the ground and the birds singing--EVERY DAY. It's magical.
Awww
🖤🖤🖤 .. you are not the only one reacting that did not realize that the video was a tribute to his funeral. He was beloved , he was a true talent. What you noticed in his community coming out was their respect and joy for him. They celebrated his life , which was cut short. The song is just joyous and his voice is just so tender. If you watch it again., you will see them spreading his ashes. Keep bringing the great music Maddy. 🎼🖤🎼
So sad
People need to pay attention and quit talking and not paying respect to the artist/song. I watched ALL the way to the end, hoping that You would get the reason for the celebration, but You didn't.
Kinda sad. I pick songs like this one to gauge a reaction video. Needless to say, I'm not coming back.
@@leeannsheridannicolai1806Your bitter spirit contradicts the peace of IZ. I hope you can relax, and allow God’s Grace to wash you. No reason to lash out at a reactor for not seeing what you want them to see. They’ve never seen it before. So you could politely educate them, instead of harshly rebuking them. Be patient, just like God is patient with you and me.
Blessings 🙏✝️
jesus doesn't like fake ass internet christians either xD call them bitter then try to play the christian porfavor mijo@@christoffesedao3579
Not everyone is aware of the rituals and ceremonies of other cultures when someone passes away. In New Orleans they party happily and loudly, in some places they dress in black for months, and in others the body is left out in the open for months so the spirits can leave when they are ready. She was not aware of the Hawaiian ceremony and life celebration. Don't be so harsh. She learned about it and is now wiser than yesterday.@@leeannsheridannicolai1806
The song was originally recorded in a spur-of-the-moment demo session in 1988. Israel had an idea of singing it this way, called the recording studio at 3 am, and was given a 15-minute deadline to arrive by the recording engineer.
Wow!
And it only took one take!
The song is so beautiful and serene with a deep sadness at it's core.
So true!
This is my FAVORITE version of this song, and in my opinion the best one. Thanks for this reaction, Maddy!
Such a good version!
It’s a wonderful world, he covers it.
Ooohh
The sparkle in your eyes and the smile on your face reflects the power in this sweet song has
This is the most beautiful version of this song . The story of how he recorded this is amazing too . Thanks for reacting to this .
💖💖💖
@@MaddyReactions watched a few more of your responses after this one . Joined your team . You are the heart of what we need more of . Have a great weekend .
As well as a wonderful singer, IZ was literally an angel come to live among us. They way he loved and treated people, friends and strangers alike, was angelic.
He's gone back home now and we all miss him deeply.
Whenever I see a rainbow, I see Bruddah IZ...
Yay, I love IZ and this sweet song. He is over the rainbow smiling down on us ❤😊
My favorite song of all time. Izzy's voice was so soothing and melodic.
About 5 years ago i watched a movie from 2000 called "Finding Forrester" (Sean Connery) and this song played at the end, loved it, never realized song was from 1993. It is as much of
a gem, as a lady named Maddy.
Ooohh
May his soul be taken care of forever!!!!💖
Amen
This performance of the song was featured in the movie "50 First Dates", starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. Vale Izzy, may he rest in peace. A truly beautiful rendition of this classic song from The Wizard of Oz.
The guy is still a legend in Hawaii (rightfully so)
He really is!
Mahalos (thank you) for sharing your reaction/love to this beloved mele (song) of Braddah IZ. His voice is so hauntingly beautiful on this that it never leaves a dry eye when one listens to it!
He was loved by all in his community on the island of Oahu and was a treasure to be around.
Aloha and mahalos from Hawaii nei!!
For any wondering how to pronounce his name it’s (Kah-mah-kah-vee-voh-o-lay) hope this helps lol
That was beautiful but IZ will live on forever ❤
So true
When the Hokule'a is involved in your ash ceremony, you know you have reached island royalty.
💖💖💖
Maddie, If you didn't know, Hawaii is known as "The Rainbow State".
Oh wow! I didn’t!
Reminds you how important it is to get good wholesome Vibes in your music from time to time RIP big kahuna
What the community does in Hawaii to honor, the paddle out. They recently did it for the people of Lahaina. Miss IZ, he was definitely one of a kind.
Pacific islanders produce a lot of beautiful, peaceful music. I don't know that it would be good for a reaction, since it is sung in a local Polynesian language (Pu'amotu), but you might for example enjoy listening to Raumata's "Te Manu Hoata" for your own pleasure. As noted it is beautiful and peaceful, both the music and video, even for those who don't know the language...IMHO.
Oh lovely!
One best song ever and Love him . He gone to soon Break My Heart ❤️
💖💖💖
The end was his funeral BUT BEAUTIFUL
So bittersweet
My favorite of his is White Sandy Beach of Hawaii.
Aww
You don’t appear to realize the party at the end is his funeral.
I didn’t 😭
Yep. They are tossing his ashes into the sea.
Yeah this is a beautiful song, so peaceful and touches your soul. Not many songs can do that. John Denver does that with his music. Know him? “Sunshine on my shoulder” will give you the same happy feeling inside.
Oooh, sounds like a cool song!
@@MaddyReactions You’ll love John Denver, he’s one of my favorites of all time. You can’t go wrong with any of his songs. You’re doing a great job btw
Indeed, John Denver was a peaceful soul and that comes through in his music.
Since you have also just discovered Home Free, I would recommend first listening to John Denver performing Take Me Home Country Roads, and then comparing it to Home Free's version. Both are beautifual, expressing a deep appreciation for nature's beauty, but are still very different. You could also compare Denver's Thank God I'm a Country Boy to Home Free's version - not as different, within the limitations of HF's being acapella, but the HF video is a lot of whimsy.
Start of the video: he’s like an angel
End of the video: he is an angel 😇
RIP IZ!!!
He passed? 😭
@@MaddyReactions Yes, the video you watched featured his celebration of life on the water with his ashes and the signs "IZ Lives!"
As you might have noticed from the video, he was extremely obese (nearly 1000 lbs near the end). This led to a bunch of health problems. He died from a heart attack at only 38 years old.
Great song 💯💯🔥🔥
💖💖💖
Hell yeah I'm crying 🤙🏼
Those souls full of peace soon leave this world and transcend beyond this earthly life, perhaps they manage to awaken and understand things that those of us who are still here have not yet been able to perceive and understand. He already left a legacy in the world that may help many people, and now he is in a better place
Thai so such a beautiful song, I really enjoyed your reaction while listening to it. It’s so tranquil and amazing.
IZ is in Heaven and is an Angel
A real Angel 🤍
Hopefully he's over the rainbow. R. I. P. IZ
Most listened to version of this song...
The most beautiful funeral ever held. I hope his ashes reached the Motherland.
😭😭😭
A legend in Hawaii!!! ❤❤❤
This was awesome what they did here
I agree
MaddyReactions, please react to Iz's White Sandy Beach of Hawai'i. It is one of the most beautiful love songs.
Hi I just subscribed because you seem more real about your with reactions to the video's. Have you done any of the Bee Gees songs. Like , Words and I started a Joke .and Massachusetts. I hope your channel keeps growing..
Nice they included his funeral in video
I didn’t realize
@@MaddyReactionsThey scattered his ashes out to sea in a traditional Hawaiian Burial and celebration of his life
Definitely the unofficial king of the islands for sure
💖💖💖
♥
You are TOO Cute!!, I Luv your reactions!! Thank you!!
Thank you ☺️💖
Best version ever.
🤍🤍🤍
White sandy beaches makes me SOB when I hear it and I don’t even know why
He’s not dead, he’s somewhere in the rainbow 🌈
So pretty...❤
His burial at sea
Those were his ashes
What a tragedy that he died so young.
You are beautiful!
R and IP .......IZ
😭
Beautiful girl. Really. I really enjoyed listening and watching this tape
.please do me, your biewers and yourself a favor and play "Me and Little Andy' by Dolly Parton and let me lnow what uou think of it please. Your opinion means alot to me. Thank you. Have a Blessed Day. Adios.😂❤😂❤😂❤😂❤
I find it so crazy how everyone finds this to be a happy song. It's a song about someone who is awaiting or wanting death. "I heard a song about a place over the rainbow. Where troubles melt away. Birds can fly, why can't I? I'll be there one day. If you can't find me, that's where I am." Don't get me wrong, it's an AMAZING song, but it's not really happy. Personally, it's the song I want to be listening to when I pass away if it's a death I see coming.
This is fine and sounds good but I don't like it when people screw up the words to a good song. I know I will get criticized for saying that but today I don't really care! 😎😎😁😁
Still not healthy...nobody should promote well he has nice voice and shit but to role model. No
