2021 Miss Aloha Hula ʻAuana Performance | Makaʻala Kahikinaokalālani Victoria Perry

Eia nō ʻo Makaʻala Kahikinaokalālani Victoria Perry, he ʻōlapa no Ke Kai o Kahiki ma lalo o kona makuakāne ʻo Kumu Hula Laʻakea Perry. Here is Makaʻala Kahikinaokalālani Victoria Perry, a dancer for Ke Kai o Kahiki under the direction of her father, Kumu Hula Laʻakea Perry.
“Mī Nei” was composed by Charles E. King and is an interpretative hula that poses the question...How About Me? The words tell the story of someone seeking the affection of the one they desire while describing their lovely features.
The most unique feature of this mele is that the composer wrote the song for the hula dancer to sing while they dance it. Here Makaʻala attracts the attention of the object of her affection with her words and hula expressing “Ahahana lilo ʻoe, lilo iā mī nei” ... “Aha! You are taken, taken by me.”
