To that one soul reading this Nothing is impossible with GOD. GOD is going to turn your pain into joy!No eyes has seen,no ear has heard,and no mind has imagined what GOD has prepared for you and your family. Tell GOD, "Thank You."
Lost my mother 20 years ago when my last born was 7 months old. So hard not to try to blame him. As humans, we try to find fault with everything. Took a few years to realize that it wasn't his fault. It was his plan all along. At 46, I still cry for her and am reminded daily on how great God is. "For God so loved the world that he gave HIS ONLY begotten son, that whoever believes in him, shall not perish, but have eternal life." John 3:16 That verse keeps me grounded. Reminds me of what was truly given and then taken away.
I’m starting to think reincarnation is prevalent because sheesh Tongi has really hit the nail in every direction except for being 750lbs+ 😭 I love tongi he made me cry afew times during his debut. Touching kindred spirit his energy just flows through his notes it’s so electric. Music is life and keeps a lot of us grounded. Thank you tongi and even israel for planting that seed into Hawaiian culture
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole would be proud of you!!! You made it sound like Iam Tongi instead of IZ. That’s the part he’ll be proud of. You made it your own. You’re representing him, your father Rodney and all the Hawaiians the proper way. Continue both of those beautiful souls legacy young man 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
When I'm listening to anything on TH-cam, I'm often just lounging around on my couch, while my 8-year-old daughter watches her own videos on her iPad. When I play one of your songs, she gets up, lies down next to me, and watches your videos with me. She is as captivated by your voice as I am. You capture the minds and hearts of all ages and for young kids with a short attention span, that isn't easy to do. I hope you never stop singing, because in a world filled with hate, fear, and rage, listening to you puts a certain ease in my mind and comforts my soul. Thank you for that. ❤
SING BROTHER!!! sing for our islands, sing for our people, sing for our freedom. Island whale conservationist here. born raised and now a career. these songs remind me why i still do it. our culture. our people. our reefs. its our HOME. and it lives in our music. 3 million views isn't for nothing my friend. and your other videos cracking half a mil or close. the heart is still there. and you've got it !
Dec 24th will be 2 months ago I lost my wife, the love of my life of 17yrs. We both absolutely love your voice. Every time I hear you sing it brings back all the great memories and hides the pain. Thankyou so very much for being an inspiration for so many to just keep going
Sorry to hear that. I’m so glad to have been on American Idol which helped with my grieving so I’m glad it’s also helping you in some way too. Take it one day at a time brother. Much love ❤️🩹
Makes me feel a strange form of comfort that you... My friend took the time to encourage, comfort and be sympathetic to a stranger. Thank you for being you. 🙏
This one was a hard one to listen to as I lost my father who’s Hawaiian as well. This is his song for many reasons. ❤ I’m so glad everyone is able to listen to your gift and be able to share these moments so thank you 😢
IZ is smiling down on you. You made him proud. I'm so happy you finally did an official video of this. Spectacular! Beautiful! You IZ worthy of doing this song.
💙 This is a beautiful rendition; however, those who have passed and gone to heaven are not looking down on us still here on earth. Thank GOD for this !! I mean ... imagine the embarrassment and disappointment with our frequent choice of actions. It's not biblical for a person to believe any other than God sees us from heaven. Many say it to bring comfort when something special is occurring .. Yet it's simply untrue. 😐
@@mander40101 I'm not exactly sure how you intend for your comment to be interpreted. I am a COMPLETE believer ... in God's Word. The Bible doesn't teach that anyone but God sees us from heaven. To believe so is to be mistaken. Don't tell me you that respect what I think/ wrote when you immediately follow it with derogation. (I understand you're being sarcastic) Good day.
Being in the military and midst of stress, tears, and hardwork, your music and voice gives me relief. I already played this on a loop more than 50 times and my wife keeps asking me if i ever get sick of your voice, and I said no, it’s tongi 😂😂😂
Israel Kamakawiwoʻole would be very proud . You made a perfect song even better. I hear him in your voice. Your father is smiling down at his amazing and talented son . You are a good son and he's very proud of the man you are
My mother would sing this to me when I was little - Tongi... you have a gift beyond heavenly. Thank you for sharing your soul. Thank you for keeping me in a good place and for shedding light on the housing crises in Hawaii. The term "priced out of paradise" has never been more prevalent. My family is struggling on Oahu and I just pray we can come home one day. Mahalo brother! R.I.P. IZ
Our global phenomenon, the magical Iam Tongi. This song will become an Iam Tongi classic, is just one of many more to come. Everybody on Tonga claiming to be Iam's family, lol. Love it !
Beautiful Rendition! Whenever you sing, I feel the Sun's Warmth, Hear the Ocean, Feel the Salty Breeze and See the Miracle of the Rainbow...I appreciate those Notes Mr. Tongi💯‼️🤗 deb in TongiNation, SC🎶 01/10/2024🤩
My father died 2 years ago. I live far from my parents . all my childhood photos were destroyed by the flood disaster. But after hearing the songs and voices sung by Iam Tongi, I was able to recall memories with my parents, especially my father. and my tears will always be there when I hear the song sung by Iam Tongi. papa, I will always miss you..and my mama, I pray God will give you a long life. God bless you, Iam Tongi. you are the best
I was a pretty restless baby and my parents said this song would be the one to always soothe me, and to this day still does. Thank you for this beautiful version and being who you are. Mahalo🤙🏻
What a beautiful rendition of this song! Yesterday my husband and I were in a RV dealership in Eugene, Oregon. I didn’t even notice that music was playing in the background. All of a sudden I heard you singing and in my world everything stopped. Your voice is so iconic! I had to stop, enjoy your song, then could carry on. Thank you for sharing your voice with the world.
Lost my dad in September of 2022, i know your feeling of wait, it passes brother. The life takes its course and you’ll survive this as well. Sending prayers your way
i watched this video of the 2023 where you were in the audition i started crying so hard you have an amazing voice and ik that every time you sing you can hear your dad and i hope every time you hear him hes saying how proud he is of you because your so amazing you have such a kind soul
I am so happy you released.tbis song!!! I couldn't wait. Love every song you have. You are truly an incredible artist with a voice unlike anyone. Rise up and achieve every goal. You are a fabulous talent! Love you!! Yesssaaa!!!!! ❤️🎶
Every year I go to hawaii this is my song Thank you for singing well done 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼♥️♥️♥️♥️ God bless You🙏 and all my Hawaiian ppl Hugs from this Mexican brother from Oakland California

When I have hard and tuff days , I come home and put on your music.. After hearing all my problems, and long day becomes Beauty to my life and ears … Thank you for that … Keep shining brother , and God bless you … YEESSSAHH!!! 🤙🏼

You brought Tears 😭 to my eyes. You have made my day. A Huge Hug 🥰 from me to you. Your number one FAN ALWAYS 😊 LOVE 💕 From: San Antonio, Texas🤠👋❤️

The way you Sing It is so emotional, you Sing with your heart in a Very especific way that i can not express in words here. Its a pleasure here you, greetings from Brazil!
Best version I've heard since brother Iz. And your voice is just so beautiful! He must be proud of you, in Heaven. You continue to be a blessing to the world, Iam.
Iam, you are so talented. I'll never forget when hubby and I first heard your voice! In Pahala. Beautiful voice. We love you!!!! PS your dad is so proud of you Iam and is with you always.
you deserve to be a star, a unique voice, comfortable to hear, your voice makes me stop for a moment looking back at so much that I have gone through. you deserve that golden voice. always blessed
This man is soo talented, I loved watching his journey. The song he did with James Blunt was amazing. He is the modern-day IZ. I can't wait to see the rest of his journey unfold.
Outstanding Iam. Your voice alone is all that is needed for an absolute awesome performance but I submit that the steel guitar adds such an awesome flavor to your music and I can't get over it. Keep this forever, if you don't mind please. You are an absolute blessing to this world we call home.
He has the quality and mark of a great singer. No fluff, no fake sound. I think he would not want to sing a song he honestly does not feel deeply. Love the sound of his amazing voice. 🌹
Here are those little girls that my sister and I once were dancing around in the gardens of my memories. It brings heaven a little closer to me. I can almost feel her. You are a song master my sweet young man.
Don't doubt yourself your voice is so special and everyone loves you never stop singing ! I would listen to you sing my grocery list! Love love love you!
Sound of your voice is over the rainbow! 🌈 your Dad would be so proud of you. Just lost my Aunt & this makes me think of her over the 🌈 stay blessed and keep spreading your love ❤️
Tongi. I lost my father last year, and man, I can say now I can relate to you on what pain feels like. Listening to your voice brings comfort to my life. I hope it does the same for you. Ma'ane'i no ke aloha 🌺 #musictherapy #healing #empathy
This has always been a special song to me, reminding me of my childhood and simpler , happy times. You make this song even more special . You have a gift of bringing serene joy to everyone. Thank you .
Iz would be so proud! I’m not comparing you to him at all just to put that out there. You’re your own artist and have your own style. I just know he’d be so happy to see another Hawaiian singer that can really put us on the world stage💯
Omg! So beautiful. So sweet. This song is very special to me. What you did with it was extraordinary! I can't wait to hear what you sing next. Thank you for sharing your wonderful gift.❤❤❤❤
I love this version so much. Instant tears with memories of loved ones who have passed away. Thank you Iam for your beautiful gift of comforting voice and music ❤
I love this kid his voice is amazing and I cry when he first audition on American idol! The songs he sing especially his voice it touch my heart so I can’t help it but cry, especially losing his dad too so happy for him❤
This was my mother’s favourite song when sung by Izzy. She had so much hardship in her life but never put that burden on anyone else. I was holding her hand the day she slipped away from us and every time I hear this song I wish I could hold her hand again. Iam, you are a gift to the world. Keep singing son.
A duo with Iz would have been out of this world.... Keep up the great work...
No doubt
To that one soul reading this Nothing is impossible with GOD. GOD is going to turn your pain into joy!No eyes has seen,no ear has heard,and no mind has imagined what GOD has prepared for you and your family. Tell GOD, "Thank You."

That was beautiful singing since we lost original singer Israel Kamakawiwo’ole back in 1994

IZ voice has magic, but you have it too. Such soul wrenching in all positive way that I cant even explain how its possible.
I found you from a friend but your voice calms me when I'm mad, overwhelmed, or stressed... Thank you you beautiful man ❤️😍🫶 and thank you ❤️
You're a star, my young brother. Your dad is watching down on you and is so proud of you. Keep on keeping on.
I love that I can understand every word he sings. He killed it. I can't do better.
He has the quality and mark of a great singer. No fluff, no fake sound. I think he would not want to sing a song he honestly does not feel deeply. Love the sound of his amazing voice. 🌹
Smooooth as silk. Your voice is a balm for the soul!!! Just fantastic!
Here are those little girls that my sister and I once were dancing around in the gardens of my memories. It brings heaven a little closer to me. I can almost feel her. You are a song master my sweet young man.
Such a beautiful voice and soul!! your father is beyond proud of you in heaven❤️

Tongi. I lost my father last year, and man, I can say now I can relate to you on what pain feels like. Listening to your voice brings comfort to my life. I hope it does the same for you. Ma'ane'i no ke aloha 🌺 #musictherapy #healing #empathy

Iz would be so proud! I’m not comparing you to him at all just to put that out there. You’re your own artist and have your own style. I just know he’d be so happy to see another Hawaiian singer that can really put us on the world stage💯

Ive been waiting for you to cover this since i heard you on American idol. Mr. Kamakawiwoʻole would be proud!
❤️💔❤️🩹
This was my mother’s favourite song when sung by Izzy. She had so much hardship in her life but never put that burden on anyone else. I was holding her hand the day she slipped away from us and every time I hear this song I wish I could hold her hand again. Iam, you are a gift to the world. Keep singing son.
I am going through a lot and I know what you are talking about
