- For those of you who only know about this song through Pearl Jam's truncated tribute, Brudda Israel Kamakawiwo'ole and the Makaha Sons of Niihau break it down so thoroughly, that even a haole like you will understand its true meaning.
Ua mau ke ea o ka `âina i ka pono `o Hawai'i
When I listen to this song it bring me to tears and I feel so sad how our land was taken for us...
I remember listening to them play this song at Hank's Place when it first came out. Skippy and Iz will always be in my memories.
You have visually represented this most spiritual song.

Hawaii needs to be a free country and not a star on some other country's flag ! I've never been there but I think Hawaii must be free ! This song is about the anguish of a conquered people. May they once again be free.
And I cry,
No be ta Live song ! True talking story song ! Ohow wonderful IZ Is & WAS !! remember him in his lasT CONCERT IN LAS VEGAS !! BACK in 1996 July At the Fremont Hotel ! Then went to the CAL 4 Kau Kau ! Notthing mo betta then chow down with Bra da IZ And bra da Ania lou !! Much ALOHA !
@planecrazy644 He mea iki. I'm just a haole trying to pay my respects and condolences to the Hawaiian people.
just remember when you buy a Honolulu Advertiser you put money in the pocket of the family who betrayed our queen, our aina, our ohana and most importantly our keiki
WAIKIKI OAHU how u get braddah izs voice i like dis version
"Haole" is not a color, nor a nationality.. it is an attitude. Some with pale skin, like myself, carry hearts that are Hawaiian. We feel the aina, we feel the pain of the Kanaka, they are our brothers and sisters.
Thnx for sharing, This song tells me a story of a history that is not known to many throughout the world, heaps of Aroha to our Kanaka Maoli brothers and sisters of the Kingdom of Hawaii.
Hawaiian music,prayer,culture, people,this is protocol acknowledging that we are all one,how beautiful this song is.
@808Surfaboi This song and the talk are from the "Hank's Place Presents: Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau Live" CD.
can't beat any Hawaiin's Music Cuz We get IZ in our Corner ! Last concert was Line at freemont hotel las Vegas 1996 august ! was totaly awesome ! then over to the CAL For Kau Kau ! With bra da Iz >Bra da Mel > Bra da ANIALOU ANIA What a Great Night !! Was Like Yesterday ! aloha no ! aloha oi !
I wonder that as well! I love this song!
@joepod It is Bruddah IZ who speaks/sings throughout the song. Aloha oe
Hauntingly beautiful...
just for clarity on the word haole .... it means foreigner. when i use the word haole ,i usualy say po`e haole.... foreign people who are not from this aina. ke aloha no
"Peacefully changed the direction of the island?" "Peacefully?" Really? Have you forgotten the injustices/indignities suffered by Queen Lili'uokalani & her supporters?
@Shaysailor Use the system that stole your freedom in the first place? That works about as well as asking your kidnapper to set you free.
Still, if an Egypt like grab for freedom could happen anywhere in America, it would be Hawaii.
nothing betta Then hearing bra da Iz And Bra Da Mel n&Bra da Anialou ania At the Freemont Las Vegas !! Then going to the CAL For KAU KAU ! WHAT AGREAT NIGHT To spend With All THe Ohana ! ALOha NO ! ALOHA OI !
By who's authority does anybody own anything?
byGod who gave the hawaiian theirs land, UFA.
took? Kuleana... No one can buy unless someone, the owner sells! Auwe! Modern world, kids need jobs, if not they end up in Halawa,
If someone is mean, or gives you da hana ino, love them. Smile, look them in the eye, "malama kou loko maika'i aikane". I am one the few, not Haole, but Kane Ke'o ke'o, that can read, write, and speak Haw'n. I learned it from a 90 yer old Kane in the 80's Everyday we spoke. The Alzheimer got worse, and I translated for his ohana. No hana ino, malama pono:)
E kaumaha au......e ola mau ia kanaka maoli!!
Loa'a ke aloha 'aina?
He hawai'i 'oe. He haole au. He mau kanaka kakou.
He waiwai nui ka lokahi!
@joepod no I spent some time reading some comments made regarding Iz and "haoles" and was commenting on a few I couldnt find when I decided to write. I noticed that you said you werent hawaiian.
That's actually Skippy Kamakawiwo'ole speaking.. Not IZ. RIP Kamakawiwo'ole brothers.
:)
I'm beginning to understand that someone has to pick up the torch.
someone . . .
Never said it was Israel speaking.
I don't understand why Hawaii is a part of the USA. I can get to foreign countries faster. I think it's sad that Hawaii was taken over, but if not for our military it would probably be a third world country. The majority of the people in Hawaii are very poor. It's too late to give them back their island now. It's ruined with high rises, tourism, and traffic. It's still very beautiful. This song touches my heart and makes me sad.
haole is what I am according to some Hawaiians. I am caucasian but feel for the people of Hawaiian. They did not know the true meaning of hypocites when the plantation owners were in their mists. They trusted because they thought that the Christians were honest (im Christian) some give Christians a bad name. They were duped by slick, smooth talking, GREEDY people. And for this I am so sorry. We took a country and made it part of ours. But visited big island and fell in love.
@hawaiiansouljah Mahalo plenty for the clarification. Does that mean that Skippy is the one talking throughout the album?
Read my description and comments again and tell me where I "presume to speak for Hawaiians", because I believe that I never did such a thing.
I posted a song of HAWAIIANS speaking for the Hawaiians.

Когда англичане открыли Гавайи, коренное полинезийское население уменьшилось с 300 000 до 3000 от болезней, завезенных европейцами. Затем Гавайи были силой захвачены США. После этого туда завезли китайцев, японцев и филипинцев. Желаю гавайцам свободы от любого государства и иметь собственную, свободную страну!

MAHALO
KILLAH BRAH!!! IZ LIVES!! And what the HELL is a Pearl Jam?
what is an haole?
@quick225silver Are you talking to me? Because I'm not Hawaiian at all, and I am lumping myself in with the rest of the haole who took their country away from the Hawaiians. At least I am offering my sincere apology.
a Haole, non Hawaiian...but has come to mean a white person. I never hear a Japanese or Chinese person called a Haole....without breath...whatever that means....
Japanese makes up more of their tourism than white haoles. I lived there for four years. They really don't calls us Haoles out of kindness, most of them do not like us. They treat you really well when you are a tourist because we give them money. I have vacationed there twice after moving, and it will always hold a special place in my heart. It was the best time of my life and my daughter was born there. The people of Hawaii aren't so friendly when you live there.
Because I am a member of another ethnic minority. And I recognize liberal guilt when I see it or read it. Your phrase "the rest of the haole who took their country away from the Hawaiians" is fraught with liberal guilt. It would have been better and been more respectful if you had simply kept quiet.
