Bless’ed LOVE !!!! I get some mo Hawai’i Action,,, just click dakine where it says MAKDOE
This video kills me everytime I see it. That part that Iz actually sheds a tear sends me into uncontrollable sobs.
“No matter Wat color you yellow, blk, pink, orange , purple” everyone should listen to that and now im 13 years old and i love your songs. they make me feel so happy to be a Hawaiian. also “one race the human” that is the truth….. LONG LIVE BRADDAH IZ
whenever he says “Ua Mau Ke Ea O Ka Aina I Ka Pono” I get mean goosebumps from the power in his voice!
I wish I could have met him when he was still alive. This video makes me feel like I was on the beach that day this was recorded. Amazing man, amazing music, glad I do live in Hawaii.
this song sends chills thru my body every time i hear it. I love Hawaii, i miss Hawaii, hope the Hawaiian Culture lives on and this comes from one haole who had the fortunate luck of living in Hawaii for 9 yrs…. a part of my life I’ll never forget and hope never do forget
thanks to UFC and BJ Penn, ive heard this song and this gr8 man, weird how you stumble on beautiful things in life from time to time
im amazed how little vidio there is of this guy , all seems to come from one gig on the beach ‘ish……. wish there was more. a great man ……..
That was so touching, the white man sure messed up such a beautiful land.. americans turned this into an attraction, how sick. i wish no one altered with Hawaii, just imagine how more beautiful it wouldve been. i wish i could go back in time to see what it use to look like.
If that don’t send chills up your spine, you are outta touch
chicken skin
This man and his voice were GREAT, and I am always touched by his voice. SPECIAL. Thank you.
@ABacher80 very very nice, the now guardian angel of the Islands, one of the most beautiful songs, and so transversal to the predicament of the States, my God guide us, peace btravlnagin
Life of the Land is Perpetuated in Righteousness.

Today he would have been 51 years young….Today he lives forever in our hearts..his music and message … so few that have touched so many hearts..He was an angel to be sure. His music never gets old..his message is forever calling to us all to remember we are one and to love one another…
cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee whoooooooooooooooooooo ua mau ke ea oka aina ika pono
This is in Miloli’i on the island of hawaii, after the tsunami had struck the village and killed many.
“One race, brah. The human.” Words of true wisdom. :,( RIP, IZ
beautiful song Iz is a king letting his mana flow to all of hawaii and to me here in oregon. his message is love, all you please remember your ohana like when you had big family get togethers . dont let your aloha die we will all have our islands back living pono if not in this live it will be in the next, Iz will sing for us again.
Oh what a night hear in cold and rainy Wisconsin- and I am blessed to be listening to the greatest Hawaiian singer of all time- I can not wait to once again travel to the Islands and listen to IZ as we drive along the ocean and sit on the sand.
May all people come to know the love and passion he had for life and truly was what he was born to be a beautiful human being !
I belive in angels – his name is iz. such a wounderful voice…. I only wish others could sing like him… such a pity he is no longer with us… bruda iz you are always with me in my car, in my home…every time I play you…. love for ever A…
