Aloha käkou,
Okay, I *know* I don't have this one in my livingroom. 
Reid and I heard a beautiful version of what I think was the Kaho'olawe song (from the lyrics) on the radio. I'm not sure of the exact title, either. (Could be just Kaho`olawe) Once again, no info from the dj.
It was a woman singing – a warm, beautiful, lyrical voice – with a man putting in some harmony behind her. It was a fairly long song, with lyrics mentioning Kaho'olawe and Kanaloa, and talking about the lifestyle of the people who (once) lived there.
Auntie Maria is working on her sound clip problem (server-DSL problems), but for now it isn't working. Anyway, a search there suggests it might be Steve Ma`i`i and Teresa Bright, since all the other artists that came up are male....
Any thoughts, anyone?
Once again, Mahalo for your Kokua!
Aloha,
Sarah

Did you make sure you checked behind the sofa? :)
Anjani Thomas did a duet with Henry Kapono called 'Kanaloa'.
Here are some lyrics:
Kanaloa, Kahikimoe
Kanaloa, Kahikimoe
ua ala hou mai nei makou
(we have awakened on this place)
me ke aloha Kaho'olawe
(you are cherished, Kaho'olawe)
If that doesn't ring a bell, you can find a Real clip at http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/anjani and lyrics at http://www.anjani-music.com/ (under music, under the album called Anjali).
Cheers!

Man, Greg, you are *good*! Encyclopedic music memory - whoa...
I just listened to that clip and I am 95% certain that it is the *one*. In any case, it is gorgeous music and lyrics and we *will* get the recording. Sarah has a better memory (better everything, in fact) than I do, so she will know for absolute sure.
You are a handy guy to have around :-)

 That's IT!!!
Oh, Mahalo, e Greg! That's IT!!
ooooooooo, chickenskin!!
You guys are too good. I never thought to search for Kanaloa. And, I had forgotten that part of what caught our ears was there are some slack key "references' worked into the instrumental parts.... Very nice.
I am so happy....now, I am going to go buy one CD!
me ka mahalo a nui loa!

Aloha Kevin,
Well, we sure are Lucky! ...to find two songs in two days! All with the help of the taropatch 'ohana! (Just think, 365 days in a year....365 songs?? )
"Kanaloa" is great...and very moving. (I'll be really "lucky" if I ever learn to sing this one!)
me ke aloha,
Sarah |

Kevin, my friend, you *know* I have no talent. I think Ikaika does the best backups Sarah could wish for. He was so good singing behind her (and all the other musical stuff, too) at the Festival.
You know, I was at the side of the stage with Sarah while you guys were doing the first two numbers and Owana was on deck, standing with us. She asked in an amazed voice, "Who is playing that?" (Meaning, who is doing such a nice job?) When I said, "Ikaika." She said "What, That little boy?" I broke up laughing, 'cause she still thought of Ikaika as a child prodigy. Which he was, but he is a big guy now, and better all the time.
Back to Kanaloa: Sarah will have to multitrack or rearrange it.

To tell the truth, I'm just good at finding stuff on the Internet. I never heard of Anjani or the song before. Now if I could find a job (looking for two years) and all my missing socks (looking for 35 years), I'd really be set. :)
Just happy to contribute LOL
Okole maluna!

| Do what I do...buy all your socks in the same make, color, and style. That way you never have more than one unmatched sock. |

My goal is to be able to play as well as people think I can. |
