I really like the song "Kealohalani", by George Huddy, which Maunalua sings on their album "Kuleana". It's a great falsetto tune. Does anyone know where I might find the words? I've looked all over... Jesse Tinsley
I'm not sure if you're thinking of "Kahealani" by Alice Fredlund. I found it on www.huapala.org (a great site for Hawaiian lyrics!). I agree too that it is a wonderful falsetto tune!
"Kealohalani" is such a beautiful song -- and it's wonderful that Maunalua "resurrected" this song, which hadn't been recorded since Hui `Ohana released their 1973 vinyl (amazing!).
You might be able to get the lyrics directly from Maunalua, via their website: http://www.maunalua.com

Oops! You can tell I was operating on low batteries at 1am. Yes, they are two different tunes and good ones too. Good luck on finding the lyrics (because I can't either)!
