I want to take video of Unko Paul for You Tube of him doing Puamana maybe with Auntie singing. But I do not sing so good like you oddah guyz. I can sing it passably well in taro patch. He no likes it in Taro Patch, said he cannot sing it in Taro Patch, low octave is too low, he no can reach, the high octave is too high.

He said can capo and get B flat.

Is there a compromise for both of us? See, I learned to sing it the way I learned to sing it. I am not talented enough of a singer to be able to croak out anything other than what I can croak out.

Az y hahd.

Wanda, can you stretch up a little by having Paul play up a half-step, then another half till you're almost there? (This is sounding like a dance.)

Or can he do high harmony for some of the low parts and still play in G for you?
