Aloha!
Since January this year I've been singing this way, annoying my parents LOL! If you don't know how to do it I can explain!
Here's one of my covers so you can get the gist of what I mean. Tell me what you think! It's all me, by the way.

Yes, very annoying. Your parents still allow you in the house? Yes, nice work.

The worst day strumming is better than the best day working.

For those of you who enjoyed that one, here's my latest. It's a little quiet, but I couldn't put any more volume than I already did because I tried and the audio went hot.

I dabble in leo ki'eki'e a little bit & use it in spots on certain songs. I never use it exclusively for a complete song though. I attempt "I Kona" in falsetto but also use my natural voice in spots.

You've done a fine job in such a short period of time, Sonja. Keep practicing & you leo ki'eki'e is going to get better & better. Try searching YouTube for videos of the Abrigo Ohana & look for those that Emily Abrigo sings the lead. She is 17 years old now & I've known the ohana since she was 11. I absolutely love her leo ki'eki'e & she has been singing that way since she was 11. She my favorite current falsetto singer.

BTW there's a member on Taropatch.net named Alex "Alika" Krause; who very visits the site anymore, who has a great in common with you. She is also sight impaired & plays the piano too. She also recorded & shared here, herself singing leo ki'eki'e.

I also seem to remember you mentioning you changed your Taropatch.net username. If you don't mind me asking, what was it before? Just curious in case we crossed paths before & I don't realize it.

No I changed my signature. I had "Me ke aloha pumehana".
Alex "Krauth". I know her! We're friends on Facebook! I also know of the Abrigo 'Ohana. I like them too.
I'm still working on my leo ki'eki'e. It's not perfect, I know, but I just do it for fun.

I noticed I said the wrong lyrics at the end of the "ha'ina" verse. It's supposed to be "mai uwē 'oe". Oh well, I did look at the translation for the mele, and "a huli ho'i mai" fits well too.
