Wow! As a Proud Aunty of Josh and a Proud Daughter of a MOTHER who served in the ARMY! 😉 Josh's Hawaiian Aunty Beautifully done! Mahalo nui loa! Josh and my Mother-in-law and the entire Tatofi Ohana thanks you!
I clicked bc I was like "no way they can do this justice and will prob mispronounce tons"... I was excitingly proven wrong. How beautiful this rendition of my fave song. Much Aloha.
C'est tellement beau que j'ai la chaire de poule partout. Delicious shivers all over my skin. My soul understands the words that my simple head cannot.
i strongly recommend you become "professional musicians" and get out of profession of being in Military. You are in the army volunteerly right, ?, Your were NOT DRAFTED ?, like back with my generation, the boomers.
This is super cringey. This is cultural appropriation. I hope Josh Tatofi is getting paid for this. I love this song, and They butchered it. They could have gotten a Hawaiian to sing this song with all the poverty drafting that they do in our communities. With that being said Demilitarize Hawaiʻi and Oceania. Stop bombing and live fire training Hawaiian sacred sites.
I get you Punahele, I too am proud Kanaka Ma'oli. Our people very exacting and protective when our music is performed by others. And we have our issues with the military occupation of our lands as well. We do not want our beautiful culture and aina exploited. However, in this case I sense that the Army band put the work in to be as accurate with proper enunciation and intent as they could, and I feel their rendition was done with much care and respect.
I don't know. I think she did a fairly good job. Not sure how I feel about culture appropriation when Josh Tatofi is Tongan, not Hawaiian, despite being raised in Hawaii.

Josh Tatofi would be proud. Spread the Hawaiian Aloha. This such a beautiful song he wrote for his grandmother. Her favorite flower, gardenia.
They perform with such passion. It would be nice to have a duet session w/Josh Tatofi and the US Army Band.

Nice but vacate Pohakuloa and all other sacred sites across the islands.
Chicken skin!!!
Cultural appropriation at its finest 💯🤙
More examples of how people wear masks just to be compliant, not because they think it's safer.
Military, no choice
Why masks ? Its time to stop this nonsense. Beautiful performance.
Military said so
Wait…..what is going on here? The US ran the Hawaiian kingdom out? What? Maybe if this is on the grounds of saying we are sorry then ok but……what?
i strongly recommend you become "professional musicians" and get out of profession of being in Military. You are in the army volunteerly right, ?, Your were NOT DRAFTED ?, like back with my generation, the boomers.

She’s probably from here yet you’re hating probably cause she’s haole
