Came straight here right after Idol and Iam Tongi version . Such a perfect song as a thank-you to Hawaii. I also love how he highlights local artists New fan 👏 👏 👏 👏
Not local artists, but legends of Polynesian music. These our our rockstars, spawnbreezie, maoli covers. kolohe kai's song he played came out when iam was like 4-5 years old. It's a classic not a local guy on the come up, A legend
I love this Jawaiian jam by Kolohe Kai and Iam Tongi wen put us all on da map by jammin' Cool Down on da big stage of American Idol! Chee Hooo! Much Mahalo And Alofa to Kolohe Kai & Iam Tongi for your talented gift of music to our Islands and around the globe! Keep bringing it on home, my Braddas!
Mahalo IAM TONGI for singing this well loved local island reggae song on AI...and giving it a much needed attention on a National stage. it was great to see the judges & the whole audience rocking to the beat. I can only imagine how excited Roman De Peralta & Kolohe Kai was super stoked that you sang their big hit. ...Congrats on winning AI....you're Awesome🤙🏼
That’s cool! Back when i was little and now my Guam family would play this most of the time but when we went to the liberations and parties it was so much fun hearing this song and it never gets old!
This song is beautiful. First time in oahu I heard this. My sons first time snorkeling and seeing his first turtle @ sharks cove by food land he heard this song. Forever will Kolohe kai live in our hearts. Cheers from Texas!
Just discovered this song & im now obsessed. I have been traveling in the Philippines and someone played this on guitar while we were sat looking out at the ocean just a few meters in front of us. Core memory now from this trip.
Brah, was just saying to my husband before I knew Iam sang this song that Iam’s music does to people what this song does to people when they’re not in Hawaii… makes um long for the beach and the sand. Then my husband told me Iam sang this…. I just watched it and I just watched Kolohe Kai’s Roman De Peralta react to Iam singing his song. SOOO special! Iat so awesome that Iam is bringing this song to the world. What a timeless classic.

It’s 2020 and I heard this song first from a former friend who turned out to be toxic but this song vibes with my soul. I’m a born swimmer and I’ll never give up on the water

[Verse 1:]
Its another firey afternoon (so hot, so hot)
Hotter than the month of June
So we should go beach now (cool down)
cool down where the waters right
Lets grab our boards and run, run, run, run
Run to the nearest shore
School pau, lets go now
And hele out the door
[Chorus x2:]
The waves is on fire, the day is getting hot
this is my desire, the one to hit the spot
Cool down
The waters looking nice and blue (so blue, so blue)
Bluer than the clearest sky
And the waves are fire’en getting higher and
better even as we speak
Don’t you melt the sun, sun, sun, sun,
Sun is hotter than ever before
So lets ride, ride
Surf and ride some more
[Chorus x2]
All you divers well go and get your gear
And all you riders well now surf with no more fear
‘Cause it’s a hot day, everybody
shoulda go, shoulda go, shoulda go and cool off yeah
All you paddlers well a go and get your crew
And everybody else you know what to do
Go grab your Ohana its so nice outside
We’re living in Hawaii with Aloha and pride yeah
[Chorus x3]
Ric Martinez Mahalo
