Ironically, to take from this great song, what would Israel think of this remake? Some songs are meant to be heard as it was originally intended for the people to hear. I knew Israel, I loved his music, all in all, he had an awesome (in all its definition of the word), presence about himself whenever he entered a room. This song was poorly done, she [Sarah] even ruined another song I enjoyed when first sung, by the great Andrea Bocelli "Con Ti Partiro"...remakes are never a good thing. Let us hope that this song can just rest like Israel is now doing so.10 years ago

I just returned from Hawaii to Australia with IZ's Facing Future album and this song is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. Don't be hard on Sarah, she honors IZ with this beautiful duet. I am part Polynesian also and IZ's original stirs my soul like no other and I can feel the Hawaiian angst as we are all children of the Pacific. Aloha and share IZ's music with the world. 10 years ago

I must agree to sentaments shared before me... this of most of songs sung by iz IS an NO GO zone! For a mere fact that it is iconic and reknowed for the song of a people, dont make it a song that uses scynths of even worse still belittles the purity of iz' voice!! I know am just a random for NZ, but feel as many others do about this song... it should just have been left as it was. Or do it accousticly like the man of the peoples' voice did it!?10 years ago

Some of the comments on this video are ridiculous. Otherwise, I personally think its very cool that Sarah is bringing the song to a new audience.10 years ago

As a Hawaiian and a hula dancer, you must have the ha, the aloha and the understanding of the song or you dont make the mele. You dont just sing it as a duet cuz it's pretty. Brudda Iz sang for his people and his land. I normally love Sarah's voice but here I say she crossed the line.10 years ago

beautiful! I'm sure Iz (the love in his heart and passion for Hawali'i--) would LOVE this! I'm sure it was approved by Apple, his record co. Hey-- I duet this all the time with Iz in the privacy of my car! haha..No more negatives. Thanks.10 years ago

Wow. Of course I have mixed feelings about this. For one, the song should be untouched by others as a form of respect for IZ. But on the otherhand, as someone that also likes Sarah's music (have seen both perform live) - I am happy that she brings Hawaiian music to a new audience. Think of the mana it can spread. I think it can be a good thing. I'm sure all was done to keep a level of respect there. Speaking as someone who loves Hawaii, the culture and music - I'm glad that others can e10 years ago

This is not a song that should be used as a duet. Only one voice will ever own this song "IZ"10 years ago

great response! the song was actually written by Mickey Ioane - Clayton Kua - Abe Keala and Kawika Crowley - originally titled "Hawaii 77" a year later the "Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau" made this song go to number one in Hawaii and the song helped their fame - IZ was an original member of this group - for years the original lyrics to the chorus have been sang wrong - see Hawaii78 dot com for the history of this song - Aloha!Related Videos
