I will be competing as the soloist in a hula competition in September. My choice mele is Nohili E. I would appreciate it if you would share with me your mana'o about this song. Any kaona behind it so that I will be able to perform this mele with much aloha for the composer and what was she thinking when she composed this mele. Mahalo!!! |

| THIS SONG IS A VERY SPECIAL SONG TO MY HEART. IN 1994 I WAS ENROLLED IN COLLEDGE AT WINDWARD COMMUNITY COLLEGE AND IT WAS TOUGH WORKING FULL TIME AT CASTLE MEDICAL CENTER AND HOLDING DOWN A FULL TIME ACEDEMIC SHEDULE, HOWEVER I DID HAVE FUN TIMES... THE DRAMA COURSE I TOOK WAS DESIGNED TO REMOVE THE CRIPLING SHYNESS THAT I AND MOST OF THE STUDENTS EXPERIENCED. FOR OUR FINAL EXAM OVER 50% OF OUR OVERALL GRADE EACH STUDENT WAS REQUIRED TO SING IN FRONT OF THE ENTIRE CLASS, {ACAPELLA } A SONG OF OUR CHOICE. WOOOOOOOOOOOW! I WAS SO NERVOUS AND THE SONG I CHOSE WAS MY FAVORITE AT THE TIME, NOHILI E BY THE MAKAHA SONS OF NI'IHAU I SANG THAT SONG IN FRONT OF MY WHOLE CLASS AND SINCE THAT TIME I HAVE CONNECTED THAT SONG TO A TIME IN MY LIFE IN WHICH I WAS ABLE TO ACHIEVE GREATNESS IN A SMALL ROOM! I HAVE ALSO PERFECTED THAT SONG AND TO THIS DAY IT REMAINS THE ONLY ACAPELLA SONG I CHOOSE TO SING FOR ANYONE! GOD BLESS IZ AND ALL HAWAIIAN MUSIC! MAHALO! |
