  • I went through all the behind-the-scene videos and extras and got all the hula dance references that the animators traced over!! I love Lilo and Stitch and I've always wanted to see He Mele No Lilo's reference videos -- this is as close as we'll probably ever get :)

    What makes this movie so special, is the fact that the animators took time to make each girl unique and special and also use the true dance

      @@Pithuahua13Hehe of course not! They changed some things other than the hair! Like the skin tones…in the very beginning the girls facial features (or how ever you say it) are also different! You just gotta look veryyyy closelyyyy also from my over analyzing it seems that they also changed their bodies aswell…but yknow just maybe!

    1:35 I am mesmerised by the smoothness of the footwork at this part. It’s not a bunch of steps which would’ve been fije but might look a little clunky (i’ve seen a cover do it) but it’s such a smooth fluid shuffle. I dunno, I just like how effortless it looks.
    Also, movie notice. I noticed that Lilo’s spot is meant to be the centre of the kids. Being centre probably means she’s actually the best dancer of them all and Lilo knows it too. She seamlessly joins in even though she was late and she looks like she is having the most fun out of all of them.

      Maybe that explains why her teacher was so tolerant of her shenanigans, as well as because he felt sympathy for the poor girl and her grief. Could also explain how she dealt with grief, which is through dance. But yeah I always thought Lilo was the best dancer since she gives her all in every dance. Maybe that is why the other girls disliked her, not just due to her being a different girl in personality but also due to envy...

    A reminder that they animated this BY HAND. They could've rotoscoped it, but they didn't want it to look how rotoscoping always looks. So they animated it by hand.

    Lyrics in English
    Greatest Thanks To Her Majesty
    The Queen Of Hawaii
    Stands At The Crown Of The Islands
    The Tallest Of Rainbows
    The Work Of Passing Love
    Beams Of Colours Unrivalled
    Along With The Gently Flowing Rains
    Look At The Breaking Dawn
    In The Heavenly Skies
    From The Vastness Of Hawaii To Kauai
    The Beauty Is Revealed
    Kalakaua Is His Name
    The Flower That Never Fades In The Sun
    The Flower Blooms On The Mountain
    The High Hill Of Mauna Kea
    Glowing White Is Kilauea
    Illuminating The Sacred Woman
    Atop Uwekahuna
    Is The Sacred Cliff Of Ka'auea
    Raise Up The King Of Birdcatchers
    To Adorn Him In The Feathers Of The Mamo
    The Beautiful Flower Of Hawaii
    O Kalakaua Is His Name
    Raise Up The King Of Birdcatchers
    To Adorn Him In The Feathers Of The Mamo
    The Beautiful Flower Of Hawaii
    O Kalakaua Is His Name
    Greatest Thanks To Her Majesty
    The Queen Of Hawaii
    Stands At The Crown Of The Islands
    Raise Up The King Of Birdcatchers
    To Adorn Him In The Feathers Of The Mamo
    The Beautiful Flower Of Hawaii
    O Kalakaua Is His Name
    A Namesong For Our Chief Kalakaua
    Cast Forth!

    E nānā nā maka i ke ao malama (I ka lani malama)
    Mai Hawaiʻi ākea i Kauaʻi (Hōʻike mai ana lā i ka nani)
    ʻO Kalākaua he inoa
    ʻO ka pua maeʻole i ka lā
    Ka pua maila i ka mauna
    I ke kuahiwi ʻo Mauna Kea
    Ke ʻā maila i Kīlauea
    Mālamalama i Wahinekapu
    A ka luna o Uwēkahuna
    I ka pali kapu o Kaʻauea
    Ea mai ke aliʻi kia manu
    Ua wehi ka hulu o ka mamo
