    I love his music especially the Hawaiian songs. 🔥🔥 always blasting it at work here in American Samoa and people look at me like I'm weird. Lol. Oh well.

    This is why JT transcends and yet stays true to his Hawaiian roots. Meliá meaning the beauty of the baby expressed as plumeria. The beauty of this song is the reach beyond Hawai’i to the other artistry of many nations as expressed in both word and music. My Hawaiian brother is a true artist in every sense of the word and this mele proves it even more so every time I listen. The next time you are on the Big Island JT, sing this mele for all of us🌴🌴🌈

    I'm very impressive about the lyrics in the Hawaiian's language. It's been said in my country that we need to be careful about the meaning of the lyrics when we are singing. But all the lyrics in the Hawaiian's language speak us of love, friendship, family, and most of all: the beauty of this great island, a little peace of heaven in the earth. Mahalo to all the Hawaiian's people.

    So, I kinda wanted make a guess, as to what the meaning of the song is about. I wanna say that the singer is singing about a beautiful girl named Melia, right? And he's comparing her beauty to every flower on the island, and her grace to the gently flowing wind. He wants to cherish her forever and hold her dear.
    If I got it wrong I'm sorry, I like to interpret different songs based on the things I see in the video. I absolutely lived this one too. It brought a sense of peace to me.

I miss Hawaii everytime I hear your music and see these great videos. So glad I called my Mom today to wish her Happy Mother's Day - she also loves your music. Big hugs of aloha from Oregon.
