They stole my name!!!!!!!!    ;)

 

Actually when I started my account I wanted ByeBye...as in bye,bye, you're dead, but it was taken so I added a third Bye.  Since Tanki was just a little diversion game it didn't matter much...now it's a couple of years later and I'm a verified TO junkie...so much so that I even put up with MatchMaking...yuck.

 

It's an OK song, but it's hard to desperate the boy-bandness of it from the tune :)

From Kane's tears of joy when he saw Hawaii, was born Poli'ahu, the beautiful white mantled kupua of snow and compassion. This song is of her heartbreak and longing when Aiwohi left her alone and in sadness on her home of Mauna Kea. 

 

I had to feed my dream, so I deleted this post and quoted it further on with an added a picture in the spoiler.  It feels more complete now.  I hope you enjoy this lovely song from my previous home, Hawaii.

proper irish music

I have a warm fuzzy for Gaelic Storm. I went pub crawling with a couple of guys from this band!  We all started at an after concert party, but devolved into enibriated antics at a couple of local Irish pubs. They played some tunes and I played bones with them...well, spoons really since I didn't have my bones with me.  It was great fun and a very memorable night.

I hope you can all take the time to listen to this pretty and very sweet song.  It really is quite lovely.

Kane - the Father of Life
kupua - demi-god/godess 
Aiwohi - kupua of the island of Kaua'i
Mauna Kea - dormant snow capped volcano
 
When I lived in Hawaii, I used to tell stories of Poli'ahu and Pele (godess of the volcanos) along with other dieties of Hawaii Nei.  I would sing this song to folks on my tours to get them in a relaxed and receptive mood.  Teresa Bright's version is by far the very best...full of pathos and honey. 
 
Noho me ka hau’oli  :)
 
 
 
Writing this and listening to this song makes me miss Hawaii...a lot...sniff, sniff.  Here are some pictures of Mauna Kea...see if you can find Poli'ahu in them as you listen to this song...I see her and she is looking at our five new dwarf planets from her snowy home.

I had a dream that I forgot something in this post.  I was going to just let it go but it has been bothering me so I added it as the last picture in the spoiler.  I hope you have the time to look at the pictures as you listen to this song.  It is a very sweet song of love and longing.
