I watch Don Ho singing this beautiful song and I'm back in Hawaii in Honolulu and the year is 1968, my dad had a good year as a stock broker and he took all seven of us kids to Hawaii for a month, we stayed at this huge home on the water at a place called Punaluu, I can still see that beautiful home in my minds eye and all the wonderful memories of it. How I hope the good lord allows us to go back to the happiest times of our lives and relive them.

I know that street, I just got back from this paradise the 2nd time 🏖️🌸💛🌊 I was so happy and then cried 😢too. My late husband and I spent our honeymoon there in ‘98 and my dad too was in the financial services industry and he and my mother made 3 trips there to Honolulu, Maui and the Big Island. They have all passed but the beautiful memories are for eternity. I took my two children and they were in awe with God’s magnificent paradise. 🦜💚🐢🦋

What a beautiful memory

My mom and dad used to sing this song together with a 45 on the turntable when I was just a kid. They have long since passed away. What I would give to hear them sing it one more time. Memories rolling down my cheeks.

For you Nana. You got to meet this man before you passed on. To see that bright smile in that picture of you both is so heart warming. Miss you a lot Nan. Hugs forever. 😊

I grew up with tiny bubbles in 60s and used to dance Hawaiian and tahitian. Today brings a new meaning.

I was lucky to meet him and get a hug and a photo he was kind to the Vietnam soldiers on R&R in Hawaii handsome man...

What a wonderful Hawaiian. He made people feel the islands in his songs.

These wonderful times are no longer- because people don't know how to stand up for their Freedoms- so we've become mind number complaicent creeps- look around- do you see everyone wearing creepy bondage masks (kams?) people don't think for themselves any more. Very sad, i hope society will open their eyes and stand for freedoms. until then- "those wonderful times" are gone for good.

Well, Don Ho may have projected that image, but that was his ACT. He needed to pay for his three ex wives and ten children that financially drained him. So when he was chilling on stage, sipping wine as the tiny bubbles tickled his nose, he was also trying to calculate how much money that gig was going to generate, and praying it was enough to pay some bills. He worried himself right up into heart failure. And less than a week after his heart finally couldn't take anymore, his daughter finally succumbed to the crystal methamphetamine addiction that she had been in the throes of for awhile. And you don't even wanna get started on all his other children's tales of woe. They call it show BUSINESS, and not show FUN, for a reason. It's a business. A job like any other. Sorry to piss in your Cheerios, but that's how it is.

Retro everything, love the feeling. Modern stuff forget the soft sentiment.

My parents loved him, R and R when my Dad got leave from the Vietnam war and my Mom met him in Hawaii , my Dad that is

I remember learning how to do the hula to this song when I was in the 7th grade in the year 68-69.

Nothing is like this wonderful song!

This was like 1968 Hollywood Palace

i hope people never forget this man.

In 1942 my Dad saw A 12 year old Don Ho in Honolulu, he would sing any song to the Sailors for a dime.. We were watching Don sing on tv when my Dad told this to me in 1970,the only war story he ever told..

a true artist....getting the audience singing....

I loved watching the Don Ho Show when I was a kid. I grew up in Montana and his show made me love Hawaii to this day.

Damn, they don't make'em like that anymore

I drooled over him when he appeared on The Brady Bunch. Those shorts! 😍

" eat your heart out. Lawrence" 😂

People from this generation definitely defined what the word "cool" is all about, they were driving around in some of the coolest cars on the planet, rock and roll was at it's finest and everyone seem to be having a good time. My only question is what the Hell happen? I think we all need to chill out and listen to some feel good music again, focus on what's making good news and try to make a difference in our own backyards. Nobody does it quite like Don Ho, I'm picking up my old Martin tenor ukulele tonight and jamming along with this video.

"Eat your heart out Lawrence" @0:19 could he be referring to Lawrence Welk's bubbles in the wine?

The king of Hawaii

my Aunt and Uncle went to a Don Ho show back in the 70's , They said that he was so drunk he could hardly perform and had to cut his set short. I think that was pretty rare though , at least I have never heard that he had a reputation for that kind of thing , although I think it was common for him to perform with a glass of scotch in his hand or on the piano.
