    ALOHA!! Wow.... SO thrilled to hear this song done by one of my favorite musicians in Hawaii. Looks like this was filmed in Kapiolani Park in Waikiki. I used to live just down the road! I lived in Hawaii for more than 13 years, just moved to Costa Rica a couple years ago, and John Cruz was always a special highlight when I could go see him play. He has a HUGE HEART OF GOLD, which you can hear the passion in his voice! I am so happy to see John Cruz as part of Playing for Change. And I hope to meet him again soon! Much LOVE and ALOHA to you John... and all at Playing for Change!! 🌈🌺🎶

    Peter Kruse that’s cool. I was listening to “island music” on a satellite music channel and I loved the heck out of Island style. I only knew of the live version. Learned it by heart and way later found out why the live version sounds like Jackson Brown and Jack Johnson😂 I love this guy.!
