Oh Holy Night - Benjamin Cross & Willie K

I always say, don’t f’ing bother me with this song unless you’re going to hit the high note. This song is hard. I’m not even a Christian and it gives me total chicken skin. Seriously, this is one of the most beautiful melodies everywhere, and everyone loves it. With that said? This is the best version I’ve ever heard. I might have some bias because Makaha Sons are my good friends (and here you get to see Uncle John Koko. He passed right after my Dad and I miss him every day.) I don’t know Willie K though, and you guys, he nails it. He kills it.

Not to mention the Hawaiian lyrics will leave you in tears.

Please put this song into your ears. You won’t be sorry.

Find the beauty.

Times are difficult. My advice. Find a way to see the beauty in passing days. (quote from the song You Ku'Uipo by Willie K. )

This is the best Hawaiian song ever!

“Long lay the world in sin and error pining  Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth

Loa ke ao mena hewa na lu`ulu`u  Ka waiho ea mai a `olu ka`uhane”

Maui's Beloved Willie K Passed, Won't be Forgotten

Maui’s Beloved Willie K Passed, Won’t be Forgotten

Willie K on the Cover of MauiTime in 2005

It is a sad matter to be faced with this morning in shutdown, one of Maui’s most iconic and passionate musicians, Willie K., has lost his battle with cancer. He has graced the pages of MauiTime too many times to count, won the Maui’s Best Musician category in Best of Maui more than any other artist. His guitar style is legendary. 

We wish his ohana…
