Average Rating: Rating: - The legend The myth The man The haunting voice...Braddah IZ I am a hawaiian and hawaii born and bred islander, I am blessed by the fact that my parents brought me up with hawaiian music but most of all the late great Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwo'ole. The day that shocked hawaii I was out and about with my family when my father stoppped at a gas station as he came out of the gas station a newpaper in his hand and a heartbroken look on his face..." what's the matter daddy" he handed me the paper and i started to cry there it was "Braddah Iz passed away at the age of 38 in his sleep last night" I couldn't beileve it such a beautiful voice silenced he will never make another record.But just to have had Braddah Iz on this earth for just this short time to hear the music with and without the makaha sons of Niihau is truly magical..so his music lives on. I've read all these amazing reviews of Braddah IZ...I am happy and touched that so many people have been touched by his music. Unforunately i didn't know braddah iz but in a way all us hawaii born islanders always seem to truly know braddah Iz, his music touched us all. to understand how huge Braddah Iz was he is still mourned and celebrated in hawaii and his music is still played constantly on the radio.The day of his birth and passing is celebrated like a national holiday. When you listen to any of the LATE and GREAT Israel Kamakwiwo'Ole's cds..you will hear one the most beauitful voices god ever put on this earth. But when you look at this man ,this giant man with this amazing angel like voice you will be blown away. god gave this late singer the voice of angel. a voice that must have been blessed and touched by god himself and it was...the songs , music and lyrics will leave you speechless and breathless ..his voice and the way he delivers the songs with that teardrop in his vocal chord...will send chills up and down your spine..any of this mans cds is excellent and it is a must of anyone who wants to get a cd that reflects the spirit of islands this man , this legend was the spirit of hawaii, BRADDAH IS WAS AND STILL IS HAWAII. even thou IZ passed away some time ago his voice his music his legend still lives is the islands thru his voice and music.his voice alone will leave you with a tear in your eyes... buy any one of his cds..trust me it's worth it...also braddah iz was with a hawaiian group called Makaha sons of Niihau pick up those cs as well, and let the memory of Braddah IZ and his music live on for the future generations to hear and love Rating: - He will be missed I first heard Bruddah IZ (Brother to the English speaking community) play live in 1991 and was still living in Hawaii when he passed years later. I loved his style of Hawaiian music and his dedication to the Hawaiian Yokozuna's in Japan's Sumo wrestling in 'Yokozuna.' He sings from the heart about his beloved Hawaii and the Hawaiian people, and he can do this in both Hawaiian and English. He will be missed dearly. Rating: - BRUDDAH IZ DOES IT AGAIN!! Is there no end to this giant's majesty and magic with the new hawaiian music?? Every piece of music Israel has recorded goes right to the hear of the matter--the heart of the listener!! His voice, coupled with his presentation style easily captivates the listener, taking them deeper into what must be the most beautiful soul ever to record music. In Dis Life, the song, speaks to the heart of any person who has ever loved somoeone. The other songs, both traditional and original, let the Bruddah talk to us through the mastery of his art. I met this man while living in Hawaii, and have been in awe of that which he sang ever since. Buy this CD, sit back, turn on a water fountain for the sounds of the sea, and drift off to the world of Bruddah IZ. This CD ranks with all of his other music, the Best of the Best, of all the Hawaiian music there is to listen to. He was a GIANT...He lives on in his music for us all. ALoha!
