Some years ago, I visited Hawaii. I went to Oahu, and I have to say, Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places I have visited. I still remember the mountains, the trees, the greenery, and the relaxed, good vibes there.
I know I was there as a tourist, so my experience of Hawaii was different from that of a local. Even so, from my perspective, the island was stunning, and I really enjoyed my time there.
I could walk through forests where the canopy made the daytime feel like night. I remember looking from lookouts and appreciating the grandeur of the island. I recall the friendly tour guide and the reflective mood I had while walking through Pearl Harbor.
One day, while getting ready to go out, I was listening to a local radio station. A local artist was playing a sweet reggae song with lyrics like “I miss you girl, I miss you much,” but I couldn’t remember the details.
For years, I searched for the song or artist without success. Today, I think I finally found it. There’s a video by the Opihi Pickers called “Old-fashioned Touch,” with that same sweet reggae melody. I wanted to share it here for anyone else who’s been searching.
Enjoy! Feel free to share your thoughts on this groove!
