IZ是夏威夷音乐里赫赫有名的歌唱家，擅长演唱和弹奏夏威夷四弦琴，全名ISRAEL KAMAKAWIWO’OLE，实在长，所以基本上歌迷们都昵称他为IZ。他于1959年出生于火奴鲁鲁(檀香山)一个名为Kaimuki的小镇上，后来移居到Makaha（马卡哈，夏威夷著名的旅游圣地）。IZ深深爱上了这个新家，为了表达他的热爱之情，IZ和他的哥哥Skippy Kamakawiwo'ole 以及其他三位朋友在70年代成立了一支名为The Makaha Sons（马卡哈之子）的乐队。



      Israel Kamakawio'ole的歌曲不光用了本土的弹拨乐器， 而且还用当地的方言演唱，“卡卡，库库，碌碌”的发音跳悦性在耳边轻歌曼舞，不的不承认自己仿佛有小资的享受了。为音乐，小资一把也无大碍！上面遮阳的应该是大芭蕉叶，然后自己喝着自己采摘的椰子的椰子汁。音乐即是舞动的，又是懒散的，阳光不是射着来到了你的身边，而是像个徐徐降落的彩色气球般触摸了你的身体..........


Where is my love Kamalani
Please answer me Kamalani
Puka'nilui Puka'nilui
Oh here I am Kamalani
Here in this paradise
Kamalani Kamalani
Is this the forest of heaven here in this paradise
Please come to me Kamalani
When nights are still Kamalani
You can hear the voice of Puka'nilui
He beckons you Kamalani
You'll be together again
Kamalani Kamalani
You hear the sound of his voice here in this paradise
Please come to me Kamalani
When nights are still Kamalani
You can hear the voice of Puka'nilui
Oh Here I am Kamalani
We'll be together again
Kamalani Kamalani
You hear the sound of his voice
Here in this paradise
Kamalani Kamalani
You'll hear the sound of his voice
Here in this paradise
