5 out of 5 stars Her most original and traditional CD..........2001-07-28

Robi's second release (Keiki O Ka 'Aina, meaning Children Of The Land) is her most original and traditional CD. The Hawaiian songs include:

"Na Mo'olelo Kahiko (Keiki O Ka 'Aina La)" which shares the ancient stories of the islands.

"Nani Ko'olau" is a romantic song.

"Ku'u 'I'ini Mai Ka Lani" talks about a love for family.

"He Po Lani Makamae" is another romantic song.

"Himene Tatarahapa" is a religious song about the Lord's return.

"He Lei Aloha No Ke Keiki" honors a family's reunion.

The other songs are in English, with my favorite being the reggae style "Dreamland," which makes me think of The Swiss Family Robinson. :) "Firelady" has chanting by female singer Kekuhi Kanahele, and recalls Hawaii's gradually fading natural beauty, with lines like, "There's an island, green and pretty Turned gray with concrete city..." and "Flow over concrete that would hide the sun..." There's also an added piece of talking after the last track. This CD is so peaceful. I love it!

5 out of 5 stars Brings me to the Islands.......2001-02-07

On a trip to Maui, my husband heard this CD while lounging at a beach cafe'. He liked it so much, we bought it before we left Hawaii. We play it a lot, and every time we hear it, we are transported back to the islands. Robi has a beautiful voice. This is "feel good" music that lifts our spirits every time we hear it. I highly recommend it, even for those who have not been to Hawaii. It will make you want to go.
