The best way to revel in a CW signature piece is to read it out loud - with feeling. I wish you could have heard my version of this powerful chant. No, I don’t! But, it’s a mood changer, that’s for sure...and a great way to get ready to ring in the New Year. I think I have a Hawai’ian chant CD around here somewhere ... Here’s looking forward to another fabulous year at ChrisWeigant.com as I send out a heartfelt Hau’oli Makahiki Hou and a hearty Okole maluna! to everyone here...and that goes especially for you, Michale...if you know what I mean, and I’m sure that you do! :D Oh, and here’s what I’d like to see banished from our collective vocabulary ... actually, come to think of it, there’s something inherently wrong with banishing words and phrases - even the irritatingly grating ones. But, that’s just me. :) Well, Chris...that was very, very nice...and it brought back a flood of colourful memories of the ancient hula dance of Hawai’i.
