Chorus, this one's for you!
Here's your lost song, I think. The artist is Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, and he was a much-loved Hawaiian musician. I think he was pretty terrific, too. :-)
I love that song. Honestly, I can tell you the first time that I ever recall hearing it was in the fall of 1998 when it was in an ad for now efunct e-Toys.com.
It was at that same time that I began to visit Hawaii on business and had the good fortune to go there many times.
He really captured the spirit of the Islands and its people.
