Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: These are two songs that might group wrote as an assignment in our class ... one song is about your relationship with the ocean, and the ocean represents your lover, too ... mele hoʻo ipo ipo ... 'come sleep in the ocean' ... it's in Hawaiian ... and six chords would be too much ... in more traditional music you could play 30 songs from three different chords ... the chords on the ʻukulele are kind of a guide, it's the voice ... I am the only one in the group who plays ʻukulele ... we have another who knows more Hawaiian ... that's how our kumu planned it ... one is into hula, so she will be adding hula ... and one guy plays guitar, so he follows me ... and another girl likes to sing ... nobody has written a song, so this one just happened ... so, it was meant to be ... based on our first assignment, the way we write, he could probably tell who would be good with who ... I can't even believe we wrote a song
