00:10.850 --> 00:14.350
We wrote the song titled
“Kēlā Mea Whiffa.”

00:15.060 --> 00:17.390
Like the rain, rain.

00:17.390 --> 00:21.360
[singing]
♪ Rain, rain, everyday ♪

00:21.360 --> 00:24.120
(male speaker #1)
So these people, each one of 'em,

00:24.120 --> 00:29.290
you always sought information from them?

00:29.290 --> 00:32.760
Yes, always, I asked them.

00:33.860 --> 00:37.580
If I wanted to do something
about a certain area,

00:37.580 --> 00:40.720
they'll know about it,
because they're born and raised there.

00:40.720 --> 00:44.120
And they says, “I'll meet you,
and let's talk about it.”

00:44.120 --> 00:47.310
That's how we wrote the song
“Kēlā Mea Whiffa.”

00:47.310 --> 00:48.360
(male speaker #1)
And then--

00:48.360 --> 00:51.820
And we laughed all the way, throughout,
two hours, just laugh about it.

00:51.820 --> 00:53.950
(male speaker #1)
And Waipiʻo's the same way with Sam?

00:53.950 --> 00:55.040
Yes, with Sam Liʻa.

00:55.040 --> 00:57.040
(male speaker #1)
You would ask him--

00:57.040 --> 00:58.470
All the things I wanted to tell.

00:58.470 --> 01:00.340
(male speaker #1)
Right, that's why they were your teachers,

01:00.340 --> 01:02.900
because you chose them.

01:02.900 --> 01:04.080
I didn’t choose them.

01:04.080 --> 01:04.980
(male speaker #1)
They chose you.

01:04.980 --> 01:07.770
I asked them if I would–
“Can I come by?”

01:07.770 --> 01:11.120
And they always tell me, “Come, come.”

01:11.120 --> 01:16.110
You know, so I was honored
for them to ask me to come.
