My seven-year-old daughter knows old songs and how the neighborhoods got their names. There are little things: Businesses receive blessings from Hawaiian priests before opening, and everyone's kids have their debut luau. You can't really get through a day without doing something Hawaiian.

A lot of times, that's hard to capture: what you sound like in person versus what you sound like on record.

- Darlene Love
