TUNESMITH TUESDAY - Spike Jones "Hawaiian War Chant"

"Hawaiian War Chant" was an American popular song whose original melody and lyrics were written in the 1860s by Prince Leleiohoku. The original title of the song was Kāua I Ka Huahuaʻi or "We Two in the Spray." It was not written as a chant, and the Hawaiian lyrics describe a clandestine meeting between two lovers, not a battle. The English title therefore has nothing to do with the song as it was originally written and performed in Hawaii.

Humorist Spike Jones recorded the song in February of 1946, featuring Carl Grayson on vocals, and it reached number eight on the "Hit Parade"

"Spelled backwards..."

"...Ul-ul!"

"Ah! In the distance we hear Spike Jones and his Wacky Wakkakians!"
