"Hawaiian War Chant " is an American popular song whose original melody and lyrics were written in the 1860s by Prince Leleiohoku .[1] 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.
History [ edit ]
Under the original title, the song was recorded around June 1911 by the Crowel Glee Club, and released by Columbia Records .[2]
English lyrics by Ralph Freed were written in 1936 and the melody changed somewhat at that time by Johnny Noble . Tommy Dorsey recorded it on November 29, 1938, and it was released on Victor Records in the United States and Canada.[3] In a 1942 performance, Dorsey's band featured drummer Buddy Rich and trumpeter Ziggy Elman for this song.[4] The song was featured in the 1942 film Ship Ahoy starring Eleanor Powell , Red Skelton and the Tommy Dorsey Band . The song features prominently in Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room , a Disney theme park attraction that first opened at Disneyland in 1963.[5]
Spike Jones recorded the song for Victor Records in February 1946[6] with Carl Grayson on vocal. It reached number eight on the charts, according to Joel Whitburn.
