To determine the 50 Greatest Songs of Hawai‘i, HONOLULU Magazine assembled a panel of 35 Hawaiian music experts, including musicians, producers, historians, promoters, radio DJs and programming directors, professors, music sellers and more. Each was invited to share a ranked list of the songs they felt represented the best in Hawai‘i music. HONOLULU tabulated the results, taking into account how often a song was voted for and how highly ranked it was on each panelist’s list. The songs they named span the generations, from the time of the monarchy to the present day.
