Ten years after his death on June 26, 1997, Israel Kamakawiwo&remains a powerful influence on modern Hawaiian music and culture, both at home and abroad. He has, arguably, achieved iconic status; that his fame was built in large part on a medley of two songs with no connection to Hawai&seems almost irrelevant.
