Meaning of Hawaiiannette (Hawaiian Love Talk) by Annette Funicello

May 31, 2023

The song "Hawaiiannette (Hawaiian Love Talk)" by Annette Funicello tells the story of a girl who met a boy while in Hawaii and fell in love with him despite not speaking the language and not knowing much about Hawaiian culture. The lyrics describe how the girl is dressed in a hula skirt with a flower in her hair, mimicking the hula girl in Hawaii, and how she meets the hula boy while he is eating fish and koi under the palms.

As they stroll down the silver sand, the boy puts his hands in hers and begins to whisper things she can't understand. She responds by repeating "Ah awahia" and "Ah-awaii-ay," which indicates that she is caught up in the moment and swept away by the romance and beauty of Hawaii, despite not understanding what he is saying.

The girl admits that she doesn't know his name and can't tell him hers, and she can't speak a word of Hawaiian. But there is something in his eyes that tells her that he is wise, and he realizes that she is not really Hawaiian. He laughs and tells her that he remembers her from when she was in second grade with him in Utica and that he thinks she's much cuter now.

Overall, the song conveys the idea that love can transcend language and cultural barriers and that the beauty and charm of Hawaii can capture the heart of anyone, even if they don't fully understand it.
