Music & film by Michael J. Keplinger
Original composition by T. Marvin Hatley (1933)
Created mostly in the summer of 2020, shortly after we celebrated Stan Laurel’s 130th birthday. Growing up, loving and adoring their filmography, I still consider Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy - the latter of which sang this song with a ukulele in hand in »Sons of the Desert« in 1933 - to be the funniest people I have ever seen on film and hoped to honor them and T. Marvin Hatley, who provided so much of their movies’ charme with his brilliant compostions, with this little piece of music and film.

While down on the South Sea islands,
underneath the beauty of the stars,
I strayed upon some maidens
who were strumming on their guitars.
A hula maid was dancing
and I knew I found my paradise.
And this is what I told her
as I gazed into her eyes…
Honolulu baby, where'd you get those eyes
and the dark complexion, I just idolize?
Honolulu baby, where'd you get that style
and those pretty red lips, and that sunny smile?
