"I'm sitting here listening to this CD, crying as I type this: that's how beautiful this music is. Right now track #2 is playing, E O Mai - the title track. I have had this CD for 3 or 4 years now, and let me assure you - you won't get tired of it. It's beautiful, and Keali'i's voice is smoother than glass. You'll love it."
Borders on Spiritual

"This 3rd CD from Keali'i (NOT KELLY) contains two of the most beutiful love songs, E O MAI and Ka 'Ano'i Pua I have ever heard in any language. He truly has the voice of an angel and when I listen to him, it borders on a spiritual experience. The only criticism I can find are with two of his english songs, My Love is a Natural Thing and If I Had Words. They are way too sugary and the the CD would have been much better without them. (I am going to see him in August & I hope he leaves those two songs out of the set.) At any rate, treat yourself to this and his previous CDs because you can always skip the songs you don't like because the ones you do will make it worth every penny."
The Sighing Waters of Kahualoa

"I have bought all 4 of his CD's and seen his last four tours. He is the only solo artist to sell out all shows in Maui every year. He is a perfectionist who as a hula Kumu, teacher, establishes great flow to his beautiful music. His voice is an smooth as silk. I think this is his best CD and one of the most emotional. It is very serene and relaxing collection of chants and melodies with the best being "E O Mai", "Pua Hinano" and "Ka 'Ano'i Pua O Uka"."
Hawaiian Music at its best!

"Keali'i is one of the best Hawaiian singers! i listen to this and all his CD's. If you want to understand the spirt of "Aloha", you have got to get his CD's. Saw him in concert a few weeks ago. A class act!"
E O Mai is very Hawaiian

"While on the Pride of Aloha in Hawaii, I enjoyed the music of Keali'i Reichel being played on board the ship.
Very mellow and peaceful and some favorite American songs added. Keali'i Reichel will sing in English with some songs and in Hawaiian in others. It has a nice mix to it all.
I have all his CD's so that I can continue to listen to Reichel over and over. I highly recommend any of Reali'i Reichel's work."
