Experience a “Sing-Along with Mele Fong” class as Mele on ukulele and husband Rich on u-bass led students in playing Hey Good Lookin’ with Hum Ding-Ah Strum as the song lyrics and ukulele chords were projected on the large screen at Kaunoa Senior Center for adults 55 and better on Maui. We sang the song twice and learned the story behind the song in keeping with Hawaiian oral history traditions (although the song was not Hawaiian). Student Artie Parti played along on his electric guitar (he is in the photo with us).
Hey Good Lookin’ was written and recorded by country singer Hank Williams in 1951. In 2001, his version was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. However, Cole Porter wrote the original in 1943 and Ethel Merman sang it in the Broadway musical “Something for the Boys.” We sang Hank Williams’ version with slightly different lyrics than the original.
This song was part of the “Sing-Along Paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) Songs” one-hour class on February 16, 2023, with 15 students signed up.
