Homesick Hawaiian Music : Justin Young

Today we start a series of posts for the Homesick Hawaiian better known as da Hawaii expat. This topics will focus on music, places, products, events that help you feel not so homesick or maybe more homesick depending on how you look at it. With that being said what better way to forget your problems then listening to some good ol Hawaiian Music.

Justin Young has been entertaining the Hawaii crowd since 1996 with his debut album "No Better Time Than Now." But his real homesick appeal came in 2003 when he released the song "One Foot On Sand" on his album of the same name. The song talks about how being away from home can open your eyes to new things, new experiences but being from Hawaii always keeps you grounded with one foot on the sand. Get it?

Here's a little lyrical taste:

Holidays bring me home
My appreciation has grown
Warming waters, smaller pond
But some things here circle on
Sometimes I reach to meet the clouds
But I always keep one foot on grounds
And away on distant lands
I always keep one foot on sand

This CD is great for anyone looking for some good music to give you that warm I miss Hawaii feeling. If you would like to listen to a sample of the song click on through.
