Hawaii Calls was a radio program broadcast live from Waikiki Beach from 1935 through 1975 that reached 750 stations world-wide at the height of its popularity. It featured live Hawaiian music by an 11-piece dance orchestra conducted by Harry Owens, the composer of "Sweet Leilani". The show selected the best musicians and singers, with the purpose of showcasing what authentic Hawaiian music is like when played by native performers, but with one major difference—the lyrics were sung in English and intended for white audiences. Hawaiians called this hybrid with English hapa haole (half-white)

  • ハワイ・コールズ(英語: Hawaii Calls)は米軍放送網(AFN)で1935~1975年に放送されたハワイの音楽を中心にしたラジオ番組であった。通常、ハワイ州ホノルルのワイキキビーチにあるモアナホテルの中庭で、波の音と共に実況中継されていた。日本でも米軍放送網がFENの名称で放送されていた時代に、1950~70年代前半の毎週金曜日の夜8:05-9:00に放送されて、ハワイ音楽が日本でも人気を高めた理由のひとつになっている。 (ja)
