Re: Danny Couch Announcements

Danny Couch was the lead singer of the Ali`is in the early eighties when they were consisitently at or near the top of the listener-voted top-thirty list (long before Radio Free Hawaii did it, KIKI 83 AM had ballot boxes at malls and takeout places all over the island). If you've heard "You are the Best of My Life" or the Ali`is simultaneous cover of Air Supply's "Here I Am" (while Air Supply was in the top ten nationwide with their song, the Ali`is were in the top ten with the same song--it was strange), you've heard his voice.

His stuff since leaving the Ali`is has been mostly unmemorable (except for the song "These Islands," mentioned in the first post in this thread, which you hear twice whenever you attend the City's Sunset on the Beach), 'though I hear he does a pretty good live show.

The HVCB paid a pretty penny for that song, and for the assorted gorgeous promo videos it accompanies, so you bet your sweet bippy you'll hear it everywhere. It is quite stirring in an appropriately melodramatic way... and when it would play with the Hawaii scenery video montage on planes as I was coming back to Honolulu after a crazy trip to Asia, it was as much a signature part of "coming home" as "Honolulu City Lights" was of leaving.

Of course, as part of my job, I actually found myself using that very same song in one of our own conference promo videos, and after hearing it over and over, hours every day, for nearly two weeks in editing... well, let's just say it took a while before I could stand to hear it on the radio again.

I saw him live a few years back when he headlined the weekly hula show at the Hale Koa Hotel. Surprisingly energetic, nothing like the "lounge lizard" act I'd been expecting. My in-laws quickly bought up a lot of his stuff, which I guess was the point.

Thank you for your comments on Danny's singing.. Unfortunately Mulan was NOT Danny's work! His songs were going to be used in Lilo and Stitch but Disney changed their minds..
I do have a full Bio on my website for Danny. And yes Danny is an avid athlete.

Far from a slump performer!

Danny Couch was the lead singer of the Ali`is in the early eighties
His stuff since leaving the Ali`is has been mostly unmemorable (except for the song "These Islands," mentioned in the first post in this thread, 'though I hear he does a pretty good live show.

(Danny Couch was the lead singer of the Ali`is) Yes indeed he was, also the drummer. Along with Benny Chong, Bobby King, Joe Mundo and Carlos Barboza. (I have some great collectable photos onboard as well as full music clips, ever from his first group The Rolling Coconuts) Their Album The Aliis won 2 "Hoku Awards" in 1982 for Contemporary Album of the Year along with The Single of the Year; You are the Best of My Life. His "Here I Am" was actually taken from the Aliis for Air Supply.
(His stuff since leaving the Ali`is has been mostly unmemorable) I have to disagree.. Danny has received the Hoku with the song he wrote at the seasoned age of 12 Danny wrote his first song "From My Heart" which won Song of the Year in 1985. Song of the Year '82 "You Are the Best of My Life" as stated earlier, second for his "From My Heart" in 1985. His (year 2000) award winning Single of the Year; (These Islands) is known world wide. Hawaii Music Awards 1998 presented the Award for Male vocalist of the Year to Danny Couch, "Almost Paradise". The Award for Contemporary Album of the Year: Also went to Danny Couch "Almost Paradise" Best Song "These Islands". The three, Best Song, Best Singer and Best Album of the Year was a sure sign of the future success of this album and single. This beautiful ballad was used as the Theme Song for the '98 Miss Universe Pageant in Honolulu. It was purchased by the State of Hawaii < commercials/video campaign airing on television worldwide, as well as the State of Hawaii incorporating it as it's "Anthem of Tourism/Theme Song."
His Album "Something to Remember" Hawaii Music Award "Peoples Choice" For "Best Hawaiian Contemporary Album of the Year '2002. "Best Contemporary Album of the Year", as well as nominated for "Best Male Vocalist" In the "2003 Na Hoku Hanohano Awards". "Then and Now" was Nominated: For Hoku's in the Contemporary Album, and Male Vocalist of the Year, '04**categories. He currently is nominated for the Hawaii Music Awards with his new release "I Love Hawaii" The Journey.. Also up again for Peoples Choice Internet Artist of the Year.
you can vote for both now.. www.hawaiimusicawards.com

Danny has been awarded the plaque "Most Requested Artist '03 for the Second Year in a row with the HMA. For the year '04 Danny was voted as "Internet Artist of the Year" Through Hawaii Music Awards and promoted through Aloha Joe. Voted on Peoples Choice by his Fans!

Ah common now, I do have to defend the show at the Hale Koa, and Danny for that matter. The hotel is a military hotel, Danny performed at the Luau for 14 years with minimal pay. When they built the new Garden Showroom they failed to upgrade the sound system, or his pay for that matter. Danny poured out his heart and soul to the croud who adored him, who came back year after year, or multiple times per visit. He is a warm loving person with a caring nature. One who people flock to, wanting to get to know him. He's very personable with his friends. Sure he sells his CD's.. and that's all he sells (HK didn't permit anything else) but he also spends about 11/2 hours after his gig signing autographs and taking photos with his fans. And some he even invites into his Ohana. He no longer performs at the HK, couldn't afford to. He's now in Kona performing by demand at the new Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort and Spa. The Hale Koa loses in the end...loses the best performer they've ever had. Danny also performed at the Princess Kaiulani right after 911 for over a year. This was a free show specifically geared towards the locals, who no longer were allowed in the HK. He truly saw that hotel through some difficult times

Oh, puhLEEEEZE! What a load!

"For Love of Danny's Music" not votes or photo publicity.

But, um, you did post here (and tons of other internet sites) begging for votes before the last Hoku awards.
Danny is nice lounge singer, but far from the creme de la creme of Hawaiian performers. Do you ever wonder why he never appears on the bills of any of the major concerts or events? He's good, but just good. Just like hundreds of others.
Lea, I doubt that you ever read replies to your spam, but in the off chance that you do I have to tell you that I feel you're doing more harm to Danny than good. You constantly spam every internet site that's even vaguely connected to Hawaiian music, and you totally ignore the fact that almost every reply begs you to stop. All you're accomplishing is creating negative feelings about Danny.
You seem to be overly obsessed with him, to a point that it appears unhealthy. It's nice that you're a fan, but "fan" comes from "fanatic" and the description of that word is "one having excessive zeal for, and irrational attachment to, a cause or position". It just doesn't seem healthy, and if I was Danny I'd be getting a little concerned. Overly enthusiastic fans turn into stalkers, and that can get bizarre.
So we ask you again: PLEASE stop spamming us.

Re: Danny Couch Announcements

I have to say ditto to LikaNui's post.

Listen. We understand that you love Danny Couch, and that's cool. That's fine. If you would like to discuss your passion for the man and his music, well, let's talk aboout it. We can handle it. I'm overly zealous about some of my favorite musicians, too, so I can relate.

My problem is that you don't want to discuss anything; all you want to do is generate interest in your projects. It's as if you're dropping in on Thanksgiving Dinner bearing nothing but Amway products for us all to sample and purchase, without even joining us at the table or sticking around to see if mom's going to burn the biscuits again ('cause she always does).

Seriously, LikaNui's right. I had a mild interest in Danny Couch's music (I've mentioned before that I really liked his work with the Ali`is) before, but now whenever I hear his name or see his name in print, I just roll my eyes and shudder. I honestly believe that the burden is really on me just to ignore your posts, but when LikaNui spoke up, I thought I'd add my voice, just so you know. If you care, that is.
