If the world had a sense of community like Hawaii it’s be a much better place

[@sirgeopene2956]

Not just Hawaii my brother! It’s a Polynesian thing!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@marymaria4079]

Aloha spirit

[@marywhitt8713]

So true

[@sirenloud]

Reminds me of my hometown in Mexico😢 it's amazing when you go to your real home I'm proud to be an American but there's something about going home to your mother land ism is so happy only 18 years old but his soul is so ancient

[@GrannysGarage333]

It’s the indigenous spirit… 🩵

[@bubbamama6415]

Nobody does it better than Hawaii. 808 represent 🤙🏼

Wow his homecoming is the best one I've ever seen. Hope Hawaii is happy.

[@kisalei]

We are happy and proud🎉

[@wutdafeezy]

We definitely are

[@deborl7278]

It's very telling that they are VERY PROUD ALOHA

[@KG-fw5wk]

The woman singing next to Iam at the concert is Paula Fuga. She had auditioned for American Idol in the season of Fantasia and JHUD, but Simon rejected her because she didn’t “look” like an American Idol. She is now a very successful local musician, and wanted to support Iam.

[@BobbyHo2022]

Good thing Simon isn't on the show anymore. He was brutal.

[@st4r444]

I wish jasmine trias was there

[@Skyllar345toka]

Hawaii went all out!🤙Nobody else in the history of American Idol had a homecoming like this! Common Kings on the stage too

[@fishingwithsam7526]

He is the best 😮😊😊

[@train7629]

This is Kahuku! This is the North Shore! This is Hawaii! These are the different cultures and people from all over the world that makes this community a unique community in the United States, you do not see this anywhere else in the world… this tight knit community. They really represent….congratulations Iam!!❤❤❤❤

[@kimtoshio549]

This was the best homecoming video in all of American Idol history. I love watching the cameraman filming and was so looking forward to seeing how they were going to edit it. Amazing. Congrats Iam.

[@leemarsh6887]

His dad would be so proud of him❤❤❤

[@barryrenken4804]

Beautiful ❤️

[@algure7394]

Finally, a very inspiring story. From stressful news all over the world, sometimes you come across something that breaks the hearts. You’re a good son, Iam.

[@kawehionalani3957]

Indeed! A true rags to riches story. It’s written in the stars. This is his destiny ❤

[@darkblaze6526]

Goosebumps.

[@evanschmitt2330]

This is unique. This is powerful. This is real.

[@reymarkfabroa]

I'm one of his fans from the Philippines 👌❤

[@felit9991]

From the beginning felt like a movie. Then the hashtag IAMHOME was a nice touch.

[@kd5inm]

Hawaii deserves this to have one of their own representing 100%. Good job!

[@jasonlo6710]

It shows the unity and what people from the island is all about. ❤

[@guillevit]

What an emotional and beautiful journey Iam… God bless your way to the stars!!!!!

[@Trinsolo]

Man! He makes me miss home so much!😢😢 priced out of paradise at 2010. ❤

Oh boy!! I can’t say enough good things about this young man. People like me all over the world adore him. I am so happy he won. He’s such a blessing to all of us. He restores faith in humanity. This kid has the divine favor of God because there’s only one way a person can shine that bright on this earth and it’s with God’s favor and his touch/blessing. God bless the whole family and I pray that they are kept safe and well amen

[@user-yt4ov2un2p]

Shine that bright, I meant

So amazing how his people welcomed him nice culture,much respect

[@lindaackerman4412]

He's such a pure soul and so adorable

[@nicolevisser2444]

Amazing homecoming. Liam, you are the best. I have never been to Hawaii, but I lived in Samoa and in New Zealand with people with Tonga. They were wonderful and loving people with a rich culture.

[@Kava650]

The Hawaiians are our polynesian cousins from the top of the triangle.

[@G4LIFE74]

Knew this kid would win it from day one. Congrats!!👍🤙🏻

[@antovangobel3004]

I dont know, im just smilling and crying at same time.. he brings joy and his sincerity was beautifull ❤️..

[@tonywalsh4393]

What a family I never had a dad but I cried with you mate hope you go a long way Maybe I'll see you sing one day god bless ya

[@yaaleeuce2872]

Nah…from uploading a cover of “island style” with his friends to performing it with the artist is crazy…Hawaii really showed out

[@markhartford9843]

God Bless You, Iam. Your father looks down on you and is very proud of you.

[@helenvaldez1270]

Thank You For Uploading This Clip of The Show. I watched the live stream of his Homecoming Concert, and swear the crew/cameramen were all smiling throughout the filming and i wanted to see how AI edited. They did well in showing what it feels like having the Islands embracing and supporting your success. Congratulations Iam 🎉 Team Iam Always 🤙🏼🌴🌺

[@gj1695]

I only wish they showed Iam's duet with Jack Johnson. Their voices blended so beautifully. And the warmth and camaraderie between them... Iam is so popular, I think American Idol should do a one-hour special about his homecoming. There was too much footage to include on the finale. I watched the live footage over and over, it filled/fills my heart with such aloha nui. 🌺🤙 Mahalo, Hawai'i, for filming and posting -- so that we could share in the experience. ♥️

[@JodyY808]

@@gj1695 Thatʻs exactly what I thought - They could do a whole episode on just Iamʻs homecoming. If ABC is looking for ratings, I bet a special about Iam Tongi would be would be a winner -- just like him!

[@gj1695]

@@JodyY808 I agree! I hope they read the YT comments. Especially given shows are on hiatus for summer... We need an IAM TONGI SPECIAL! The WORLD needs ALOHA! 🌺🤙

[@gj1695]

@@JodyY808 Oh and I was disappointed AI didn't air Haku Collective's tribute to Iam -- and Iam's reaction. ♥️ Beautiful! Again, there's so much material... they could easily compile a two-hour special. I hope Iam sings on Jimmy Kimmel (ABC), soon. But the writer's strike is still going on. I don't get why Kimmel can't write his own monologue and material for a couple a weeks. But oh well. And Iam could probably use some down-time to chill, anyway... 😁

After knowing Iam, and learning about the beautiful culture, I really really want to visit Hawaii someday with my husband. Maybe go for honeymoon we never had. It’s in my bucket list now. But I live in Asia, so I have to save up some money first. Give me a year and half. I’ll be there, for sure. 😍

I’m so happy he won it all I know Rodney shining down his ray of life to him

I really wish one day Iam & Dwayne Johnson will meet together & do something special in anything, especially on that beautiful Island with the beautiful people & beautiful culture. Huge love from Singapore here. ❤
