[edit] Historical context missing
I'm just gonna point it out... I feel the article lack some historical context like how these leis where used by royalty and the symbolism for each lei etc. I'm no expert but it would be nice to get an expert on the this matter to help out separate the fakery that might come about by commercial advertising from the real history of the lei. Like information about how "kukui nut leis" were only initially used by royalty or is this just a fake story to sell products. It's really difficult to determine if this information is historically the case. Getonyourfeet 23:51, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Unsourced/notable content
(Hawaiian song) May Day is Lei Day in Hawaii, composed by Hawk, is one of the popular modern Hawaiian songs. On May 9, 2008, this song was sung by Glee Club, with hula dancer Piilani and The Royal Hawaiian Band, at the Conch Shells of Iolani Palace Concert.
