"Tiny Bubbles" is a song written by Leon Pober and performed by Don Ho.[1] It comes from the album of the same name. The single peaked at #57 on the Billboard Hot 100[2] and #14 on the Easy Listening charts in March 1967.[3] By 1968, "Tiny Bubbles" was covered about 34 times.[4] It was considered to be Ho's signature song.

Production

The song was requested by producer Sonny Burke after Ho couldn't successfully perform the song "Born Free". "Tiny Bubbles" was originally written for Lawrence Welk, since he tended to perform "champagne music". Welk turned it down, although he later performed the song several times on his television show after it became a hit.[5]

Legacy

"Tiny Bubbles" was considered to be Ho's signature song.[1][6] During one performance, after nearly thousands, Ho reportedly quipped "God, I hate that song".[1]

  • The second season of the American game show The Mole incorporated the song in a creative way - one test had a contestant confined to sleeping or staying on a bed while "Tiny Bubbles" was played on repeat in various versions (sped up, slowed down, backwards, etc). Fans believe it is an iconic moment of the short-lived series.[7]
  • It was featured in the 2001 film Bubble Boy.[8]
  • Alongside Ho's other songs, "E Le Ka Lei Lei (Beach Party Song)" and "Wish They Didn't Mean Goodbye", "Tiny Bubbles" was featured in the Season 7 Hawaii Five-0 episode, "Elua la ma Nowemapa".[9]
  • The song alone was also featured in the Season 3 episode, "Mohai".[10]
