When I'm at school it just seems to pop up in my head and I'm just singing part of it over and over again also at a late time😂 I can never get it out of my head...
I was born I New Zealand and raised in Australia and it makes me so happy to come back to hear this new Zealand classic, even if ive lived most of my life in Australia, I am kiwi, I love this culture
God of Nations never made me sway and dance and feel happy. In fact it's a dirge. Let it drift into the past, let's move into the light. @@ZeeJones-c7v
Yeah totally, culture is still alive, most races get along , there's like no poisonness anything here, Voted to be one of the less corrupted countries in the world.... Like shiiieet im so glad I live here 😂😂 not to mention we're a small country and we still kick these bigger countries asses lol
I'm from Scotland and this song just came into my head 5 minutes ago so here I am. Back in 1984 the Patea Maori Club came over to the UK to promote this. I saw this on TV twice I think and it's stuck with me ever since. Comes into my head now and again but this is the first time I've heard it since 84 and I feel 16 again (only in the head) I have no idea what the song is about, I just love the feel good nature of it. Oh and I'm a big fan of the All Blacks so if I win the lottery I'm definitely emigrating 😉
I’m an American and I found this song through Wikipedia. I was doing some research on poi performance and they mentioned this song under ‘Maori Culture’.
Tena Koe. My name is Alessandra .💚I am a proud kiwi. I live and breathe this song. It's amazing and I love how it represents our culture so beautifully. 🇳🇿Ka pai to any one who wants to learn this song. 😊Just listen to it and learn little bits at a time. Start with the chorus. It's different each time.💖💖
@@maya3037 how is that racist...... 🤦🏻♀️ It's a joke between australia and new zealand that australia steals everything from us....so tell me.. How's that racist? If it was racist then why do australians think it's funny?
I am not a kiwi I'm form Asia, Pakistan. I don't know why I like it so much. I wish this song becomes a UN national anthem or somethng. I see many people from different nations commenting love for it. Not my language but listening to it makes me happy. It's 12.30 am here
I love New Zealand culture. Reminds me a lot of Canada. We're always bullied by Americans as they're by the Aussies. But we all know we're the better country
New Zealand is always picked on by Aussies whenever it comes up in pop culture. Example being like 3 flight of the conchords episodes where they were picked on by the Aussie consulate. And I used to live in Australia and my best mate was from New Zealand so people would always give him shit, jokingly of course. You're awfully defensive aren't you?
Jason Standing no I was just wondering why Serena randomly wrote Maori in the comments, and I thought she was correcting Marae with Maori... just never mind! xD
Kia Ora Katoa. Some of us actually lived through Aotearoa history and recognise a great song and a beautiful story. This was on RTR when I was in my early 20s. It put Patea on the the map and continues to to this day. I'm so glad to be able to read these lyrics and only now appreciate the brilliance of those responsible for the masterpiece. Kia Kaha e Arohanui
I only came here because Ben and Jono were playing this song when they were doing a film tribute to Taika Waititi and the films he did before. I recently watched Thor: Ragnarok last Friday and I thought it was pretty awesome. Taika made an wonderful movie for Marvel’s Thor. Lots of comedy, lots of action, lots of improv. And they made Thor a funny, but badass character that I definitely saw in a new light. And The Incredible Hulk was definitely the highlights of the movie. Valkyrie was boss when she was facing off those undead Asgardian soldiers. Loki had some incredible moments too. And Korg was definitely the MVP of the movie. My hat off to you Taika and I hope your future continues to be a shining success! Anyway, this song, Poi E, is really uplifting too. I loved hearing it.
Often I play this video. Today with gratitude I used it in my a.m. personal stay at home ANZAC Remembrance Service Thanking you kindly Blessings be to you
oml we had to do this in kapa haka poi our Maori culture shouldnt have been taken from us back in the day cause now when I look around in class people are lost like aww poor yous and the Te Reo we speak now half of it ain't even proper Reo its made up I know the original Te Reo because me Nan taught me how to speak it and how to speak today's Reo

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 blasting this in my car all day in Vancouver Canada #represent 🇳🇿
A kiwi classic that all Islanders love
you're either here because of boy, or because you have to practice this for kapa haka
Or because you've just seen "Poi E: the Story of our Song" and the words went by too fast on a first hearing.
Or because you had too much tequila and want to sing along
Kizzla20 i have to do this for kaoa haka XD
kizzla20 yes yes and I'm proud of my NZ heritage
kizzla20 Ahahahahah
I remember at primary we had a Waiata almost every day, where we'd sing along to lyric videos, and this was one of them. Good times.
Omg i haven't heard this before i was little like 2013! Gosh what a long time ago.
haha, This song is amazing isn't it
Reminds me of when I was a child like 4 years ago
