As a cook island maori, I must say that out of all of us polynesian's, the samoan's would have to be the most modernised in music making. Not only in tradition, but they also mingle in with other cultural musicians mixing in a spice of multicultural flavour within their music. And a very nice song. I'm very intrigued and impressed!
I agree very diverse that they love to cover all genre's. From hip hop, rap, soul, reggae, country, traditional, classical and even rock, metal 😂 much alofas bro. Samoans rep for all of Polynesia too..
hahahaha Im laughing you are right bro. Us Hamo's love music. We still have our traditional songs but are only performed on special occasions. However I think our people have always done this. Our hymns for example, There ones Hymn called Ua so'ona olioli nei and it has about 4 different tunes to that same hymn, crazy lol
I don't speak Samoan, I don't understand a single word...... but I love country and I'm blown away by a beautiful Samoan song in Country feel. Manuia braddah... I just became a fan.
TonganAmerican here I am so proud of a Polynesian who broke the ice berg and tried something else out! Wonderful talent/voice keep up the Great work USO! #ProudPoly here!
This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. I have no idea what he’s saying but I feel the emotions in every syllable! What a beautiful voice!!!! Wow!
He's singing about his wife making him a dishwasher and treating him like an animal, while her brothers are out in town riding buses and having a good time. In Samoa, the main transportation are buses. Not everyone can afford a car or necessarily need one.
This is such a beautiful song😢😢❤❤Today was the day I buried my beloved father he lost his battle with cancer😭😭😭most painful experience ever😭😭😭I miss you so much dad😭😭And I love you so muchhhh❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤May Your Beautiful Humble soul Rest In Peace & Love ❤❤❤❤😭😭😭😭

@Jayden Atigi not really.. Talking about the wife..treat him like a shit...doing everything while her and brothers family having good time..while his cleaning,cooking like the ulos..'fufulu ulo" is cleaning dirty pots..dishes.. And his last words were ..there's the" kagoa ku'I koko" for her husband..meaning the carved wooden bowl with the with the stone used for grinding Samoan cocoa...that is other thing ge hates doing.. He said I left there for you as your husband.. Funny thing is he said afterwards bu don't forget I want my stone back..lol...the lyrics are awesome..funny .first time I hear this song from a special special friend..

Mr. Cowboy we need more singers like you. I'm from Nicaragua. The first time I heard you singing, I said that young had super talent. You are already an international singer God bless you and your family. You really have an amazing voice.
Oh man what a amazing voice definitely love his songs he’s got a voice that just grabs your attention and makes you appreciate the song he’s singing...I don’t understand the words I’m cook islander but man I’m going to learn the Samoan language now..... Malo Mr Cowboy 🤠
I am from Hawaii USA I am American Indian or Native American and Canadian French or Québecqoi and I love his music in English and in Samoan as my friends from work are Samoan and they are teaching me the Samoan language and about their culture and customs the Samoan people are very kind and caring and courteous and loving people so many people could learn alot from the Samoan people
Everywhere I go. I have to take this song with me. Always hitting me in the feels this song. And it’s got a 1. 1 2 type of punch beat for the superwoofers cheeeeehooooooo and I’m Tongan 😂 seki seki
That's my boy I play his music in every naberhood in USA Seattle to Florida don't worry brother I got u I promote u every where I go Samoan love it brother u got much love in the USA
🌸ALOHA, I'M FROM THE BIG ISLAND OF HAWAII🌸I LOVE YOUR VOICE BEAUTIFUL GOD BLESS YOU🌸I DID HERE YOUR OTHER SONGS MUSIC'S (GRANDPA) AND ANOTHER SONG THAT'S MY FAVORITE ANYWAY GOD BLESS YOU WITH MANY MANY MORE SONGS TO COME AMEN🌸
Nashville, I know you’ve heard this gentleman’s voice already. So why hadn’t you given this man a chance? He can be an opportunity for your cultural musics representative in a Polynesian cultural languages in the future. 100% 🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐🧐
For those who don’t understand Samoan, I hope the simple translation above might help you understand the meaning of this amazing song. As I was listening to it, I realized that the writers of the song touched a raw-nerve so to speak. Suffice it to say that the cultural context from which this song was written, addresses the issue of the “faiava” or the “son-in-law’ who lives with and serves his wife’s family, As is often the case, these men are sometimes treated as servants (in the song he calls himself a “slave”) of the wife’s family. If the wife’s father is a chief in her village, and her family is quite prominent, the role of the “faiava” becomes even more difficult, particularly if he is from a less prominent family of another village. So this song deals with this issue. In a way, I would call it, “The Lamentations of The Son-In-Law!” Hahaha... to all the “faiavas” out there, cheers man! Somebody finally hears your cry.
It can really suck though, even if its a nice girl and all her friends and most of her family, like 90% approve of you, just one or two siblings out of 5 or 6 can make it almost impossible for you, especially if they are brothers, older brothers and she is not ready to stand up to them. the scenes in the video and the words and emotion are really bringing back memories for me hahaha.

He is singing about how his wife and his in-laws used him like a rented neighbor's mule, and how he wants out of the marriage. Something we all could relate to is finding that unconditional love.
Absolutely an amazing voice Mr. Cowboy. America's got Talent would be a walk in the park for you!!!!!!!! You definitely are not a faifa'alifu ma fufulu'ulo with that voice!!

Either Billy Ray Cyrus or any male country artist. This guy makes me proud to be Samoan and makes me proud to be a fan/supporter of Country music. May God bless you Sam in everything that you do and continue to do ❤❤

How cool is this? A Samoan country singer!!! Seki lava upu ole pese!!! This guy needs to be more recognised across the ditch (aka world)!! He needs Blake from THE VOICE to snatch him up!!!!
I am a half Samoan and Fijian, but Fiji born samoan....love the song though I don't know the meaning of the song but I am sure it's more meaningful. And with what you going through I pray my brother that your songs will go far and your voice heard over and beyond for grate recognition. Love from Fiji
Absolutely. Fijian in Sydney. I love my reggae and country. This guy has so much talent. Remake and sing more Vince gill songs in whatever Samoan. Your voice is dynamite.
He is singing about how his wife and his in-laws used him like a rented neighbor's mule...something we all could relate to. We all want to find unconditional love.
To Mr.Cowboy62 first off I am American Indian and Canadian French mix and I have to say that you're a AWESOME singer and I hope you become worldwide famous and my heart goes out to all of the people in Samoa that has measles and their families much love sent to Samoa wishing Samoa a Merry Christmas and a Happy Healthy New Year 2020

He is truly blessed snd if u believe in god u must recognize are fathers work. Do I recognize god hand in this thank u u mr cowboy for sharing god gift he gave u with the rest of the world
Your voice is amazingly incredibly good. First time i hear a beautiful country voice from all over the Pacific Island!! Thank you for sharing an amazing voice of yours.
Translation: Verse 1 O my wife, why have you treated me like this? You used to call me honey and your darling. Maybe my taking care of your parents is the reason But you swore to me it was good in your sight. I was pounded by the chores I did many times While your brothers went hanging out and bus riding. I sleep at night while shedding tears. It’s as if I am a serpent being slain while it’s eyes are open. (Samoan proverb/metaphor) Chorus I am not a faalifu maker (faalifu: a Samoan delicacy/dish) and nighttime security. I’m not a laundry boy and a pot cleaner. I’m not an offspring of an animal that you can treat me like this. The cocoa pounding bowl is there for you to have for a husband. Verse 2 You thought I didn’t catch sight of that car you came in, that parked off some distance. And I heard his voice say, “Baby, see you tomorrow morning.” O my heart, it felt like I was dying. I saw you around the corner while I was standing alone with my umbrella. I didn’t know there was another man since you applied for a job at the transvestite’s salon. But, girl, return my rock. (Sung after the last chorus to end the song. The rock he refers to is a very smooth rock that is used to pound cocoa seeds to make Samoan cocoa.) Thursday ngt - November 11, 2021.
As a cook island maori, I must say that out of all of us polynesian's, the samoan's would have to be the most modernised in music making. Not only in tradition, but they also mingle in with other cultural musicians mixing in a spice of multicultural flavour within their music. And a very nice song. I'm very intrigued and impressed!

Genuinely the funniest thing to me is hearing an uso singing a country song in Samoan. Hell yeah uce
Best country voice in the Pacific...so proud of you
WOW!!!!!!! I've listened to so many country artists voices but Sam's voice is just beyond incredible. This guy really needs to be discovered by someone. Either Billy Ray Cyrus or any male country artist. This guy makes me proud to be Samoan and makes me proud to be a fan/supporter of Country music. May God bless you Sam in everything that you do and continue to do ❤❤
I love your country singing. Even if sometimes I don't understand the words. You are doing a great job!🌷

I can't even understand what your singing...but I wish I did. You put your heart and soul into it and I understand that. What an amazing voice
He is singing about how his wife and his in-laws used him like a rented neighbor's mule, and how he wants out of the marriage. Something we all could relate to is finding that unconditional love.

Beautiful voice! Samoan Country sounds wonderful. What a honey🤩
Oi lo'u to'alua 'ea, se a ua fai ai ita fa'apea
E le sa e ta'u honey ma ta'u o lau manamea
Pei ai ona o le tausi ai ina o matua le fa'apogai
Na e tauto mai ai ia a'u ua sili i lau va'ai
E tu'i pala lava a'u i fe'au i le tele o taimi
A o tafafao ou tuagane ua ti'eti'e pasi
Ou te moe i le po ma le maligi o o'u loimata
Ua pei ita o le gata e fasia ae pupula ona mata
E le'o a'u o se fai fa'alifu ma se leoleo po
E le'o se fai tagamea ma se fulu 'ulo oh oh
E le'o se tama a se manu ua e fai fa'apea ia a'u
Le tanoa tu'i koko lena e fai mou to'alua
E fa'apea lava oe e le'i maua atu i la'u va'ai
Le ta'avale lea na e sau ai ae tu mamao mai
Ma lona si'uleo na ou lagona "baby see you tomorrow morning"
Oi aue ita e lota fatu pei ta te oti
Ua ou maua taitaia nei ma oe i le tulimanu
A o tutu atu ai na'o a'u ma la'u fa'amalu
Ou te leiloaina ua iai seisi tagata
Talu na e apalai i le fale fai ulu a le mala

How cool is this? A Samoan country singer!!! Seki lava upu ole pese!!! This guy needs to be more recognised across the ditch (aka world)!! He needs Blake from THE VOICE to snatch him up!!!!
Waow excellent
I showed this to my in laws for the first time and they were surprised how talented Sam is.
I am a half Samoan and Fijian, but Fiji born samoan....love the song though I don't know the meaning of the song but I am sure it's more meaningful. And with what you going through I pray my brother that your songs will go far and your voice heard over and beyond for grate recognition. Love from Fiji
Im your husband not your slave in other words!!!
Absolutely. Fijian in Sydney. I love my reggae and country. This guy has so much talent. Remake and sing more Vince gill songs in whatever Samoan. Your voice is dynamite.
What do you call a Samoan wearing a cowboy hat?
Western Samoan.
Hehe. I'll show myself out.

Love the song even though I could not understand a word..the singer is so gifted luv the voice 2..love from kiribati ❣️❣️
Translation:
Verse 1
O my wife, why have you treated me like this?
You used to call me honey and your darling.
Maybe my taking care of your parents is the reason
But you swore to me it was good in your sight.
I was pounded by the chores I did many times
While your brothers went hanging out and bus riding.
I sleep at night while shedding tears.
It’s as if I am a serpent being slain while it’s eyes are open. (Samoan proverb/metaphor)
Chorus
I am not a faalifu maker (faalifu: a Samoan delicacy/dish) and nighttime security.
I’m not a laundry boy and a pot cleaner.
I’m not an offspring of an animal that you can treat me like this.
The cocoa pounding bowl is there for you to have for a husband.
Verse 2
You thought I didn’t catch sight of that car you came in, that parked off some distance.
And I heard his voice say, “Baby, see you tomorrow morning.”
O my heart, it felt like I was dying.
I saw you around the corner while I was standing alone with my umbrella.
I didn’t know there was another man since you applied for a job at the transvestite’s salon.
But, girl, return my rock. (Sung after the last chorus to end the song. The rock he refers to is a very smooth rock that is used to pound cocoa seeds to make Samoan cocoa.)
