    I am not Polynesian, but I love the fact that they really did their research on the culture in order to make this movie, it makes it even more beautiful. When I see all the comments from Polynesian people on youtube saying they love this movie and the soundtrack (especially this opening), I feel so happy for them :D
    Makes me wish Disney made a movie based in sub-saharan Africa (don't get me wrong, I love the Lion King but it would be nice for us to have a movie with actual humans lol) with an African princess and African music and based on African tales. That would be the BOMB.

      I was literally saying that to a friend. I am not even Polynesian I am African and hearing that song gave me goosebumps and filled me with emotion. It was surreal, like an energy or spirit flowing through the sound and through the theatre. I didn’t even understand the words (which doesn’t bother me cause I listen to a lot of music from different cultures in their language, it’s about the feel and the sound for me) but it was very profound. Very awesome

    Tagaloa is the Polynesian God. This song opens up the movie. Tulou means excuse me or pardon me in samoan. I'm thinking this song or chant is actually a request to Tagaloa in allowing the film makers show case the Polynesian Culture to the world.

      Gigatt TyG you're right on that. it's a form of respect for the ocean and to acknowledge it's right to existence. this is how Polynesia is formed thru these journeys that our ancestors have been far. from Samoa and Tonga, Fiji, Hawaii even New Zealand. this is what unites us altogether. 😊

      Disney has a habit of hinting at that in its films, that there is a much deeper meaning to everything from opening scenes to small little lines. After reading this comment and now knowing this when I went to see the movie--thank you for making me more knowledgable about this beautiful culture--I immediately began to tear up when I heard it and saw the opening logos. It makes this song that much more beautiful, just like understanding the words of He Mele No Lilo.

It's beautiful, it's fun, it's funny, it's clever, it's well done, and it's a solid holdup of the Disney name. This is easily one of Disney's best movies. I don't know if it's THE best, that would be a pretty tall order, but it's definitely one of the best. Top five easy.

The soundtrack is great, I wished they put the translation on some of the songs but at the same time, hearing a song in a different language is great too when done right. And obviously, this song is a great example of that, it reminds me of the beginning credits of the Lion King in that the beginning song is sung in the language the movie is taking place at. Anyway, thanks for sharing the Samoan translation of this song, much appreciated. :)

    I'm not Polynesian, but honestly it's been a while since this movie came out and honestly listening to this once again-fully appreciating it and learning it's meaning-really makes me take in and start acknowledging and appreciating my own culture. Culture is a beautiful thing. It's so beautiful, music is such a beautiful thing the way it can evoke emotions and chills out of people who may not even speak the language. Love, from a very inspired Nigerian-American!

    • @MaluluKeleGuiSila
      @MaluluKeleGuiSila 7 лет назад +4

      It is a Karanga. In Samoa, it's called 'Alaga (same thing as a Karanga). It's a chant in reverence to Tagaloa (in Maori its Tangaroa).

    This gives me chills... I really wish this song in particular was longer.
    I am not of the same ancestry, but I am of similar ancestry, I am from island hopping Greeks. So this movie has really spoken to me on a level that I did not expect.
    This song and others in this soundtrack, speak to my soul, in a way that is hard to explain. This makes me want to visit Hawaii again. and more so;
    This movie has made me want to visit my ancestors culture, Know "where I am", "who I am', and "how far ill go", "I know the way". Thank you Disney "You're Welcome".

      Sadly though the lyrics that were used in Brother Bear's transformation scene was actually a Bulgarian folksong. It's completely different from traditional Inuit and Athabaskan cultures and songs that Brother Bear was supposedly based on. The creators of that film made a back-handed remark about this, claiming that barely anyone in America would understand Bulgarian folksongs. So they intended to use a foreign singing group for its "exotic qualities". Typical Disney. This was not even a surface level research. It was so disingenuous on their part. A big flaw in the production of Brother Bear.
