Keep up the fight and throw out the French colonialism in New Caledonia and free our Kanaki brethens ..! You have the support from your lost melanesian with the roots dig deep in our islands. Jah bless!
The1980s our Brother Kanaks were fighting the French pushing for Independence.2011 Taukeis its time to fight Military Oppression, take a stand. Unions, Church leaders, Students take back our rights, our land our freedom our democracy.
Freddie had some real talent and was not afraid to share it. His music was what got some of us youngsters through the first coup in 87, and later educated us through his lyrics. You da man Fate.
je trouve aussi que c'est la plus belle melodie de rootstrata qui décrit en une chanson toute le tristesse la révolte et sucite l'espoir pour cette generation qui est la notre aujourd'hui à la veille de la prochaine election de 2014 pour savoir qu'en sera t'il de notre pays. vive kanaky et toutes la jeunesse melanesienne. Freedom to my land.
listened once n loved dis song! had no idea too they were locals! too gud! wish they continued playin man....so original, so beautiful....love dis song...n so proud they made in fiji! plis anybody,are there any vids out there? video tapes? lazer disks? clips? too gud
my best local reaggae song...roots will always hav a place in the reaggae history of fiji..
this were the times that fijian musicians actually knew how to play an instrument and make music, and not sing along to a tune from the keyboard song bank like today..when will another band like roots actually rise up again? we the fans are waiting...tribiutes to rootstrata..jah bless..
