Neil Finn - Can You Hear Us (With Lucy Lawless)

[cookster601]

ahhh , goose bumps!

[DiAnnieBananie]

2:00 Did they say "feel the power from the stars?" or "... stands"? Great song, anyway.

Go Xena!

[vackor01]

thanks for this song. I'm a big Finn's fan and I'm glad Xena particularly

...:)

Thanks again

[XenahWP]

Your welcome, I'm also a fan of his now :-)

[XenahWP]

I'd swear there were more comments on here btw... :-?

This is (quite) a few years old. The lads (Tim and Neil) did it as a supporter's song for the All Blacks (New Zealand's national rugby squad) for their appearance in the 2007 Rugby World Cup. As Neil says "The All Blacks are the greatest football team in the world and I love them all."

BTW, that "battle cry" is, in fact, just that. It's the Haka, an ancient Maori battle chant. It's important here because the All Blacks do the Haka before every match.

Hei konā

[XenahWP]

Thanks rmendell, that's very interesting. I don't care about sports actually, but I love NZ and I go with the All Blacks too ;-)

I heard Lucy got the inspiration for her Xena's battle cry on some Arabian or African women's ululations.

Haere ra :-)

Song is called "Can you Hear Us" and Tim and Neil are gorgeous and sound gorgeous too!

[XenahWP]

Thanks, I dunno why ausxip changed the title... :-S

[XenahWP]

Yep, it's a great song, I love it too, I'm really glad Lucy is on the vid, otherwise I've never heard of it I believe :-)

[cuzinpepper]

That was totally Hower or whatever his name is. And I really liked when she shook his hand hard. Hehe. Go Lucy! We were just missing Renee or her Iris playing soccer. hehe.

[evenwolvesdream]

for a moment there I also thought I heard Xena's battle cry in the background.

Quite a fun video to see.

[XenahWP]

I can hear it too, I love it! :-D

[izizful]

@evenwolvesdream i thought i heard it too but i think it was a guitar

[PriestessCharis]

I can not get this video to play. :( Is it gone? xX

[XenahWP]

I don't know, try again, I'm watching it right now.

[XenahWP]

[manlygirl07]

Thanks for that XenahWP!

[XenahWP]

Your welcome ;-)

[XenahWP]

No wonder, She's Xena LOL

Kiwis are tough women, you know, look at the other one, how she pulls down that big man when he sits on the remote! :-D

Thanks Tilde
