im samoan, proud kiwiborn, this song defines why im a proud kiwi, and why it was compulsory for me to learn about the maori heritage because of the land i was fostered in, i now say that im a samoan maori, due to my beliefs and values that my cultures both share, this song will forever go down in history as one the best classic cultural songs, love love it, ka pai..

A truely great page in NZ history (thanks Dalvinius !) now lost (no thanks David Lange / Labour Party ). A great reminder of what this country used to be like before Rogernomics closed down all the Post Offices and gutted society.

[PAULB613]

Rediscovery since 1984ish London & now fallen in love with the brown-topped, white-jeaned “POI” girl who crossed the screen from left to right at 216-218 reappeared from 220-238 now always on the right moving forward till fairly close to the break dancer final appearance crossing back from right to left 256-257 Her personality amazingly stood out despite never seeing her face clearly LOL… Could anyone help in identifying her :::happy smiles::: Jim

[joannienz]

woo hoo, love this song, come from gisborne

[BlackholeJumper]

Whaka Yeah!

[hippkim007]

I listened to this song in the airplane to New Zealand about 18 years ago and I couldn"t get enough of it.Thank you so much for putting it on you tube so I can listen to it again and again and again......

[kiwibeca]

Loved the little boy at 1:08-ish. Mr Big Man. :-)

[nixluvswiz]

Best song.

[TheBishopNZ]

You just ain't a Kiwi if you don't know and love this song.

[jonifam]

Timeless, priceless!!

[smockatock]

Because im far to poor yehh lol...

[mrrangimarie]

This song holds so much happy memories for me growing up in as a yougin' in Gissie. Seeing brown faces on TV singing in Te Reo Maori back in 1984 was quite special. I remember thinkin WOW. lol Gee. Kare i arikarika!

This song always manages to put a 'smile' on my face even after 20 odd years. Thanks to the Prods of the movie Boy for puttin it on their soundtrack.

[Tyson801]

wiild dance moves!

[JakeTakamine]

Makes me so proud to be a kiwi. Still has an impact on the young! Looked over an old exam that had Poi E as one of the sample pieces, lead to my entire class singing it and our teacher breakdancing. Love it!

[BUDDY63131]

omg i move schools and thes kiwi girl had a poi E and i whanted to play with it so bad!!!!!!!!

[andy3949]

Should be New Zealands new national anthem!

[sunonthewindow]

Who remembers making poi at school with plastic bags and screwed up newspaper? New Zealand is cool as.

[Hanisipie]

Haere Mai was one of theirs too wasn't it? Who cares what those with no taste think anyway. They're "World famous in New Zealand" and extremely hard to beat. Great performers with a great song writer. Nothing but the best.

[BUDDY63131]

THUMB UP IF U PLAY WITH PO E OR EVEN HAVE ONE :D

[346jan]

[Soul7Patrol]

Thumbs up if your blasting this classic in 2011.

[desley37]

I love this song it is sounds so happy. What is it about? Can someone tell me?

[itzkolpi]

@desley37 about the Poi (the things their swinging around)

[emmelby]

@desley37 This waiata is about reconnecting urban Maori with their roots. The action of the poi is described as being like a fantail which flies all over the place. It's a metaphor for urban Maori, going here and there in the concrete jungle, trying to find out who they are. The chorus expresses this really well:

Poi E - whakatata mai (draw near)

Poi E - kaua he rereke (don't go astray)

Poi E - kia piri mai ki au (stick close to me)

Poi E - e awhi mai ra (look after me/take care of me)...

[emmelby]

@desley37 cont...

Poi E - tapekatia mai (being entwined)

Poi E - o taua aroha (our love)

Poi E - paiheretia ra (is a bond/binds us)

Poi taku poi e (my poi).

[HundredDellaBillYo]

ROFLMAO @ the wannabe MJ falla!! Churr brutha!
