  • Reconnect to what????

  • @TrueDaturaMindNz Are you kidding? Mate if you don't know now then you never will.. some ppl take for granted the things that surround them looking to others live to find some kind of fulfilment in their own. If we all could just look around and see the cultures that we came from and the beauty within them we would better know who we are in ourselves and not strive to be something were not. Both the song and the video were epic. Keep them comin.

  • She is soooo beautiful and she rights so much beautiful songs!

  • A beautiful song that blends a hint of tradition with contemporary that follows through visually and aurally, in the words and actions. It both pulls at the memories and pushes the boundaries of the future at the same time. It is at one and the same time, heart-breaking and hopeful. That is what this song does and means to me. I absolutely love it:):):)

    I was (Tsou) from Taiwan!

  • I come from Taiwan. Austronesian countries in the northeast, is a multi-ethnic island,

    Taiwan currently has 12 indigenous ethnic groups, I was the one inside the 12 ethnic groups, called (Tsou), located in the Alishan mountain range, and Taiwan are not completely Chinese (Han).Here is the same as the Maori population , the focus is we do not like and Maori have a sound management, we gradually forget their own culture.

  • Freakin' awesome!! Top notch Maisey. Makes me home sick for Aoteroa, and long for the some of the old days / ancestors. I love the way you guys combined old with new - imagery, etc... Great cinematography / lighting / angles / mood / subject-matter - all goes beautifully with the mood of this great song. So filled with longing! I love the warrior sequences; haka and romantic moments. Also, love seeing your grand-mother (or whoever she is) - in this. Kia ora!

  • Kei te tino pai to mahi Maisey Rika, I am currently using your waiata in a presentations for teaching and linking tikanga and whanaunatanga from your waiata to the New Zealand curriculum and relating his back to Te Reo Maori and our iwi's history. I believe that you have a talent and I love the way you have linked Maori to our current colonialised civilisation. I only wish you carry on promoting MAORI as you have already lifted the hearts of me and my whanau.

    Kia Ora

  • My favourite song - soo beautiful, it does make me miss the times on the marae a lot and hanging with the whanau - thats the type of feeling i get

  • I love the feeling this song gives me. Proud to be Maori

  • yeah NEW ZEALAND rep rep.

  • Amazing!! Love it

  • Close your eyes, and picture yourself sitting on the Marae. Can you hear the birds? Feel the sun? Smell the kai? Taste the salt air on your tongue? This is my place, my home, my sanctuary. Rangiwaea Island is calling....
