  • I used to listen to this back in my Boarding School days at Tuba City. I remember my sister singing this coming home from the dorms. most of the girls were singing it all the time. it was like a theme for boarding school. It brings back lots of memories of my youth. awww. *

    sniff*

  • i was there loved it .....just wish there was more natives in it

  • This song was one sung at my Boy Scout Eagle Court of Honor. That was 20+ years ago. And it continues to be great inspiration to my children.

  • I just saw them perform here in Blanding, UT. They gave a 90min performance, was simply amazing!

    IOn fact, we have 22 different Aliens Race's DNA in our blood, some aliens even consider us ROYALTY!

  • This song always moves me - - - and I ain't even an Indian!

  • I remember seeing this show in Nauvoo when I was 16. The whole show was spectacular, but this song in particular stood out.

  • Do you know if there is an schoolaship for being part of the lamanite generation? I want to be part of it by the time I get accepted. I am from mx by the way

  • My neice loves this song so much that she did the sign language for her talent n she won high school princess. She also talked about this song and what she think it ment to her n her people. It was so awesome!!

  • heard this song at school lol :)

  • why do they always have that one person who is not a native american play a native american part??

  • Reminds me of home, how I miss the Hopi/Dine Reservation. But school needs to be finished first. Where can I find the music sheets for the song? The link does not work.

  • we sang this in 3rd grade. it still gives me goosbumps. its so pretty

  • I sang this in 6th grade also during the DARE graduation ceremony with my class. We had to do the signs with it too. I'm Cherokee and Apache.

  • really?

    tha cheif had to be white?

    thats messed up!

  • ha ha this from a mormon religion that teaches that natives are a cursed people and need to become white like a whiteman! stupid to believe these LIES! I like my native brown skin it is you "mormons" who are cursed. another whiteman religion trying to put down native american history and heritage! pathetic!

  • @beone011 and @nativepridebaby:

    These cast members are not white. They are BYU students and Mormons, but it just so happens that in order to be a cast member of Living Legends you have to be Polynesian, Native American or Latin American.

  • haha thats leland in the beginning! i don't know how many times i've seen living legends perform every year for heritage week... they always do a good job!

  • Lovely C:

  • cheehee. dis song is the best!

  • My father was Cherokee, but I am adopted, and was born without Indian blood, so I can never be accepted as a Cherokee.

    Never the less, I don't know why, but when I first heard this song, I was moved to tears of pride, hope, and joy.

    As a student at Brigham Young University, I learned the song, and now you can see my own amateur version on YOU TUBE, which admittedly, doesn't begin to compare with this.

    Congratulations on a fantastic production!

  • Great! I never seen anything like this before! Thank for showing us!!

  • I sang this song a couple years ago in 2ng Grade. We dressed up like indians, it was fun. We did the finger thingy...

  • Reminds me of Elementary School

  • I sung this song back in 2002 when I graduated from 5th grade...now i'm 18 and just started college...brings back memories

  • Both my Sisters, Pat and Kathy, were apart of this, back in the day, when it was the "LAMINITE GENERATION" now it is the "Living Legends". It is still Awesome. My Daughter, did this sign language for the Graduation Class of 1999. I beaded her Eagle Feather for her cap. I'm very proud, of my Native American culture. I wish I could see the Living Legends. Keep it up!!!

  • Translated Portuguese - Vai meu filho, vai escalar a escada. Vai meu filho, vai ganhar sua pena. vai meu filho, faz seus povos orgulhosos de você. trabalhe meu filho, começe uma instrução. trabalhe meu filho, aprenda uma boa vocação Escale meu filho, vá tomar uma vista elevada. Na escada de uma instrução. Você pode ver para ajudar sua nação indiana. Alcance meu filho, e levante seus povos acima com você.

  • There are many Indians/Lamanites/ whatever name you are most comfortable with getting an education and helping their people out. I like their dress in here because , to me, it's respecting their history, and people.

  • Just another name for the most of the Native Americans.

  • Over 10 years ago the 'Living Legends' cast and crew came to New Zealand and performed this amazing collection of indigenous dances to our people and I was soooooo overwhelmed with the 'First Nations' section of it all - this song I remembered since that first night! I've never heard it since, but I've remembered it! Thanks soooo much for posting this. God bless!

  • Thank you so much for sharing this. It was very uplifting and nearly bought me to tears. Blessings to you and your loved ones.
