  • From one dad to another... Thanks for this song. :)

  • To my brother Tiki... You are an inspiration & this song is amazing! The true man that you are shines in this song and the bs the police try to portray you as is a crime in itself! I know that all that crap has been settled and they had no right to enforce themselves upon you. But it does gripe me that you set the path of success for every brother & sister; Maori, or non and yet they try to make you out as a crim... Bless you my bro!

  • Could anyone tell me the translation of the Mouri please

  • This song is 1 of the most beautiful I have ever heard...anyone who has had a child they love stay in Starship Hospital or any other kiddies hospital understands how it feels to experience the fear of the unknown...and find the strength to face the fear....and especially the pride that comes from watching the innocent bravery of a child in hospital facing what would bring a grown man to his knees with a smile. May the angels continue to give them strength to wake up & fight another day <3

  • Another spectacular song bro. Really digging all your music, I just wish there was more of it.

    I love hearing your music that I travelled from Dubai to come see you in Waiuku, South Auckland just to find out that tickets were sold out the day before I arrived and although I had to listen from outside of where you were performing it was the best performance I've ever been to.

    Much Love and Respect.

  • Thank you for this song. I have a newborn daughter who just turned 2 weeks today. It has inspired me and created more music in return. From one artist/father to another, I thank you. This song makes me tear up, I have lived a hundred different lives and shouldn't be alive, my life has never made sense until I saw my daughters eyes a couple weeks ago for the first time. Now it's as if everything makes sense.

  • wats up with the two people who didnt like the song?

  • Kia ora Tiki! great song,great sound,great lyrics, great cause.

  • Tena koe Tiki, since getting rid of our tv set 4 years ago my son decided to teach himself how to play the guitar and read music. He now plays constantly, mixing his strumming with picking or vice versa. He always signs his name as Tiki Taane, which I found annoying. I thought you were just another Maori with too many tatoos and a guitar. After seeing this song I now share my sons passion about your music and totally tautoko your cause. Beautiful!

  • Just Perfect Brother, Ive been listening to your music for years whether it be Salmonella Dub back in the day or You solo'in it with your guitar. Since I was 9 maybe 10. I'm 15 almost 16 now, You make me proud to be a Kiwi. Possibly the sweetest role model i'll ever have. Really inspirational bro.

    Give us a thumbs up If you feel the same way =)
