You sang the anthem very well! In my opinion, the NZ anthem is the third best national anthem in the world (after the Russian anthem and the unofficial England anthem - Land of Hope and Glory). But if Land of Hope and Glory [which is unofficial and only occasionally used] is excluded, then the NZ anthem is the second best "official" national anthem in the world! Nowadays, I just cannot get the tune out of my head since I heard it months ago during the Cricket World Cup. btw, I'm South African!
Tu meke e kare, ataahua rendition of our national waiata,,ive seen so many people over the years butcher this, tauke to finally hear it sung the way its supposed to..All the best kotiro, Mauri ora...
I'm Aussie Italian, and I've always preferred the Italian over it. Who wouldnt. the aussie one is crap. but this is amazing. i learned it off by heart. its now the song me and mates sing when we are out drinking (one of us is maori). Good times.
WOW who are you and why havent we heard of you before? You are STUNNING, and you make it look it so easy I could listen to you allllllll day long. Its an absolute travesty that you're not out there reppn Aotearoa more often. Would love to see you at the World Cup, and am looking into making that happen. To ataahua hoki!!!!! Katahi te manu tioriori ko koe!!!!!!!!!!
Oh kia ora kare. Ko Cherrilee Fuller taku ingoa, No waikato me Whanau A Apanui ahau engari i tipu ahau i te rohe o Ngati Manawa, no reira ko Murupara taku turangawaewae. Tokowha oku tamariki.

Kia ora mo to korero i whakamana i ahau.
shoooot!! wat a mean maori voice u hav there kare.. u make aotearoa proud & hail yeh 2 the singing the world cup anthem! i jst added ur vid 2 my facebook page, lets see hw many ppl click & watch, then add it 2 their page too..lol.. kia kaha koe kotiro.. mauri ora xox
Kia ora mo to korero kare. Oh gee thanks heaps for your support. Its a bit hard to get into other sports because it is who you know and not how good you can sing. I am lucky enough for the guy putting my name forward in the league but when he don't do the event, we miss out. Gee you really showed that comment about the 'official nz anthem' would be good to see those comments
@thegclique .. who giz a rats if its not the 'official one' its the one all nz maori/pakeha & all otha races know & the way its sung here is the way its supposed 2 b sung! i'd lyk to c u sing ur version of 'god save the queen' & label that as the 'official nz anthem' & we'll c what sort of reaction you'd get then!!
Yeah i hope I get to sing at the world cup. If they do get me to sing the anthem, it won't be for NZ because they will have our famous artists singing for us.
You are the best by far girl to sing the NZ anthem. Lets hope the rugby world cup 2010 gets you to do our anthem for all games, you will make us proud. Not only do you know how to pronounce the words, but you are one of the only few that can go high in the end. Your magic chick, woop woop!
Thanks kare. Yeah I think people don't realise how important pronounciation of the Maori words are to te iwi Maori. I do the high singing at the end because i remember hearing that when i was a little girl watching dad and his mates watching the All Blacks. Hard note to hit but with the Hype of the crowd makes it easier.

What an opportunity. I'll work on on the small stuff like waitangi games in the wop wops of oz next year. Ataahua chicky, must have been the best feeling though!!
Best bloody National Anthem in the world and this is comeing from an Aussie, it's sounds so patriotic even more so than the Star Spangled Banner! I don't mind the Aussie National Anthem but the Kiwi one is so much more stirring than ours!....and should I be embarrassed that I know all the words word perfect whereas sometimes I struggle to remember all the words to Advance Australia Fair?....lol
Hey thanks for that. I am so happy we can sing in both languages. I feel proud when i sing our anthem but i have your guys anthem down too incase i get the chance to sing that here in NZ. I will sing it like i am from your country
