The Beauty of Cutler, reverence of the land, and for al the great spirit has given us, .. beautiful. I am not Native, My spirit is, i however, have learned from my Shaman, and believe with the anishinabe, The original people.
Really, women are not sposta be at the drum, well jusso u knw, if it wernt for our women our nation would not hav survived ths long, so i for one do not hav a problem wth a woman sittin at the drum as long as she is walkin the Red Road an not on her moon. And you can thank the wasicu's for the plastic chairs,a great invention! An im an American and LOVE the flag!! Niyepi waslolyesni henicapi!!!
women are not suppose to be singing at the drum, i dont know what tribe allows them to do that but i know the lakota and most plains tribes women are not allowed to sit at the drum, they can only stand behind the men and sing.
does it matter what colour of skin someone has ? Im white / European i enjoy this music just love it. What happend centuries ago is dispicable and should never happend. No need to be hating each other now
I respect tradition, but do not be offended of women drumming and singing because many men chose not to express themselves and these women will carry songs for our future generations!
its not the material world that is to be worried about we heal ourselves from within and the healing will spread to your external reality. Much love to those who sacrificed there lives for us to be here god bless our vetrans. These people who "rule the land" forget what true power is because they have tainted it therefore it cannot last. NATIVE PRIDE!
mexicans dont like indians and spainiards.Spainiards dont like mexicans and indians.Indiands dont give a shit,they are pure,naive kids who like mather nature and all people.
@Kowl i am sorry man,what are you?And i am dont wont to sound narrow minded but in general its truth,even if it dos not applying to you.I been in Spain and alloverthe world to know the difirence,and you right about good and bad i never sad that mex or spain was bad its just the way people have they way,again in general.
Amazing heard this music when I was 8 or 10 years old in S.Dak, our ranch was butted up to the rosebud reservation. Just for the interested out there. You would never hear a Lakota on the reservation refer to himself as a Sioux. Their name for themselves (Lakota meant friend) the other tribes called them Sioux which means Snake.
American is a nationality, not a blood line. As is European, African or Mexican. People born in Canada, USA and Mexico all the way south to Brazil and Venezuela are all "Americans" by continental origin... Why is it all the nut jobs are drawn to very ethnic oriented locations on the web?
@914light What's sad about it? Would you rather them sit on the ground and have Canada flags in the background? I see nothing "sad" about a group of people maintaining their language and culture, while still expressing their patriotism.
@MrAnimeLoverXXX ..well dear ..you will be hard pressed to find a more magnificent people then the indigenous of either country ... however their culture was NOT about promoting plastic ...and that's nothing patriotic about honoring the flag of a system that tried to wipe them out !! it's a beautiful song !! Take Care
@914light i don't think it's sad at all. talk about dwelling on the past. they still retained their culture, didn't they? ask any native american veteran if he thinks it's sad that they're flying american flags
@stro555 Obama is voted down by 40+ states that have no reservations. Obama is not effective facing career politicians who play politics everyday. Do not vote democrats into office as they love illegal mexicans and give them jobs that belong to All Americans. Google it and see the truth with respect to my bro's
Matt 10884.....A "man" doesn't call a woman a "hen". This warrior could teach you some respect. Is your mom, sister, daughter, wife, niece or grandmother a chicken?? Mine aren't either. Everyone grow up. Walk a mile in our moccasins then repost. I admit this wasn't our best performance but we were trying. At least we weren't rapping! I love all of you in the Pacific Northwest! Reunion at Siletz???
If you are respectful, you ask what people call themselves. I am Sicangu Lakota. Sungska....If it makes you feel better, we don't sing as a group. We do sing with some well known groups....me, in the second circle at the drum; my wife, standing behind my in the third circle. Wapioke....As a fellow singer you might want to consider encouraging other singers instead of letting your insecurity surface.
Wow! So much negativity about something so beautiful. The pessimist sees a couple of females singing at a drum. The optimist sees two adults traveling all over the Plains with a few teenagers; showing the kids something positive instead of drinking, smoking and disrespecting themselves. BTW we did ask before doing so. We had our Elders' blessings. Hey Raymond and Greg. I miss you guys. This is Shane. I had to create a name so I could respond to you. Sorry it took so long.
Rofl, the arguing on this thread is just too Ironic. Thanks for posting this video, I for one really enjoyed it...and yes, that girl's voice is totally bad-ass.
@99cacahuate Technically All North American Natives are roughly 33% Caucasian. Native American origins are from Asia, Australia, And Europe. Which is really cool. Because it means the whole world owns the land. Truly a testament to the American way.
Technically all land is stolen. And long before the whites came, the Mississippi Valley civilization was stealing land from other natives. All land is stolen. And that land was stolen before it was stolen, onto eternity.
@99cacahuate Nope. That's my summary of humanity. Whites don't discriminate and hate everywhere they settle, all of humanity does. Shall I go through the list? I think I will Humans to Neanderthals China to Japan Japan to Korea English to Blacks Egyptians to blacks Blacks to Egyptians Romans to the Gauls Huns to the Romans Innumerable Native American tribes to each other Persians to the Greeks Greeks to the Dacians Germans to the Romans Eh, that should be enough. As you see, mankind is a thief.
As a simple matter of fact, there is no nation, group of people, nor culture innocent on Earth. All peoples have been slaves at one point in time or another. It is in our genes. We humans quickly slaughtered our fellow hominids millions of years before "race" or "nation" ever existed. Only now, after eons of blood spilled, does one see the true nature of man. A proper logical man can only chose one line of action. Reject culture and nationalism. Reject your ancestor's actions.
@99cacahuate And do you pride yourself off your people? Taking pride in what your ancestors did is lazy. You are not them. In as much as the president of Egypt did not build the pyramids, you cannot pride yourself off the majestic fighting skill and faith of your lost people. What a man does is what his worth is. No one can steal that worth. And holding onto it as his descendant is nothing short of desperation.
@99cacahuate ...2 I am actually mixed from nay peoples. 3-4% being Cherokee. My ancestors also built Stone henge, the Colosseum, the Haggai Sophia, and many others. But they also did all the things I listed before. But they did that. And now they are dead. I did not, and I could hardly care to take pride off that.
Your hatred for whites is for what? A victim's mentality? You survived. Now make something of your life and stop blaming the dead for what they did. Grow up.
@Gormanmod You are ignorant and are not fit to judge people.
It's not just what the dead have done, but what Americans, Canadians, Mexicans and other peoples continue to do today, in 2011, to the indigenous peoples of the Americas. Poverty and death and despair, the theft of land and resources from Indian people, legal rights, these are all perpetuated TODAY. That's living non-Indians! You are too ignorant to hope for improvement, but I post this to remind anyone reading this.
@nulwee Oh yea blame it on others I am Irish look back in history when there is people treated unfair there is always rich fuckers thinking they own every thing so my people did not steal or treat anyone bad I feel we are all the same there is no color or race
@ihc1963 Your comment doesn't even make sense. You being Irish has nothing to do with American Indians. If you don't think Irish Americans massacred and raped and stole from Indian people, you're pretty damn ignorant. It's called the Scots-Irish, and they were there for every massacre.
@ihc1963 You are not fit to judge the 500 different sovereign nations in this country with your broad brush and lack of wisdom. We call ourselves American Indians or First Americans by more than 2 to 1, so get your terminology straight before you start acting like you know shit.
Finally, you can call it all you want, but what you belief and what is fact is very much so different. You blame the children of people for the crimes of their father. Under this mentality, the whole of the human race is guilty, because we killed our ancestors. All men are murderers under your ideology. Nay, I say. The truth is that a man is a man, not a group, not his father. If you can't comprehend that, then it is a shame, because your ancestors did.
@99cacahuate Whites? Surely I shouldn't be blamed for what my ancestors may have done. I believe if you are born in America, then you are an American regardless of race. Regardless of where your parents are from.
@eagleeye2391 well mexicans is what the english call them, mexicanos is what the spanish call them, ACTUALLY THEY ARE MEH-SHEE-KAS ONE OF MANY TRIBES OF THE AMERICAN CONTINENT.
@99cacahuate yea i kno who the mexicas were but theres also aztecs and zapotects and mayas in what we now is called mexico therefore we are all now mexicans in mexico, native americans are not mexicans
@99cacahuate no pendejo soy mexicano, no gringo y si se que todo el continente es America pero a estados unidos se le llama America para no decir todo el nombre del pais completo, como todos decimos Mexico no Estados Unidos Mexicanos
@99cacahuate my friend we are not americans we are native landers cuz our ancesters run this land it belong to us, no matter if you are from the north or south we are a great race and we should allways be proud of it
@99cacahuate my friend we are not americans we are native landers cuz our ancesters run this land it belong to us, no matter if you are from the north or south we are a great race and we should allways be proud of it
@DeanFingers well those things that happened hundreds of years are still to this day going on......it's just some people refuse to see it that way.....ever heard of whites invading other countries to steal their resources? or calling natives of this continent " illegals, wetbacks, or even alliens " ha ha
@99cacahuate also, the spanish (who settled mexico) killed millions of native americans - in mexico and south america. while american settlers decimated populations, the spanish literally wiped them out (ever heard of the aztecs?) try doing some research before making such a belligerent claim
@DeanFingers well spanish are WHITE too.....and when i said " native americans " means FROM ALASKA TO TIERRA DEL FUEGO( ARGENTINA ) TO ME ALL OF THEM ARE NATIVE AMERICANS TOO... maybe you're right i should say europeans and not whites.
@username4Y ther singing about a battle. this a traditional dance contest song. yu can hear the infuenc of the battle that there singing about in the loud beat. when that beat is hit all the dancers will duck down to dodge bullets (akathe loud beat)
once again..this is my brother and his family at rosebud fair. wherever this song came from..it is sung all over the damn place and in different ways. respect!! it is up to each individual and each drumgroup to have women sit at the drum or not. people talk about how things used to be and how it should be but do we really go by that way anymore? if each tribe did, we'd all have respect and understanding. so just enjoy their beautiful voices..if not, listen to a different song! much love bro! pce
Women/girls are NOT supposed to be at the drum, this tradition goes way back since the beginning of time. Respect the traditions! ASK a Lakota Elder. Almost all of our sacred rites are being destroyed by contemporary indians, we need to go back to who we really are.
NOT TOO BAD ON THA SINGIN' BUT THESE KIDS NEED TOO KNOW THE SONG BETTER IF THEY ARE GOING TOO SING THIS KIND OF SONG.THIS IS A NEZ PERCE HONOR SONG SO THIS SONG COMES FROM MY PEOPLE AND I HATE TOO SAY THIS IF A NEZ PERCE ELDER WERE TOO HEAR YOU GUYS THEY WOULD GIVE YOU A GOOD TALKING TOO.BUT LEARN THA SONG BEFORE YOU SING IT
@rollerzonlyrida Then can you help me understand the true way of life i believe by having this type of music inside me i shall have no fear in of anything or anyone....Im a 22 year old guy born in america but family from haiti...I always knew something was about the indians since i was very young..it was something inside me i think thats why im so gentle and kind they call me the gentle giant in school.
@rollerzonlyrida this is not a nez perce song-it's true the nez perce sing a duck and dive but this is not the same song...up in Canada there is a duck and dive same as in the Crow country...nez perce can keep thier song.....lol
I was born a Christian & Christened in the Church of England, however I am not a practising Christian, it saddens me when I see people on here slaiting us WHITES as bad people...I am far from a bad person, I respect Mother Earth, i'm a reiki master & would rather heal then kill...I'm not & never have been a greedy person, I love true Native American culture & am trying to learn Cherokee. i'n my opinion people should live & let live! Respect to earn respect, Love & peace to all & Wado for the vid
@YorkieDeb the thing is if people do not act against and defy bad elements in this world then all the people who are sleeping in this world are not good either... and the greater sins of others seal our fate also in the process... you might live well.. you might be polite and appreciate other cultures.. but words have no purpose unless there are acts of great generousity to give them life.. most humans should be scratched of the earth besides the ones that make the difference
Assuming this is actually in the Sioux language, can anyone tell which dialect (Lakota, Nakota, Dakota, etc), and does anyone know what the words mean in, say, English?
@Tradishndn How would one express the same sentiments in English, and what is the actual language in which it is being performed? If in Sioux, there seem to be several variants. For that matter, what are the actual words?
@angriffeins it's pretty hard to explain the Dakota language into english, yes it has been done but the dakota language has a deeper meaning than what english can express
@giggs12d3 I understand the difficulty of translation . . . I speak several languages (European and Asian) . . . but there are "correspondences" (to borrow from Baudelaire) that make it possible.
Well who gives a crap about the indian word. Here in our part of SD we are LAKOTA. Sicangu Lakota. We are proud to be!! Wherever this song came from..it was sang by very beautiful people with beautiful voices. Can you sing? Red Land rocked this song. Thats it and thats all. Pce
@larv0964 I have to agree with you about the "indian" word, let it go already. I realy miss Shane , Noella, Whitney (kudos on the upcoming graduation), and Tashina, wish I could see them all.
@Tradishndn yeah Noella another woman and I just "wicaglata'd" last night at a small powwow after honoring Whit. It was fun. Noella has a strong beautiful voice as well. By the way who's this? hee
The beautifully powerfull, bright shining voice of the young Native girl (on the left), brings such immense joy to my heart when I hear her sing this song that her ancestors have been singing for thousands of years. Continue the journey of our proud people and always keep singing!
@nativegirl1828 If you don't mind a Washitsu comenting. I was a Vista on Rosebud many many years ago. I learned to love the music and the people there. When I hear this music I tear up with the beauty of it. I am so glad the pride in self has come back so strongly. Good on ya and Waste'
This is my brother Shane and sister in law Noella. They are called Red Land. This clip was from Rosebud Fair Powwow. Enjoy!!!! Don't hate!!! Talia sounds badass!!!!!
@larv0964 i miss these guys-- all of these people are who sat at my drum at one time or another-- tell them that Grampa passed on Nov.30th last years for me
This is my brother Shane and sister in law Noella. The wicaglata is Talia. She sounds badass!!!!!!Women do sit around the drum around here. Don't hate, just enjoy!!!!! I love em all!!!!! Sounds cool!!!!!!!
The Beauty of Cutler, reverence of the land, and for al the great spirit has given us, .. beautiful. I am not Native, My spirit is, i however, have learned from my Shaman, and believe with the anishinabe, The original people.

@ihc1963 You are not fit to judge the 500 different sovereign nations in this country with your broad brush and lack of wisdom. We call ourselves American Indians or First Americans by more than 2 to 1, so get your terminology straight before you start acting like you know shit.

Finally, you can call it all you want, but what you belief and what is fact is very much so different. You blame the children of people for the crimes of their father. Under this mentality, the whole of the human race is guilty, because we killed our ancestors. All men are murderers under your ideology. Nay, I say. The truth is that a man is a man, not a group, not his father. If you can't comprehend that, then it is a shame, because your ancestors did.

@99cacahuate Whites? Surely I shouldn't be blamed for what my ancestors may have done. I believe if you are born in America, then you are an American regardless of race. Regardless of where your parents are from.

@99cacahuate also, the spanish (who settled mexico) killed millions of native americans - in mexico and south america. while american settlers decimated populations, the spanish literally wiped them out (ever heard of the aztecs?) try doing some research before making such a belligerent claim

@DeanFingers well spanish are WHITE too.....and when i said " native americans " means FROM ALASKA TO TIERRA DEL FUEGO( ARGENTINA ) TO ME ALL OF THEM ARE NATIVE AMERICANS TOO... maybe you're right i should say europeans and not whites.

once again..this is my brother and his family at rosebud fair. wherever this song came from..it is sung all over the damn place and in different ways. respect!! it is up to each individual and each drumgroup to have women sit at the drum or not. people talk about how things used to be and how it should be but do we really go by that way anymore? if each tribe did, we'd all have respect and understanding. so just enjoy their beautiful voices..if not, listen to a different song! much love bro! pce
larv0964 1 year ago
Women/girls are NOT supposed to be at the drum, this tradition goes way back since the beginning of time. Respect the traditions! ASK a Lakota Elder. Almost all of our sacred rites are being destroyed by contemporary indians, we need to go back to who we really are.

@YorkieDeb the thing is if people do not act against and defy bad elements in this world then all the people who are sleeping in this world are not good either... and the greater sins of others seal our fate also in the process... you might live well.. you might be polite and appreciate other cultures.. but words have no purpose unless there are acts of great generousity to give them life.. most humans should be scratched of the earth besides the ones that make the difference

@Tradishndn How would one express the same sentiments in English, and what is the actual language in which it is being performed? If in Sioux, there seem to be several variants. For that matter, what are the actual words?

@angriffeins it's pretty hard to explain the Dakota language into english, yes it has been done but the dakota language has a deeper meaning than what english can express
