A little encouragement can go a long way, so thanks to kind words by youtube viewers here is my second song recording.

Pokarekare Ana is a love song from my home country, New Zealand. It reminds me how much I missed my home while I was overseas, so I decided to put a slideshow of my home city during the instrumental in the middle part.

The harmony in the second verse I adapted from the accompaniment, comments welcome; let me know what you think. And of course any feedback/ suggestions on the singing and recording are most welcome.

Apparently this is Hayley Westernra's version, but my sheet music didn't match the backing track too well, so I'm not 100% sure of that.

  • I listened to Hayley first; beautiful song and you sang it incredibly well and the accompaniment just made this song perfect.

  • @Desihai Thanks very much for the feedback :) It encourages me to record some more.

  • Absolutely beautiful voice. Is there any chance of you doing a recording of this in the original 3/4 time?

  • @WalneyCol Thanks! I would definitely do it if I could find a backing track in 3/4 time. Do you know of one?

  • So much better than Hayley Westenra. Thank you :)

  • @briosakt High praise indeed! Thanks!
