I noticed that you sing these songs a little funny, like you made up a whole different melody to them. lol

i'm sorry if i offended you, but i would be glad to help you with some of these songs

@DakotaKid50 Better yet, grab yourself a recording program and render up the Ft. Peck versions yourself.

the sacred ways of the heyoka ceremony cannot be understood by jst anyone. its very sad people put these songs on here... learn it at sundance or sweats.. NOT youtube!!! hoka



[Inipisongs]

@MrSioux5 No heyoka ceremonies are discussed on this site. This is an inipi song.

Hi

Is there a cd I can buy or download so that I can put these songs on my ipod to learn? Thank you!

@AutumnleafMind No, but there are lots of free programs available to download them from youtube. Search "download youtube video to iPod".

dont be hating on someone who is trying to help carry on the traditions of his people instead of hating on him maybe you should as well do something productive and help by sharing your knowledge and

stop slandering the ones of us who are sharing ours

Thank you for all that you have done here. You are walking the talk. It is a Sacred Walk. It is a new world. I was told, "In the beginning it was beautiful. In the end, it will be beautiful again." We cannot help what our hearts call us to hold sacred. Those of us who volunteered to come here and not have the Ceremony walk with us outside, have missed the songs we hear in our heart. You have eased our tears. .... Earthen Girl Native Rainbow Star

@MrSioux5 you know some natives, especially the assimulated city indians do not have access to sweat or other ceremonies or live so far away from their home that they find that modern technology is the only way for them to "learn how to be Indian" again, at least they are trying. I was very blessed and privledged to have grown up around traditional ways and modern ways that I have well balanced my life. Some Natives who have had always had the traditional ways at their feet ignore that.
