  • Total either chicken-skin ( Hawaiian for goosebumps), or it makes me cry when I watch it - my absolute favorite bookmark. All of you wondeful people, looking like you either just got off work, or just turned around and came back to sing after work -- you are all totally reassuring when the world seems to be falling apart,, Don't lose it!

  • @rob3722100 I'm glad you like it and that you feel some connection despite the bad sound quality. This was filmed during a multi cultural concert. We usually wear whatever we feel like wearing.

  • Recently added this link to a page I created in Facebook. This amazing rendition needs to be shared as much as possible.

  • @Summernyts Thank you very much on behalf of '23 on a good night". We feel very honoured!

  • Thank you soooo much for that very beautiful rendition of Isa Lei!!! It is indeed a special for Fijians, but it makes it more special and beautiful, when non-Fijians sing it better than us!!! I salute you all, "23 on a good night"!!

    Vinaka vakalevu!

  • I am simply lost for words......how can you sing our farewell song so beautifully, and with such great diction and harmony, that you sound EXACTLY like us Fijians when we sing it!!! Talk about goosebumps, tears, joy, disbelief, and speechlessness all crashing down on you in one blow!!!

  • Lovely Fijian Farewell Song favoured for choir or group singing. Incidently American singer Dinah Shore once recorded Isa Lei back in the 50s - the English version of it, I believe.

  • OMG you guys did really good!!!

  • 10 STARS for this video.
