Ngati porou here. Just leaving my utmost aroha and respect to my taranaki whanau. I remember this song and video clip and where I was at that time. Wainuiomata 1980s. Best days of my life.

Beautiful song. Greetings from Argentina! Kia ora!

I'm 100% Samoan but I love the kiwi in me too churrr

[@nihongo02341]

Does anyone know some cool funny Kiwi videos? Maoris having a joke and chilling out? I have met a lot of Maoris here who are comedians and funny guys. I think most of you are! Can someone guide me to some funny material? These days people have too serious! We need a laugh and Kiwis do that to perfection!!!

[@independantpanda9194]

nihongo02341 it’s more of just situational crack up stuff, but if you want some comedy check out the j geeks of you haven’t already.

Indian here. Visited NZ on a 20 day vacation and just fell in love with it. Amazing nature, friendly people and the most chilled out nation I have ever been to. I was just a tourist there and I am sure Aotearoa will have its share of problems. But I am sure that its one of the best countries to live in. Just waiting to visit NZ visit again, do more hikies, drink more wine, eat more Mince Cheese pie and fish and chips.

[@tommarr5079]

It will be cool to see you come back again. I also like the mince and cheese pies😊

[@reaperp1391]

I spent a night on the town with Dal in Wellington about 1996. Went from club to club with the big man and watched him play live in a bar up Cuba Street. What a wonderful man he was. A lovely, friendly and witty man. He drank red wine, I drank rum. I felt blessed to spend time with him

This song gives me a lot of strength to overcome any difficult situation , this world put me through. I believe, it is blessed my spiritually clean Maori ancestors that is why, I am proud of our New Zealand spiritually clean Maori spirituality. I love to show this to my son in future. I wish he takes interest in spiritually clean Maori spirituality if he is guided to.

I heard this song and watched the video as a 12 year old kid in Poland. I never knew what it was or who sang it, but I loved it. Today I was converting my old cassette tapes that have been in storage for the last 20 years into MP3s. Fortunately I have taped the song. But it was not until today that I found out what it was. It took Shazam good few minute and a dozen tries but finally here I am!!!!!!!!!

[@freyastuchbery7130]

Holy shit, the Polish know New Zealand *exists?* Color me surprised.

[@rangicoleman1572]

That opening line though , gets me all the time. Then BOOM! Krank it up, lol I live in Hawera and can never drive through Patea on the way home with-out singing part of this song. ICONIC!
