Mr Cowboy - Daddy Toe Sau (Suliveta Kurene Cover)

[@sulievtakurenerecords1776]

Thank you so much Sam for creating this master piece. We cried when we heard the entire song. Our father Suliveta Kurene would have loved this remake. Also for reaching out before releasing it, Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Also brother Josh for bringing this together.

This song is about a father who left his wife and children for another woman. But in the midst of his ordeal, he suddenly remembers his child crying and saying, “Daddy please come back!” “Se daddy toe sau!” He begins to feel guilty and ashamed and laments what he’d done. He begs Jesus his Lord, for forgiveness. He remembers the fires of Sheol and eternal separation from God and this makes him afraid of dying in his sin. So he pleads with God for a second chance at his marriage. He prays that he and his wife’s relationship will be restored to the way things were. In the song, he honors the woman for being a godly wife. For being a blessed woman for whom eternity awaits. Throughout the whole ordeal, it’s the voice of the child that becomes the motivation for him to return home, which brings the whole restoration and redemption story to a good ending! Wow, Suliveta was quite the lyricist. The song was written by a Christian Pastor back in the 80s. Somewhat of a redemption story! Not sure if it was based on pastor’s own personal life or just life in general, as the subject matter is pretty universal in nature. It was very popular on the radio in Samoa, back in the day. And I must add that Mr. Cowboy has elevated this Samoan classic to another level. Great job man.

[@emilykidwellarcher2629]

Thank you for this comment. I really enjoy his music, but I have no idea what is being said- so I appreciate your breakdown of it all.

[@amanaia1]

@@emilykidwellarcher2629, you’re very welcome. If you’re interested, I’ve also written somewhat of a lose translation of his other song, “E Le O Au O Se Fufulu Ulo!”, which is quite difficult to translate into English, word for word... I also shed some light, on a different post, on the cultural context from which that song is written.

[@hammadaisy9645]

Wow..I appreciate this.,I don’t understand a word but his voice is so addictive.,he’s one of my favourite.,

[@iotapelesa7275]

Oh yeah, he sure did...very talented and beautiful voice...Suliveta is a very close friend of mine way back when he was in AOG Bible College...we use to sit under the pu'a tree in my village and sing songs...and this is one of my favorite song...he graduated from Bible College and went back home... I moved to the United States in June/1985 and Suliveta went to Tutuila looking for me and ask my sister about me but my sister told him that I moved to the US...he wanted me to sing with him in one of his album... I missed him, he's a very nice person...great man of GOD...

[@iotapelesa7275]

Beautiful song Mr. Cowboy...love your voice... I love all of your songs, especially that song that sung by Jim Reeves, that song put me to sleep lol...you, Mr. Cowboy and Richard Parker are my favorite singers... I love you guys songs and you guys beautiful voices...faamanuia le ATUA ile taleni...😍

This song brings tears to my eyes and reminds me of my parents back in the island. Always treasured their hard work and all the sacrifices for me and my siblings. Thanks to the late Suliveta for this powerful song and thank you Sam Chookoon for this beautiful rendition👏👏🥰

[@smalietoa8623]

I remember when I was young..my dad only had one cassette tape in his car which is Sulivetas cassette..I always played that cassette whenever I washed his car,until I ruined it..i couldn't tell the truth because my dad was so mad..anyways this is one of my favourites on that cassette lols

He's in the top three and next week is the finale. I'm ruling for him and you could be also the American Idol winner if you ever think about competing in American Idol.
