Stan Walker, Ultralight Beam. Dedicated to Sean Wainui | LIT REACTION 👀😭

[@epiphany519]

Stan won season 6 of Australian Idol. He's a cancer survivor (literally has no stomach) from a cancer that runs in his family. The band is "The Levites". The Background Vocals are "The Standard". You REALLY REALLY want to react to their mashup of Amazing Grace / I Surrender. Do NOT have throwables near you. Maybe have a church hanky or a pillow you can hang tight on to and per my prior email I would love to have you react to that with your Mom (or, at least show it to her) who, if memory serves, is a pastor or worship leader. Honestly, it's ALL that.

[@simplyhere3893]

This is the best music ever! Stan Walker has a video on KZbin that documents his and his family’s fight against the deadly stomach cancer that devastated his blood line. Faith this is thee best reaction I’ve seen on this AMAZING Cover. I love how he tweaked the lyrics.

[@marvaleneelston1534]

I just watched Stan’s documentary on KZbin! Simply amazing. He has been through some THANGS! Wow such a blessing! All need to hear his music and read his story to know that God is still in the business of performing miracles and giving restoration!

[@ashleymarcoida]

Do not have throwables near you lol

[@TiTi_562]

Thank you for the info

[@shaolinghost1613]

He flet Australia was racist so he moved back to his home country new Zealand

[@sherryf3495]

I've watch EVERY SINGLE REACTION to Stan's cover of Ultralight Beam, and sis, yours is what I've been waiting for all this time. No need for analytical talk, just straight up real feels. I agree, there are angels with voices such as Stan and the Levites who truly deserve global recognition, if not for the money, but for the inspiration that would be felt, seen, heard by millions. Ngamihi nui kia koe, a massive thank you for your reaction sis!

[@whalien8515]

I was just about to say the same thing!!! Yesssss, I even got excited and vibed along with her reaction even though I’ve watched it nth times😍😍😍😍😍 she had fun with it and actually appreciated every single detail like the bass?! Yes! It was so disappointing hearing the bass and no one who reacted to the video picked up on it😫😫 straight up feels!!💜💜🔥🔥

[@caitlinstockman1747]

Feel this in my soul!! Thanks Faith!!

[@berserkeradventures1859]

Hell yes it is she is what we was waiting for .... love your reaction the cuzzy Stan is our national treasure girl he's the best of the best

[@MarkJames_275]

Straight up agree with u 💯 I thought the same thing. It’s beautiful watching reactions of others outside our nation aye? ❤☺️

[@Fuckwhatyousay25]

Mauri ora sis

[@melanieoakley8740]

Stan is not a sell out to the evil of the music/film industry and that is why he is not as well known.

[@caitlinstockman1747]

Siiiiis this is the best reaction vid of Stans I've seen!! 😂 He's actually quite well known Down Under!! He's a Maori boy from rural New Zealand who grew up in the church and came to fame after winning season 6 of Australian Idol... like you say he had a rough time in the industry and almost died from cancer(he has a documentary available on youtube if you wanna watch it!). Since then he's shaken off the industry and come home to NZ and reclaimed his sound.... he's a massive advocate for our people and has managed to actually bring our native language to the mainstream media in our country and has bilingual, english and maori songs. We now hear our language everyday on the radio and tv in large part to his efforts and those of many Maori artists. He's also a big supporter of BIPOC's(Black, Indigenous, People Of Colour) struggles and will support them whole heartedly hence the reference to the Black Lives Matter movement... he also supports the efforts of Mauna Kea, Standing Rocks and West Papua and many other movements world wide. This song is originally a Kanye West song that he remade and dedicated to a man who's name is Sean Wainui who was also a religious man and quite famous here in NZ for sports but passed away in an accident leaving his widow and children. Stan's the man!! 😂

[@bgodwn68]

His Amazing Grace cover will have you out your seat and running around the room looking for things to throw 😂🙏🏻. Sooooo good 🔥

[@octavius5822]

THIS please, it's one of the best versions i've ever heard!!

[@dannyt6243]

THIS ONE YES!!!!!!!

[@dionteahu]

Yes please ❤

[@tane5802]

I was captured by your reaction! We in Aotearoa truly appreciate his talent and he doesn't get nearly as much airplay as he should. Thanks for your appreciation!

[@ellemcpher8835]

Loved, LOVED your reaction! You made me laugh with your comments and you hit the nail on the head at the same time. Stan didn’t want to be told what to sing by the studios but sing what was in his heart. He’s a New Zealander by the way, specifically a proud Māori ❤

[@robynnegraham1986]

Can I add to @ellmcpher8835 comment the Stan wrote 'Inventing Myself' in response to the Music Industry mindset. I see many have covered some of his pearlers for you. I loved your reactions girl. Cheers

[@NAVOSAhighlanders]

Im always a big fan of STAN WALKER..You haven’t heard some other Polynesian singers like MAOLI,JOSH TOTOFI,FIJI,etc there’s a lot. Most Polynesians are born with this talents cause it’s part of our culture we sit around as family having some traditional drinks and everyone is singing some local village musics. Love the reactions too🔥🙌🏽💯🇫🇯🇫🇯

[@dharyin357]

Stan Walker - Amazing Grace Stan Walker - Amazing Grace Stan Walker - Amazing Grace Stan Walker - Amazing Grace Stan Walker - Amazing Grace

[@roweboat899]

Stan has been well known in New Zealand and maybe Australia for over a decade. You should check out “he kakano ahau” by Stan. It’s a te reo Maori song. (The indigenous language of NZ. Stan is Maori, and there’s something special about him singing in te reo Maori) or “Aotearoa” by Stan (and others) Aotearoa is the native name for New Zealand.

[@81stefany]

Subscribed, because your point of view was lit and factual. Stan is an inspiration to all New Zealanders and Australians. His voice is heaven among others from NZ. Thank you for you statements about him singing ALL LIVES WILL MATTER, WHEN BLACK LIVES MATTER, that and that alone speaks for itself. Stan is someone whom we cherish and honour, HE IS OUR TAONGA/GIFT FROM HEAVEN. Listen to Amazing grace you won't be disappointed. KIA ORA FROM AOTEAROA/NEW ZEALAND

[@georgeibrahim7945]

Stan Walker us from NZ and won our last Australian idol. His vocals are phenomenal especially with his health battles and having no stomach. Can you also react to Australian artist Guy Sebastian “battle scars” live acoustic at the home front, he won the first Australian idol. If you loved Stan you will love Guy Sebastian just as much this dude is phenomenal

[@justlinsu]

Yes George I loved her reaction and would also love to see her respond to Guy Sebastian...

[@zybenson3367]

Listen to his amazing grace arrangement. It’s amazing. 😊. Also his song “tua” and then “bigger” in the same reaction. He sings it in two languages.

[@bellelarss4232]

Its a Kanye West cover but Stans version is better than the original 😅. He deserves to be on a world stage, but keeps his life humble, which makes him even more amazing!

[@lisaberland225]

Stan is a precious gift to New Zealanders beautiful soul...he is a power house but chooses to live on his home soil with his beautiful wife and children...he has been through a serious health problem and has come out the other side. He has a powerful strength and mana. He is very loved and treasured by Kiwis and people world wide. Thanks to Kanya West for allowing Stan to sing his song 💖🇳🇿

[@justval5795]

"You call me?" LOL!!! Stan is so underrated in this country. So, for a religious experience, check out Stan's "Amazing Grace" and "Way Over Yonder." For something that may make you feel something you need to repent about later, check out "Pillowtalk" and his and Vince Harder's "Valentine's Day Dedication."

[@tonyapatterson7335]

😂😂😂she messed me up with that one!

[@Merro959]

Stan’s voice is pure magic. Brings me to tears every time. Thank you for this reaction ❤

[@jms3911]

Sister, it's cool to see you react so authentically. Clearly passionate and funny. Keep up the good work. Loved the runs you did just off the cuff and effortlessly too! Stan's the man. React to 'New light', 'Bigger' and his Valentines dedication with Vince Harder to really, really appreciate his vocal chops.

[@jms3911]

S: I'm just tryin to keep my faith.... F: ...You called me?! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Mz_brownley16]

Loved your reaction to Stans Ultralight Beam he is definitely underrated I wish the world knew who he is and listen to his music 🥰

[@robinsonsebastine7410]

Yeah Stan you better sing that song...😍I literally screamed Amen while watching...🕺🕺😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@apikaerakemp8698]

Agree.❤ Its artist like Stan who can sing live with the accompanying band and back up singers doing songs like this that wont get any recognition. Praise God for platforms like yours that can reveal them through KZbin or we will be denied hearing real talent & gifts. Iif your not from NZ . We have a few talented artist here my favs... Aaradhna you'll love her, Teeks, LAB, Six 60, Maisy Rika Love your reactions IYKYK ❤❤❤

[@celestelittek7360]

All lives will matter when black lives matter...key message ❤ He is a Maori from Aotearoa New Zealand...check out his latest song I Am

[@BiltsOne]

Great reaction. Stan Walker is a Legend as a Pacific Islander (Maori-NZ) artist. He's literally had stomache cancer and can still sing like that. Very inspiring.🤙🏾

[@fookutube501]

Faith is real talk,no hiding the truth from her..Awesome reaction Faith much Aroha(❤) from New Zealand

[@elamothe81]

YES YES YES FAITH! This the reaction I been waiting for since he first showed up on my recommended videos! Check out them doing amazing grace and don't dream it's over for starters!

[@behinddreaming]

His cover Don't Dream It's Over is amazing. Love hearing some of it sung in Māori

[@twitch5832]

[@dalilasloft73]

[@tunein2rissa]

When Stan sings, he sings every word with his chest! Meaning, when this man sings, it hits you fr.

[@vivianskipper2578]

Amazing Grace is definitely another one of his cover songs that just feeds your soul and spirit. He's a one of a kind❤❤

[@nikismith1871]

Mmmmm❤️ I hear you ❤

[@zaelenemaxwell-butler8253]

Aotearoa New Zealand keepin it real. Appreciate that you recognise real talent and agree with you about what is played on the radio.

[@colleentanaanderson2831]

[@LLtheeworshipper]

I can't get over his falsetto! The ENTIRE group is A-1 talent!

[@kuuipokey4778]

There’s so many! Amazing Grace, Don’t Dream It’s Over, Tennessee Whiskey, Valentines Day Mash up 🔥🔥🔥

[@maryannesmith1392]

We have great respect for Stan down here…..his music is awesome. Please listen to Stan singing songs in his native language…they are beautiful.

[@broniex14]

Stan is one of my favourite singers. I always look forward to hearing his voice - his new album is fantastic. ❤

[@tlight11]

more please :) lol you're awesome and we love new stan fans - welcome welcome 😊

[@Airtime226]

Labels don't like real talent cause you can't control real talent the way you can control manufactured talent...and that scares the hell out of them...this man is in the elk of Whitney and Bruno...God given...period

[@keahibaby808]

I loveeee your reaction omggg. You should listen to his and a few other artist sing How Great Thou Art, literal tears. Also his Tennesse Whiskey cover. Or any Stan Walker and Vince Harder cover - their Valentines Medley is bombbbb

[@yvonnebarretta]

I'm glad you love our Stan and his Levites as much as we do♥

[@laurenabobbit4786]

Appreciate them indigenous vibes, much love sis from the Māori nation

[@tonyapatterson7335]

I HAVE LISTENED TO YOUR REACTION TO THIS BECAUSE ITS EVERYTHING I FEEL!!!! I literally feel every beat, run, instrument of this song and his vocals are OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!! The LEVITES TOOK US SOMEWHERE I HAVE NEVER BEEN! Your reaction is the ONLY ONE that does it justice!!! I cry every time I hear this song it just penetrates my soul!!!

[@niwhacreative6640]

[@pepelokeni5347]

love your vibe with our New Zealand music - bless you

[@davinalucas9275]

Your reaction has been the best I have seen yet ❤

[@dolphindeb56]

Faith, Come to Australia.. You will hear the best artists on the Radio over here! Stan is much loved here! There are so many awesome Aussies & New Zealanders (which is where Stan is from although he was found on Idol in Australia. ) Have you hear Guy Sebastion, Delta Goodrem, Jessica Malbouy, Oldies John Farnham Jimmy Barnes. I hope enjoy a wonderful DownUnder music discovery! There truly is something in the water here lol! hugs Debbie

[@TiTi_562]

Faith said they drinking something premium 😂When I first saw this I was at work and stopped what I was doing to tune in… face screwed up and all…. I promise I was listening but I was like he’s handsome and then they all look good. That base gave me chills. The harmonies was insane and their runs 😩

[@shaunpetty6146]

That's the bro stan walker from New Zealand, he's amazing huge talent and has heaps of great songs, so glad you got to experience it

[@stevecampbell4043]

[@stevecampbell4043]

[@earth2chy699]

I have seen all reactions to this, and you by faaar have been my favourite reaction! You replayed the best parts (all the bits I replayed also lol) and your voice alone is🔥

[@kawhia07]

You are the best reaction judge ever!!!!! Your actions speak volumes because they are genuinely honest. I thank you for that. ❤❤❤

I have been watching him for the last two weeks. Can't get enough

[@Cons1]

Yip amazing grace… will be a good vid to review.. ( Stan Walker ) New Zealand 💯

[@tanajones9609]

Should play 'He Kakano Ahau' by Stan. It's sung in our native language Maori. One of my favorite songs 🥰❤

[@MrMmnngghh]

100% backup on that. Guessing Faith will dig the harmonies on that one too.

[@sharikinita4278]

Yaaaas snap this my fav song to shows our culture 100 percent

[@cj8172]

Great reaction sister. Much love from New Zealand. God bless.

[@Teriteri22]

Yes! Your reaction was exactly the way we all felt when we first watched it. New follower here 😊

[@onicafoster6480]

This I'd the 4th time I've watched this reaction. Lol. They're AMAZING! They are "Kiwis" (from New Zealand). Soooooo many people from New Zealand have amazing mucianship like this!

[@leilafaletau8042]

That’s what a reaction video should look like!! ❤❤❤. Stan and his back up singers are Polynesian descent. The majority of Polynesians are self taught, most have never taken lessons to play instruments or voice lessons including Stan.

[@elahhale9057]

Love your reaction . You are so right 👍🌠

[@als423]

Lol you reaction is the best ❤️ more Stan!

[@melodieprakash3233]

Yup we proud New Zealanders love Stan & his crew but I really enjoyed this video and your reaction ❤️

[@jachobe500]

This is my favorite reaction to this video BY FAR!!

[@jamielmatenga4844]

New zealand talent ..stan is maori ..he even opened for Beyonce when she was here ..its on youtube too ...and da levites are fire too

[@apikaerakemp8698]

[@nanniibee]

Best reaction to this song ❤ I love Stan's talent. He makes your inner soul shine like the sun ❤

[@TBHNotGonnaLie]

[@Fuckwhatyousay25]

Video

[@kenglasson2920]

You have GOT to see/hear Amazing Grace with Stan and the Levites. Seriously, you will love it.

[@jedigaming2969]

REACTION to you is dis, you are out da gate?..Love your vibe, when I first heard him sing this I had the same feeling. Stan Walker soul and heart comes through his singing and hits you with a 100% Wow NZ mean Maori mean sing it & send it

[@tommygun222]

"Stop...you looking for me?" Absolutely love your vibes 😂🙏🏽❤️

[@timreserve]

Stan grew up in my area, he has always been able to sing (like alot of islanders lol) but he has really come into his own in recent years, one of the best versions of this song going around!! If I could recommend another reasonably unknown Aussie (at least on the global scale) i would suggest Listening to Matt Corby sing Miracle Love Live in manchester cathedral, you wont be ready for those vocals haha. Loved the reaction!!

[@mrsreti1111]

He is an icon in NZ Aotearoa, he opened for Beyonce!!! He should be global!!!
