Yes, ALWAYS! Lots of laughter! 😂😂

[@venianalivanisiga6419]

Love how the love for their country and heritage is displayed in their dance ! Really enjoyed watching their item for USP Open day ! Love it ❤

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Absolutely correct! It was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen! 😃😃

[@oneness1_]

Islanders know how to have fun! The joy and laughter is infectious...malo levu!

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Absolutely agree! 100 per cent!

[@forme3h]

I love it! The ikiribati always know how to put on a show.

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

They certainly do! I loved every moment of it! 😎😎

[@liamyoung1299]

Love the appreciation shown by the crowd!

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Absolutely! I took lots of other footage where there was a lot of appreciation but, sadly, the dancing was accompanied by copyrighted music so I couldn’t use it.

[@potofflowers2792]

Awesome performance my beautiful people ❤️ ♥️ 💜 💕... love from aotearoa

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

There’s another vlog on my channel you might be interested in with a performance from Rabi Islanders (Banabans). 😃😃

[@kanvrn]

Вооот это молодцы...!!! Вот умеют же люди порадоваться...!!!!!!!111

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Я рад, что тебе понравилось! Я буду загружать больше из южной части Тихого океана позже.

[@forme3h]

What’s song on @26:18? Plsss. Mahalo from Hawaii.

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Do you know, that is a question that has been uppermost in my head since I first heard it? It’s a really beautiful song. I know a few Nauruans in Suva and I’ll make a point of asking them. It has such a beautiful Pacific/Polynesian/Micronesian rhythm to it. 😃😃

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

PS. "FormEEh Ohyeah", you might also like to see another vlog I did on my channel showing Rabi Islanders (Displaced from Nauru but now living on Rabi Island in Fiji) singing and dancing.

[@forme3h]

@@ThePaleBlueDot oh. Thought that was ikiribati song. Oh ok

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

@@forme3h My apologies! Yes, you’re correct. It is indeed an ikrirbati song not Nauruan. I got my wires crossed! 😂 I will find out more about it soon as there are many students from Kiribati (including a students’ association) here in Suva and the song and its ensemble performance struck me as being incredibly beautiful. 😃

[@skelepumrqae509]

@FormEEh Ohyeah One of the oldest song from Kiribati that has been upload 9 yrs aqo so u can find it on kiribati music channel, but easy to type it tittle called:"Tai tabwarabwara".

[@beneuotabwebwentau9646]

KISA steal the show proud Kiribati 🇰🇮🥰

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

[@edwardlowrie2735]

[@solomonk3299]

and the winner is......KIRIBATI (damn this was brilliant)

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Yes, Kiribati stole the show. They were brilliant. Check out another I posted on my channel with the Banabans (Rabi Islanders).

[@myrenephillip7115]

Kisa on Top

[@Jak-Hammer]

Very good culture similar to Samoa and Tongan culture 👍 but very good performance 👍

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

Yes, absolutely. I recorded Tongans and Samoans dancing and singing during the USP Open Day but because some of the music they used was copyrighted I can’t upload their performances.

[@TeikirisoloNeiko]

Too funny 😂nice

[@ThePaleBlueDot]

There was another Open Day that I went to a few days ago much like this one.

तेरे गिरने में तेरी हार नहीं तू इंसान है अवतार नहीं गिर,उठ, चल,दौड़ फिर भाग क्योंकि जीवन संक्षिप्त है इसका कोई सार नहीं

[@atumoa1]

[@tawirandy9722]
