Goes both ways 🇫🇯🇹🇴

This respected Viliami kuli (R.i.p) was from Lomaiviti Tongatapu, an area of fijian origins who settle from fiji by the Tongan mornachy at lomaiviti 80 decades back so they still kept the fijian voice swing mixed with the Tongan.

My ancestors are from Fiji Navai and moved to Tonga many many years ago and live in Folaha, Navai named after their home village Navai back in Fiji. The connection between Tonga and Fiji is very Strong. TONGAFISI

I'm fijian, my great grandmother is Tongan.... I just literally cry

Kia Orana everyone. I may not be Tongan nor Fijian but I love listening to this song. Every time I’m missing my Mum, I would play this extraordinary song for her. We Polynesian know how to express our love and what better way is Singing.

Wow, I found this song by accident and my wife and I are a huge fan of this singer. My wife is not Polynesian and I am Tongan. We at least played and sing along to this song daily. Even my grandkids will stopped in their tracks to listen. It is the most beautiful version of any sereima version. To top it off, the lead guitar is a beast himself carefully picking his way through this song. I heard this guy has passed on but his beautiful voice will remain with us to keep his legacy alive and well. Malo aupito

I'm Fijian & my grandpa sings this song to us everytime we drink kava. I showed this to him & he said he wants to meet this man.

Im fijian but i prefer this version from this old man...its compelling...vinaka...for this too....good

Hello everyone.

He said it's the original he use to sing back in the day with his Fijian brothers. I will post the link soon thank you for watching and supporting my uncle. One Love

Malie! Best Rendition out of all others, Malie, Wow the VOICE! Malie! Loloma from Fiti.

talk about a seasoned singer...he plays with the rhythm and timing of the lyrics to bring out the emotions of the song. Just when you think he's missed the timing, he comes right back in and gets back into it. Just when you think he's not gonna hit the note, he adjusts ever so slightly and gets it just right. This is probably the only fijian classic that i actually enjoy cause of how my late grandmother always sung it with her siblings.

😧😧😧😧🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰he sang it with tongan accent.... sooo sweet... Sa malo my tauvu frm tonga🥰🥰

Malo!!!! this is the best Sereima's song....i have heard, since i grew up in Fiji..
