Osage Singers at the Los Angeles premiere of Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon"
Музыка
Osage singers took to the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of Martin Scorsese's "Killers of the Flower Moon," which is based on a true story and told through the improbable romance of Ernest Burkhart (Leonardo DiCaprio) and Mollie Kyle (Lily Gladstone). On Oct. 16, 2023, Osage tribal members gathered on the red carpet as an original song, composed by Osage singer Scott George, was sung before the film screening.
Osage singers included Scott George, Kenneth Bighorse Jr., Vann Bighorse, Paul Bemore, Eddie Yellowfish, Kingston Pipestem, and Norris Bighorse. Lady Singers included Angela Toineeta, Alexandria Toineeta, Julia Lookout, Taveah George, Hannah Bighorse, Jennifer Moses and Jacque Jones.
“Killers of the Flower Moon” tracks the suspicious murders of members of the Osage Nation, who became some of the richest people in the world overnight after oil was discovered underneath their land. “Killers of the Flower Moon” also stars Robert De Niro and Jesse Plemons, and is from a screenplay by Eric Roth and Martin Scorsese, based on David Grann’s #1 New York Times best-selling book.

I jammed out to when I first heard this song too Beautiful old style song
Beautiful and powerful song. Thank you for representing our culture in a positive and strong way. I was disappointed in the results of the Oscars. Was hoping Lillie would get best actress. Blessings to all the Osage people.
We are still here!

I learned the word from the movie. I wish I could understand everything 😢 so many stories that haven't been heard by everyone. I think everyone, especially in America should be required to learn extensively about the indigenous, their culture & history. My heart breaks for all the injustices. We should all be honoring & learning the truth

You obviously don't need to know if you don't get the spirit of the haunting drums sounding their curse to you. Ask the performers if you must.

@@alanleiker1742 There are many videos of this performance now. The name in English is "Song for My People" and in their Osage language. Ask them if you're so interested. If you live in America (I don't) you should ask/contact their local community. It could be a curse given the story.

They are not cursing anyone. This sing is about feeling positive and thanking Mother Earth and Creator for keeping the Indigenous peoples culture alive and thriving. Now being heard around the world.
