Ойын-сауық
FILMED BY TAGATA PACIFICA - SUN PIX
29th June 2017 . Vodafone Pacific Music Awards
There are no words to express how Thankful & Honoured we were to be asked to put this together for the Living Legend Opetaia Foa'i & Te Vaka.
#ThankYouForTheMusicOpetaiaFoai
#ThankYouForTheMusicTeVaka
#VPMA17
Nainz shared with our Team & our Performers, that Out of all the Pacific Bands he knows, no other band has represented Pacific Music to the world, like Te Vaka has.
For this Tribute, we wanted to go BIG, and use our SUPA Kids to perform it, so Opetaia, his family and the Te Vaka Band, could experience what the World must experience watching & hearing them Perform especially through the Beautiful Music written for Disney's MOANA. The Music of Moana has made such a wonderful impact to our Pasefika People especially our Pasefika Children. It was only fitting for our young ones to perform this tribute.
This tribute doesn't depict all the Amazing Music that Opetaia has written, as there are definately ones that we would have loved to perform, but this was to celebrate the Music and the work he had written for Moana.
Our young people / performers & team will treasure this moment forever...Thank You Opetaia Foa'i for the MUSIC. A well deserved award .
FA'AFETAI TELE LAVA MA IA MANUIA
To Our Family That Joined Us For This :
Aorere College Cook Island Group, Freshmans Dance Crew & BradyXL...You truly made it that EXTRA SPECIAL.

This is such a great performance. Only a very small tiny critic. On probably the last performance Peachez. She has a powerful voice, but the Band and back up singers were kind of drowning her out abit.. BUT apart from that LOVE LOVE LOVE this group. Awesome talented young kids
I live the people that are singing they are so pretty
😘😘😘😘
beautiful💖

Keep it up kids
Can i be in tone 6 with you guys
nice
That’s why I love my Polynesian people
who's that lady singing lead on "Tulou Tagaloa"? She looks a bit like Olivia but sounds a little older
"How Far I'll Go" doesn't belong in the video - it was written by Lin-Manuel Miranda (not Opetaia Foa'i)
The background dances tho 1:20
You guys are made too sing
How do I get invited to these Poly events? We ain’t got diddly squat in the USA

Can someone tell why a tribute?

Probably because he composed alot of the songs from Moana, and since Moana came out in 2016 and turned to be a huge hit, they probably wanted to make a tribute performance.
actually the movie was based on the SAMOAN culture but beautiful
