hardnosethehighway 06:06 UTC 27 Oct 2008 | What I'm hoping to do here is have people post the URLs for their favourite South Pacific videos-I've spent a lot of time watching You tube videos but hadn't seen much from the South Pacific until the other night when I hit the Motherlode. Well I suppose Mother lode is the wrong term-it's more like getting into a groove here are a few personal faves. Fijian village style- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oXOP1Ij6c8 Remember these guys? It's (one of) the airport bands http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pO_LFYDMIYU Vanuatu Welcome! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1eX2PiRt5s | 1
hardnosethehighway 06:59 UTC 08 Nov 2008 | Rockin' The Cook Islands! Turn it up -this is a fabulous performance-who knew the Cooks were so much fun? | 2
hardnosethehighway 04:56 UTC 09 Dec 2008 | Some very traditional Fijian dancing from that stronghold of Fiji culture-beautiful Kadavu, then a video of a group from distant Rotuma-very old world Polynesian stylee. Hypnotic, mesmerising are the womens hand movements. Fiji & Rotuma dancing | 3
waluwalu 02:42 UTC 31 Dec 2008 | Very Tongan video Probably the funniest Tongan video you'll ever see and very very typical of the country. The singer soldiers on-her voice never falters even as mayhem reigns (rains?) around her she is well and truly a Class Act Support Staff desperately try to rescue the situation it's painfully apparent they have no direction and little idea what to do. Look at the last frame-the singer finally lets her true feelings show. | 4
raro 10:14 UTC 01 Jan 2009 | WaluWalu---pretty funny video!! (But I guess Gene Kelly and his "Singing in the Rain" dance in that 1950's movie still would win out!) | 5
