Best Singers in The South Pacific?Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea | ||
Perhaps the subject line shouldn't be 'best' perhaps it should be most striking/harmonious. | ||
My vote is the Ferasubua church choir in the Lau Lagoon, Malaita, Solomon Islands. | 1 | |
Church music might be more harmonious, but to me Pidgin/Bislama language pop from PNG and Vanuatu is much more striking, interesting and better. Part of the fun is being able to understand it, of course - it's often truly amusing! | 2 | |
Definitely church - at least that is the case in Fiji | 3 | |
Some of the impromptu, Vailima-fueled singing sessions that happen outside some of the nightclubs in Apia, Samoa at closing time are truly striking and unforgettable. | 4 | |
