The laying of the Lei at the end. Is a sign of offering. Give back to the land and our ancestors before us. As the land always provides. Sign of respect
Big shout out to all the pacific islanders dj's for keeping this island style beats afloat, you guys make this singers caught up with the true pacific island beats. Especially my Malanaisian and Polynesian brothers.
This was the song that made me ask "Oh mylanta, who is that beautiful man with the beautiful voice?". Nothing like a man that can play a guitar & sing, I love it ❤
This is a cover song by Maoli. The original is by the Bellamy Brothers. He's paying respect to the land by putting the Lei on the ground. Maoli means indigenous/natives of Hawaii. Hope this helps
😂😂 you cracking me up with your reactions. Definitely a jam!! Show respect to your lady, but definitely put this on when y'all made it passed second base 😂 Big Respect!! ❤
Love this rendition and reaction! Offering lei, like Glen (Maoli lead) does, is a sign of reverence, respect, appreciation. Could mean many things, but in this case you’d have to ask him. As another commenter said, we don’t need tourists leaving their leis everywhere, mostly bc leis today are strung with synthetic fibers/string so it inevitably becomes waste. Harmful waste at that. Destructive to the environment, endangering plant and animal life. Traditionally, lei(s) were strung together by twisting vines or braiding string like fibers together and adding natural foliage on for adornment. Much aloha, and appreciation for all your reaction videos all bc of our hometown boy Iam Tongi!
You should do reactions to MAOLI'S other songs too. Jealous, lemon with my tito, country reggae and others. Also there many other Polynesian artist you would love
As for the significance of the laying the lei down, this is HIS offering to the aina. Woth all due respect, done by natives. We don’t need a bunch of tourists leaving lei everywhere. Lol
So this song is an old song island favorite. My parents used to play this or dad sings it to my mom and I go ewww but now I’m older it makes sense. It’s a song usually your loved one mainly my man sings to me to serenade me an island tings😂.You can sing to your girl but not out to creep someone 😂❤. Love vibes.
Eyooo he sang” If I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me” and u went 😮. I knew that devil line gonna hit u hard 😂😂😂🤌🏽🤌🏽 BTW Uncle this country song. 👌🏽
Love Maoli and you being totally into our island musicians. Check out Sammielz, Samoan who was born and raised in Australia. His song "Let Us Be" is one of his best. 🤙🏼

This song was played at all the island parties back in the 80s in nz 🤣😂 a huge fav originally by bellamy bros. Its an island anthem
Mahalo for reacting to one of our many Amazing Local Artist from the 808! Much appreciation to you.
This is a cover song by Maoli. The original is by the Bellamy Brothers. He's paying respect to the land by putting the Lei on the ground. Maoli means indigenous/natives of Hawaii. Hope this helps
Island Reggae remakes are ALWAYS better than the original.
@@noe_lani_808 I know right! I appreciate the originals more just because the island cover was so darn good!! I prefer the island covers more
