So awesome and reminds me of home. Im from Brisbane via Wainuiomata via Tokomaru Bay. We say Chowwlega however its all the same. Kia Ora Rob. The man. East Coast, Ngati Porou...
All the way from LA! This is an amazing song! Instantly makes me happy. Your culture is crossing over different cultures. I’m a mexican/Italian man. I don’t need to understand the words, I feel the music!

words can never describe how thankfull we are to rob and whanau for recognising our little mans talent and giving us opportunity to let the world see.it was a honour for our boy to have a part in the kalega video.the kalega video is a awesome creation by rob and the witch doctor.personally i think it should be at number one its got good sound you ask me .i like the way rob recognises good talent and supports who he can reminds me of the great founder of motown berry gordy who saw potential in the jackson five.which started michael jacksons career.thats the road were taking you see i believe my boy carrys a mantle handed to him by the creator and with the right kinda support its possible.thank you rob and cilla and whanau for our time with you may the lord bless you further and i pray others get the chance to be discovered by you.cheers all and KALEGA!!!
'KALEGA' - (Cah-leg-ah) Taken from the Māori phrase "ka reka" meaning sweet or tasty, 'Kalega' is commonly used by East Coast locals to express joy, amazement and stunned reactions. It has taken many transformations including: kaleg', kalega-lega, lega-leg', Chow-lega, Chur-lega, Sao-lega, Sao and many more. It is used to replace the phrases "too much" the more widely used "Tu meke" or the current terms O.M.G and Woooooo hoooooo!!!
We use to say chow lega when we lived at Hawaii back in the eighties and 90s (Pohutakawa middle of straight) awsome song Rob makes me proud to be from Te Whanau a Apanui and Maori
❤LOVE, LOVE THIS SONG ONE DAY I WOULD LOVE TO VISIT I HAVE MAORI ALSO AND DIDN'T NO MY DAD SAID I HAVE, BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW BUT I PRAY ONE DAY ME AND MY FAMILIES CAN VISIT THERE GOD BLESS ROB LOVE WHAT YOU DO ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just had my real first East Coast experience, and I can tell you now, that it is magical. The people, the sites, food and Manaakitanga is beyond anything I have ever experienced. It's honestly gorgeous. It's touched my heart in a whole other way, as I was there to teach three young men from Ruatorria about my craft as an actor, and a human. It changed my life. I am still close with one of the young men. He has a serious case of ADHD, but has suprised me in so many amazing ways. I was gifted a 35 keyring which I rock with massive pride around Tamaki. I hope to live out my final days in the beutiful oasis of New Zealand country side. It's honestly, breath-taking x
Tino pai to waiata Rob harikoa taku ngakau kua whakatuwhera to wairua ki nga tamariki pai hoki te kanikani o tena tama no reira kaore aku mihi e mutu Rob tena koe best song

Aue taukiri e!, Nooku iti teenei pikau aroha. If my tuhoe nephews had actually shared the kiiwaha of Kalega, I might have understood their love for the song from the beginning. Aroha mai, Waikato who didn't delve deeper enough 🤦♀️

Awesome bro. Grew up with that phrase. Usually said as Chow Lega in our whanau. Mean jam
Nicee let’s encourage fake te reo lol nga kupu Maori kohore e rangona. The best thing to do during this decline in te reo
Tēnā koe mō ōhau whakaaro.
rangihoro walker lol for real.... so sad that's all u get from thus song... chur whanaunga Rob Meke summer jam...
Sorry but is that shawn lenzy
We use to say chow lega when we lived at Hawaii back in the eighties and 90s (Pohutakawa middle of straight) awsome song Rob makes me proud to be from Te Whanau a Apanui and Maori
Ae that's how we used to say it back in the day... I thought this was a new Kupu or something, engari..
I was born in Tolaga Bay and this just takes me right back! Beautiful! ❤
My family and I love this song from Sydney Australia 😊
