Any language must be spoken by all young people, or this one gonna die in a generation, unfortunately speaking. For example, Walloon language has a population over 600,000, but almost all young Wallonians can't ever speak and hear this local language well at all, as their grandparents have been all forced to speak Parisian (French) only at any official places.
Brings a tear to my eye as well. And we're so lucky our lyrics are so awesome, " Guard Pacifics triple star from the shafts of strife and war." They're our people, we're okay, God will defend us.
E Ihowā Atua, O ngā iwi mātou rā Āta whakarangona; Me aroha noa Kia hua ko te pai; Kia tau tō atawhai; Manaakitia mai Aotearoa Men of every creed and race, Gather here before Thy face, Asking Thee to bless this place, God defend our free land. From dissension, envy, hate, And corruption guard our state, Make our country good and great, God defend New Zealand. Waiho tona takiwā Ko te ao mārama; Kia whiti tōna rā Taiāwhio noa. Ko te hae me te ngangau Meinga kia kore kau; Waiho i te rongo mau Aotearoa May our mountains ever be Freedom's ramparts on the sea, Make us faithful unto Thee, God defend our free land. Guide her in the nations' van, Preaching love and truth to man, Working out Thy glorious plan, God defend New Zealand. God of Nations at Thy feet, In the bonds of love we meet, Hear our voices, we entreat, God defend our free land. Guard Pacific's triple star From the shafts of strife and war, Make her praises heard afar, God defend New Zealand.
My favorite version of the NZ national anthem. Annie Crummer's vocals are amazing. The arrangement and production values (including the videography) are top notch. Props to all involved -- this was awesome. If I was viewing late night TV, I'd always watch this finale before going to bed, and I still love it, great to find it again on TH-cam !!
Such an epic version of our beautiful anthem, New Zealand was already an incredibly progressive country by this point but this really helped heal the country after the Sprinboks tour of the early 1980's.
The audio quality is great, it's just a pity the same can't be said about the video quality. The original TVNZ video had superb quality that I wanted to share with my relations in UK, but by the time I could afford the equipment, the opportunity was gone.
I'm hoping that the TVNZ archives have this that they might let out to share. The original video quality matched with audio would be epic to see again.
This song is worthy of being played in the courtroom. This song represents Godzone. Our Chiefs belong to the first country that married the whole world. That's why it's called GODZONE. New Zealand is the first multicultural country in the world, the whole galaxies and the whole universe.
Somebody should actually film some actual New Zealand footage in excellent 1080p HD, just in case I feel like editing a modern day version of this brilliant startup/closedown sequence - or maybe I'll take some HD stock footage.
Stephen Emmett Great idea! With drones these days we are spoilt for choice getting some similar shots as used in the original! Wish someone would do a new video version to this classic soundtrack!
@@europe86 Correct. Maybe in 4K Ultra HD for the master and they might just broadcast it at the start-up sequence proper of TVNZ One's 50th anniversary day (June 1, 2025)... or maybe even their 45th next year!
@@stephenemmett9753 What would also be pretty awesome would be if someone tried to get a shot by shot replica of the original footage as close as one can. I would help fund such an exercise if someone had the resources to do that!
@@europe86 Let's do that, shall we? Maybe we could start a short project to get it completed by June 1st, 2020, with help from those who have such equipment, e.g. drones!
@@europe86 Like I've said... imagine this, just before six minutes to the start of TVNZ One's broadcast on June 1st, 2020 or 2025... then the fade out. Black screen. An announcer: "This is TVNZ One, welcoming you to our 45th (or 50th) anniversary celebrations. First this." Cue the newly produced (by us) version of this clip. And then our startup sequence.
This is what I was bought up on. Life was so easy back then.
Absolutely 💯. No dramas besides Shortland Street 😂
POV: Its 1990 on a saturday morning. You are up fresh and early, waiting for the cartoons to begin, and you a looking forward to a day of no school.
One of the most fire national anthems in the world!!! ❤🇳🇿
This is the quintessential version of the NZ national anthem. Christ, I was proud as hell when this played as a kid! Still gives me shivers!
We had to do this at school and both English as well as Te Reo Maori. It was a part of the school curriculum even back then.

The best version of this beautiful anthem.

E Ihowā Atua,
O ngā iwi mātou rā
Āta whakarangona;
Me aroha noa
Kia hua ko te pai;
Kia tau tō atawhai;
Manaakitia mai
Aotearoa
Men of every creed and race,
Gather here before Thy face,
Asking Thee to bless this place,
God defend our free land.
From dissension, envy, hate,
And corruption guard our state,
Make our country good and great,
God defend New Zealand.
Waiho tona takiwā
Ko te ao mārama;
Kia whiti tōna rā
Taiāwhio noa.
Ko te hae me te ngangau
Meinga kia kore kau;
Waiho i te rongo mau
Aotearoa
May our mountains ever be
Freedom's ramparts on the sea,
Make us faithful unto Thee,
God defend our free land.
Guide her in the nations' van,
Preaching love and truth to man,
Working out Thy glorious plan,
God defend New Zealand.
God of Nations at Thy feet,
In the bonds of love we meet,
Hear our voices, we entreat,
God defend our free land.
Guard Pacific's triple star
From the shafts of strife and war,
Make her praises heard afar,
God defend New Zealand.

No better way to start the day!
Not a new zealander, but i got the chills when i see this video
Me too

I always get. Tiered eyes listen to. This special national anthem it is the best in the world love New Zealand to bits
Brings a tear to your eye...
I worked on Glenbrook steel mill design and the Marston point refinery. Halcyon days of the early 80's.
2:53 As I kid I always heard this as "Make us faithful on to the heat" which left me scratching my head 😂😂

2:21 The late Allan Duncan in HKI. Both legends. Siberia
Oh wow that is Siberia Hut! How have I never noticed! Thanks for pointing that out!
I love Annie Crummer
That last part was spot on patriotic lol
This is the reason why i am a proud kiwi born in auckland
This version reminds me of such a great timing growing up in the 80s and 90s NZ. Now in 2022 it seems we are very divided as a country. Very sad.
1:47 For sure my favourite part, idk why, but it reminds me when they drew 0-0 to USA in under 17 world cup 2011.
Not a dry eye watching this.
I forgotten how long this song was think I was like 8 or somethin when I last heard it .
This video makes one proud to be a Kiwi.....or if you aren't wish you were a Kiwi!
This is awesome
l love it
All together now... * Gasp * Gaaah ... Defend New Zeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaalaaaannd
Accurately replicates the view from misty-eyed kiwis living abroad.
I miss home, I’m somewhere in Turkey, been travelling for 7 years, I need to go home 😢

Anybody in 2023? Aotearoa! ❤
Pop versions of national anthems are great, it gives a modern yet civic nationalist/patriot feel to it
Yes my next FB post.
1:47 Is that Bunny Walters?
The Maori bit sounds like a JAPANESE WARRIOR with the cold 😂
My favourite national anthem after India and Isreal
Israel 💩
TVNZ please bring this back!
New Zealand anime ending credits
Does anyone know the exact day or month this first aired?
I remember before I started school in 1983 it playing in the mornings
Thanks my beloved children u loved I guess I'm a wee bit important
Who are the two singers?
Annie Crummier & Peter Morgan are the two main vocalists with Dalvanius Prime doing the Te Reo sections.
Can anyone remember what year this Ad came out
Not an ad, play at start and end of TV
4:01 - #SaveThePlanet #PlantMoreTrees

When your country has good management of the COVID-19 pandemic:
So freaking true
Delusional...... many different standings. Same outcome. Post cv deaths means they achieved nothing, infact condemned people to death.
Sweden.
Unless you wanted to get back in. Fk Ardern
XDDD
LANGUAGE: MĀORI
I think that the audio is slowed down a bit. It doesn't work.
It's actually not, its straight off the released CD recording of the track.
Nice school photo kids never realy liked that here do
