Kia ora Charlie. STAN here. Humbled by your support. Music knows no boundaries and to feel your belief for the music and artists of Aotearoa from afar is very warming! Huge Mihi!! THANK YOU!!!
You are so welcome Stan. Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment. I'm also humbled. I will be reacting to much more of your wonderful music. Thank you for your gift
Legend stan, we are all so proud of you, the man you have become through all your struggles. Your a king brother...and shout out to Charlie for increasing the outreach. Power to the music
It's all humility through love brother charlie
Kanye is a living genius of our time and Stan is paying real homage from our home of Aotearoa much aroha and respect bro you hold the voice of our nation!
youtube is trash they should put this song on recommend, honestly this cover would make millions
Awesome pronunciation of maori words brother💯
Thanks brother. I've been singing along to a few songs in Maori recently so that's probably been helping haha. Thanks for watching man. I appreciate you
I was pleasantly surprised by that as well.
I'm sure everyday Stan wakes up he says a prayer. The lad has a rare cancer gene that has taken MANY of his family members. If I remember correctly, he and his mum both had their stomachs removed a couple yrs back. He had to learn how to bring his power back into his voice again after he recovered from his op. There is a documentary on his cancer journey on TH-cam. He has a beautiful voice and I'm glad he could overcome his obstacles to continue to share his beautiful voice and down to earth nature with the world.
That's a great documentary.
Yes sadly his whanau is from Tamapahore where my nan and Koro stays
Truly a gifted artist our ol Stan boy. The finesse in his voice structure is EPIC !!!
This all comes from our cultural background where music is everything. We originally did not have a written language. We kept our history through music story telling and art. We call our cultural performances Kapa Haka
Not only does Stan have a beyond words beautiful voice, he uses his voice to bring depth and wisdom to his songs, songs of meaning and that is rather rare. Thank you Charlie for honouring our Stan as you have.
Not just phenomenal Kiwi voices but Polynesian voices and harmonies are, I think, genetically magnificent. Stan is an outstanding example‼️
Stans maori
Those harmonies are boring, i prefer listening to these African Americans church choirs they are pure powerful, and beautiful.
@@denisetewhata2513 fksake🤬 get lost and who saids i was bored i said the music is boring, got nothing to do with a level. None of your business why im on here thank you.
Guys! Chill out. Its honestly the most pathetic thing when people start measuring one artist or type of music against another as if you're supporting 2 different football teams. THAT is boring.
Honestly though, if you find itboring then move on. There is literally no reason to go around stating everything you don't like. You'd be here forever. It's very telling of who people are when they do that. It's dull
@@denisetewhata2513 Sure but if you refer to any Māori as a poly in person they’re going to correct you 😂 Māori came from Polynesia a very long time ago. We’re Māori !
IMO the heavy "Gospel" influence can be found rooted in the Polynesian style of singing, which is all about projecting your voice and singing in harmony.
Love it when Stan gets reactions, if you thought this was gospel then he'll diff take you to heaven and back with Amazing Grace and He Kakano Ahu. The notes he hits in both of these songs is ridiculous. He truly is blessed by God.
Kia ora Charlie, huge mihi (thanks) to you for this reaction. A massive part of our culture is delivered through song and without trying to sound bias, I’m quite confident that at least 70% of our people (which btw isnt really that much compared to other countries lol) can hold a note and/or play an instrument. We are proud of Stan and what he has accomplished along with the rest of the artists you mentioned. Man you have an awesome taste in music! lol
I am of the 30%, those of us that sit on the sidelines :D
@@Reihana_ on the sidelines with all the crates
A few decades ago every party had Maori playing guitars, singing songs and they had huge beautiful voices. Maori had sort of adopted the reggae culture, especially after Bob Marley came to NZ, it was great. Then the 90's came and young Maori dropped the Rasta for gangster, east side vs west side, crips vs bloods, 2pac vs Biggie type culture. Was sad too see. House partys turned to shit thats for sure.
Put that 70 up to 90 bro haha
we cann all hold notes , just gotta find the ones that the Aunties are using 😂
Hi Charlie, 3:21am here in New Jersey. I just happened to be awake when I got your notification. But I never heard this before and I love it. His vocals are amazing. ❤❤❤
Stan is the man he is blessed with his voice, and delivers a purpose through his singing. The Levities are amazing, perfection vocalists. 👌👌
As Maori our souls connect to God, nature, the earth, seasons, animals, sea life. Everything we do has some spiritual connection or significance to us. Music's part of our lives and we express how we're feeling through it.
As an english maori i love heavy metal! That is more spiritual to me!👍 Highway to hell! Hells Bells! And more i love it all and Death Metal.
@@gracepreston9995 I'm a maori Irish Scottish french English heritage I'm heavily influenced by rnb and rap heavy metal I guess it's like a form of haka
@@lifes_abeach6040 um what is a form of haka? I forgot to mention i also love classical music as well
I'm a proud Samoan born and raised in Aotearoa and the sis here explained that one perfectly. I love my Maori family ❤️
I don't know any Maori that can't sing 😂😂😂 and I know quite few thousand give or take 🤣 so many married into the family too ❤️ Mates growing up ☺️ Blood or not I love them. Beautiful people ❤️
This took me all the way to church!!! I'm so grateful I watched this today - I loved this version. The 'no music' with the bvs going off was my favourite part! Thank you for introducing me to some new music through your reactions 💛💛
Ahh I'm so glad you liked it. BVs were awesome in this one huh! ♥️♥️
hello thanks for your comments. i’ll be performing live february
@@stanwalker5397 bro wake up. You ain't Stan Walker fuck out of here
@@jahpaipa lol sure
Wow thank you for your quality comment about brother Stan, yes his singing in s soothing and takes you to the alter of our lord. Blessing be upon you and your whanau (family)
Stan is currently the best Artist/Vocalist in New Zealand and it ain’t even close! 💯
💯💯💯Bro agreee
Second is that other dude forgot his name..
NZ has the largest Polynesian population in the world and most of them have lives that are intertwined with their faith. They sing in choirs and church bands and have the tightest community feels- it shows in the music theyre capable of producing.
Img I’m glad you loved Stan Walker he is The Man .. us kiwis are brought up singing it’s part of our culture we love to sing we love to dance we love to share our culture with the world ❤
Kia Ora from New Zealand. Stan Walker is amazing and is my fav male kiwi singer 🙂🙂
Thanks for the reaction. Stan is a national treasure. Looking forward to more reactions of him
React to teeks first times he’s another kiwi singer he’s voice is really unique
Both Māori as well
Yesssss all of his songs are good too lol
Its a polynesian thing. Aotearoa (New Zealand) is pretty much the capital for all the polynesian countries like Fiji, Tonga, Niue, Cook Islands, Rarotonga, Samoa etc. Christianity was bought to the Pacific during colonisation and is stuck ever since. The style of singing however is all Polynesian. We just sing a lot about Christianity and spirituality.
errr Rarotonga is a part of the Cook Islands lol oh and Fiji is Melanesian not Polynesian
Stan Walker is a Maori from Aotearoa New Zealand ...He is the best of our contemporary Maori Singers ..... Most Maori and other Polynesians are awesome singers and we are natural at harmonies, B.V.'s and Choir Choral singing ... After we were visited and welcomed Bob Marley back in 1979 ... Bob Left a huge imprint on our music and messages - kaupapa (issues) music and the legacy he left with us on our music spawned borning of original awesome reggae music with kaupapa messages genre , into Aotearoa - NZ, to the point when other original Reggae Leaders/bands visiting Aotearoa - NZ these days are all impressed by the songs of our reggae bands compositions, performance of those songs musically and especially our harmonic vocals we get these gifts through our culture and our ancestors with several polynesian and western - English languages. Hip Hop Rap is a current addition by our artists especially in all our languages ... !! Mean az!! Our Reo Māoori is currently booming throughout NZ as our culture was based upon Haka and Chanting .. an oral tradition. !! The B.V.'s that are impressive to us backing Stans Lead Vocal enhances the total harmonic, the Wairua - SOUL , the power and beauty of his cover version of Kanye West's Song UltralLight Beam!
Hi I'm having a spiritual experience tonight in my lounge in Timaru listening to Stan giving God the glory
For someone who has undergone cancerous stomach surgery, he is still so powerful in his singing abilities and beauty. I absolutely adore Stan as a Polynesian myself and love your views on him and our look upon kiwis! Thank you! 😊
Love from NZ! Stans incredible 💚 “don’t dream it’s over” you may like
Our country was truly blessed by the hands of God and we love to share our blessings with the whole world. Be kind and love all and stay happy with NZ music.😁
Did Stan add the Black Lives part??? Don't remember that in the original. Powerful.
He can really sing!😳
thanks how are you doing?
Note: remember this was recorded LIVE!! Stan is THE MAN!!!!! 🙌🏾 unrivalled
Ive listened to this more times then I can count 😂 so much that my husband is like aw no here she goes hahahahahah
Thank you for your genuine reaction to our beautiful Stan💖 I'm excited to see more Stan reactions, Sydney, Australia 👋x
Love how you're showcasing our people and their talent, and Stan is the man!
It’s the wairua (why-roo-ah spirit) 😉 Maori and Polynesians in general are very spiritual people. And there’s not much that’s more spiritual than music or singing 🤙🏽
All humanity is spiritual, its just the source that varies for us all.
I find those very boring and is enough to put me to sleep, that is the spiritual part for me is a nap, so long dragging and bloody boring, is why i do not go to funerals and meetings.
Maori are Polynesian
pretty sure Maori are polynesian....
@@brandstefff they didn't say Māori weren't Polynesians. She said Māori, and Polynesians in general, meaning ALL Polynesian's (Māori, Tongans, Samoans etc etc etc).
Kia ora Charlie, waiata (song and singing) is a big part of our Maori culture.really appreciate you taking an interest bro
How can I not bro. The music and singing is premium. Peace!
I get chills EVERYTIME I listen to this! This is one for the books! Absolutely amazing! Not to mention he’s VERY EASY ON THE EYES! :)
Love you pronouncing our language. Awesome.
Yep, you're so right! For a foreign lad his pronunciation is on point. Great that he's made the effort too, but then he does seem pretty worldly. 👍
I was rewatching this reaction and wondered if you could do reactions to Aaradhna (I adore her Treble and Reverb Album), Ché-Fu (Misty Frequencies, Waka and basically everything), Teeks (If You Were Mine, Remember Me, Waves, If Only, Never Be Apart), Rob Ruha and Sons of Zion. They all have beautiful voices. Looking forward to any NZ reaction anyways lol.
First time I've seen your channel. A very impressive appreciation of music. Keep up the great work
Thank you so much Tony. I'm honoured to have you in board and I appreciate your kind words and support
Love our waiata, and aotearoa is blessed with amazing artists.
First time watching your reactions and you blew me away perfect pronunciation of Māori thank you Stan is the man he's unbelievable live the Levites are also exceptional singers you will be overflowing with kiwis new sub here love and light to you and yours💗
Hey Charlie really appreciate and love your pronunciation in te reo Māori! Much respect
Subscriber forever right here
Oh and also love that you mentioned teaks to
Peace and love to you and your family always
Kia Ora Charlie might I suggest listening to Stan walkers version of Amazing grace and also thanks for reacting to Stan walker he has a an amazing voice soothing for the ears 👂
Talofa, Kia Ora, Greetings from NZ Charlie, New Zealanders are very musically talented. God has definitely blessed this nation with so many great musicians and singers.
Stan is the Man💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 beautifullllllllll....
Matiu from Six60 has a brother that also sings, Niko Walters. His song Not my Neighbour is a bop but Moving On is pretty nice too
Yes niko is amazing
Hi Charlie, it’s Mana. Power and Pride from above, from within, from ancestors and from our culture. Deeper than soul I reckon. If that’s even possible.
Stan is an outstanding singer one of my favorites, hi from New Zealand
Yes it's a mixture...Nzers sings/rap at parties, train, bus, church, car, schools, etc...once old skool music starts playing people just sing...in te reo Maori, poly or English...we even sing flat🤣
We grow up singing in culture groups training and then compete over days against title holders in our own language,that’s our gospel but the skill levels come from the Maori language so someone like Stan has developed powerful pronunciation due to duel linguistic capabilities.
So in short the Maori language is actually a discipline to our children.
Hey Charlie, love your channel and the delivery of your reaction. It' s not everyday Stan responds to a reaction channel which only speaks to the man and his respect for you. We love Stan in Aotearoa NZ, he's an inspiration to all Kiwi's especially to young Maori.
Awesome Charlie, It's always a little surprising yet exciting to see our kiwi artists receiving some air time beyond our tiny little country. We're very proud of the quality of music we've developed through decades of influence from US & UK music and Uncle Bob (Marley) when he toured NZ in 1979. Our sound is a fusion of RnB, Soul, Funk, Jazz, Blues and Gospel wrapped in Island/Reggae vibes backed up with great vocals and that throwback sound we all miss and love from today's music. Kiwi's just prefer real music sung by real vocalist and played by real musicians. Thank you for sharing our music and artists with your followers and the rest of the world. Some suggestions -
Stan's - New Light, He Kakano Ahau, Don't Dream It's Over, Amazing Grace, Inside Out, Circle Of Life, Bigger (&/or TUA Maori version), Aotearoa, Thankyou, Take It Easy, Choose, Don't Worry Baby
Teeks - First Time, If You Were Mine, Remember Me, Waves, Never Be Apart, If Only
Six60 - Lost ft Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra (on Vimeo), Forever, Closer, Only To Be, Rest Of You
L.A.B - Why Oh Why, No Roots, My Brother, Baby Will You Let Me, Fashion Dread, Natural, IJDK, Rocketship, Aint No Use Live at One Love 2021)
Greetings Charlie from Canada - I am a Canadian Kiwi and I ABSOLUTELY love, love, love Stan Walker - he is an extremely special human being - God has kissed his vocal chords! :-) The soulful sounds coming out of NZ are predominantly the Maori singers. They have such rich voices - somewhat like the Hawaiians dare I say it. As well, the Tongan and Samoan singers have beautiful voices as well. I don't think it is about the singers all having been trained in church so much as it is the fact that these races are deep rooted in spirituality and reverence for the sacred and the beautiful in life. Teeks is a great example of this as is Holly Smith. Parson James, one of Stan's collaborators also a fabulous voice ... same as Tiki Tane, another Maori singer. I am so glad you have experienced the thrill of listening to
Stan and his band of merry minstrels. The same can be said of the female vocalists. They have the deep soul voices you could easily mistake for black women singers. Listen to
While The Cat's Away - all girl band. Ardijah another great band. :-)
Stan was winner of Australian idol a few years back.
Our Culture Brother!! Its embedded deep in our Soul and Faith. Music makes our Country go Round
I love Stan walker he's a great guy and his singing is beautiful.
You aren't kidding about, "Wow, What a voice"! I have been obsessed with his music, for around 3 years or so now. All the New Zealand artists I have encountered, really, people around me would wonder @my sanity, that's how intensely I have been following the music of Ladi6, Fat Freddy's Drop, Maisey Rika, Ruia Aperahama, Scribe, etc., etc... There is such a shed load of talent there, that is exciting, how I wish it were more accessible. But Stan, as they say, is the MAN! I am so grateful for his voice and that he was able to learn how to sing again after his operation. Dodged a bullet there. I could literally go on and on, but you get the idea. Thanks for giving his music a review. Cheers!
I have never seen your page before, but I love this review!❤
Beautiful - Poetic & above all thousands of People will appreciate The Voice That God Kissed the throat of - Stan Walker Thank you Stan for giving us the opportunity to sit, listen & appreciate your Talent & share with all the others who have the GIFT. Kia Kaha Rangatahi Ma
Have you seen Stan Walker’s new video “I Am”? It moves me to tears every time. Makes me proud to be in New Zealand (and he sings in Māori in it!)
You will love it! ❤❤
Thank you for your reviews - I love them all.
So excited to be following you. Love this song can not get enough. Love your explanations! Anna from NZ
Stans backup band and singers are 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯😍😍😍😍
Thank you for acknowledged that our lives need to matter. This is what unity is! Just a bit of information. This song is a kanye west cover. And this artist also overcame stomach cancer. He was afraid he would not sing the same, but he came back with the vengeance. God is good.
I love watching reaction videos and I gotta say... You are the best I have come across so far !!
#Subscribed 😊

Tumeke review. Stan, love your voice. The commitment belief in your singing is so encompassing the wairua grabbed me. Thank you for sharing your talent. 🙏❤🎶
Stan walker is so underrated he's amazing 💯
Stan delivered that song beautifully n I really like his version. What a voice first heard him sang Purple Rain, he changed the tune n it was the best cover that I've heard so far. His voice I'm speechless whatelse to say? The man is so talented. Love it he slayed both Lyrics. Kia Ora to the Kiwi Land very proud of him.
Stan never disappoints. Always always feel what he sings
Knowing Stan was here, I'm subscribing right now. Kia Ora

I loved your reaction! Check out Stan Walker's "New Light".
Hi Charlie have you heard Stan's version of 'This is a man's world', which he sang in Idol 2009 Australia. It is an exceptional version - but there are many other awesome songs he sang. cheers Charlie travel well.
Your critique is s beautifully worded. Subbed.
We just love to sing and dance
thanks how are you doing? i’m so happy chatting with my fans
@@stanwalker5397 muppet fake ass wannabe you ain't Stan Walker helmet
“All lives will not matter, until Black Lives Matter” FACTS! “God is Love and Love is God” “Hate what is bad, love what is GOOD”!
Love Stan Walker my fav Nz artist here in Nz🥰🥰
Curriculum bk in days was to be in choir havn vocal training. I loved it
Wow I'm impressed of how you pronounced Maori, you even rolled your tongue, some kiwis who were born in NZ still can't say it properly 👏
its actually L. A. B. (rather than "lab") hehe
love the support for our kiwi artists and music 🥰🥰🥰
I love your analysis clearly coming from a technical knowledge background you got yourself a new subby. .. "all lives wont matter until black lives matter... FACT!!" love it xxx. love from Aotearoa XXX (nz)
I've noticed Pacific Islanders Maori, Saamoan, Tongan are naturally gifted musically and vocally.
You should react to stan walkers how great thou art
Def one of my faves!!!!
If you get the chance read his book Impossible then you will understand where his passion comes from. This is a man that is the literal “rises from the ashes” who had come full circle, reuniting with the love of his life and finally and recently married her. Heya awesome review aswell love it.
OMG you should react to tone 6 their from New Zealand too, a young singing group, still in school but have accomplished so much. You will love them. Plss react to them. Xox
Check out Salmonella Dub too. And Tiki Taane. We have SO MANY great artists here in New Zealand 🇳🇿 😍
Mana .... NZ'rs in general have a strong understanding of the energetic life force within and around all things and strive to emanate that, especially in the Arts.
Stan is world class, check out don’t dream it’s over cover
You’re missing out of some of Stans best like; Amazing Grace featuring the Levites and also Don’t Dream it’s over featuring the Levites
Please please please if you haven't already do a first reaction of STAN Walkers incredible vocal of - He Kakano Ahau
Other really good NZ singers are Teeks and Aaradhna. Both of them have beautiful and unique voices.
