The Vietnam Veteran blowing that whistle is my Brother. He blows this whistle as a sign of respect for the singers, dancers. ELDERS and the circle they are in. He's showing HONOR and RESPECT. My Brother is very Traditional in our ways and customs.. I'm proud of him. TEHICILA TIBDO TOMMY.. (I LOVE YOU OLDER BROTHER TOMMY). Mitakuye Oyasin..
Growing up in the circle, men like your brother showed me how dignity, honor and tradition. With no older guidance in my family the Creator would bring these people in my life. I honor your brother and all that served. 🌍✌🏽
@Susan Sandfly Ok. Thank you very much. One more question I would have is would this be an appropriate intertribal song to sing at a powwow? I really love this song. It's my absolute favorite song in the world, in fact. And I've been meaning to teach my drum group a new song in a different language.
The drum.rattles are ur ears and heart as one!!! The people's gathered are blessing all....they are talking to earned.given spirts..these families share them with u today...u have a very good for ur self
HOKAHEY! This such a beautiful song and one of my all time faves!. Drum groups across the continent are singing this song. Great honor, great words, great message. Wapila
And when he blows the whistle hes honoring the drum, creator and ancestors ..and this song being the "White Buffalo Calf" song is honoring white buffalo calf woman
Although this isn't something I would post, seeing my friends and relatives dancing so hard to this great song has made my heart sing. It's wonderful to see my bro Tommy dancing again, and this video has brought back many good memories of a great time at SIFC pow-wow.
I have stayed out of this debate for many years but have decided to let all who comment on this video know. Proper procedure and protocol were followed during the whole process of the videotaping of this song. The song was sung to honor the newly born daughter of my friend who is standing at the gateway of the drum the whistle dancer. It’s all about enlightenment and being the best possible people we can, it’s not about who is right or wrong. We can all guess were the right and the wrong point of view will get us, conflict and war. We have seen it through human history and especially in the lives of our own people. What is there to hide? The Creator sees all that there is and I’m sure he does not want to hide anything. Spirituality can be for all want to participate and Creator wants us to share the beauty with all who we encounter. It is better to extend and hand of friendship and love as opposed to one who points a finger of ridicule. The reason that many of these ways are still here is that our people had to go underground and practice their ceremonies in private away from the eyes of a conquering nation. It is a belief system that still has a hold of many of our people. I say spirituality is for all.
Beautiful Truth spoken! Very Spiritual event which made many of our hearts soar also. Very sacred. TY for sharing at this time of Sun Dog... or the prophetic time for this. Look within... see... Creator does see all and knows our Heart and intentions so let's live there. Much respect and gratitude to all.
Turtleislandmusic With all due respect, that is an beautiful thing that you explained this...yes, it is for us, our people, our sacred ways, our medicine. I know it's a difficult thing to understand for us sometimes, but people will see and hear us in the age of video. And, if people are to see our ways (and they WILL, we in modern times), I couldn't think of a more respectful drum to sing this medicine song...they repped 💯 in a most humble and stoic way
We are all ONE Spirit as we walk here. Creator loves us all. It is a blessing to have this precious Tribal Song shared with us. I believe it is with the gift of LOVE that it is offered. Thus, it can never be wrong. Traditions are vital but the Traditions of Spirit are most important. Creator's people need to be fed so that the Rivers within can sing the songs Creator meant for us to sing. We all should sing to each other from our many books of Life's knowledge. MTVO for posting! AHO!
Back when granpa and grandma robert and june prairiechief raised me in a good way and we would visit pow wows i fancy danced til i was 14 they both passed on and i miss that life so muchand them smiling and cheering me on i feel so proud of my native heritage im 42 now and i haven't stepped into the pow wow circle since i would give the world to make that happen again i listen to pow wow songs 24-7 spike draper is my idol my deepest condolences to the draper family' we lost a big brother and mentor i could learn a thing or two from his good dancing my prayer woulld be to find a sponser to help me arttain that goal and live my culture again before i pass from this world ive had so much loss in my life i wanna make that posive comback and be a role model to other s keep our traditional ways alive. Stoney park sing a good mean song i love there music as well as all drum circle s ther s no wrong way when it comes to singing our traditional music thank you for inspiring many aho
The whistle is the spirit of the dancer, and when the dancer's spirit is lifted the whistle comes out. And only whistle carriers are chosen usually Veterans of Battle
I hear this song and I think and reminisce of my beloved Gramma, a very powerful woman who taught me a lot about life, traditions, and must of all love... love for everyone and everything around us... this song is life, brought to us through the singers and drum from Creator... Aho
Aniin, I understand that the pipe is sacred and the drums an song and dancing. But it is the only chance for me, to FEEL, what happens. There are not so much Powwows in Germany and I´m glad to visit one, a few weeks ago - far away from my home. There I FEEL the spirit, the energy and the power inside. Mitakuye, for this video, Wakan Tanka is with you all
Pow Wows are open to anyone of any background. It is good to see other people from a different ethnicity want to learn about the native American culture it helps us get noticed by other people who may think we are extinct. Pow Wows are about coming together to celebrate, heal, and have a good time and dance, sing, and enjoy ourselves.
there are many teachings as to why honour songs, and many other songs cannot be recorded. This song was sung to honour that whistle being blown and it is a pretty big faux pas to record this, you see the singers even remove their hats to sing this song song is sung amazing great job. I believe this song was sung at GoN many years ago
I appreciate everything that you guys are doing for us ❤️, the sixth grandfather said listen my children, we're all together now, no more crying, we are the first peoples on this earth ❤️...
Eagle Whistle Song it's a healing song, just like what we did in our sweatlodge we healed alot of people that day, me n u, Caring Wolf & Thunder Cloud, Londa Bray & Allan Myo, Loved u more that day when u sat by me n helped me heal our brother's & sister's
They are upset with the camera man because when there is a whistle blower and the traditional dancers are around the drum this is a sacred dance, and recording it is disrupting whats going on "Spiritually" ..
That song was awesome!!!! Truth is the song composer n original drumgroup was da ones making it happen then and there!!! That song gave inspiration to me remember our ways for the buffalo,our grandmother's, and mother's ...with out them there wouldn't be life for what it is today!! Wopila tanka chicayelpelo!!! Kiukanpi Memorial 🥁 drum
I dont know if its traditional like that in these ways, but i always whistle this song by these guys at least one more full time every time i hear it. And I'm fitna do it for the second time this time. So my serious question is this, is there any old teaching about not singing the same song again in a day after you'd stopped singing that song the first time and then sang another one? You know, put a different song in between the singing of the same song twice or more pushups. This seemed like such an easy question in my mind, but not so easy to ask.
To be a pipe carrier it means the story of a well know female name badessa wi white buffalo woman tought us about the way of man n woman coming from the sun n moon creation of night n day n how it helps to create life like a child😢😊😅
Relatives, the drum is the sacred heartbeat. Look for your heart and play the song that lies there, from heaven, from within, on the blue road again. My tears cry, because you have lost the trail, trail of tears now full of joy, rejoice. It's time for the returning. The whistle is the horn and call out to all Relatives. This signifies the age of brotherhood, the dawning and third yellow rolling hill in time. your devoted servant, White Buffalo Calf Woman, elder crystal child of the Rainbow Clan
Oops I forgot to tell you who i was talking about .Dean lacroix .his other name is chief white buffalo man many feathers . he is old school in what he wears
Hello everyone . my name is chief white buffalo man many feathers ..if you have a time really watch me dance n ask your self .what do I see or feel inside of you . if this happens to you your are being filled with ullu .unconditional love love.love unconditional love freely given .n just maybe new things will happen to you or a healing
I know this was a while back, but at a powwow they told people they were not aloud to record the song when whistlers were dancing , but I'm not ranting just sharing something I heard ..
There is a true story. Why. We beat the drum.. A woman came down. From the sky of heavens...brought a stick and drum..offered to us men...so. For the reason. That we men can not beat our women and children..so when ever we get frustrated. We. Take it on da drum . so as u can see how violent we are on the drum .we are not perfect... Love. Is unconditional. Handle with care.. Hiy. Hiy .
It's like praying, that dancer is saying "keep going, keep singing, thank you". and you respect that by taking off your hats. He is also thanking them for that song cause it brings back memories.
thank you for asking this question. they didnt even give him an acknowledgement. he was giving prayers and medicine, that they shouldnt even have recorded. Tommy christian is bad ass champion !!!!!
U guys should complain about all the other vidz bout peyote meetings, ceromonies, sweats, n all of out sacred acts too...... I dnt see this as disrespect...... its a beautiful thing too see and watch so y can't u record it huh??? After all this vid was recorded in public long ago in da 90's.... sacred acts my native ppl do aren't in public so dnt assume sht matter of fact dnt judge.... #PlainsCree #Treaty6
white man said our dances and songs were outlawed so we that's why you were taught that, its 2020 we can record our ceremonies now, Frank Fools Crow & Henry Crow Dog both said we need to record our ceremonies so we remember. and thats why you see young natives not knowing anything.
Relative, thus you need to forgive the white person. Hate is not love. The law is love. Do your fire blessings and prayers, to fall down upon this world, to love her and all your relatives. It's time to dare to love the world. Blue, red, yellow, white, the hoops shine for you, and only together will we, all my relatives, find the way home towards UNITY. Hate does not set you free. I hear your pain. Start to dream. White Buffalo Calf Woman sings for thee!
Relative the law is love. Lakota means to stand up, inside the ring of the nine streams. But you would have to know what this means in other words, you would have to listen to your heart. I am not going anywhere and will be standing hear. The Great Sioux Nation are the Spirit of the Lake people, which means, we send the spirit of the Holy Ghost, the soul within to shine. We say, "we are all related". Thus my relative, hate is not on the plate. Love is the reigning factor on all waves. Wbcw lands
This shouldn't have even been recorded like that respect the whistler and the drum while they sang. Alot of people dont know our cultural ways and losing them... Its just for views and likes now a days
Aiya'ai, Cwe'n, She:kon, Kwey, Annii, does anybody know the lyrics in the language and its translation? I wish to sing this song but it is hard to make out the Lyrics. I was taught to sing songs I know the meaning to, and I would love to share this beautiful gift of a song to our southern sisters and brothers. Aishendaa'gaa, Nia:wen!

The White Calf is born!!!
I love the power in their voice. My ears do not understand what they are saying but my heart does. Its beautiful.
@Susan Sandfly is this the official translation to this song?

@Colby Thomas ok sweet! I'd thought I'd ask. Thank you.
@Susan Sandfly Cree is such a beautiful language. Wish I could hear this in Lakota

HOKAHEY! This such a beautiful song and one of my all time faves!. Drum groups across the continent are singing this song. Great honor, great words, great message. Wapila
The way he walks up to the drum..🤩
I used to practice dancing to this song when I was 14 as n. Tradish because it has a good steady beat...
singing this song back in the day always gave me blessings and good feelings... I'm now a retired singer. use to sing with young eagle cree.
And when he blows the whistle hes honoring the drum, creator and ancestors ..and this song being the "White Buffalo Calf" song is honoring white buffalo calf woman
One of the most beautiful song I've heard

Oops I forgot to tell you who i was talking about .Dean lacroix .his other name is chief white buffalo man many feathers . he is old school in what he wears
Have you ever witnessed a Woman Whistle a Drum, or Fan a Drum? Miigwetch.
Hello everyone . my name is chief white buffalo man many feathers ..if you have a time really watch me dance n ask your self .what do I see or feel inside of you . if this happens to you your are being filled with ullu .unconditional love love.love unconditional love freely given .n just maybe new things will happen to you or a healing
which one are you then???
I know this was a while back, but at a powwow they told people they were not aloud to record the song when whistlers were dancing , but I'm not ranting just sharing something I heard ..
I was thinking the same thing, but i've been told by my drum keeper that at a contest powwow tradition doesn't matter, sad i must say .-.
yeah , its should be the same , for any powwow.. but everyone gets different teachings
Or at least have some traditional values at contests. And true that.
They'r not suposed to take this whistleling in video?
nice chapazane hooah that means dance hard thank you hocka.
That is Sweet powerful
There is a true story. Why. We beat the drum..
A woman came down. From the sky of heavens...brought a stick and drum..offered to us men...so. For the reason. That we men can not beat our women and children..so when ever we get frustrated. We. Take it on da drum . so as u can see how violent we are on the drum
.we are not perfect...
Love. Is unconditional.
Handle with care..
Hiy. Hiy .
Wow!! Thats incredible..
I see a few people are upset with the cameraman. Can you tell me what it is that was disrespectful,? I'm still learning about the culture ;)
Who's the guy with the red face paint? In the old days a gift is given to the drum after the song ends.
Tommy Christian
Does anyone know what year this was recorded?
does anyone know the dancer blowing the eagle whistle???
It's like praying, that dancer is saying "keep going, keep singing, thank you". and you respect that by taking off your hats. He is also thanking them for that song cause it brings back memories.
That is Tommy Christian from Montana
thank you, does he still dance?
thank you for asking this question. they didnt even give him an acknowledgement. he was giving prayers and medicine, that they shouldnt even have recorded. Tommy christian is bad ass champion !!!!!
yes
Are they speaking cree or Sioux, I really can’t tell😂
Cree
who's the man who blows the whistle????
has to be from 96 97 era
Anyone have the words in the language? not translated, want to ask my kokum if she can translate it for me
U guys should complain about all the other vidz bout peyote meetings, ceromonies, sweats, n all of out sacred acts too...... I dnt see this as disrespect...... its a beautiful thing too see and watch so y can't u record it huh???

Was taught, when your drum gets whistled, you remove your hats like the drummers in the video, and never ever record ghe dancer or singers
Niska Outfitters that’s how it should be, this video shouldn’t have been recorded the way it did
white man said our dances and songs were outlawed so we that's why you were taught that, its 2020 we can record our ceremonies now, Frank Fools Crow & Henry Crow Dog both said we need to record our ceremonies so we remember. and thats why you see young natives not knowing anything.
Shouldn't be hitting that sacred grandpa that hard - fuck i'd really scold if i was there

What is there to hide? The Creator sees all that there is and I’m sure he does not want to hide anything. Spirituality can be for all want to participate and Creator wants us to share the beauty with all who we encounter. It is better to extend and hand of friendship and love as opposed to one who points a finger of ridicule.
The reason that many of these ways are still here is that our people had to go underground and practice their ceremonies in private away from the eyes of a conquering nation. It is a belief system that still has a hold of many of our people.
Thanks for sharing. I didnt know he was your friend .. I was always told not to record songs after they've been fanned/whistled.
