I come from Uvea ,a little island near Fiji but i live in France. this song reminds me of my father. I don't usually leave comments but it's just to thank you. Your voice is so pure, your presence real even though you are so young. May God protect you and yours
Very humble of you to make it big in America on the world stage and still be able to come back to the island vibe and sing songs from your neighbors. Your Fijian sounds authentic as hell, toko!! You're the only one at the moment to bring new ears to classic islander music.
There is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in this Crazy World Better than Waking Up and Hearing you @Iam Tonga Singing a Beautiful Song!! ♥️🌴🌺🇺🇲 I'm a Father of 5 and I have to Say.....Your Father, God Rest His Soul 😢💔🥀, is Looking Down on You and is Sooooo Proud of You! ♥️ You Bring a Tear to my eye Everytime You sing...so Much Emotion!!! ♥️♥️♥️ Our American Idol!! God Bless and Your Family!! ♥️♥️♥️🌺🌴🇺🇲

Certainly one of the greatest languages for the expression of love in a great song sung by a great singer. Thank you Iam, the world is in dire need of your sweet voice.
Found your song “starting all over again” and absolutely fell in love with the sincerity in your music and voice. Nice to see you staying true to your culture and heritage. Peace and love!
A hauntingly beautiful song. Was going to ask for a translation. But no need, someone wrote the translation in the comments. The words were as hauntingly beautiful as the voice that sang it. Thank you and God bless you all Ramona from California
Beautifully sung, brother. In terms of the translation to the song: ERA BINI TU Sa laki taura na sui ni noqu i vola Au solia kina na noqu dodomo vei kemuni Mo laki karona ka mo maroroya e veigauna Salusalu ni bula ni tiko ma rau vei kemuni Chorus Era bini tu na vei mataqali rosi Ia vei au au domoni kemuni Me i cavai tu vei au na bula lewa Ni ko sa mai tinia koso ga e ke Moce sa moce sa laki moce vakadua Salusalu ni bula ni tiko ma rau e veigauna Au na maroroya kau na karona e veigauna Tiko marau e veigauna vei kemuni Chorus x 2 [Translation] For There Are Many.. You have finally taken the sentiments of my letter In which I wrote how deep my love is for you This, you may keep and cherish now and forever For a life full of happiness, I wish only for you. Chorus For there are many different kinds of roses But for me, you the only rose I see For what is left in life for me, my darling When things now have ended between us so soon. With sadness I say, farewell. My darling, farewell. A life full of happiness, I still wish only for you. Still will I love and I will cherish you now and forever May you always be happy and never ever be blue. Chorus x 2 Disclosure: I felt the AI generated translation was not as accurate and this is a close translation with the hope that it does not take away any sentiments tied to the song in the original iTaukei [Fijian] version. The final line of the second verse adds to the direct translation but keeps with the meaning behind the words where the song wishes only happiness for that one 'rose'.
Awww the first key took me straight back to my childhood made me all teary as this is one of those songs that connected us as Polynesian I’m a 53 yrs old Samoan and this Fijian song will always be part of our love for music growing up tbh we didn’t really know if we were singing the correct lyrics 😅 thanks Iam for being our idol ❤❤❤GB you through out your career
