Now this is just my thought but there's just something so weird seeing the boys do that swaying it only about 10 years ago I noticed that boys started dancing like that recently I've also noticed they also do that swaying when they dance Big Buffalos I never danced that way and back in the early 2000's I've never seen it danced that way even my grandfather thinks it looks weird and he's been around since the 50's
Agreed on the point that the whites are not the only people that are "lost". And you are correct in your deciphering the meaning of "brought back home". I can only think of one way that would solve much of what has been done to the Earth, and that is to begin living as traditional as we can, and at peace with one another. How to accomplish this with the addition of modern day technology, WE (the global community) will have to start figuring that out.
I love music and dances of ancient cultures and although I understand and respect the reasons for keeping them private, sacred and pure, I am also very grateful to have had the opportunity to hear them. As I watched and listened to this dance, I wondered if the words in the vocal chants have particular meanings or whether they are simply vocal sounds which are made to represent something in order to give it resonance? Simply put, are they actual words or sounds for this piece also for others? Thank you.
Perhaps because they're trying to express appreciation of the beauty of the ceremony and the skill of those performing it. The Lord's Prayer, when sung as opposed to spoken, usually IS applauded, AFAIK. One cannot expect a person to properly express appreciation in an unfamiliar cultural context if they have not been taught how to do so. If they were, shame on them. But if not, they aren't doing it in a spirit of offensiveness. They probably think they're giving thanks to the performers.
You must not get off the rez much -- You can't expect outsiders to know the proper reaction to everything foreign to themselves. You comment as if the audience was acting in an offensive manner on purpose. The audience were appreciative. Don't get all Casino-Face about your outrage. I used to be closed-minded at one time. People used to look at me weird when I would applaud and hoot and holler once inside the large auditorium known as IKEA.
A beautiful ceremonial dance, but I am continually perplexed by the people who applaud at the end of the religious ceremonies and rituals. This isn't entertainment, but there they are clapping like they would after some circus act. I can only imagine the outrage if people started clapping after the Lord's Prayer or the consecration of the bread and wine in a church.
So I'm not the only one who has thought about that....excellent point.

There's some mellow parts in the song and there's words in the songs too that have meaning
