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!
New subscriber from New Zealand. Stan is amazing and he is the epitome of talent. Watching you appreciate him and The Levites and the musicians .... I wanted to give you a hug there for a minute. Kia Ora brother.
I'm not a Christian but I am a person of faith. I love when people share their love for their Higher Power like this, whether it's the same as mine or not. It's a blessing to me. It allows me to feel love for them and their way whilst also allowing me to feel connected to my path.
@@tawake7895 Praise songs aren't something that's exclusive to any one religion. The feeling he's showing singing this is the same feeling I get singing mine.
Nice Reaction Ryan, I see the kiwi's are showing you who we vibe too in NZ. As you may have already figured out, artists from this part of the world don't get the same exposure as those from the US & UK hence the reason why our artists aren't as well known. A few other Kiwi artists you might want to checkout are Teeks - "First Time", Six60 - "Don't Forget Your Roots", "Up There" and L.A.B - "In The Air", Controller", "Fashion Dread", "Ain't No Use (Live at one Love 2021)", "Proud Man" etc
Thank you, blessed by your reaction to our awesome Stan, God's timing is perfect. Through Stan reaction videos I have found some wonderful artists channels to follow ❤️ Take care, Maori Chic, Sydney Australia xx 👋
im so glad that u.hav bern introduced to stan walker. he.is an amazing idol yo newzealand...he has overcome so much to be wea he is today...beautifully blessed nw🤗
You got the feels cos it touches your wairua (your spirit). Stan is Māori from NZ. He has a life documentary ~ years of childhood sexual abuse from cousin, violent father, stomach cancer etc. He's AMAZING! ... maybe watch some haka from NZ, that'll hit your heart & soul.
Stan learnt to sing growing up in church. He has been through a lot the name tattooed on his neck is his daughter who passed away. He also is a cancer survivor. Much respect for your reaction.
Thanks for a great reaction and kudos to you for the initiative to go and watch other reactors to this song, what a great idea for growth of your own channel.
Stan Walker was gifted a beautiful voice, he's humble n shares. I appreciate hearing ppls reactions as it never tires me listening to him. He's a young man worthy of reaping in every way. Thnx u
Thanks, was also going through a harsh time in life too so it hit home. I havent watched my own reaction, i never do, becsuse i don't script or rehearse anything, but find myself just letting it all flow for the viewer.
Great reaction - thank you for exploring NZ music! Love that you picked up how much Stan's music comes from the soul. Please check out more of his tracks, subscribed :)
I think this is my new favourite reaction to this song, beautiful song bro, I normally listen to Rap but Stan is the Man and I listen to him most days. New subscriber here bro
New Zealand’s finest! It’s the fact that Stan had his stomach removed after cancer. He’s not able to sing from his diaphragm like most and still sounds like this!
I just watched your reaction and it was amazing to see how much it moved you. Music does this to me to. Creative souls attract creative souls 🙏🏼 hope you are well.
Understated reaction, which made it more powerful. I could feel how you don't want to blow up something for no reason, but this was an undeniable performance.
Please please react to his new song: 'I am' from the film 'Origin'. It's amazing and I can't stop listening to it. It feeds the soul :) The other song I really like with this group is 'I am the colour' - a song with a message and also gorgeous -please react to it!
Kia ora (hello) cuzz from Aotearoa new zealand new sub for ya brother Hay I'll take you up on that no one is perfect..... Vocalist guitarist keyboard player percussionist song writer WARREN MAXWELL who is the front man for TRINITY ROOT'S AND THE LITTLE BUSHMEN ..... Trinity Root's song to check out is CITIZEN live at the tuning fork and THE LITTLE BUSHMEN song PEACEFUL MAN live with the new zealand symphony orchestra WARREN MAXWELL is next level insanely telented/Mellow man
That was a cool reaction from a heavy metal enthusiast. It would be interesting to see your reaction to a song Stan recently wrote for a movie by Ava Duvernay. It is called I AM {not to be confused with his other song I AM THE COLOR} . There is a official video. Stan also did a version of PURPLE RAIN when he was 18, No video just audio. React to it, that would also be cool. ua-cam.com/video/mu1Uuea9KcE/v-deo.html
Given that you like Stan Walker, a Maori singer, and also religious music I think you would probably like this Maori version of How Great Thou Art: ua-cam.com/video/nUlEJ24D6KY/v-deo.html. I would love to see your reaction to it. I am also curious how you would react to Hawaiian music: Josh Tatofi’s “Kāne’ohe” found on HI sessions is my favorite: ua-cam.com/video/Ru0g1pygcuk/v-deo.html
@@RyanREAX The song/video plays slower than it actually is, it's a little bit draggy, or sounding like it's in slow motion a little bit. Maybe listen to it from another source and compare? I'm not technical enough to know whats happening but my ears are sharp. Also please don't think I'm being a downer on your work, it's just if it was my channel i'd like a heads up :-) Good luck!
Check out wut haka is, and Karanga,Moteatea,and ngatangitangi ,nga waitaia, Stan's traditional music, thats how come he can sing like that, plus it's nothing new to maori.

Kia ora! You appeared skeptical initially but ended up "experiencing" the performance. Awesome reaction!🥰
When Stan Walkers cover is better than Kanye Wests original.
Straight up 💯🙌
Ive never even heard the original
Way better the original is definitely not as good as stans version
Totally agree. Having listened to the original, this blows it out of the water.
Who's kanye west? A cowboy?
Thank you for your reaction to our Legend Stan Walker. Big loves from New Zealand Aotearoa 💜

Thank you so much and I just love the ambience of your room i.e. the lights they create a calming effect.
Thanks, been in like 4 diff rooms since that spot xD i still got the same lights lol
He’s amazing and us back here in NZ love him and all our NZ music artists. Thanks for listening to him.
Respect brother from New Zealand
Can’t believe it’s a Kanye original. The guy is a bloody genius. Never heard the song ever before and it touched my soul. Beautiful cover Stan!

Know Jesus Know Peace. What are you waiting for?
You hav to have an encounter with God before you can understand why we sing thanks to God..and why it becomes a heavenly sound.
