I so admire this young man his insight into his Māori identity as well as his Aussie Aunties and Uncles difficult journey after displacement from their land and the trauma they experienced is honest and refreshing he gets it, he’s a light and Im sure his love will inspire and change a generation of youngsters. Every person has worth find their strength, nurture and encourage and watch them bloom.

I think a lot of people in the world mistake self-esteem with lack of humility. Thank you so much, Stan Walker, you are awesome, keep going strong, everybody needs you and people like you. 🌟😊
So much respect for Stan and what he stands for. Your mana is strong From idol to now - your growth is amazing. Such a great communicator - you are truly gifted Stay strong & committed. Aloha 🤙🏼🌺🌿
Love you Stan. Please don't let anything or anone change the real you EXCEPT God. He knows uou better than you know yourself. Continue eith all that you do unto the Lord. You have been called Stan. Bless you.❤❤❤
Wow! Wow! & Wow! Couldn't stop listening. Could hear, feel and see his passion syphening through. Wicked role model, awesome advocate and an inspired individual. Mihi Aroha ki a koe Stan/Roto - thank you for sharing your journeys with us. Kia kaha tonu 🤍🧡❤
Ka pai Stan, I remember when you started out and you appeared at Matatini Christchurch, I was one of those shy ones who wanted to just hug you because you are Maaori and you won Australian Idol. But you looked too shy too and I think at that time we were excited behind closed doors, I was busy with Aukati kaipaipa at the time, making Aotearoa smoke free and thats coming up in 2025. I cant sing to save myself, but I am kapa kaiarahi and will do my best for my whanau too. I love your work Stan, you are amazing, God Bless to you and your whanau and be safe.
God bless you..,..sharing your experiences to help others....🙏🙏🙏....just stumbled into your song I am and thank God for leading me to your channel....greetings and prayers. What you experience in your family is our story too .."talking down," humility mis understood.... alot of learning and healing needed to for all ..God bless you and your family...
Stan is such a TRUE and wonderful Young Man. I truly appreciate his Talent, Heart not just his People and Culture but for ALL Cultures. Stan GOD is Blessing you, Family, your Life, Passion, Purpose and Legacy. Please give him strength to keep going and standing in his truth.🙏🏽🥰
OMG totally understand the shift in how we were bought up to free ourselves from that since having our children and then grandchildren. It's been a presence and showing and giving Aroha. Letting them know that they're of value and loved. The most meaningful is that they know their whakapapa and their turungawaewae, these mokopuna being born in Australia and Aotearoa.
.... Ephesians 3:20-21. ....To him who by means of his power working in us is able to do so much more than we can ever ask for, or even think of: to God be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus for all time, for ever and ever! Amen.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Life is not always an easy journey...Living here in Germany proves that. Born and raised in the North Island, to see my land again is but a dream. I am old, but the words I hear from Stan makes me think I can rest in peace when I leave. Whanau
Stan you are their Teacher, and the children are your Teacher, and everyone around us can teach us something, that’s part of your purpose, because Stan is so much more, a son a brother, a father a husband, a uncle and so on… Stan is a Star 🌟 I’m a new big fan of his, he is so authentic and real and that’s what I love about him plus his spirituality…. Oh and that Voice is god sent thank you lord.❤🎉❤
Kia ora Stan, I loved your singing, I have been a fan of yours since you were on Australian Idol, and was really amazed when I watched this video your journey and all the struggles you've been through with cancer, since your singing Career, NOT to mention your childhood upbringing and abuse. I really do understand every word you have mentioned in this interview, what you have said about teaching this generation these days, about living life, and teaching them right from wrong. Your The Man, you keep up the good work. :)
Hear hear Stan. Bring out the love and emotions we had to hide when we were kids. You are a bit younger than me but same type of "no emotion" upbringing. Love what you stand for. Whaia Tga
I just finish watching this and I've been watching reaction to Stan Walker and just love watching there reaction and I don't know maybe I'm over thinking but I feel Stan Walker is going to be our next Awhina Cooper,@Tama Iti and what they fought for but Stan does it in his music he is going places all over the world with is music and his culture keeping our Culture going. Thanks Stan for what you do.Mangai Piki Ora.
Wow! Stan's message is truly amazing. It's so uplifting and heartwarming. He is an inspiration and a shining example of how we can make a positive impact in the world. We can all have a dream, and with hard work, we can make it happen. Hearing his passion for advocacy and his belief that everyone has value is truly inspiring. He has touched so many lives, and I feel fortunate to have witnessed his incredible story and shared the emotions it evoked in me. Thank you!
💖🙏 Nga mihi kia koe e Stan!! You're life's journey, both good and bad no doubt resonates with a lot of not only Maori, but people in general. I am thankful to have watched this interview, and i also feel soooo happy that you are standing, sincerely n respectfully in a world that has not always been open to our people. So as Maori I am forever appreciative of you representing us and our tupuna with the respect and dignity for ourselves and others that we hold most important in our tikanga. God bless and all the best for you and yours in the future xx 🙏💖 xx
I totally get what he’s feeling. If I were famous would be my feelings exactly. Even on social media I don’t want my whole self/life to be public. Being a peasant I enjoy my privacy. But if I were a celebrity I know it comes with the territory yet one MUST demand respect for their standards. Stan has standards and he owes himself to protect what but he can💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾😍💕
Mauri ora Stan kei runga noa atu koe I love that you've never forgotten about home I went to your concert in wgtn 💗💗 omg we had mean names too lmao your are so right when you said shame gosh yip humble it's a powerful word
Wow I now got a lot more understanding about your passion stan awesome work an in what you believe in could not stop listening to you stan keep it up 😊 good job.
Stan you are an exceptional human, if I ever get the pleasure of running into you it would be an honour, you are so humble and real “and awesome”. What a journey you have been on and what a lot you have to share. I love that you are so in touch with your purpose. You radiate an energy that just touches people right in the heart. Your voice is heavenly and affects people in unique ways. Thank you for sharing all of your gifts and wisdom with the world, you truly are inspiring and I absolutely love you and everything you represent ❤ So much respect for you as a person and as much as I love your voice and your music on their own, I am loving learning about you more as a person and what you stand for, it makes me feel so much more connected to your songs. “I am” brought me to tears and it has infected my soul it plays over and over in my head especially the chorus and I can’t even speak the language hahaha I don’t even know what I’m saying 😅 but I love it. I have been binge watching you tube reactions to the song because I get to share the experience with others who had the same response to hearing it for the first time. It was so rich with culture and such a deep message that I can’t stop thinking about it and all I can say is THANK YOU 🙏 I also watched the movie because the song compelled me to and I loved it, now I want to buy the book and give it to my mum for Mother’s Day 💕 it’s touching people’s lives all over the world. Love you Stan, you’re what I call an earth Angel ❤
Hey Stan - thank you for your honesty here - such a very valuable good cause. I also just watched another video regarding your life of child abuse etc, and which also brought tears to my eyes. Your life in so many, many ways has been like another Australian singer - it's uncanny - I encourage you to read his new autobiography titled: Saved by the Light of the Buddha Within. What a similar story to yours it is and so full of valuable information that everyone needs to know about.
I so admire this young man his insight into his Māori identity as well as his Aussie Aunties and Uncles difficult journey after displacement from their land and the trauma they experienced is honest and refreshing he gets it, he’s a light and Im sure his love will inspire and change a generation of youngsters. Every person has worth find their strength, nurture and encourage and watch them bloom.

Take us all on that journey Stan... 💯💯💯💯
"We can't be ignorant in today's day and age." Ka tika hoki! E ao ō kupu, Stan. E mihi ana.
Take the next generation with you.
I have followed Stan's career, all these years. He has always, always impressed me. He is a fine example for his whānau in Mangatawa, Tauranga Moana.
You make so much sense Stan, love you, love your music ☮️
Beautiful straight up korero Stan

Stan you are the man so proud of you as a person and a beautiful soul
Everything you said Stan is soooooo true 😊✌. Confidence is a stigma in the Maori and Pasifica iwi. Much love Stan you mean Maori mean 😎🤙
Agree. Loved this. Kia kaha Stan, we all got you. You said everything right and yes don't envy the part being in the spot light (public eye).
May God continue to bless you abundantly, Stan. For choosing to do his, will. Thank you.🙏😍🎯💯
