The 2nd song sings about the cluster stars of matariki (pleidas). For example, Matariki is the mother. Tupuanuku is a child. associated with everything that grows in soil. Tupuarangi is associated with everything that grows up in trees. Waipuna a rangi is associated to rain. Ururangi is associated to the winds. Matariki is Māori new year. With the appearance of the stars its time to plan and start your crop. When they dissappear its time to harvest. Māori Polynesian used the cluster to navigate the oceans.
YAYYYY. We probably bombard you with songs. Just letting you know its because we are so excited to share our culture with you, I/We appreciate you so much. Love itt.
I walked down the aisle to this waiata 10yrs ago. Always brings me back to that day 🥰. Maisey also went through cancer (breast) & is still currently on her healing journey. Im sure she’ll appreciate all the love ❤️
Yayyy finally a Maisey Rika reaction. She deserves all of her accolades. I think with your reaction to the slow mo wave scene, that's cos your wairua is tethered to the ocean too
Kia ora Errol have a look at the NZ band "ardijah", they created a style called Polyfonk from South Auckland. Ardijah formed in 1979 and spent the early part of the eighties playing the Auckland pub and club scene honing their skills as a covers band. My personal faves are "Do To You", "Watching You", "Polynesian Girl", "moonlighting" just to name a few. Love it if you could check them out
Ataahua tō whakaaro me to Mauri e hoa! Just watching you react to Waiata Māori is so SPECIAL bro! I can feel your connection to the Māori world and without a doubt you have an invisible and guiding force that re-links and has reconnected you to the Māori world (again) e hoa!!! Proof that all things are connected regardless of who or where we are in the world, and that our Lives don’t”begin” in the places we are born, and are a continuation of steps walked behind the veil of our birth, to where we exist in this now….some things are deeper then what’s in the surface and it’s something our Wairua knows beyond the minds explanation!!! Mauri Ora Mauri Tonu❤️ Thankyou
She would visit our small Cafe in Whakatane all the time with her little ones and they are the most humble, beautiful, kind, people I've had the privilege of serving.
Absolutely agree with you, probably has so many views due to Maori listening, I'm one of those that will go back time and time again. But hopefully the world is beginning to open up to and appreciate the awesome talent that is in Aotearoa. Mainly due to UA-cam and reactors as yourself. I love your reactions and the support you give to our singers / culture,
Matariki i te pō tells the story of what it signifies for us as Māori. Matariki is known around the world as the Pleaides(cluster of stars) but as you would already know by now everything has a life force and these are not just "stars or planets" to us, It means so much more and although our people have always celebrated Matariki it has only recently been recognized here in Aotearoa as a significant time for us as Māori and is now a national day off. It is our New Year and you are correct, it is a time for family, resting, harvesting, gathering, releasing, preparing, rejuvenating, celebrating, giving, etc. paying homage to Matariki. The dates change every year when Matariki starts to rise in the our skies. Of course this is only a brief explanation.
Hi! Fun fact, this waiata was used in a video game called Beyond Blue which is some kind of educational underwater game. The game is responsible for making the song popular internationally. Of course, Maisey is well loved in Aotearoa and around the Pacific and she has a few live performances in Tahiti I believe.
I think due to your love for the Maori People and their culture, you could have been a Maori in your previous lifetime. If I'm wrong, you were at least a Kiwi in your last life. Thanks to God's use of His little boy Stan Walker's example, you have embraced our people and their contribution to God's entertainment of mortal existence, and it's a beautiful thing you have brought to God's loving intent. Blessings always little Brother.🙏🏽🙏🏻🎤🎸🎵🎶🎼🥁🎹
Kia Ora for reacting to Maisey Rika cuzzy❤ If you haven't reacted to "Aotearoa" by Stan Walker, Maisey Rika, Ria Hall, Troy Kingi . It's really beautiful as well🎉❤
I’d love for him to watch the movie Whale Rider I know he would love that movie as he seems to be so in love with our culture. It’s very humbling to see his reactions
I’m not Māori….but Love their culture (similar to ours). Absolutely Love the Māori Language and they are so blessed with angelic voices… Am from Torres Strait Islands (Australia) and have nephews with Maori father. They are so proud of the Maori connection. Love this video… made me emotional too… Our connection to the Ocean, the Sea❤❤
Yahoo finally someone is reacting to her thank you Maisey is in “Aotearoa” with Stan, Troy n Rita…Stan n Maisey did a song together called “Find you” from a movie Stan was in called “Stolen” Check out his Stan’s Wedding “Matemateaone”….stunning. Chest beating music Love watching you ❤❤❤❤
I've seen Maisey many times performing. She is such a beautiful soul and so, so talented and humble. Our performers sing mostly about caring for one another, the environment, and remembering our ancestors and bring grateful for their sacrifices, and also to be staunch and resist racism. We have a very racist govt right now. Stan, Maisey, Ria and other Māori performers encourage us to stand and fight, like our ancestors, and be proud to be Māori! Ria Hall is standing for Mayor of her city, Tauranga!
Tangaora he name of our sea,ocean,river, lakes father, father of all water creatures. Everything in the sea, oceans, rivers, lakes are his children. And we always respect tangaro.
I also love Maisey's song Reconnect. The lyrics "Do you hear the Tūī call the Huia in the trees?" The Huia being extinct birds of NZ now, their tail feathers being highly prized by Māori were worn by chiefs... the lyrics suggest a reconnection to the traditional ways of our ancestors ua-cam.com/video/Ha7ytKqnpas/v-deo.htmlsi=XO2elY03RepbBNz8
Kool brother Maisy is our cousin we are so proud of all our family out there singing our language they govt here just about stole our language and we the people revived it now look this song always gives me soul feelings bro in our world the whales are our guardians ❤
The second song is about Matariki. In our myths Papatuanuku (earth mother) and Ranginui (sky father) were in a tight embrace, there was no light in the world just complete darkness. Their children wanted to seperate them to allow light in the world. They tried to push them apart but couldn't until Tane Mahuta (god of the forest) laid on his back and pushed with his legs and over a very long time he pried them apart. The other children were Tangaroa (god of the sea), Haumie Tiketike (god of cultivation), Tumatauenga (god of war and mankind), Ruaumoko the unborn (god of earthquakes and volcanoes) and Tawhirimatea (god of winds). Tawhirimatea was in a rage because even though it was dark he had freedom to move unlike the others. He fought his brothers one by one beating them up until Tumatauenga thrashed him. Tawhirimatea was so outraged that he ripped his eyes out and crushed then threw them into the sky. Creating the Matariki constellation also known by other cultures as Pliaedes. To this day Tawhirimatea thrashes the sea and land in rage and sorrow for the pushing apart of Papatuanuku and Ranginui. The erratic behaviour of wind is due to Tawhirimatea being blind. Could be other versions of this depending what tribe you are from but thats what my koro (grandfather) told me when i was young.
Before I was a Christian my worship music was Maisey she is beautiful, her voice is angelic and her connection to our land and spirit takes me to another place ❤
It’s the wairua you are feeling & I love the way Maisie is like Stan who chooses the beautiful scenery of where they come from👏❤️ & acknowledging nature & the environment
I’m SOOO happy you reacted to this one and where you feel something from the clip is exactly like me!! That’s why I love your reactions you definitely feel the same wave lengths within the videos and songs as I do❤❤❤
I went to Whakatane Intermediate with Maisey. That's where I first heard her sing in assembly. Her, and two others sung 'Going to the chapel' - in awe of her ever since.
From what i understand, the Atua Tawhirimatea (god of the wind) (the one with the eyes) gave his eyes to the heavens in despair of His father Ranginui (Sky father) and his mother Papatuanuku (earth mother) where separated from his brother Tane Mahuta (God of the forest) separated them. The eyes now we see as our Matariki cluster which comes in our winter, to the western world is know as the Pleaides(cluster of stars). Each star in the cluster represents different aspects of our natural world which has come into mainstream media and hopefully now fully into education. Maisey also names each star in her waiata. There is quiet a lot of information online, but always happy to have a korero if you would like.
I was wondering when you were going to find maisy she’s amazing and very talented and yes the water is that blue my parents live near where it was filmed.
My BIL house was usually the place nz musicians would turn up to for him to do tracks etc. Maisey Rika and her sister was one of those people when she was very young. I am very fortunate to have met a lot of nz artist through my BIL
Ataahua Wairua Waiata ! (Beautiful Spiritual Music) is our Ataahua Wahine Toa (Beautiful Warrior Woman), Awesome to see you absolutely blown away brother - she is poetry in motion forever and ever. One thing bro, her surname is pronounced (Rye-ka) Maisey Raika, Cheers from NZ (Aotearoa) Land of the long white clouds ; >)
❤❤ yeah we do have a beautiful language and a beautiful country..before we had religion maori had our own gods..tangaroa the god of the sea, we as maori made a pact with him that we'd respect the sea&protect the foreshores, in return he'd provide the people with seafood&allow safe passage wherever we voyage.he also gifted us the whales to protect us thats why we cherish them
They say when we Maori pass, our spirit goes on their last journey running 90 Mile Beach towards Cape Reinga. There is a Pohutakawa tree where our spirits' journey ends. Our spirit climbs down the roots of this tree to the underworld or our homeland Hawaiki. If you ever come to Aotearoa, you should head up North right up to the top to Cape Reinga, and when you look over and you can actually see the tree of spirits down below the hill. They say the tree is 800 years old.
Hey bro, just to help you out with Maori pronunciation, it is very similar to Hawaiian phonics. Our vowels are the backbone of every word so learning their phonics is 75% job done. The letters are the same as English(A, E, I, O, U) however they are pronounced much differently and hold the same sound as their names. A (ahh), E (ehh), I (eee), O(aww), U (ooo). Every other letter in our alphabet holds the same sound as its English counterpart with the exception of WH (f) and R which has a rolling, motorboatish sound. In its entirety, our alphabet is as follows A, E, I, O, U H, K, M, N, Ng P, R, T, W, Wh Once you have the phonics down, you basically can read in Maori as there is only very rare instances of variation but we’ll save that for a later lesson. Hopefully this helps you in the future
The volcanic island in the video is called whakaari it blew up in 2019 killing 22 people..this song makes me cry for those lost every time..The beach maiden is standing on is connected to the same beach Stan is standing on in I AM…React to TEEKS another Māori brother who has performed with maiden and Stan we are all from the same east coast line..TEEKS
Kiaora m’bro, you should check out AIO by Lost Tribe Aotearoa. I think you’ll enjoy it a lot 😊 Chur and have an amazing day, awesome reactions as always.

Hey I would recommend you watching Aotearoa by Stan Walker which features both Maisey Rika, Ria Hall & Troy Kingi
"A Ha Ka Ma" is a basic song that can help you learn to pronounce te reo. 👍

They say when we Maori pass, our spirit goes on their last journey running 90 Mile Beach towards Cape Reinga. There is a Pohutakawa tree where our spirits' journey ends.

Hey bro, just to help you out with Maori pronunciation, it is very similar to Hawaiian phonics. Our vowels are the backbone of every word so learning their phonics is 75% job done. The letters are the same as English(A, E, I, O, U) however they are pronounced much differently and hold the same sound as their names.
A (ahh), E (ehh), I (eee), O(aww), U (ooo). Every other letter in our alphabet holds the same sound as its English counterpart with the exception of WH (f) and R which has a rolling, motorboatish sound. In its entirety, our alphabet is as follows
A, E, I, O, U
H, K, M, N, Ng
P, R, T, W, Wh
Once you have the phonics down, you basically can read in Maori as there is only very rare instances of variation but we’ll save that for a later lesson. Hopefully this helps you in the future
Tautoko Ne!👆
👌❤️
