      Amelia Tanzil it's hands down my favorite song of the movie and it feels way too short. In a sense it's one of the most important songs too as it's her being reminded of her heritage and how important what she's about to do is. I had massive goosebumps the first time I heard it.

      Lin, Lin-Manuel Miranda, The Linnamon Roll. Only the most genius, adorable ray of sunshine to ever grace the earth. The writer and star of both In "The Heights" and "Hamilton," he also wrote a great deal of the Moana soundtrack and sings as the old chief in this song

    As a Pacific Islander when I heard this song in the theatre for the first time I couldn’t hold my tears. This song has such an impact for Pacific people, it’s really moving cuz it tells our story and those of our ancestors with so much pride.

      Douglas Pupper a
      Yes, it's because of Hamilton. It's also because of his other two musicals, In the Heights and 21 Chump Street. His music has became very popular, and people just like him as a normal person in general. It's kinda hard to explain, but it's kinda like we're super fans of him.

    Lin is my favorite part of Moana. The first time I watched it, I hadn't listened to Hamilton yet. But I was babysitting my two cousins and we watched Moana. I heard Lin's voice and started freaking out. The two kids I were babysitting looked at me like they were concerned for my sanity. Honestly, they should be. That's what I get for being in the Hamilfam.

  • @tigeyavengerpotter8276

    One thing I didn’t know till late 2021 is that Lin, and all those guys was a HUGE part of my childhood. As a Polynesian we don’t really have much movies to represent us except for Lilo & Stitch, and this song for 4 years since it came out. It gives me such pride and joy, it makes me love my culture even more.

    I find it odd that two other songs from "Moana" were favorably mentioned in reviews, but not this one. The other two were OK, but this is the real deal. It captures the flavor of Aloha in a way the other songs do not. Sorry, but "You're Welcome," while droll, cannot compare.

    Obviously I was a child when it came out so I didn’t realise that lin was singing in it. I watched it again for the first time in a while the other day at my sisters house and heard it was lin. I literally started running around screaming for everybody to come and listen 😭

    I just want to point out that the pendant that the captain of the voyagers is wearing is the same pendant that Moana receives from her grandmother, the pendant that is used to store the heart of Te Fiti. I have a theory that Moana's ancestors recovered the heart, but it was lost when the chief's son didn't return to the island. When the ocean couldn't give the heart to baby Moana, it gave it and the pendant back to the grandmother. That's probably also why the chief gave his son the pendant before he departed, might it be because they were on a quest to restore it or just a superstitious thing.
