He is Maori, indigenous to Aotearoa (New Zealand) we love him here in our land of the long white cloud, conflicting stories as whether he was born in NZ or Australia, it’s been said he was born in Melbourne and it’s been said he was born in NZ and grew up on his Marae in a place called Mt Maunganui Tauranga, and then went to live in Australia with his family, he now lives back here in NZ, has been back here living for quite awhile now, he is a wonderful young man who embraces his culture, he has never forgotten his roots and who he is, I admire him greatly for how he’s embraced his culture, I’ve loved him and followed him since he won Australian Idol in 2009, each and everyone of his songs is amazing, his voice is something very unique, and powerful, that song doesn’t bring out the power of his voice though, you need to watch his song he wrote for the Ava De Vernay movie Origins, the song is called I am, it’s breathtaking, written by him and a friend in two weeks I believe, I’m pretty sure most of his songs are written by him and sometimes with other people, his family has a rare cancer gene, long story short he had to have his stomach removed due to stomach cancer in about 2017, so he basically had to learn to sing again, but luckily it didn’t effect his amazing voice, so that’s the basics of our amazing Stan, but please check out some of his other songs, oh there was also a documentary on him going through his stomach removal operation and his recovery, 😍
I agree with the above comment- I don’t feel that Michael has seen what Stan can actually do yet. As you suggest he needs to check out “I AM” from the film soundtrack for Origin. Stan recorded this song not long after he had his entire stomach removed and given the role of the diaphragm in producing vocal power this is nothing short of miraculous! He has since had 17 surgeries, he’s had his kidney and appendix removed and has suffered multiple life threatening infections and complications from his stomach removal. Yet he has the voice and spirit of an angel. Incredible.
Not Australia…..New Zealand…big difference. This is new Zealand’s culture…..we are proud of Stan. If u have time listen to I AM, He wrote it for a movie that has been released about 1 month and half…..then just released a new song about 2 weeks ago. You will love his voice.😊
cool reaction Mike , Stan is wearing pig tusks and Hamo Dell is wearing bone carvings . We New Zealand Maori are very similar to the Haiida Gwaii natives in British Columbia we share some history from around the end of the BC era
Defintely Ultralight Beam and I Am are great to show off his voice. He wrote I Am and Ultralight Beam is a cover. A playful one that shows another avenue his talent can take you is Come Back Home. Theres actually so many - Amazing Grace is super powerful too! Enjoy! Yo!! ❤
Yeah probably next stop for the stan train for musicality would be "ultralight beam" although hes a diamond in the rough out in the big wide world of music.
Nice reaction bro.....welcome to Stan Walkers journey....a true talent with a rich tone with many songs that u will enjoy. From Nz winning Australia idol has shared his beautiful voice ......please react to his cover of Ultra light beam you will appreciate the arrangement used in this cover. New Sub here😊😊😊
Awesome reaction, It's always good to hear the analysis from those in the industry. Stan & Hamo also did an impromptu performance of "Three Little Birds" a.k.a Uncle Bob (Bob Marley) cover as he is known in NZ. Hamo Dell solo songs "Feeling Right", "Little Things", "MAIA"
Soul deep - Stan Walker Definitely recommend this for you!!! A song which was part of a movie Stan Walker was in. Has a nice little guitar solo in there!
Hi Mike, I love this collab. Stan is a star, listen to him all the time. Dell I do not know her music, yet, she has a beautiful voice. I was mostly intrigued with your guitar insights a nice change, I'm glad we're here, from down under...Peace🤙☝️🙂
Sir your guitaring skills are pretty phenomenal. Really enjoy how you can play from sound. You're very handsome and just come across as a genuinely nice guy. Thank you for your reactions and helpful comments. 🎉❤
one of my fav driving songs .... both born in New Zealand Hamo (her full name - Hamokiterangi) was born in Invercargill and Stan is an East coaster (parents born in New Zealand) i think born in Australia (Melbourne) thank you for listening and reacting .... you may want to check out Teeks (short for Te Karehana Gardiner-Toi) one of his many songs ua-cam.com/video/uwlDB5cWugA/v-deo.html
Thanks Mike for reacting to this one, not many people react to this one. 03:27 That riff reminds me of another song by L.A.B called Controller you should listen too. They're very versatile with so many bangers. - In the Air - Controller - Personify - Natural - Fashion Dread - Proud Man - Ain't No Use (Live at One Love 2021) etc... Their Live Studio, Roundhead or Massey, performances are always best. As for Stan, Power Mode is an understatement. Listen to "Ultralight Beam" (Kanye West cover), "I AM" or "Don't Dream It's Over" (Crowded House cover) etc... Hope you enjoy the Music scene in NZ. There are quite a few Kiwi artists you should listen too.
love your reactions. Both artists are from New Zealand, Stan is incredible. It's just under a 4 hour flight to Australia from NZ. Can you please check out "L.A.B - Ain't No Use" Live at One Love 2021, a band from New Zealand
Please do Stan Walker 'I am' from Ava DuVernay movie Origin...then down the Stan rabbit hole you may gooooo ♥♥♥Kia kaha ehoa ♥So cool it inspired you to pull your gat out...yeaaa ♥♥
I hope you getva chance to do additional videos from Stan if they don't get blocked...maybe you'll have put a filter or something over the video like some other channels do to avoid that issue. Sigh.
And my daughter had her DNA ancestry done, me too, and my daughter is about 5% Hawaiian 1% Samoan which was a surprise, 🙂my husband is Maori Pakeha, so yes the Maori did arrive on our shores in the great Waka’s from Hawaiiki 😍
@@lynnemclaughlan996 Yes 👍🏻 it’s a fact . Kiwi Europeans trace their lineage back to Europe. Maori should take an interest in their genealogy back in polynesia.
This is the wrong song to start with! Check out his cover of 'ultra light beam', it's phenomenal. Then his most recent 'I am' is amazing. Those are his flagship songs for me which showcase his passion and talent.
Yeah they're not from Australia, they're actually from New Zealand. Do your back ground checks thoroughly. So much for watching you but far too many interruptions for my likely. I thought it was a review of Stan Walker & Hamo Dell.
Do you know what a cold reaction is? Where you go in with no knowledge and discern what you can from the track without prejudice or expectation? This is MY reaction to this song on this day….you’re free to roam wherever your heart desires.
They are both indigenous Maori from Aotearoa, New Zealand the culture is very strong
Cant wait for your deep dive with Stan🥰, you wont be disappointed😊
Oh I have been wanting to introduce you to Stan Walker for a while now. Very happy you’re checking him out.
It was blocked….I did this a month ago…..the dispute just ran out yesterday without response so I can finally release it. ✌️
@@shonamcnally5855 it’s never the artists.
@@michaelgoyettemusic oh wow UA-cam is so random! I’m looking forward to checking this out.

Stan Walker definitely has power mode. His cover of "Ultrallight Beam" and his latest song "I Am" are both amazing among many others.
Dont forget Maori ki te Ao his absolute new song, "Maori to the world" welcome this guy to the Stan Walker rabbit hole lol
Not Australia…..New Zealand…big difference. This is new Zealand’s culture…..we are proud of Stan. If u have time listen to I AM, He wrote it for a movie that has been released about 1 month and half…..then just released a new song about 2 weeks ago. You will love his voice.😊
I really like it when reactors have their own twist on these videos. Another guy played along with his piano

Cool reaction bro. I like how you broke the music down.
Kia ora bro he's actually Maori from New Zealand great reaction
Also "Maori ki te Ao" is by Stan...this song was used on a TV advertisement also
Thanks Mike for reacting to this one, not many people react to this one.
03:27 That riff reminds me of another song by L.A.B called Controller you should listen too. They're very versatile with so many bangers.
- In the Air
- Controller
- Personify
- Natural
- Fashion Dread
- Proud Man
- Ain't No Use (Live at One Love 2021) etc...
Their Live Studio, Roundhead or Massey, performances are always best.
As for Stan, Power Mode is an understatement. Listen to "Ultralight Beam" (Kanye West cover), "I AM" or "Don't Dream It's Over" (Crowded House cover) etc...

Can you please check out "L.A.B - Ain't No Use" Live at One Love 2021, a band from New Zealand

Listen to his cover of Kanyes Iltralightbeam and then all songs from that session
I hope you getva chance to do additional videos from Stan if they don't get blocked...maybe you'll have put a filter or something over the video like some other channels do to avoid that issue. Sigh.
The blockers work sometimes. Not always. I will try!!
Hamo
Pronounced: Ha!! More
But say it in a little quicker tone of the natural voice.
Bring the two words together…
Hamore!!
The Maori are migrants.
They emigrated to New Zealand alongside other Polynesians, Europeans ,Asians and other ethnicities.
And my daughter had her DNA ancestry done, me too, and my daughter is about 5% Hawaiian 1% Samoan which was a surprise, 🙂my husband is Maori Pakeha, so yes the Maori did arrive on our shores in the great Waka’s from Hawaiiki 😍
@@lynnemclaughlan996 Yes 👍🏻 it’s a fact . Kiwi Europeans trace their lineage back to Europe. Maori should take an interest in their genealogy back in polynesia.
@@unclejoe7958 it’s fascinating 😍
Being called Australian! Is like you being called American FYI.. 😊
This is the wrong song to start with! Check out his cover of 'ultra light beam', it's phenomenal. Then his most recent 'I am' is amazing. Those are his flagship songs for me which showcase his passion and talent.
Say it like this say hum then say oh and then say it together faster 😂
You talk too much
Yeah they're not from Australia, they're actually from New Zealand. Do your back ground checks thoroughly. So much for watching you but far too many interruptions for my likely. I thought it was a review of Stan Walker & Hamo Dell.
