Meme, #1



“Tutuki” by Te Vaka, from the CD “Tutuki” This group’s founder, Opetaia Foa’i hails from Samoa, but Te Vaka incorporates music from all over the South Pacific. Te Vaka (which means ”canoe”) has numerous members, many of which are Opetaia’s family. I love this song for it’s energy. It’s impossible to be depressed and listen to this song. The entire CD is wonderful and features lyrics in several South Pacific languages. English translations are in the CD booklet.

Interesting compilation of music in this group. I haven't bought a CD in ages it seems and I like the idea of music that is original and unique. There's a whole world of music that I've yet to discover.

Crystal: That's the great thing about the Internet. You can order (or download) all sorts of music you wouldn't normally have access to.
