Just watched uproar where a version of this song was used in the film if not this one. Quite fitting is that many years ago a tourism advert I used to see on UK TV for new Zealand used this song by crowded house as their backing song to the visuals for their new Zealand tourist advert. Always brings back great memories of new Zealand with the family when I hear crowded house don't dream it's over.
Wow all my years of watching Home and Away .... who woulda thunk ay???... Te Ao Maori presence felt, gobsmacked 💕💯💝 ps. I haven't watched H&A since Harry? and the Greek wahine lol🤣 Arohanui whanau❤🫠
Love this. I have seen it described as delicate,a great way to describe the work. Love the harmony work and the gentle sounds in the arrangement. as I said LOVE IT 😀😍😀
It would be really interesting to hear of the story of your loss ,and the sacred journey of healing you travelled. Your spiritual essence is very comforting, and your gentle voice comforts my broken heart. I too have suffered loss and yearn for something or someone to replenish my waining soul. I look forward to listening to your new album. ❤
Seth I watch this at least 3x a week and reshare it on my Insta & FB so often for myself, and friends around the world. I have a similar story of retracing my ancestors to Hawaii and the loss of my dad Kolohe who was 6'4 a star athlete in both FB & BB in HS and college, offered full athletic scholarships to every one of the Big 10 SEC. He chose Mizzou (University of Missouri drafted by legendary NFL coach Dan Devine in 1959-1963 where he met my haole mom, and 5 yrs later I came along. But he was uprooted from Paia Maui at age 12, relocated to a foreign land (Missouri in the central part of US where it was still terribly racist and Polynesians and Asians were treated much the same as African Americans, adopted into a conservative rigid haole life, taken away from the sea and palm trees and Tradewinds and Hawaiian culture and his by age 40 his life had spiraled into alcoholism from those traumatic wounds of loss of culture, loss of ohana, loss of 'aina. So when I play this I think of him and what could have been had he been left to live where he belonged on Maui. It's the most beautiful melodic arrangement and the film of your coming home shot on what looks like Super 8 (which I love this style) and you with your Ohana and holding that keki and I even now I can sing along having studied the lyrics. So similar to Hawaiian. I love ALL of your music and I would love to know who directed, edited or created this film because it's elegant, powerful, compelling, profoundly timeless and gives us all a historical vision (could be 1700s 1800s 1900s Tahiti Nui ) and story of the journey of Polynesians finally coming home "Moemoeā" be 1700s 1800s 1900s Polynesia. Mahalo Nui Loa again
@@SethHaapu 1st heard you on "Auckland Daze" "Final destination" is inspired man. I play your music at farmer's markets in Melbourne. Lots of people say "who's this?.
ITALIAN TRANSLATED Autostrada deserta, ai confini del mare, senti il cuore più forte di questo motore, sigarette mai spente, sulla radio che parla e io che guido seguendo le luci dell'alba. Lo so, lo sai, la mente vola, fuori dal tempo e si ritrova sola, senza più corpo ne prigioniera, nasce l'aurora. Tu sei dentro di me come l'alta marea, che scompare e riappare portandomi via, sei il mistero profondo, la passione, l'idea, sei l'immensa paura che tu non sia mia. Lo so, lo sai, il tempo vola, ma quanta strada per rivederti ancora, per uno sguardo, per il mio orgoglio, quanto ti voglio. Tu sei dentro di me come l'alta marea, che riappare e scompare portandomi via, sei il mistero profondo, la passione, l'idea, sei l'immensa paura che tu non sia mia. Lo so, lo sai, il tempo vola, ma quanta strada per rivederti ancora, per uno sguardo, per il mio orgoglio, quanto ti voglio. Per dirti quanto ti voglio. Per dirti quanto ti voglio. Per dirti quanto ti voglio.
