Watched this over and over. Brings back memories. I learned this song and story in elementary school in the 70s. Played guitar with my Maori teacher too. The only song I remember from those days.

Thanks boys. My class is using your waiata "narrative" in their Science Inquiry. Such a rich performance with so many beautiful elements to explore.
