Pacific soul song/s...

This is one of my fave songs in the early 2000s by the girl group Pacific Soul. They formed in the early 2000s and released a couple of albums but then after a few tours, they disbanded and pursued other interests.

However, you can still hear their songs at weddings as dance items, at 21st birthday parties and other special occasions where Samoans will be dancing. At the moment, I'm enjoying this particular song for my morning exercise as I'm sure other Samoans are on their earphones.

They also have another popular song that I often hear which is called 'Mamalu o Samoa' both songs are not their original songs but their renditions are nice especially with the ukelele in the background.

For another generation of Samoans, songs like these continue to remind us of how unique and blessed we are in our unique culture, dance, songs, solos, language, tattoos, custom, cultural protocols, foods, jokes etc. Enjoy - ma ia manuia...
