about

Sogor (Small Island mix)
Small Island Big Song ft' The Leweton Cultural Experience

For our fresh water
Dedicated to the water that flows across our land and sustains all life.

lyrics

The water music in this song is based on the Vus Ero rhythm, with a traditional song, Rim Rim Siag’ from the Merelava and Gaua Islands sung in the Mwerlap language, it is sung to invoke strength, either the physical strength to move a rock or for the emotional and spiritual strength needed to face exceptional challenges. This song gives you the power to do things you couldn’t normally do.
