I am so proud of the first people of their land which we call Australia they are so talented in art and music. They have such a Rich Culture and I believe they are the only true absolute Australians in this magnificent country we all call home...
Even though I'm not Indigenous, all of Yothu Yindi's songs moved me. When ever I heard him sing and it was just the clap sticks and didgeridoo, I get shivers all over and get goosebumps. Musical expression can communicate above any language. So beautiful.
You felt the Yolngu magic from pop and the crew. Wait until you hear the power of those instruments and the metronomes during ceremonies, very magical and universal stuff.
As a black and Native American, I can relate to this music which touches my soul at the end we are all one black family! Just Amazing!!! Love💖and respects to our native Australians 🇦🇺
It's about time we embraced these ppl and gave them our outmost respect. Not blah blah political bullshit and fake promises. Just real respect and acknowledgements for their rights. That's all they asking for.........
@@johntonks1926 I'm the same John. I worked 2 yrs Western Creek Station and some Arnhem Lands lads helped us with mustering. The digg' resonantes my soul when i hear it, and i recall the campfire nights listeng to these fella's play their birth songs. Apparently i was being honered by getting to hear them.
Year 2024- Greetings from Papua New Guinea- I was in grade 4 in 1991 and this song was very popular, my dad was a fan of Australian singers like Yothu Yindi & Slim Dusty were his favourites,we loved the music and song lyrics because it reminds us of our own land in PNG we can relate to the First Nations people...❤❤
Amazing time in NE Arnhemland in late 80s and early 90s. The band would invite the local townsfolk out to Yirrkala twelve or so kms away, for impromptu concerts. They played on the back of a semi trailer, where locals became part of their video or the band were performing on ground level staging and joined by Midnight Oil playing gratis when they visited Yirrkala. And that's where we all sang and danced and danced some more. Way before all the world fame arrived, about a dozen of us crammed into the small back lounge of the one local town pub, no staging, to hear Yothu Yindi perform. They were an amazing band of artists and they had that IT factor to make their mark on the world and what a WOW mark it was.They were so inclusive to all of us locals. And then the who's who of the music artists started visiting NE Arnhemland too. And then the politicians came and they kept coming. Thousands of kilometres from the bright lights, big cities and seats of power and this band raised our knowledge and awareness and educated us locals as well as the masses at home and worldwide. The band's message still cuts through across the decades. A referendum is in the winds blowing now. (Q&A14/4/22). 'We are much older now.' RIP charismatic respected frontman and keyboard player with the "voice of an angel". (15/4/2022)
White fella as well. I've never understood why every cafe/lic venue/hotel or public place does not have at least one person who can play. It is nowhere else in the world and just hearing it, relaxes me.
We love yothu yidi and our country Australia 🇦🇺🖤💛❤️😘I'm not an Aboriginal but I am and you are we are Australian 😘 and I'm very sorry for everything that y'all went through.
The title 'Djapana' basically means sunset, but the song Yothu Yindi singing is also means sorrow for that first people of this land across Australia and no matter what we will still be here.
We don't know if they were the first there's no evidence to prove it either way because no research is allowed to be done. And the words only have that meaning to the people in that area not across Australia . The northern territory languages are different to every other language around the country
@@lynetteedwards812 we don't know if the Aboriginal people were first because evidence is extremely hard to find other than cave paintings that Aboriginal people say they didn't paint. But the white Aborigines won't allow any research to be done because they won't get all the welfare money if they weren't the first
I love Yothu Yindi. They are an iconic band with so much talent. Lead singer Yunupingu passed away from kidney disease at 56. He was a trailblazer that bought Aboriginal culture to the mainstream. He was also the very first indigenous Australian principal. Rest peacefully Yunupingu.❤
The memories you must have created for yourself, very envious indeed! If there’s one person alive that I could dream to meet, it would definitely have to be David Gulpilil another extraordinary artist in his own right but in this modern age with Covid etc, I shan’t think I will ever be able to live out my life long dream 😢
I'm almost 40yrs old now and I first heard this song in the early 90s, when just a kid. Hearing the lyrics made me tear up and the goosebumps I got my goodness! Still to this day I feel exactly as I did when I was a boy. So powerful it pierces the hearts of many people. Thank you, Yothu Yindi!! Rest in peace.
I like Yothu Yindi, I listening from de mine operations in Peru. Good music. I Remembe when Stracon was Born in Brocal, with Karl Vandenbrenk, Steve Dickson australian and new zeland guys, that listenined this music in the night shift in the open pit mine in Cerro de Pasco Peru. Good times.
If you were white, would you still be proud and would you say it freely in public? If not, why not? And if so, why be proud of an arbitrary genetic trait that you had no control over? Pride typically comes from personal accomplishments.
As an Aussie, I am so proud of this group's music. It gives me such joy right down to my soul but sadness too that some of the members have passed and that the group is now more. But their music lives on and on..... Love it!!
Whoever has no heart in liking this beautiful music of our country's and all over the world in Australia especially the WA and the Kimberley's. I gotta love all my families and my country and I'm proud of it and it doesn't matter cause I'm from NT and WA in both ways and I'm both.
keep dreaming my brothers and sisters...... the dream time wont die it will take over once again... but better then before.. dont lose sight of the dream luv yas all
Even tho us aborigine people nor supposed to look listen and hear our ancestors voices but I'm sorry no-one stopping me to listen to our uncle The legend Of All Time aboriginal music RIP, uncle 🌹
as a white Australian I love the aboriginal Australian culture and I hope one day we can all live together as one in peace. I also respect the fact that the aboriginal Australians are the First Nations people. love to all the aboriginal Australians out there 🇦🇺❤️
The only thing that prevents people living in peace is left-wing politicians and other Marxist agitators in society whose very existence relies on creating and fostering divisions for political purposes. If people lived in peace and politicians actually solved problems, then the cretins would serve no purpose. They invent problems to ensure their continued careers. Also "First Nations" people is an oxymoron, as indigenous people were nomadic. They had no concept of nations or the existence of other countries for thousands of years, until settlers arrived.
We will never bridge the gap because there are people that are making lots and lots of money by that not happening who claimed to be Aboriginal when are clearly not
This is a great song. I want to hear more of the digeridoo in modern music. Just an awesome sound. I really only know of the song Treaty from Yothu Yindi - going to have to listen to more! We need more of this music today - it brings people together. Love and respect to our First Nations people of Australia - always!
I’ve decided to close this chapter of my life and encapsulate the wonderful times that I’ve shared with you into fond memories good luck my friend in your new life yothu yindi you will be in my heart forever.
When ever I hear this it takes me back to 1992 when this song was played at my year 7 graduation. Had a certain dance we had to do and still remember how to do the dance. Be 32yrs come December. How time has gone by!!

@@JaigEyes1207 truly special.
Who agrees with me that this should be the new Australian national anthem?
My first days arriving in Australia as an immigrant this was reigning on the charts. This will always be Australian music to me.

@@steveboy7302 thanks for answering a question no one asked.
Nice words Michelle. Heartfelt
Thanks 🇦🇺✌💫
Yet it doesn't change the fact very few blacks mixed with natives I think natives just weren't into blacks
It's about time we embraced these ppl and gave them our outmost respect.
Not blah blah political bullshit and fake promises.
Just real respect and acknowledgements for their rights.
That's all they asking for.........
Rest in Peace Yothu Yindi
Still pumping 2100
