Singing to take my mind off the pain but I couldn't remember the words - kinda distracted by the tap, tap, tapping and the fact that someone was chiseling ink into my thighs! My sisters (one playing the guitar and one filming) had just gotten theirs. My nana fans me and wonders what the heck we're singing... she doesn't remember this song from lotu!
Winner of the third annual Samoan Idol - Hawai'i and the inaugural World Samoan Idol competition. Local girl from Kalihi, only 16 years old, won it ALL! A well deserving winner!!
