This song from the Maluku/Mollucas, birthplace of my mother, , an island chain in Indonesia. It's about "Hela Rotan", known to English-speakers as the game of Tug-of-War. In many Asian nations this game that would draw two communities together for a celebration centered on a peaceable but rowdy ritual contest. The athletes of a team were synchronized by their drummer, in whose hands rested the strategy of unifying the team's traction and power. The Tifa mentioned in the song is a drum still popular in Maluku and Papua. Maluku is a place of great cultural diversity. "Hela Rotan" is considered a parable. Because it takes two teams to have a contest, the tug-of-war celebrations symbolized that competition is also cooperation. Tug-of-war is still a popular sport for adults, with much excitement for regional and national championships throughout Asia. The rope is traditionally made out of "Rotan" (ROW-tahn), the vining palm from which woven furniture and other goods are made. The word rattan is from Malays "rotan". Although rattan is harvested in many places, it is still known in some places as "Malakka", from the name "Maluku", and a favorite species employed is Calamus rotang, the Rotan or rattan palm now grown in Burma and India. HELA ROTAN (traditional Indonesian folksong) Hela, hela rotan-e rotan-e [Pulling pulling rattan rattan] Tifa Jawa [Drum Java] Jawa-e ba bunyi [Java is the sound/noise] Rotan, rotan sudah putus [Rattan, rattan, already break] Sudah putus ujung dua [Already break end/tip two] Dua bakudapa-e [Two meet each other (shake hands)] (X2) Mangga mangga muda e manis e [Mango, mango young sweet] mangga mangga [Mango mango] Datang dari Nila [Come (brought in) from (Mount) Nila] Nona nona muka manis muka manis [Miss, Miss, face sweet face sweet] bikin Sinyo [Make mister (senhor)] Sinyo jadi gila-e [mister (senhor) so crazy] (X2)

Really nice cover of Soweto Gospel Choir’s version of the song. Good tone & pronunciation. The step needs to be more subtle & fluid-it’s more swiveling hips & shifting weight, less lifting knees & marching in place. Hand claps very crisp & visually interesting. Well done!

As a South African, I appreciate this, and it is really well done. It does however lack the goosebumps element that you get from homegrown choirs signing this piece. The African sun and thunderstorms, the passion that comes from a will to survive here (this originated as a labourer's song), working our backs off, but amidst the Ubuntu (humanity to others) amongst everyday South Africans : these are the ingredients that they couldn't add. Said in all love and respect ❤️🇿🇦

'Stru! I *must* agree with you, my fellow South African. When our people sing, it's as if they are drawing the spirit of the earth from the soil, into their feet, it carries through to the depths of the soul then bursts out into the atmosphere where it spreads joy/sadness in equal measure, wrapping everything around it in its embrace. It's incomparable. It's no different to the roar of a lion and where it eminates from. I came here from watching yet another performance by our Stellenbosch University Choir. Reading your comment reminded me of an article penned by Kgalema Motlanthe the first time he saw SUC perform live at a memorial event that he was the keynote speaker of. He was so moved by the experience as it showcased our Rainbow Nation in all its glory, pointing out that we Africans, across the colour spectrum, are born with this essence as we are all children of this soil. South Africans are truly a special breed. I love my people and our country, warts and all.

A girl had stepped out to the edge of the little platform attached to the automobile. She began to sing. Her clothes were unbelievable dirty and ragged, and she, too, was unwashed. Her ash-blond hair hung down in long skeins. ... But, best of all, she was beautiful, and in her untutored way, she could sing. She smiled as she sang, smiled rather sadly, and sang only a single line of a song.[2] John Jacob Niles

No. It's cultural appreciation. I'm South African and I am happy to see our music performed by people from the other side of the world. If they didn't put on their credit that it is a South African folk song and used it as their own, then it would be appropriation.
