Tongan Music

Hulita by Foni Pole'o. One of my favorite Tongan Love song. I love to share Tongan Songs with everyone around the world.

FYI

Tonga a.ka. Kingdom of Tonga is a state and an archipelago in the South Pacific Ocean, comprising 176 islands scattered over 700,000 square kilometers (270,000 sq mi) of ocean in the South Pacific. Fifty-two of the islands are inhabited.
Tonga also became known as the Friendly Islands because of the friendly reception accorded to Captain James Cook on his first visit there in 1773. He happened to arrive at the time of the ʻinasi festival, the yearly donation of the first fruits to the Tuʻi Tonga, the islands' paramount chief, and received an invitation to the festivities. According to the writer William Mariner, in reality the chiefs had wanted to kill Cook during the gathering, but could not agree on a plan.
Tonga is also the only island nation in the region to have avoided formal colonization. In 2010, Tonga took a decisive step towards becoming a fully functioning constitutional monarchy after legislative reforms paved the way for its first ever fully representative elections which resulted in the election of Noble Sialeʻataongo Tuʻivakanō as its first democratically elected Prime Minister.
But to describe a true Tongan is by the way they love music.
