Megan Alatini (Java in The Tribe 4 & 5) performed the New Zealand national anthem “God Defend New Zealand” at the rugby Bledisloe Cup 2009 final in Tokyo, Japan, where the New Zealand All Blacks played against the Australian Wallabies.
The match took place on Friday October 31st 2009 (yesterday). Once again her singing must have done the job as the All Black’s won the match! Nice one! – She previously sang the anthem for the South African Springboks in the Tri-Nations final, they later went on to win also. She looks absolutely gorgeous in her black dress, very classy!
Sorry for the poor vid quality, one things for sure Megan is an awesome singer. With thanks to Mary for the info and TonyTai2009 for the video.
She is looking amazing!
First time i have heard her sing since hearing Tribe Spirit on the Tribe album.
I hope we get to hear more of her singing.
She is such a brilliant singer!!
Cant wait to hear more from her!
Her maori was also spot on!!
Megan sang that song great! Thanks for posting ;)
Who won the game?
Hey Ross, if you read the article it says ‘All Black’s won the match’… So… New Zealand won! :)
Love the video btw. She has been criticised by other because she didn’t sing it ‘traditionally’ but I like how she sang it here. Apparently the Japanese did not provide her with the backing music so she had to sing it acapella.
It just shows what a wonderful voice she has. Well done Megs
Yes Nz won!! which is good!!
