I actually uploaded the video just 1 or 2 days before the actual Kaamatan date, roughly around 2 weeks old. Between then and now it has reached 590 views. Based on the statistics, most of the viewers are from Malaysia (obviously).

Of course the numbers can never compare to some other profiles who even has million of views. But this is a video of mine that performs better than expected. Feel free to download the song in mp3 format for those of you who are here for the first time.

I hope the English Sumazau type song will help spread the message about us Sabahan’s that we are nice folks.. he he except for naughty politicians etc..

As mentioned yesterday, I have completed this song called “Bukan Milikku”. Just written with simple lyrics. Not really poetic and stuff. Here’s a short clip. To listen to the full version and download the song, go to my music demo blog at lifedemo.com. This song is inspired from a personal experience.

(Any hot ladies out there who wants to make a video clip? he he…)

Here I am still awake at 2:32pm. I find myself hard to sleep at night since then. So to compensate for my lack of sleep, why not write a song. A Kaamatan song! For those of you who are not familiar with that word, Kaamatan is basicaly the Harvest Festival Celebration in Sabah, Borneo.

“The Kaamatan Festival is an annual event in the cultural life of the Kadazandusuns of Sabah since time immemorial. In its deepest sense, Kaamatan festival is a manifestation of Creator and Creation relationship, as well as Inter-Creations relationship. It embodies the principal acts of invocation of divinities, appeasing, purification and restoration, re-union of benevolent spirits, and thanksgiving to the Source of All. It is part of a complex wholesome Momolian religious system centered on the paddy rites of passage and the life cycle of Bambarayon - the in-dwelling spirit of paddy.”

Unfortunately since my command of the Kadazandusun language is terrible beyond words, I made a Kaamatan song in English. This may even be the first in the history of Sabah, Kaamatan song in English! Anyway, for those of you who can translate the wordings for me, that will be great!

FYI this song is an acoustic version. The song file here is just a clip. Go to this link to listen to the full song and download if you want to. Just make sure you don’t sell it for profit. This song is entitled “This Is Kaamatan”

*Prefer audio visual? Check out the Youtube version*

Happy Kaamatan Everybody!!
