Press Release from the CEO of FBC on October 05, 2020

As a gift to people of Fiji in the milestone 50th year of our independence, the FBC decided around five months ago to commission and help produce a song that could become a modern patriotic anthem for our young nation.

The tragedy of Covid-19 affected all Fijians especially our young and vulnerable. It was the impetus that the FBC needed to work hard at a song that would reflect the nation-building ethos of our organization at a time when Fijians needed comfort, empathy and hope the most.

The FBC team led by our Studio 69 Manager, Jone Nakasamai co-produced and put the initial touches to the song titled “Children of Fiji”.

The uplifting and patriotic lyrics in English, I’Taukei, Fiji-Hindi and the Rotuman languages imparts optimism in a year in which we have needed a heightened sense of national courage the most.

“Children of Fiji” is an all-encompassing emotional song that expresses the resilience of the Fijian people in any situation and celebrates our passion for things that binds us together as a modern united nation in the 50th year of our independence and beyond.

The FBC would like to sincerely acknowledge Phil Dakei of NOP music for producing “Children of  Fiji”.

We would also like to acknowledge the following voices from the Fijian music industry for contributing towards the success of this beautiful song.

VOCALS

  • Simi Rova

Happy Fiji day.
