This video of Tongi performing “Amazing Grace” with a young woman named Eta Lauti has resurfaced recently. It highlights not only Tongi’s talent but the young woman’s as well. It’s a simple video with Tongi and Lauti sitting on a bench, with Tongi playing guitar. The video also shows religious photos and scenes from films.
