Hmm... I don't think that one is it, Kaiwaza (although, I haven't heard the version you mentioned, so I admit I could be mistaken).

From the original description my mind veered toward Tahitian, they have a good number of fast paced songs that are chant like. I checked through my mp3s of Nat Mara and Augie Goupil to see if I could find something. I came up with a couple that were close; "Papio", and "Manue," but I think it may be "Papoa" as it ends with what could be mistaken as "get away" sung a couple/few times.

I couldn't find any online examples of "Manue" or "Papoa" on YouTube, but the Augie Goupil versions of the songs can be found here (just type in 'Augie Goupil').

Hope that helps.

Bear
