Poi E hit the number one charts in 1984 and is still sung by many today — however this West Auckland neighbour is sick of listening to the hit song every morning.
A Kiwi has taken to Reddit to share a photo of a text message received from a "friend's friend" yesterday, revealing how their neighbour in Massey has had enough of waking up to the Patea Māori Club's song every morning for the past three months.

"Hi, [name censored]. Can you please change your alarm to any song that isn't Poi E?" the text began.
"Waking up yo a loud Maori lady screaming at 6am was OK for the first 3 months but it's getting kind of old."
