Israel Kamawiwo'ole - Somewhere over the rainbow

[mothwing]

A friend (jaywalker23 ) showed me this version of Somwhere over the Rainbow back in the day, when we were still at school, and it's my favourite version of the song.

Well, it's everybody's favourite version, really.

For me, it's of course connected with memories of her as well, which makes it even better.

Ich liebe diese Version auch. Aber sie macht mich immer traurig, weil sie bei Emergency Room gespielt wurde, als Dr. Green an seinem Hirntumor stirbt...

Dr Green ist gestorben? Neiiiin! :( Das wußte ich gar nicht.

I'm still pretty partial to Judy Garland singing that song. Girl had an amazing voice (I attribute most of the reason why she was my first girl-crush to it).

Must check out. I don't think I actually remember it.

Oh!



There's definitely something to her voice, that's true. Lovely!
