Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole's Platinum selling hit "Over the Rainbow" OFFICIAL video. Loved all through the world, IZ's version of "Over the Rainbow" has touched millions.

With each passing year, IZ’s presence in the music industry and the sales of his recordings continue to grow despite the trends that surround the industry. An amazing story about an amazing man, the man referred to by some as the “Hawaiian Suppaman”. While IZ has always been revered in Hawai‘i, his worldwide influence came later. IZ’s music first gained national attention in the mid 1990’s. Produced by Jon de Mello for The Mountain Apple Company • HAWAI`I

Lyrics:

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true
Someday, I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I?
Well, I see trees of green and red roses too
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well, I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
And also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands saying
How do you do?
They're really saying I, I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow
They'll learn much more then we'll know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
World
Someday I wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dare to
Why oh, why can't I?
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

SomeWhere Over The Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole

유명한 뮤지컬 오즈의 마법사에도 나온 이노래
우리들 귀에는 너무나도 익숙한 노래겠지만 가수는 그렇지 않을 겁니다.

전 세계적으로도 유명하고 국내에서는 더욱더 유명한 노래 Somewhere Over The Rainbow라는 노래입니다.

188cm의 큰 키에 몸무게가 무려 340kg이나 되는 거구의 몸을 가진 이 가수는, 물만 먹어도 살이 찌게 되는병에 걸립니다.

이 가수는 하와이의 전설적인 가수이자 독립운동가로서 자신이 태어난 땅 하와이를 너무나도 사랑해서 그 원주민들은 그를 가리켜 브라다 이즈(Bruddah Iz)라고 불렀습니다.

거구의 몸으로 하와이의 전통악기인 우쿨렐레를 연주하는 모습은 참 귀엽게만 보입니다.

이 노래는 1993발매된 그의 데뷔 앨범에 속하는 작품입니다.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow와 What a Wonderful World가 '구스 반 산트'라는 감독의 영화

"파인딩 포레스터"에 삽입되므로 점점 유명세를 떨치게 됩니다.

그렇게 많은 사람들의 사랑을 받게 된 곡이지요.

위의 뮤직비디오에서 사람들이 환호하는 모습을 볼 수 있을 겁니다.

그 모습은 아이러니하게도 이 가수의 장례식입니다.

평생을 체중 과다로 힘들게 인생을 살면서 고생했기 때문에 이제는 편안한 곳으로 갔음을 축하하는 의미에서 사람들의 환호가 이어졌다고 합니다. 긍정적인 하와이 원주민들의 생활자세가 돋보이네요
