Yo perdí a mi hermana en 1991 yo tenía 11 años y todavía me duele ella se ahogo en el mar y mis padres murieron en el 2012 el mismo año con 6 meses de diferencia 😢y duele mucho 😢
My best dog friend died on the 19th of November. He was my little heart and sole. Benji was a grey schnoodle who I have no idea how I’m going to continue on life without him. 16.5 years on earth isn’t enough and I hysterically cry every few hours over him, but this song has helped me try and get through it. So if anyone reads this. Please send the bestest boy all your prayers or condolences.
Hey, I am so sorry for your loss. When I think of my lost family members, I think of my best memories and funniest moments with them to turn the tears into laughter.
The only thing I can say about this man is he is in heaven singing to everyone when they die they hear him and his songs God bless this man I actually misses his music
This beautiful song moved me to the point of tears. Never give up guys. After every storm, no matter how much lightning strikes down upon us or how much thunder blinds our path, there will always be a rainbow in the end. There's strength within us, to overcome everything and everyone. There's strength within hope and dreams and don't let anybody tell you otherwise. You are worth so much and you were brought here for a reason, keep that in mind. You are valuable and you are cherished, you deserve your own rainbow. Everyone has a rainbow, you just have to be willing to see it.
Thanks. just--thanks.I lost my dog to bone/tissue cancer a week ago.A beagle named Maggie born on Valentine's day.Same bloodline as the one I had when I was 5 to 8.I will remember this.Thanks stranger.
When you see a perfect rainbow in the sky, know that Iz is up there happy and never has to feel pain again. He's singing for god and making heaven a better place for everyone up there.
Eulnglidis curbani Eu também ofereço essa linda melodia com essa linda canção com esse lindo cantor havaiano essa daqui Eu ofereço para o suga August dyoogy Isso é para você olhinhos puxadinhos pedrinha bruta ele é coreano atualmente atualmente ele está residindo na Coreia Lembre-se eu sempre te vejo mesmo estando longe não posso ter câmeras pois a câmera dos meus olhos te focaliza seja onde for através de Deus pelas menininhas dos olhos se chama íris pois esse também é um cromossomo a qual nós temos que ele identifica a imagem e a semelhança e os cromossomos memoriza quem é a pessoa como é a conduta a qual a pessoa toma cromossomos que nós temos no nosso corpo identifica a ação e a reação entre 1 e entre outro nossos cromossomos ele ele é um computador vivo é por isso que o homem até hoje não achou o cromossomos correto para achar a imagem do nosso Deus criador dos céus e da terra sendo que todos nós somos a imagem só que diferenciadas e nós somos milhares e milhões trilhões e a tecnologia é só uma
My daughter is in Honor Choir and this song popped up I feel in love and she did too,she always sings it every day but she’s in 6th now it gives me the vibes of her perfect voice it sounds likes a angel.Thank you god for this gift you gave her 🥹
Didn't even know this song existed! Just came across a post on Facebook which mentioned ,''In late 1988, late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole called sound studio at 3 pm and asked if he could come record because he had an idea. He was so polite that the studio owner said yes even though it was too late. 15 mins later he showed up, sang and played his ukulele and recorded -Over the rainbow- in just one take.'' I'm happy to discover this wonderful artist.
This song was just added to the National Recording Registry. 1 of 25 inducted this year. 900 songs were nominated. Quite an honor and now considered a "culturally, historic" song. Finally, some true recognition for IZ.
My dad used to listen to this song with me. Nowadays im on military service for my country as my dad did in his younger days... sometimes i listen to this masterpiece to clear my heart... I love you Dad , Happy Fathers Day
My son was born on this date 3 yrs ago. And it was storming the 3 days i was trying to have him. They had to make an emergency C section. The shots they gave me in my back didnt work so i was fully awake and suffered each slice and tug. This song played and finally with a bit of help with morphine they pulled him out and i glanced at him, hear his cries along with the song fade in the background while i pased out. Mins later after holding him i felt no pain and we fell asleep and when we woke up the sun was shining. This is the song i still sing to him.....happy birthday to my baby boy.
Darth Vader god you are SUCH a terd she just worked up the courage to tell you a personal story and you had to swoop in and be a BIG JERK GOD I HATE PEOPLE WHO DO THAT!!!!
Newyorkie, dont mind Darth he is just a sad dude cause he gets hurt by his son. fuck em. my sons story is true he is now 3 and a big boy. we love to watch old school movies in vcr. and i just hooked up my super nintendo cant wait to teach him the ropes. i still sing somewhere over the rainbow. although he shushes me.lol im a lousy singer. lol
This is how I wanna go. People cheering, laughing, having fun and remembering the good times and all the fun we shared. Not just a bunch of people dressed in black crying over some coffin. This is so much better.
Hawaiian singers have this incredible talent that feels like magic. First, there was Israel, and now there's Iam Tongi! When they sing, it's like they cast a spell on you. I just love them both!
This comes from the heart/place they are fortunate to have been born in, this regardless of where they exist. Beautiful, but aware of the erosive waves of dollars/time flowing in. A magical piece, sang by Garland with the deepest of understanding. He felt it, sang it. So many others songs or words not heard, but devastated by erosion. Wish all peace
Some people live their lives in obscurity wishing for recognition....some people live in obscurity, never seeking recognition, but do something so incredible that they change the lives around them and then the world changes and fame is thrust apon them....RIP.....You made my life better...thank you
Played this song at my grandmothers funeral, my grandmother actually has met Israel and talked to him personally. She loved this song. What a beautiful song.
August 2024 .. after saying goodbye to my pup who was 10 yrs old. She had to be put asleep due to Pancreas issues. ❤ missing her dearly and this song reminds me that we'll see each other on down the road to rainbow bridge someday. ❤❤❤
This innocence in his art ❤️ world needs such innocence ..where a person is considered good only when he is smart and considered dumb when u r innocent and truthful 💯
IZ was the best think that has ever happened to me. I grew up with this song and I still tear up when it plays. He recorded it in only one take. He went up to a producer who was traveling and asked if he could play for him because he has worked so hard on it. I'm still sad he passed away when I was young. Hopes he rests in peace in the islands with the others. He inspired me so much.
I literally can't listen to this without crying. Life is so difficult and dark, and I fall into this toughened mentality always when facing it... But then this song strips away that cold exterior and puts a mirror up to my soul and I break down into tears.
I don't know you or Dry Bones, but I hope things get better for you. Life is full of pain. Just as stated below, look up for you are loved by the Almighty.
This was the first song I played for my son in the womb and the first song I played for him when he was born. I'm play it every day for him. And we are listening to it right now he likes to fall asleep to it. He turns 2 on Monday. This song can tame wild beasts. Because no matter what mood he is in. Once he hears the first strums of the ukelele hes quiet and calm. Thank you Iz. You have saved many sleepless nights
@@eprep9745 Thank you very much. We are doing very well. He grows bigger every day. Very healthy and a very happy boy. Hope you and yours are doing great as well. Many blessings your way my friend
Someone from Pennsylvania who came upon this from Google Doodle. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ISRAEL! This is such a beautiful interpretation of Over the Rainbow! Your voice is so wonderful. Thank you!
I was sitting down scrolling I saw this video pop up, this was my dads favorite songs to play on his ukulele, and one of his favorite songs ever, he passed last year, I started crying and balling my eyes out when the video played because it reminded me of him, I miss him I can’t do it without him, i Iove you dad❤
This song was played at my friend's funeral, he died one and a half years ago when he was just 15 and it gets me through the day sometimes. I hope it does for other people too :)
A gentle giant with a dream to make a beautiful song to touch everyone's heart and to make us smile and be happy you will always be remembered iz rip ❤
Thanks for that mg grandfather was in marines I miss him so much 😭😭😭😭😭😢😢 I hardly did not get them chance to tell him how much he ment to before he passed away I wanted to tell him that he is nicest person around and tell him I'll how much he ment to me I was at school ween he died I did not anything I sayed
# The charm of the recording sound source, video and image, # solo singing, # the performance speed of the music is the highest. # With subtitles, # Realism, # Camera split cut split, great singer 🎤 The vibrato song was impressed with the intonation while extending the charming sweet voice of Israel for a long time. Also, the cut-off rib wheel frame 1:15 seconds 1:30 seconds 1:50 seconds and the composition of several original images and the transition of video editing are wonderful. I was surprised because it had lyrics subtitles. I was impressed with the progress. 👍🙌👍❤️ Thank you. 😊
It's 2022, let's see how many people are listening to this masterpiece. Thanks for this song... Es 2022, veamos cuántas personas están escuchando esta obra maestra. Gracias por esta canción...
I will never forget that most precious voice I heard when visiting Hawaii and I had to have the CD. To my sadness I learned he passed 😔 I have passed his music onto my children and grandchildren. I remember my granddaughter singing that song in her car seat when she was a toddler. Love you always IZ. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
well what would have been his 61st of course. Granted its not a typical birthday to celebrate but since he is the chosen candidate for the Pacific American Heritage month in 2020 push its just how it worked out, its not just some random choice to make it be about his 61st.
+Patrick Volpato It's cool to feel those feelings.Thats how you know you're still alive and resonating with the universes basis of love. Stay blessed my friend.
+Patrick Volpato I know how you feel. This song helped with depression before my father passed away. Then it was pain and sorrow for many long years. After 6 years of destroying who I was I finally woke up and closed the book of my father. I did it by finishing his will.Now I can write my own story again. And my family is able to do the same. I hope you can move on someday and write your own story with him as a chapter in it. Instead of the memory of his passing being a constant part of your story.
I cry to this song because it reminds me of my depression, but it helps me think of everything that ever happened to me. it feels like an honour to listen to this
My Great Aunt loved this song she passed a couple weeks ago and now she is with him above the rainbow😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 i miss you R.I.P. to both of you
Its surprising how many forget his motivation for the song. Was from knowing his people were dying, Hawaiian kids were committing suicide and the culture was excluding itself and the children of ot didn't want as much to pass on its culture. The song was both an ode to the sadness of what was happening and a song for uplifting someone's perspective that good is there among the evil.
I love love love iz music But I am having a hard te getting it on UTube Very frustrating as you cant find his wonderful music anyplace else Come on UT get him back.on
Happy birthday Iz! You’re song reminds me of my daughter Izzy. She was born a week after you passed. You’re version of over the rainbow has a special place in my heart. You’re song always lifts me up when I’m down. You’re deeply missed big guy!😢 I see you up there 👆
Woah, idk why but I have a theory that when someone dies their spirit goes into another person before they are born but they don't remember their previous life. So I think using my theory is that Israel's spirit could be your daughter's spirit, but this is all my theory so you don't need to believe it and there's no need to believe it
I feel the same way. I lost my teenage boyfriend. A raging alcoholic who was hit on the side of a snowy freeway. I miss him so much. I feel you. We were connected For
My grandfather Lee died June 4th, 2024 due to Parkinson's disease. He fought in Vietnam, quickly earning the title of seargent. He was injured by flying debris in battle, causing a piece of metal to get stuck in his knee. Over the course of time, the pain and suffering he went through, physically and mentally, began to worsen. He needed help with simple things, such as getting out of bed or taking a shower. My grandmother, even with all of the pressure, never left his side. Eventually, she, alongside my father and uncle, decided to send him to assisted living. During this time, he started to develop mild dementia, forcing us to put him under hospice care. He died around a week later. At his funeral, they played this gem of a song. As it continued, I started to weep. I just relearned about this song, and also found out about IZ's death. It was a perfect fit for his celebration of life. Thank you.
my dad gone on 10 Feb 2011, 5 days before this clip was published. he was moving often to Polynesia during his life. This song was in the funereal we did 2 days after. Tomorrow it will be 10 years he left us definitively, i'm 28 now, so 18 when is dead. what i can say now, never give up, do always your best every days, keep smiling and joy on your face, speak to others and don't keep bad feeling inside you, because at the end, you know you will always keep something sad into you, so useless to keep too much...life will give you enough other challenge to do...
I am with you, every time when i listen the music I dream my Goodbye be like this in the sea and remember me everytime when the rainbow appear in the sky.
Thsi song really helped me when I was suicidal and felt like there’s no use in living. It made me believe that eventually I’ll be happy again, and I needed to be patient. I will never hate this song Edit: thanks for all the supportive comments! Just to let you know I’m much better now
don't worry Willie, sometime maybe they dislike only because such a beautifull song remind to them some hard or difficult time.. for me its make feel happy..
Balling reminds me of my cousin we Lost two years ago at 21 to cystic fibrosis! This world doesn't make sense the most beautiful are taken way way too soon😥😢🙏🏻☮❤️
This is so unbelieveably adorable, meaningful and simple. Its beauty. This is the world we live in. Can you believe it? Its all here to see. Open our eyes and look around. Dont live in a box till you have too. Xx
Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high And the dreams that you dream of Once in a lullaby, oh Somewhere over the rainbow Bluebirds fly And the dreams that you dream of Dreams really do come true-ooh-ooh Someday I'll wish upon a star Wake up where the clouds are far behind me Where trouble melts like lemon drops High above the chimney tops that's where You'll find me, oh Somewhere over the rainbow Bluebirds fly And the dream that you dare to Oh why, oh why can't I? I Someday I'll 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 dream that you dare to Why, oh why can't I?

Às 3 da madrugada de 1988, o cantor havaiano Israel Kamakawiwo'ole ligou para um estúdio local e disse que precisava gravar algo, recebendo um prazo de 15 minutos para chegar. Israel pesava 226 kg e tiveram que rapidamente encontrar uma cadeira de aço para ele sentar. Então, em um único take, Kamakawiwo'ole gravou a versão icônica de "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" (Em algum Lugar Além do Arco-Íris), usando apenas a voz e o ukulele (pequeno instrumento de corda), que logo estaria entre as músicas mais tocadas e usadas como trilha sonora em todo o mundo. Mesmo após a sua morte em 1997, com apenas 38 anos, sua música e vida simples, mas inspiradora, continuaram a ressoar por todo o mundo. Um video simples, que mostra Israel tranquilamente dedilhando seu ukelele e cantando a música na beira da praia, já chegou à 1 bilhão e 200 milhões de visualizações no TH-cam. Descendente de nativos havaianos e nascido em Honolulu (Capital do Havaí, onde nasceu também Barack Obama), Israel nunca renegou ou esqueceu suas origens, sempre defendendo os direitos dos povos indígenas do Havaí
Google honors the Legend today on Google Doodle and it is #1 Trending, what a masterpiece .. One day hopefully we get to see Hawaii and chase a rainbow there .... prayers for the world to heal soon ..
I lost my father, my older brothers, my dad's parents, close friends, my moms recovering from a massive stroke and yet here I am. I often wonder why it is that, life takes away a lot of those who I cherish so dearly, but I am left to cling to those I still have? Life is hard but WE ARE HARDER!. Let's just love each other! This ain't for likes, this is for love ❤!
My Dad use to sing this song while we were driving down the road as a kid.... Man I sure Miss them times! And I miss my parents ! God there better be a Heaven I cant wait to get there! I miss my Parents so so very much! Life aint happy no more without them!
They are in heaven. There are three heavens. When the term "heaven" is not used symbolically in Scripture, it usually refers to one of three realms. (1) Our Immediate Atmosphere (2) Outer Space (The Sun, Moon, And Stars) (3) The Home Of God I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know - God knows (2 Corinthians 12:2).
If God put everyone into heaven, heaven will become as rotten and corrupt as earth. If there is a heaven, what hope do you have to go there? Don't you have something to hide also? Here's hope: "And so God loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him shall never perish, but have everlasting life" - John 3:16
The fact that he went into the studio and recorded this master piece in one try, says a lot R.I.P. I recently lost a brother from another mother and I have to say Hawaiian people have one of the most beautiful death ceremonies I've ever seen.
they played this song at my grandmas funeral and i love this song i keep listening to it so i can remember her and sometimes i cry when i hear this song :( R.I.P grandma
Rip iz, i heard about this song after you sad death, really a awsome song, heart touching. We will never forget you, we all know your somewhere over rainbow. Hope you understsnd what a good song artist you are.
Una noche de 1988, a las 3 de la madrugada, el cantante hawaiano Israel Kamakawiwo'ole llamó a un estudio local y dijo que tenía que grabar algo. Suplicó al ingeniero: "Por favor, ¿puedo entrar? Tengo una idea". Entonces, en una sola toma, Kamakawiwo'ole grabó la icónica versión de "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" que pronto conmovería a innumerables personas en todo el mundo. La grabación, con sólo la voz de Kamakawiwo'ole acompañada por el ukelele, pareció cautivar a todos los que la escucharon de una forma absolutamente inolvidable. Incluso después de la muerte de Kamakawiwo'ole en 1997, con sólo 38 años, su conmovedora música y su corta pero inspiradora vida siguieron teniendo un profundo efecto en personas de todo el mundo.
This song helped me when my daughter was in NICU for several months over 14 years ago. Amazingly, she was released home after major complications and surgery. She's such an old soul and one of a kind. This song kept me going, and It's absolutely beautiful 💗
Orlando United. This was a song played at a memorial tonight. Most appropriately because there was actually a rainbow shortly before the memorial started.
Actually a rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky
Iz didn’t die, he’s somewhere over the rainbow❤️ Rest easy Iz, thank you for this masterpiece.
😢😢
Amen
❤❤
Amenn❤❤❤❤

My brother died in April 2024 and this song is him all over he is dearly missed by his sister and four brothers
I lost my older brother in April 2024 as well.
So sorry for your losses. Wishing your families well.
I'm sorry, I lost my mom in 2004 when I was 19...it still hurts 🤕😢.

Excellent choice. Everything about this is purely uplifting. Rest peacefully.
Hey, I am so sorry for your loss. When I think of my lost family members, I think of my best memories and funniest moments with them to turn the tears into laughter.
Can we keep this song alive ? Any one here in 2024 ?
literally one of the biggest songs, especially in Hawaii. Its always gonna be alive along with Israel
Opa, sou do Brasil, essa música é muito boa!
🇧🇷
I do
With you in 2024! The section where they give his ashes to the sea is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
I love that a record engineer Milan Bertosa originally from Croatia, Istria made this magic happen. Pocivaj u Miru to you both ❤
The only thing I can say about this man is he is in heaven singing to everyone when they die they hear him and his songs God bless this man I actually misses his music
I'm grown woman and this song ALWAYS makes me cry....so beautiful

My pleasure. We may not know each other, but you are not alone, keep on fighting.
I can't post my own, not sure why. Just want to say a big Happy Birthday. Love this rendition, way better than the others.
My son died in a car accident almost 10 years ago. My son was a musician and really liked Iz's music. I cry for my son every time I hear Iz's songs.😢💔
Where ya from Pam?
When you see a perfect rainbow in the sky, know that Iz is up there happy and never has to feel pain again. He's singing for god and making heaven a better place for everyone up there.
Jonny Applesead i never her this man before... This was so beautiful I am crying....

TRUE🙏
I’m crying bruh....😭😭😭beautiful
That is very beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
There is something magical about the way IZ sings this that I keep coming back to listen every now and then.
It’s like songs like these help u stay grounded in life. We have so many distractions we forget to appreciate the simplicity in God’s creation

One of the greatest songs of the 20th century. Israel's version is incredible.
Fuck Israël
This is how I wanna go. People cheering, laughing, having fun and remembering the good times and all the fun we shared. Not just a bunch of people dressed in black crying over some coffin. This is so much better.
A are you alive
Bro what@@Soapmybestfriend
Hawaiian singers have this incredible talent that feels like magic. First, there was Israel, and now there's Iam Tongi! When they sing, it's like they cast a spell on you. I just love them both!
Copied
its a matter of love that knows its way.
Never celebrate individuals, always generalize them...
It is true of all Polynesian people, a musically gifted culture
This comes from the heart/place they are fortunate to have been born in, this regardless of where they exist. Beautiful, but aware of the erosive waves of dollars/time flowing in. A magical piece, sang by Garland with the deepest of understanding. He felt it, sang it. So many others songs or words not heard, but devastated by erosion. Wish all peace
Some people live their lives in obscurity wishing for recognition....some people live in obscurity, never seeking recognition, but do something so incredible that they change the lives around them and then the world changes and fame is thrust apon them....RIP.....You made my life better...thank you
He was such a kind hearted and spiritual man, this song is beautiful 🕊💕
Played this song at my grandmothers funeral, my grandmother actually has met Israel and talked to him personally. She loved this song. What a beautiful song.
Bryce Ausen your grandma was so lucky she met him in person I love this song it's a great song😄

August 2024 .. after saying goodbye to my pup who was 10 yrs old. She had to be put asleep due to Pancreas issues. ❤ missing her dearly and this song reminds me that we'll see each other on down the road to rainbow bridge someday. ❤❤❤
He isn’t dead😇 he is watching all of us over the rainbow 🌈 so go on everyday with love and care
🌈
Thx your comment means alot to me
Hes not dead, Hes somewhere over the rainbow in a place that deserves his music and him in general, This world now doesn’t deserve him.
True my friend. And it never did.
This innocence in his art ❤️ world needs such innocence ..where a person is considered good only when he is smart and considered dumb when u r innocent and truthful 💯
He is with his Lord and Saviour Jesus 🙏
So beautiful just makes you smile in had times
Excuse me, can u explain for me what have happened with him please :(((
IZ was the best think that has ever happened to me. I grew up with this song and I still tear up when it plays. He recorded it in only one take. He went up to a producer who was traveling and asked if he could play for him because he has worked so hard on it. I'm still sad he passed away when I was young. Hopes he rests in peace in the islands with the others. He inspired me so much.

God bless your beautiful soul, Iz. Your music helped calm my wife down when she had an anxiety attack. Thank you.
I literally can't listen to this without crying. Life is so difficult and dark, and I fall into this toughened mentality always when facing it... But then this song strips away that cold exterior and puts a mirror up to my soul and I break down into tears.
yes i listen to this because my grandpa died today
everything is gonna be okay, Just look up child :) You are so loved (John 3:16)
I don't know you or Dry Bones, but I hope things get better for you. Life is full of pain. Just as stated below, look up for you are loved by the Almighty.
wow! what you wrote is intense and real, as sad as it is, your post is still beautiful.
@@sheenabailey6934 Thank You, I Really Appreciate It. 🙂
*He's not dead, he's somewhere over the rainbow* ❤
Hola
єηєѕ Iz and Skippy gone BUT NOT FORGOTTEN!
true !!
100% Yes
He's over da rainbow with his loved ones😫😘🙏💖💗💖💗💖💗💖
This was the first song I played for my son in the womb and the first song I played for him when he was born. I'm play it every day for him. And we are listening to it right now he likes to fall asleep to it. He turns 2 on Monday. This song can tame wild beasts. Because no matter what mood he is in. Once he hears the first strums of the ukelele hes quiet and calm. Thank you Iz. You have saved many sleepless nights
This is so cute 🥺🥺🥺 hope you and your family are doing well, stranger
Love from the UK
@@eprep9745 Thank you very much. We are doing very well. He grows bigger every day. Very healthy and a very happy boy. Hope you and yours are doing great as well. Many blessings your way my friend
that's adorable 🥺 hope the best for you in life ♥️
My elementary teacher showed me this for music class in 3rd grade. Now I'm in 8th grade and remembering this very song
Someone from Pennsylvania who came upon this from Google Doodle. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ISRAEL! This is such a beautiful interpretation of Over the Rainbow! Your voice is so wonderful. Thank you!
Oh same, always nice to see someone else from PA. R.I.P Israel. He’s not dead,just resting peacefully somewhere over the rainbow

I was sitting down scrolling I saw this video pop up, this was my dads favorite songs to play on his ukulele, and one of his favorite songs ever, he passed last year, I started crying and balling my eyes out when the video played because it reminded me of him, I miss him I can’t do it without him, i Iove you dad❤
Dang sorry for your loss
This song was played at my friend's funeral, he died one and a half years ago when he was just 15 and it gets me through the day sometimes. I hope it does for other people too :)
Aww I bet y'all had the best memories

I'm so sorry
F
Sorry for your loss remember Everyone has a spirit over the rainbow you just have to believe to your heart to see it

Es bonita lo unico que se ocurre 😅
IZ has such a wonderfull voice everytime i hear this song it makes me smile
Yes..
# The charm of the recording sound source, video and image, # solo singing, # the performance speed of the music is the highest. # With subtitles, # Realism, # Camera split cut split, great singer 🎤 The vibrato song was impressed with the intonation while extending the charming sweet voice of Israel for a long time. Also, the cut-off rib wheel frame 1:15 seconds 1:30 seconds 1:50 seconds and the composition of several original images and the transition of video editing are wonderful. I was surprised because it had lyrics subtitles. I was impressed with the progress. 👍🙌👍❤️ Thank you. 😊
I didn’t know I needed this...until now
We all did
His voice feeds the soul.
Same
I love trump
I'm with you. This song makes my heart smile 🤗
Iz will always be somewhere over the rainbow, RIP Izzy❤
It's 2022, let's see how many people are listening to this masterpiece. Thanks for this song...
Es 2022, veamos cuántas personas están escuchando esta obra maestra. Gracias por esta canción...
I remembers this song from lazarbeam lol
Still here but I was just surfing the TH-cam music videos wow just WOW February-23/2022 at 3:32 pm
Gotta rewind it again again and again lol
In 2022, our only choice is to listen to this song, and breathe deeply
Its so amazing i listened/watched this video hundreds of times. I didn't know he died in '97. RIP
I will never forget that most precious voice I heard when visiting Hawaii and I had to have the CD. To my sadness I learned he passed 😔 I have passed his music onto my children and grandchildren. I remember my granddaughter singing that song in her car seat when she was a toddler. Love you always IZ. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
😥😥
Sencillamente impresionante !!!!
✡️✡️🐂🇪🇸🇪🇸
Damn 61?? His legacy will never die he stays a legend
well what would have been his 61st of course. Granted its not a typical birthday to celebrate but since he is the chosen candidate for the Pacific American Heritage month in 2020 push its just how it worked out, its not just some random choice to make it be about his 61st.
Its a Taurus thing. Born to be legends
R.I.P iz I legit cried when I realized he died😔 thank you sincerely for this masterpiece 😔
He didn’t die.. he’s just somewhere over the rainbow.❤
Rip❤
This made me cry a few years ago. It still does.
+Patrick Volpato It's cool to feel those feelings.Thats how you know you're still alive and resonating with the universes basis of love. Stay blessed my friend.
+Patrick Volpato I know how you feel. This song helped with depression before my father passed away. Then it was pain and sorrow for many long years. After 6 years of destroying who I was I finally woke up and closed the book of my father. I did it by finishing his will.Now I can write my own story again. And my family is able to do the same.
I hope you can move on someday and write your own story with him as a chapter in it. Instead of the memory of his passing being a constant part of your story.
I cry to this song because it reminds me of my depression, but it helps me think of everything that ever happened to me. it feels like an honour to listen to this
My Great Aunt loved this song she passed a couple weeks ago and now she is with him above the rainbow😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 i miss you R.I.P. to both of you
Yo Boi_ Mental I am so sry to hear that, I hope you feel better and she will Rest In Peace
Thanks for that :)
Np, man
😢😢😢
Ik wut you mean my best uncle passed away to,he loved this song😢😢😢😢😢
He was touched by god , god put this beautiful melody in his lips. So soothing. Yes I want this song played at my funeral over and over when I die
Mary Fitts me to!!
This is also my funeral song because I want friends to celebrate my life
@Zaedyn Paclib-Pablo Shut up
IZ wrote one of the most timeless, universal, most emotional songs ever made. There are no words to express our gratitude. We love you!
Happy birthday Brother IZ, we miss you, we'll see you over the rainbow, someday.
Its surprising how many forget his motivation for the song. Was from knowing his people were dying, Hawaiian kids were committing suicide and the culture was excluding itself and the children of ot didn't want as much to pass on its culture. The song was both an ode to the sadness of what was happening and a song for uplifting someone's perspective that good is there among the evil.
"You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29:13
Paradise? Sadness. Hawaiian people deserve so much more, so much was taken.
I love love love iz music
But I am having a hard te getting it on UTube
Very frustrating as you cant find his wonderful music anyplace else
Come on UT get him back.on
Happy birthday Iz! You’re song reminds me of my daughter Izzy. She was born a week after you passed. You’re version of over the rainbow has a special place in my heart. You’re song always lifts me up when I’m down. You’re deeply missed big guy!😢 I see you up there 👆
Rip your daughter
His daughter was born a week after IZ died his daughter is not dead
Woah, idk why but I have a theory that when someone dies their spirit goes into another person before they are born but they don't remember their previous life. So I think using my theory is that Israel's spirit could be your daughter's spirit, but this is all my theory so you don't need to believe it and there's no need to believe it
Happy birthday
I’m 74. This is the first time I’ve realized why my parents loved this type of music.
Just for anyone that didn't know, this was his first take of the song. He pulled it perfect first try.
Great man great voice. Will be missed.
nirvana did the whole MTV unplugged first try
+Nicholas Kirby it was "first try" because it was a live show later released as an album
+MLGBlockman III reminds me of Nas doing "NY state of mind" in just one take. Real artists are real.
Israel kamakawiwo'ole sings this song so beautifully and his version is hands down the best.
By far.
Did you copy and paste his name?
@Bryce Platzer - What's your point? Can't handle words with a lot of letters?
Israel did a great job, but I like the Louis Armstrong version better.
yup his version is the best
That was an so perfect people everytime when i hear this song i have to cry :c. Rip Israel Kamakawiwoʻole.
We all love you!
How did he die?
Ωϻἒgα ʗɦαɾĮʑαɨ right? I didnt know he died till now

My grandfather Lee died June 4th, 2024 due to Parkinson's disease. He fought in Vietnam, quickly earning the title of seargent. He was injured by flying debris in battle, causing a piece of metal to get stuck in his knee. Over the course of time, the pain and suffering he went through, physically and mentally, began to worsen. He needed help with simple things, such as getting out of bed or taking a shower. My grandmother, even with all of the pressure, never left his side. Eventually, she, alongside my father and uncle, decided to send him to assisted living. During this time, he started to develop mild dementia, forcing us to put him under hospice care. He died around a week later.
At his funeral, they played this gem of a song. As it continued, I started to weep. I just relearned about this song, and also found out about IZ's death. It was a perfect fit for his celebration of life.
Thank you.
Thank you to you and your grandmother
my dad gone on 10 Feb 2011, 5 days before this clip was published. he was moving often to Polynesia during his life.
This song was in the funereal we did 2 days after.
Tomorrow it will be 10 years he left us definitively,
i'm 28 now, so 18 when is dead. what i can say now,
never give up, do always your best every days, keep smiling and joy on your face, speak to others and don't keep bad feeling inside you, because at the end, you know you will always keep something sad into you, so useless to keep too much...life will give you enough other challenge to do...
Sorry for your loss my friend. Beautiful words so well spoken 😍😍😍😍👊🏼
My mother also chose this song to 'see her out' after her cremation. :(
this was your dad sorry for your loss much love to your family what an amazing singer love this song
My sister died and this cover was also played at her funeral around 2 years ago (I was only 10)
👏👏👏
Thats how all funerals should be, have a celebration and remember the persons and the good they did in this world, IZ was an awesome musician.
I am with you, every time when i listen the music I dream my Goodbye be like this in the sea and remember me everytime when the rainbow appear in the sky.
He's not dead
He's just somewhere over the rainbow :)
Kai YT ;)
YOU MADE IT EVEN WORSE
Almost cried when I saw your comment
Nice !!
Lol
When my aunt died my mom was singing this song for her. This was my aunt's favorite song!
Happy Birthday wish you were alive your songs changed the world and still do today
I'm sure he saves lives with his songs ☺
Thsi song really helped me when I was suicidal and felt like there’s no use in living. It made me believe that eventually I’ll be happy again, and I needed to be patient. I will never hate this song
Edit: thanks for all the supportive comments! Just to let you know I’m much better now
Hope you are feeling better now 😇
You're not alone, God bless you.
God gave us Iz and all of his beauty to help mend our broken hearts and souls.
One of my closest friends committed suicide. Inbox me for my email address. FaceTime me email me. Whatever, just don't commit suicide. ♥️
JLegend I’m so sorry that happened, I can’t imagine how horrible that must’ve been. But, I feel much better now and I’m happier than ever!!
How can 4,574 people dislike this song. It's so beautiful and sung by a beautiful man. RIP "IZ".
No worries Willie :) over 37 mill that have viewed and I'm sure appreciate his music..
don't worry Willie, sometime maybe they dislike only because such a beautifull song remind to them some hard or difficult time..
for me its make feel happy..
Ary Rosh Good point, I love the melody,
That’s how many assholes have listened, they always show up to 💩 on good things

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dream of
Once in a lullaby, oh
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dreams that you dream of
Dreams really do come true-ooh-ooh
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops that's where
You'll find me, oh
Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to
Oh why, oh why can't I? I
Someday I'll 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 dream that you dare to
Why, oh why can't I? I
Thanks Heavenly Father, for all your love. I AND MY Father Are 1 . JESUS CHRIST IS THE MIGHTY GOD 🙌
Às 3 da madrugada de 1988, o cantor havaiano Israel Kamakawiwo'ole ligou para um estúdio local e disse que precisava gravar algo, recebendo um prazo de 15 minutos para chegar. Israel pesava 226 kg e tiveram que rapidamente encontrar uma cadeira de aço para ele sentar. Então, em um único take, Kamakawiwo'ole gravou a versão icônica de "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" (Em algum Lugar Além do Arco-Íris), usando apenas a voz e o ukulele (pequeno instrumento de corda), que logo estaria entre as músicas mais tocadas e usadas como trilha sonora em todo o mundo. Mesmo após a sua morte em 1997, com apenas 38 anos, sua música e vida simples, mas inspiradora, continuaram a ressoar por todo o mundo. Um video simples, que mostra Israel tranquilamente dedilhando seu ukelele e cantando a música na beira da praia, já chegou à 1 bilhão e 200 milhões de visualizações no TH-cam. Descendente de nativos havaianos e nascido em Honolulu (Capital do Havaí, onde nasceu também Barack Obama), Israel nunca renegou ou esqueceu suas origens, sempre defendendo os direitos dos povos indígenas do Havaí
Bacana, vc saber a respeito da história desse moço. Ele canta muito, show de bola.
Legal - Mas ele apenas regravou … essa música é de 1939, de Harold Arlen . Não vejo ninguém falar isso 👍🏼
Uau que bom poder saber mais dessa lenda, obrigada!
Nossa que lindo me arrepiei toda
Muy bonita la canción y triste historia
We all need this song in the world right now.
We need before, now and after.
Yeah, dark times
so much love broo
that guy yes
Amen brother
Google honors the Legend today on Google Doodle and it is #1 Trending, what a masterpiece .. One day hopefully we get to see Hawaii and chase a rainbow there .... prayers for the world to heal soon ..
I lost my father, my older brothers, my dad's parents, close friends, my moms recovering from a massive stroke and yet here I am. I often wonder why it is that, life takes away a lot of those who I cherish so dearly, but I am left to cling to those I still have? Life is hard but WE ARE HARDER!. Let's just love each other! This ain't for likes, this is for love ❤!
My Dad use to sing this song while we were driving down the road as a kid.... Man I sure Miss them times! And I miss my parents ! God there better be a Heaven I cant wait to get there! I miss my Parents so so very much! Life aint happy no more without them!
Have hope , all will went ok 🙃
I'm sure they'll be waiting for you with open arms for when your time comes. Got to believe there's a heaven ❤️
True love and bonds, never die
They are in heaven. There are three heavens.
When the term "heaven" is not used symbolically in Scripture, it usually refers to one of three realms.
(1) Our Immediate Atmosphere
(2) Outer Space (The Sun, Moon, And Stars)
(3) The Home Of God
I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know - God knows (2 Corinthians 12:2).
If God put everyone into heaven, heaven will become as rotten and corrupt as earth. If there is a heaven, what hope do you have to go there? Don't you have something to hide also?
Here's hope: "And so God loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him shall never perish, but have everlasting life" - John 3:16
The fact that he went into the studio and recorded this master piece in one try, says a lot R.I.P. I recently lost a brother from another mother and I have to say Hawaiian people have one of the most beautiful death ceremonies I've ever seen.
who else thinks this song is like oh I don't know the BEST SONG IN THE WORLD😍❤
you should listen to outta my system by My morning straight jacket
but this is a really really really good song
+Fancy Goat what

Una noche de 1988, a las 3 de la madrugada, el cantante hawaiano Israel Kamakawiwo'ole llamó a un estudio local y dijo que tenía que grabar algo. Suplicó al ingeniero: "Por favor, ¿puedo entrar? Tengo una idea".
Entonces, en una sola toma, Kamakawiwo'ole grabó la icónica versión de "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" que pronto conmovería a innumerables personas en todo el mundo. La grabación, con sólo la voz de Kamakawiwo'ole acompañada por el ukelele, pareció cautivar a todos los que la escucharon de una forma absolutamente inolvidable.
Incluso después de la muerte de Kamakawiwo'ole en 1997, con sólo 38 años, su conmovedora música y su corta pero inspiradora vida siguieron teniendo un profundo efecto en personas de todo el mundo.
This song helped me when my daughter was in NICU for several months over 14 years ago. Amazingly, she was released home after major complications and surgery. She's such an old soul and one of a kind. This song kept me going, and It's absolutely beautiful 💗

Orlando United. This was a song played at a memorial tonight. Most appropriately because there was actually a rainbow shortly before the memorial started.
Did you know that a rainbow means that God will never flood the earth again!? :O *The more you know!*
Actually a rainbow is a meteorological phenomenon that is caused by reflection, refraction and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a spectrum of light appearing in the sky
