seven years ago, i couldn't even imagine that i would do a lyric video about my favourite song and that it would achieve such popularity. through Israel's simple, yet incredibly powerful lyrics, his humbleness, kindness and sweetness serve as a token, an inspiration and a treasure for all of us. i hope you all have a wonderful day, thank you very much for the 10m views

When my daughter was born. I used to play this song almost every single night while I danced with her in my arms. Now she’s 12 years old and really doesn’t have time for me. I got a lump in my throat just now listening to this song and remembering how little she was. Our time with our kids is short.. cherish every second of it before it’s gone.

As a teenager, it's really weird to think how distant we can get to our parents, family and peers. It's crazy how sometimes the people we used to run to whenever we got hurt, our first loves, can become nothing but trouble. If you have a good relationship with your daughter, and you sound like you do, you're lucky enough. I know it can still be sad that someone you love more than yourself doesn't have time for you, but that's just how it goes. It's better to be happy for what you have than unhappy for what you don't have. Wish you and your daughter the best : )

They played this at my dad's funeral 5 years ago. I was 13 at the time, so I was handling it quite poorly. At that time I disliked that they claimed it as my dad's favorite song because it wasn't his favorite song. His favorite song was Let It Be by The Beatles. Now that I'm a little older, I understand why they chose to play this song. It fits his personality. He was a man who struggled badly and lost a lot.. but he always hoped for a brighter future. Now he's somewhere over the rainbow, and all his problems are behind him. May he rest in peace.

One other thing, keep pushing yourself forward, and if you get knocked down, pick yourself up, and brush off the dirt and keep going. You can do anything you want, and knowing that there are young people like you, gives me comfort in our future.

Milan said, “Then I put up some microphones, do a quick sound check, roll tape, and the first thing he does is Somewhere Over the Rainbow. He played and sang, one take, and it was over.”

There once was a young girl in the midst of second grade. The girl suffered through neglect and starvation. One fateful day, a terrible injury happened, blood dribbling out of her skull. Her second grade teacher, who knew her student who helped her with organizing and putting every item up and away in its correct spot in her classroom was endangered. She decided to help take care of her for a month until she was feeling better. Every car ride this same song played, as well as the original played. The cotton candy lollipops, the smiles shared, the evening foot soaks, every day spent with each other spent in happiness and peace. Everytime this song played the girl hula danced. A smile shared across the room, turning into a blossom of laughter and a passionate inspiration to be kind and help others in need lasted for life This is my story

Her parents put this song on our last goodbye with her… we just spoke the day before. Life is so sad sometimes. Maybe our loved ones are somewhere happy. I hope she’s flying gracefully where ever she is my god I still miss her

I've never heard this song until today. It's truly a master piece this man had some great potential and very great talent. There's not to many people out there that have a voice like his it was truly one of a kind. It's hard to think that he had to go so young. But this song is truly touching to the heart to me and I know he's still listening somewhere over the rainbow.

When me and my mom listen to this song, she always tells me the story of how when she was a kid she always wanted to chase the rainbow just to see what was on the other side of it, and she always breaks my heart when at the end of the story she tells me that when she die, she will finally see what is on the end of the rainbow. So now I can't hear this song without crying...

Happy story: My baby daughter was fussing while with her grandparents, so her grandpa played this song to try and calm her. She quieted down, grabbed onto his phone, and ended up falling asleep in his arms. We came home to him rocking her as the music continued to play. My heart absolutely melted at the sight.

My senior year has been tough cause I lost my oldest cat. When I turned to my friends and people I needed for comfort I was turned away. I only had myself to comfort and it was just a depressive time for me. I hear this song and I tell myself everything will get better. I am still trying to heal from the hole in my heart now that I just graduated. I miss my boy max everyday. He’s been with me through every milestone I’ve had I just hoped he was there to see my graduate..

My sister passed feb 2021. Ive never been the same. It changed me in ways i never knew were possible. Mostly for the good. It taught me how fragile life is and when its ur time God will call u home. This song reminds me of her last moments where she knew where she was headed. I can picture her walking into heaven to this song. I miss you sister. Until we meet again. I love you. ❤️

He's the only one able to give confort to everyone who needs it with just a song He's like the bestfriend who is always checking on you, like the mom watching you grow up silently, like the dad so proud of who you've become... I've been listening to this song regularly for years, and everytime my heart is filled with pure love and kindness, and I feel better after. The cute part is that my bf also listened to this song before we met, so it's a little bit of "our" song (that's why our relationship is so soft maybe)

This makes me forget the problems in the world today

I can't believe I didn't find this sooner! I sang this song as my first solo in choir, for the first time my mom was proud of me I saw tears well up in her eyes and my grandpa was so happy to hear me sing. At his funeral i heard this song play and I got to sing for him one last time. I'm so happy I found this. I miss him dearly and I feel a connection to him when I hear this. 😭😭😭

This simple song with only one musical instrument, with a warm and purple voice like the southern seas, full of pain but also full of optimism, seems to have been sung by an Angel! It seems that the whole world needs more love!

Rae Harris your kids will remember it and love the song as they grow up and remember their childhood my dad sang this song to me and my sister when we were very young still remember it brings back good memories

Ever since I was a child and feeling sad especially on my worst days especially growing as an adult, I cry and listen to this song every time. And every time it’s a reminder to not give up the rain is pouring but the rainbow is there after the storm.

I remember when I was in nursery, my class and I had to sing this song to the whole entire school - even though none of us even knew the lyrics , so we just danced even though we weren't supposed to. But when my year 6 chapter was coming to the end.. On the last day we sang this song to this school, with the projector behind us playing that one time we sang that song when we were 7-8 years younger. Looking at the projector during our rehearsals made me realise that so many people had left and there were a lot more new students anyways- Our nursery teachers and our teachers who were previously teaching us were literally crying and so was everybody else in my year group. That was 5 years ago, now I have just finished my GCSES and I'm waiting for my results to come back.. Listening to this brings back so many nostalgic memories. Thank you for this song Israel Kamakawiwo'ole..

Forget "Hallelujah" Forget "Tears in Heaven" This is the true song that breaks me everytime I hear it.

I knew the song earlier but did not listen this much until I gave birth to my son. With the lyrics I can listen and sing it to my son nearly everynight. Thank you. It has a strong meaning in my life because the day my son was born, the cancer result of my dad arrived and he passed away after 30 days. The song made me strong for my son and I could stand next to my mum. What a wonderful world and somewhere over the rainbow I will meet you dad. R.I.P. my best friend ❤

Grandpa always smiled. Now he's smiling over the rainbow The rainbow is he's smiling to me. The rainbow are the days with him. Beatiful but now far, far away. Granpa I miss you.

They played this song on my Nephew's funeral and the whole place just broke down in tears. He was just 18yrs old and at the time couldn't understand why him? But everytime I listen to this masterpiece brings me some type of peace knowing that our Angel is watching over us.

Very few will see this so I’m just gonna pour my heart out about this song. This song has such a level of comfort that I cannot find anywhere else. From the soft voice to the catchy and ukulele tune. I wish I was old enough to be around while he was so I could have gone to a concert of his. This song has partially given me the ability of accepting the loss of loved ones by helping me believe that they’re really happy where they are now. From losing my best friend from being struck by a train down to the loss of my pet, this man made it so much easier to heal from the grief and mourning that has happened in the past. Thank you for what you have given us, Israel 🙏🏼

About three weeks ago...I lost my best friend of over 45 years...I can't understand it at all...I love God with all my heart and soul...but I'm not about to ask God why.. My two favorite songs are those that this Wonderful man just sang...3 weeks ago...at his Funeral.. This song is locked now... forever in my mind...one day I surely want to be there in Heaven..and Hug my Best friend a a special hug to a Great singer.IZ !!!!

Today i got some news that truly shattered my core. I bend in pain after not feeling that for long. I absolutely love music. & i came here to remind myself that there is still things that make you feel magical. This song will forever be one of them. I am alive today because of that feeling, thank you.

My teacher played Louis Armstrong's Somewhere Over the Rainbow for the exit music for our first grade play. We all loved it and were touched by it even as children. A year later, they played it at my grandpa's funeral. It was the perfect song to summarize his love for life and people. My dad and I danced to Israel's version at my wedding. I can't listen to either version without crying.

This is the song I want for my funeral.

Just got back from a trip to Hawaii, and I hooked my phone up to the rental car and all of a sudden the first song it played when we drove into Honolulu was this!

There is so much soul in this song. Evertime when I listened to this after a long gap in time, It got me in tears. There is something about the song which is breaks our hearts that the world could have been much better than this if we only learned how to love everyone without reservations another vibe that I got from the song is that it is telling us that all the troubles we face will be gone one day when we leave this world.

Hugs, mama. ❤ One of my fosters, I had for 3 years (from birth) before cps transferred him to an unsafe family member. I fought for him & won. He is now 9 & shares my last name. I haven't fostered since.

It’s like he sang this song for each and every person on the planet it feels so perfect. My perception is Like my big brother singing me to sleep. I can just feel all his love in his voice

This was the wedding song for my Uncle. He passed away last summer. This song makes me cry. At his memorial next I plan to sing this song while my sister intends to play the ukulele. And I know I will cry, but that's okay.
