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

[@thehaywood]

Sheena Lazarte it absolutely is like losing a friend or even a child 😔 my pooch son Bryan passed away January 17th, it’s left me utterly heartbroken

[@eventconsultant1]

This is why dogs never die: “Some of you, particularly those who think they have recently lost a dog to “death”, don’t really understand this. I’ve had no desire to explain, but I won’t be around forever and must for those out there to finally understand. Dogs never die. They don’t know how too. They get tired, very old and their bones hurt. Of course they don’t die. If they did they would not want to always go for a walk, even long after their old bones say “No, no not a good idea. Let’s not go for a walk.” Nope, dogs always want to go for a walk. They might get one step before their aging tendons collapse them into a heap on the floor but that’s what dogs do. They walk. You see, a walk with you is all there is. A walk with their best friend and the symphony of odor that the world is. Cat poop, another dog’s mark, a rotting chicken bone and you. That is what makes their world perfect and in a perfect world death as no place.  Dogs just get very, very sleepy. That is the thing you see. The don’t teach you that at the fancy university where they explain about quarks and economics. They know so much there that they forget that dogs never die. It is a shame really. Dogs have so much to offer and people just talk too much. When you think your dog has died, it has really just fallen asleep in the world and now lives in your heart. And by the way, it is wagging its tail madly, you see, and that is why your chest hurts so much and you cry all the time. Who would not cry with a happy dog wagging its tail in their chest? Ouch! Wap, wap, wap, wap, wap, that hurts. But they only wag because they are so happy to be so close to you. Whenever they wake up in your heart they wag their tail. After a few dog years, they sleep for longer periods of time and you will too. They were a GOOD DOG all their life and you both know it. It gets tiring being a good dog all the time, particularly when you get old and your bones hurt and you fall on your face and don’t want to go outside to pee when it is raining but they do because they are a good dog. So understand that after they have been sleeping in your heart, they will sleep longer and longer. But don’t get fooled. They are not “dead”. There is no such thing, really. They are sleeping in your heart and when they wake up, usually when you are not expecting it. It is just who they are. I feel sorry for people who don’t have dogs sleeping in their heart. They miss so much. Excuse me, I have to go cry now.”

[@charleneking1063]

This was my sister Jo’s favorite song of all time. She passed in the year 2000. Every time I hear this song, I know she is with me.

Thinking of those I’ve lost and gained. I finally feel like, after 4 years, I can say goodbye to my dog. He was everything to me and it ruined me when he passed away. He seemed like the last remnant of my innocence. Now that I have my first love, I am grateful for the opportunities that have arisen and I appreciate the ways I’ve grown from life’s sorrows.

[@user-sf3sq6oe1p]

❤😊🎉

[@yurkdawg]

I feel you...the *only* problem with dogs is that they do not live long enough. 🐶 I'm incomplete without a dog by my side. And while I know that the best way to get over such a loss is to bond with a new one (it is NOT going against your love and memory of the last one - each love is different, yet honors their memory) I know it is easier said than done. My closet bond in my life died about 1.5 years ago. And although I conceptually understand and know from experience that we should not let the pain of loss block us from new love, I am still putting off getting a new one. I'm happy to hear you are feeling better. While the pain of loss at the time may feel like it will never end, it does end. But on the other hand I believe that the love really does transcend time and even death. Cheers to your love and your memory...and to many more years of life and love in the future! 🥹🐶

[@delilah.25]

@@yurkdawg Thank you! I completely agree about dogs. I have so much trouble with anxiety about them dying and repetitively checking their breathing. It’s been hard to move on, but there are things that simplify the process. I too wish you many years of success and wellness. 🫶🏻

(I'm not trying to insult your trip, but I'm just saying that might have missed some of it. No hard feelings.) Overall, I'm so happy that you enjoyed our island, and I hope that you get understand the people of Hawai'i, and also, I hope that you can understand our culture more.
