Played this at my son's funeral, July 19th 2020. Joshua was 30 yrs, 11months and two meeks old. Today is my birthday and I'm so sad, my heart shattered that day...this is one of the firsts I've been dreading.. Can't stop living , but don't know how to really ..live without him. Need a miracle ❣ I love you joshie. stay beautiful.
I lost someone I loved very much and it reshapes your life. I hope you find peace. It may or may not be your thing, but look up the author Stafford Betty. It might bring you some comfort.
@Kristin Kai Caldwell, my heart hurts for you! May God bless, comfort & strengthen you! & may you feel your precious Joshua's presence & love readily. His spirit is still around you & he's your angel. 😇 I hope you KNOW this & trust the signs of him. They're real. God bless you.
So sorry for your loss. I can speak from experience that the pain never, EVER goes away. You just have to find ways to manage it. It seems a song, an aroma, a scene from a tv show or even certain colors remind you of your son. Just keep living one day at a time and be thankful for the time you had here on Earth with him.
My daughter and I came to Maui because we heard IZ sing this song. It drew us to Hawaii. My daughter died 7 months ago of cancer. She was placed in the Pacific Ocean. Thank you IZ for bringing us here!
I lost my grandfather to cancer 2 months ago. He was an old hardass to the core but i still cry like a kid when i think about about how mucj i miss him. I still remember, very vividly the dream i had, not a few weeks after he died where i walked into his house, knowing full well hed already died, and i saw him sitting on his bed. I immediately broke into tears, in my dream, and told him how much i love him and how sorry i was that i wasnt a better grandson. He got upset and said, "aw shit, man. This is exactly what i didnt want". But i cant help myself. I miss him terribly and always will. I woke up from that dream, crying.
@@nommy210 I lost my dad as a kid 9 years old, he was a fireman and died in a fire and I would dream he walked in the house and I was like dad where have you been and he would just hold me. God bless you all and to everyone over the rainbow.. Time heals..
Where have I been, I am 64 and just hearing this young man's music. I cry everytime I am blown away, I play his music daily and I was sadden when I realized he passed. Well young man you are awesome and I am sorry you had to leave us so early...blessings to his family and I am so sorry, his talent is beyond measure...❤🙏😊🌈🌺🌼
I am listening this today and every time, it makes me emotional. Good life and good vibes to who read this and your families. We need positive vibes, always. God bless you all.
I am 6 months pregnant and I play/ sing this to my daughter almost every night. I feel her kick every time. I can’t wait to continue to play this beautiful song to her after she’s born🥲🥰💓
My wife died in May and a very close friend played this at her memorial celebration. What a wonderful tribute it was. Sally dreamed that Patti wanted her to play another song then the one she had picked. As she was driving that day she heard this four times. So she played it! The day she died, four different places all over the States, people told me that they saw rainbows and one double one. Thank you....
I think its quite special (and beautiful) that based on all the comments, this song is played at both weddings and funerals, memorials, and as a lullaby to newborn babies and those at the end of life.
Played at my granddaughter’s funeral. A little white coffin. It took me a long time to listen to this song. Now, now I listen and smile. I just know Chloe would be smiling too.
Thank you Israel, for all these years, my wife who is Pacific Islander, told me today that I live a life in the the spirit of Ohana. And I thought of this song, tears in my eyes. Thank you, my mother sang this song to me when we were on food stamps and starving when we had to hide from terrible people. So much hope, so much love. Thank you IZ. Everyday.
My mother played this song at my elder brother's funeral 2007. It will forever be a reminder of him. 18yrs gone but never forgotten. He passed 2 days after Xmas leaving 4 children behind and many loved ones. His children are all grown adults now living life like they should. Love you forever Levi. I will see you over the rainbow some day. RIP.
Wonderful ?!?!?! World God will be raised from the rainbow with His healing Hands to cover and overwhelm the civid 19 pendamic that the world facing :!??????cured us God
I played this song at my son's funeral 10 years ago. I go to Maui to visit him every a year and know that his spirit lives there ...behind every rainbow
Kristin " .behind every rainbow" there is a pot of gold" ... that being your son. I am so sorry for your loss and I do not envy your pain. Stay safe in your memories.
I am sitting here with my old teammate and friend for the last 53 years and he is fading away with brain cancer. This was one of his requests to have this song played at his funeral. It is so very hard to watch anyone die, especially when they are a close friend.
May you and your love spend his last hours in a cloud of love and peace. Take the best, loving, and happy hours with you into the coming days and tears.
Ohhh, I am so sorry. May your heart find comfort in him being out of pain and struggle, your memories and the thought of seeing him again over the rainbow. 💔
I lost my wife of 44 years last year, she spent 27 days in the hospital. at the end she was pretty much unconscious but I would put my phone by her ear and play this song and some times get a little smile out of her.
Blessed be you, and blessed be she. This song was playing as my granddaughter was entering this world not so long ago. Merry meet, merry part, and merry meet again.
This is the only song that mist people know by Braddah Iz. I lived on Hawaii for 22 years and he was the most beloved musician. His songs of Hawaii are beautiful and some are heart breaking. His angelic voice has so much emotion. RIP, braddah.
I can only say that I would love to have met Iz and shake his hand. I am a Disabled Army Vet from Texas and I have a life ending medical issue, I listen to this song and also “What a wonderful World” by Louie Armstrong and my day gets bright again !! Two men that God gave healing power through their voices !! Thank You Gentleman, I’ll be meeting y’all soon !
this version of the song really touching, peaceful and to me is beyond explenation , RIP IZ, Thank you for sharing your gift that we all can enjoy forever.
+kittyleigh007 somewhere over the rainbow was in the original movie the wizard of oz in 1939 and the second song what a wonderful world was done by many artists too but i believe Louis Armstrong was the original. well it was originally performed by him anyhow ...i love Louis Armstrongs version best but as far as over the rainbow this guy Israel K kills it. love this version.
+Jane Eccles Payne, I LOVE Louis Armstrong's version of It's A Wonderful World, but the blending of the two songs just makes this so - I don't know - sweet and pure? It's beautiful.
This is the last song my father sang before he passed away from Leukemia. His last wishes were to have his ashes spread in Hawaii. I am planning his last wishes listening to this beautiful song. For those that lost loved ones, my heart goes out to you. Big Bear Hugs coming your way.
28 minutes til 2022, listening to this to get a feeling of peace, of hope. To be reassured of the goodness in the human heart. If there's an elevator that takes you to heaven this is what's playing in it!!
I would believe that since this particular Hawai'ian's music has been a big part of my own journey all these many years. Hawai'ian is all I seem to want to hear lately. Nearing 50 years in Puna/Kauai. Saw him in Hilo early 70s w/ Makaha Sons Of Ni'ihau. Dear God. From here on out as we approach apocalypse together, while I can still have the blessing of music, it's blues or Hawai'ian. PERIOD!
in the new disney movie, "moana" there will be a volcano based on him. Like, a living volcano. There is a male and a female one based on him and his wife.
same. im pregnant and i put the phone on my belly for my baby to listen to music and now i just wanna cry everytime i listen to this song because we both love this song and this man :(
I played this for my first grandchild the first time I held her in my arms. She has heard it almost every day I see her. As soon as she hears his voice, she smiles, says "Izzy", kisses the screen and says "love you". She is 1 and a half years old. Another generation loves Izzy!!!
thats True he cant even know how many People see this song like it is because his big success came just after he died He might be at a better place right now. ♡☆
He is not dead he is somewhere over the rainbow 🌈❤️ This man was not fat he was just full of love Still listening to this in 2020. Great voice. Who else agrees
Played this at my momma's funeral when she passed unexpectedly at 43. I cant believe it's already been 14 years. I love you and try to live in you light every day mom. I hope you're looking down over me and I am making you proud and you get to see your grandkids grow. Tell daddy hi for me too xo
Complete Nomadness If you came to that conclusion your doing just fine regardless of the mistakes you made or will make with time. Your gonna be fine bud! :)
Jacqueline Bourg Get out of here with your fanatic behaviour. There is no such thing as 1 good religion. When will you sheeps realise there is a HUGE difference between faith and religion? As long as you have faith it doesent matter which child raping money collecting priests you pray with.
USS Miller cumstruction crew tribute, le diff being they dont fk around at le crematorium & hope u boy's have those will's fillout currectlee & a Supercarrier that run's on clean green hydrogen rather than Uranium\plutonium. Legend?
I had a teacher years ago who told me that I could be anything I wanted to be. Years later, I want to be like Brudda Iz. A true love for the islands and his people. The world needs more of that. Be well folks, and Godspeed Brudda. You left some big shoes to fill.
Let’s just love each other and fuck all the other bs racism is gone to me and equality is already there! Now it’s more or less groups of people Everyone really wants to have it there way and only there way well guess what!?!? Life ain’t Burger King!!!
I am so sorry for your loss. Nothing can heal the pain of losing a child. I hope music brings you peace of mind and happiness. She's in every star and in the light of the moon. Blessed be....
Essa música foi instruída por anjos celestiais. Não há como não tocar em nós,de forma sutil,leve e consciente. Nos leva a uma dimensão maior. Acalma, aquieta os pensamentos. Leva a um estado de relaxamento e controle de nossos pensamentos e emoções. Gratidão aos céus ,por este presente lindo, a humanidade.
Es el lugar donde aveces e querido estar pero también el lugar donde Iz es hermoso e inspirador además el problema que el tenía glandular seguramente le trajo muchas tristezas las cuales le permiten hacer la mejor versión de esta canción . Que son los deseos de paz de una persona cualquiera 😉
I have no count as to how many times I have heard his smooth voice in this song. OMG. What a man. He seemed to be a person bringing back faith in humanity. May he rest forever in peace.
Sawyer Fredericks does a very beautiful version of this song, and his vocals have a beautiful tone. I have both on my playlist and like you never get tired of this version. Hope IZ is someones muse.
I and my family lost my dad acouple of weeks ago, this was played at the start of his funeral, I've seen a rainbow 3 times since, it's been a great thing of thing of comfort, thanks Israel, Dad, Husband and Grandad xx
My dear husband passed away on July 9, 2023. Right before he passed he said he heard this song and it relaxed him. He said he knew now why I loved the song. He passed away a day and half after telling me this. This was the only song I played at his funeral. 😭 We were together almost 35 years and had 7 Children.
This was the song we played at my Mom's memorial service. She and my dad had been married 11 days short of their 65th wedding anniversary. My dad only lasted 10 months after her passing. H simply could not go on without her, and died of a broken heart.
You can be nostalgic, sad, depressed, but just listen to this song for your spirit to feel full and relaxed again, love, love and love this song forever!
Lost my college teammate who was from the big island, listen to this with my son who I named him after. Hope the view is good up there Kawika, love you brotha 🤙
Used to play this to my tummy whilst pregnant with my son, played it to him everyday since he was born and now he stops in his tracks and lays still listening until it is over. ❤
I Love Your People , Land , Culture and Spirit . It was a dream come true visiting and Surfing there . IZ lives in my Heart Flame . Thanks for Being here with Us All Uncle .
My son introduced me to this artist...this was the opening song at his memorial service after he died suddenly on May 8, 2017 at age 34. I play it multiple times throughout the year in his memory...always brings a smile to my face ( and a tear to my eye)
I'm glad it can still bring a smile to your face, I can't image how difficult it must've been at the time - to suddenly lose a loved one. I hope the passage of time and beautiful music continue to bring you comfort.
Im reading comments of people saying they're still listening to this song in 2023. This song is not one that will ever be forgotten and will be played year around. Listened to this song a few days ago and it made smile and cry. Smile because it takes me back to the islands while im fighting traffic or just having a bad day. Crying because this song just does that to you. Its just a beautiful song sang by a beautiful soul. Have a beautiful day everyone 🥰🥰
I love this song because it makes me think of heaven which is located somewhere over the rainbow. When Jesus returns and takes me to heaven (which could happen any day now, considering how crazy this world is) then my troubles really will all melt away like lemon drops. God bless everyone reading this message. And if you don’t know Jesus Christ as your Savior yet, do not delay any longer. John 3:16 is the simplicity of salvation. The key word is believe! Hope to see you all one day soon somewhere over the rainbow. 🌈
Man, I didn't know the singer but, ever since I heard his rendition of "Over the rainbow" a couple years back, I was over the rainbow and overjoyed. Rest peacefully Braddah. Thank you for your inspirational music! 🤟🙏🏼❤
@@raymcintire3306 es cierto ya le eh escuchado más de 10 veces y de verdad que no ay palabras para describir lo maravilloso que ase sentir en la mente y en el corazón 😊😊
Listening to this I realise how much sadder the world now is without this wonderful talented man. I'm not ashamed of my tears. God bless man, we miss you so much.
The most beautiful remix of an old classic, first heard during the credits to the movie Joe Black. Was my wife's favourite and played it a her memorial last Thursday. Thank you IZ, yours and their memories will never die, along with this version.
Essa música com essa voz maravilhosa...me faz levitar como se estivesse sem problemas...sem tristeza dentro do meu coração...me faz feliz...amo esse cantor...que agora está perto do pai celestial...❤❤
I just love this song.. its a calming song with a message of hope. Unbelievable to me that it would have any thumbs down.. I guess that's the world we live in with some people always trying to add negativity. Stay positive world!
dont worry pal.... there is always possitivity.... because there is some negativity How we could even know , how possitivity feels... without sense any negativity..... These negativity are here just to increse the pleasure of possitivity.... Stay safe and stay happy... life is short...
Also, I think sometimes a thumb down on a post like this could mean the person is sad that IZ is gone (like they don’t want to be saying it is good that he is gone - that sort of thing) ... know what I mean?
I listen to this over and over. What a wonderful talented person! Breaks my heart that he's gone...so young! What happiness he spread! Thank you! You r singing with God now What a gift!
Love love love this song. This was played at my daddy’s celebration of life. It took me 13 years before I can listen to it without crying my eyes out. Absolutely beautiful.
Well it's been 12 years since I played this at my Mom's service and I could use a couple tissues right now 🌹🙄💞 All is well. WE all miss YOU all and send boundless love to YOU. 💙💜💚❤💛
I’m glad I’m not the only one. My dear cousin/brother recently passed away and I come here for some music therapy and end up crying every time. Damm I miss my cousin so much
I get tears in my eyes every time I hear it. It's the first song I added, to my list of songs, to play at my funeral. I see many comments here of others with the same idea. May God grant blessings, peace, and grace to you all.
Midget Elvis wow, way to open that mouth and said something VERY nice, hey, why won't you join along with Old McDonald Trump and his farm of Racist Animals? He ALWAYS needs a mouth like yours. #Respect
Hay personas que viven 100 años y no dejan nada en esta vida pero este joven vivio muy poco pero dejo una musica preciosa una huella inmensa que jamás podrá ser borrada .gracias por tu musica y descansas en tus aguas celestes como el mismo cielo querido
Hermano Dijiste toda la verdad. Israel nunca puede ser olvidado. Soy de Brasil. Amo tanto esta canción. Con tu dulce voz. Una gran cantante. Una hermosa y maravillosa voz de ángel.
@@viniciusaugusto1150 This World was never meant for someone as wonderful as I.Z. He came into our lives and brightened up our drab existence, and in the same way, he left this mortal cage and went to the better place, The Elysium and the Beautiful beyond, See you on the other side one day soon 🔜 I.Z.
Ouvindo em 09/01/23 ... 6 da manhã, enquanto me arrumo pra trabalhar e enfrentar mais um dia de luta ... Essa música nos faz ter esperança, que sim, sim, dias melhores sempre virão!
Bellísima canción , me encanta con el sentimiento que el cantaba , siento que todavía está, Dios lo bendijo con esa presencia y esa belleza de voz.El fué un gran regalo a todos.
He might be gone but his memory and voice is remembered all around the world ❤️he lived a good and happy life that's what is important rest in piece hope your somewhere over the rainbow🌈he will live forever in our hearts
Every time someone likes this comment, it will remind me to come back and listen to this masterpiece again and again. Never get tired of doing so.
Please come back
Same here, just so simple but amazing.
So ein schönes Lied kann man nicht vergessen,,,never😊😊😊

Can't stop living , but don't know how to really ..live without him.
Need a miracle ❣
I love you joshie. stay beautiful.
I lost someone I loved very much and it reshapes your life. I hope you find peace. It may or may not be your thing, but look up the author Stafford Betty. It might bring you some comfort.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I can only imagine 😔
@Kristin Kai Caldwell, my heart hurts for you! May God bless, comfort & strengthen you! & may you feel your precious Joshua's presence & love readily. His spirit is still around you & he's your angel. 😇 I hope you KNOW this & trust the signs of him. They're real. God bless you.
My heart just broke for you Kristin..stay strong 💫🌹🙌🌈

This is the last song my father sang before he passed away from Leukemia. His last wishes were to have his ashes spread in Hawaii. I am planning his last wishes listening to this beautiful song. For those that lost loved ones, my heart goes out to you. Big Bear Hugs coming your way.
@Gloria Domínguez Velasco he did ❤️
My sincerest condolences. May you make your father’s wishes come true.
You are wonderfully and fearfully made. You are so loved.
Thanks head up big man much love
Be very careful transporting ashes. If you take a plane, be cautious opening the container; it can explode from pressure changes
My husband loved this version of 'Over the Rainbow" Listening always makes me cry and hope that they're both in a better place.
My thoughts and prayers to you and your beloved.
The fact you say this, touches my hart, I think they're somehow with us
I'm so sorry for your loss. This is a beautiful way to remember him ♥️
I hope he gave his life Jesus Christ, the only savior.
I sing this song to my wife who passed away last August.
I hope she can hear me.
28 minutes til 2022, listening to this to get a feeling of peace, of hope. To be reassured of the goodness in the human heart. If there's an elevator that takes you to heaven this is what's playing in it!!
Id agree Rich.
With ya
Nuff said
Our world needs his right now
I would believe that since this particular Hawai'ian's music has been a big part of my own journey all these many years. Hawai'ian is all I seem to want to hear lately. Nearing 50 years in Puna/Kauai. Saw him in Hilo early 70s w/ Makaha Sons Of Ni'ihau. Dear God. From here on out as we approach apocalypse together, while I can still have the blessing of music, it's blues or Hawai'ian. PERIOD!
Look at how his gift has remained with us and is still lighting the world for us 🙏 Thank you Israel ❤😊
i wish he was still alive! i just discovered him today, and i will never forget him
Yes his music is profound and his voice a true gift
in the new disney movie, "moana" there will be a volcano based on him. Like, a living volcano. There is a male and a female one based on him and his wife.
same. im pregnant and i put the phone on my belly for my baby to listen to music and now i just wanna cry everytime i listen to this song because we both love this song and this man :(
Discovered him today, I have this song on playback. Sending love ❤ to his family. His memory lives on ❤
GREAT JOB MY BROTHER, YOU HAVE A VOICE OF AN ANGEL.
RIP WE SHALL HEAR YOU SING AGAIN IN FRONT OF OUR FATHER.
Amen
The world lost a bit of light when he passed to heaven. I guess God wanted a command performance.
*Amen*
Amen my friend!!
AMEN
I played this for my first grandchild the first time I held her in my arms. She has heard it almost every day I see her. As soon as she hears his voice, she smiles, says "Izzy", kisses the screen and says "love you". She is 1 and a half years old. Another generation loves Izzy!!!

Beautiful thx. For sharing
You, sir, are doing God's work.

His life and music touched so many xo
I still can't believe he is dead. He was a true inspiration and the definition of how humanity is meant to be.
thats True he cant even know how many People see this song like it is because his big success came just after he died
He might be at a better place right now. ♡☆
+jordan Belive in reincarnation ?
He will come back.
Hope will be musican too and have similar voice
+jider I'd reconsider that statement. Are you sure you want everyone to be obese?

Simply beautiful, and beautifully simple...

He is not dead he is somewhere over the rainbow 🌈❤️

Jacqueline Bourg Get out of here with your fanatic behaviour.
There is no such thing as 1 good religion. When will you sheeps realise there is a HUGE difference between faith and religion? As long as you have faith it doesent matter which child raping money collecting priests you pray with.
Jacqueline Bourg Religion is only a way to express faith. Its not needed.
I don`t leave because a demon told me to... GO TO HELL
Your religion is that of DARKNESS, the only master you know is HaShattan. You can stick your pagan Catlick church up your tuhus you idiot.
This Artist is gone but not forgotten, he'll always be in our hearts. His memories and music will last us forever.
He’s not gone, he’s somewhere over the rainbow 🌈❤️
May god send him back……touching many hearts by his words n music !!! Mathew Fernandes
Without a doubt voice like an angel so God became jelly/ impatient and wanted him back in his realm for concerts.

Respect to you dude, positive vibes and love

I am so sorry for your loss. Nothing can heal the pain of losing a child. I hope music brings you peace of mind and happiness. She's in every star and in the light of the moon. Blessed be....
sorry for your lost... good memories last forever
Essa música foi instruída por anjos celestiais. Não há como não tocar em nós,de forma sutil,leve e consciente. Nos leva a uma dimensão maior. Acalma, aquieta os pensamentos. Leva a um estado de relaxamento e controle de nossos pensamentos e emoções.
Gratidão aos céus ,por este presente lindo, a humanidade.

Es el lugar donde aveces e querido estar pero también el lugar donde Iz es hermoso e inspirador además el problema que el tenía glandular seguramente le trajo muchas tristezas las cuales le permiten hacer la mejor versión de esta canción . Que son los deseos de paz de una persona cualquiera 😉
Que c’est triste de partir si jeune 😢
Se cadeaux vient dû ciel mes de dieu
Humans are horrible terrible beings
I have no count as to how many times I have heard his smooth voice in this song. OMG. What a man. He seemed to be a person bringing back faith in humanity. May he rest forever in peace.
You said it my friend
Sawyer Fredericks does a very beautiful version of this song, and his vocals have a beautiful tone. I have both on my playlist and like you never get tired of this version. Hope IZ is someones muse.
Da kann ich dir nur zustimmen.
I didn't realise he had passed. So sad. What a wonderful young man. What a wonderful voice,smile an what a wonderful gift he gave to us.
So true!! ❤also your eyes are beautiful!
what a fabulous version of this song, the best ever
I and my family lost my dad acouple of weeks ago, this was played at the start of his funeral, I've seen a rainbow 3 times since, it's been a great thing of thing of comfort, thanks Israel, Dad, Husband and Grandad xx
omg☹
Blessings to you and your family
I am so sorry for your loss. Sending you hugs
Sorry from Raleigh, NC. Smile and be happy when you see the rainbows. That's what he'd want !!!
*My family and I
I WAS IN MAUI AND THE BIG ISLAND IN 2010 WAS MY BEST VACATION EVER...LOVE HIS MUSIC MAKE ME SAD BUT ENJOYED IT R.I.P
My dear husband passed away on July 9, 2023. Right before he passed he said he heard this song and it relaxed him. He said he knew now why I loved the song. He passed away a day and half after telling me this. This was the only song I played at his funeral. 😭 We were together almost 35 years and had 7 Children.
God bless you both.
This was the song we played at my Mom's memorial service. She and my dad had been married 11 days short of their 65th wedding anniversary. My dad only lasted 10 months after her passing. H simply could not go on without her, and died of a broken heart.
This was one of my mom's favorite songs
❤
❤I can’t cry I’m at work 😢
Whenever I'm sad I listen to this and it makes me so happy again ☺️
listen to Don't worry, be happy by Bobby Mcferrin, this and that song I listen to when I'm in a bad mood as well
+Brain Gonzalez bob marley?
+Becca Mellark it's not bob marley, a lot of people think that but if you listen to bob marley you can tell it's not him
yeah i listened to bobby and it's such an amazing song. I thought you made a typo or some sort of thing c;
+Victoria Louise hi vicki, just the same feelings, and a little bit more
You can be nostalgic, sad, depressed, but just listen to this song for your spirit to feel full and relaxed again, love, love and love this song forever!

Belíssima música! Esse guerreiro havaiano nunca será esquecido. Ouvindo em 2022
I had the honor of seeing him perform in person. What a special moment in time.
Oi
Used to play this to my tummy whilst pregnant with my son, played it to him everyday since he was born and now he stops in his tracks and lays still listening until it is over. ❤

Sin palabras GENIO
The one song that can make me smile and cry with joy as well as cry with the sadness of loss. God Bless you Iz, may your soul be in eternal rest.
It's such a shame he passed so young. I can only imagine what he could have accomplished. He was awesome.
My son introduced me to this artist...this was the opening song at his memorial service after he died suddenly on May 8, 2017 at age 34. I play it multiple times throughout the year in his memory...always brings a smile to my face ( and a tear to my eye)
I'm glad it can still bring a smile to your face, I can't image how difficult it must've been at the time - to suddenly lose a loved one. I hope the passage of time and beautiful music continue to bring you comfort.
@@lisalosthername thank you for your condolence...
Im reading comments of people saying they're still listening to this song in 2023. This song is not one that will ever be forgotten and will be played year around. Listened to this song a few days ago and it made smile and cry. Smile because it takes me back to the islands while im fighting traffic or just having a bad day. Crying because this song just does that to you. Its just a beautiful song sang by a beautiful soul. Have a beautiful day everyone 🥰🥰
I think someone also played a very beautiful version of it in the AGT 2024 if i'm not mistaken. I might have to check! ❤

I love this song because it makes me think of heaven which is located somewhere over the rainbow. When Jesus returns and takes me to heaven (which could happen any day now, considering how crazy this world is) then my troubles really will all melt away like lemon drops. God bless everyone reading this message. And if you don’t know Jesus Christ as your Savior yet, do not delay any longer. John 3:16 is the simplicity of salvation. The key word is believe! Hope to see you all one day soon somewhere over the rainbow. 🌈
Man, I didn't know the singer but, ever since I heard his rendition of "Over the rainbow" a couple years back, I was over the rainbow and overjoyed. Rest peacefully Braddah. Thank you for your inspirational music! 🤟🙏🏼❤

The most beautiful remix of an old classic, first heard during the credits to the movie Joe Black.
Was my wife's favourite and played it a her memorial last Thursday. Thank you IZ, yours and their memories will never die, along with this version.
Your wife is with IZ now, prayers to your family
Sorry for your loss ❤
I first heard this song at my grandmothers house on vinyl and then years later at the end of the film 50 First Dates
Linda música 👏👏👏🌹🌺👍
Essa música com essa voz maravilhosa...me faz levitar como se estivesse sem problemas...sem tristeza dentro do meu coração...me faz feliz...amo esse cantor...que agora está perto do pai celestial...❤❤
I just love this song.. its a calming song with a message of hope. Unbelievable to me that it would have any thumbs down.. I guess that's the world we live in with some people always trying to add negativity. Stay positive world!
i love researching songs - wiki 'd this one = very very interesting background
dont worry pal.... there is always possitivity.... because there is some negativity
How we could even know , how possitivity feels... without sense any negativity.....
These negativity are here just to increse the pleasure of possitivity....
Stay safe and stay happy... life is short...
Brad Walker dislikes can be auto generated. random people.
Also, I think sometimes a thumb down on a post like this could mean the person is sad that IZ is gone (like they don’t want to be saying it is good that he is gone - that sort of thing) ... know what I mean?
This song really gets to me 😔
Da vontade de sair por aí, sem rumo... a vida é realmente bela. Quem tiver ouvindo em 2020 da um oi...

Love love love this song. This was played at my daddy’s celebration of life. It took me 13 years before I can listen to it without crying my eyes out. Absolutely beautiful.
I cry to and it's very healthy and healing and I make no apologies for it to anyone! 🙏
Well it's been 12 years since I played this at my Mom's service and I could use a couple tissues right now 🌹🙄💞 All is well. WE all miss YOU all and send boundless love to YOU. 💙💜💚❤💛

I have tears right now, played at my Dad's Celebration of life and step brother.
Sometimes when I come to RUclips
I listen to my music and cry,
When I cry it makes me feel so good,
Nothing wrong with a man crying.
I do too, in an odd way I go deeper into my head then somehow find my way out by doing just what you have mentioned.
Truth
Same here sir 😂😂 but i make sure to lock my door 😅😅😅
nothing wrong with it at all.
I’m glad I’m not the only one. My dear cousin/brother recently passed away and I come here for some music therapy and end up crying every time. Damm I miss my cousin so much
I get tears in my eyes every time I hear it. It's the first song I added, to my list of songs, to play at my funeral. I see many comments here of others with the same idea. May God grant blessings, peace, and grace to you all.
Same here bro 👍👍👍👍👍
I still listen to the music of Israel often. So soothing and lovely.
It’s the peace and calm this song brings for me this 2021.
Yes me to. God bless.
This man has a good soul. God be with him. The world needs more people like him.
He passed away 😏
It was also a one take. What a legend. Oh and I'm not crying you are.
Amen

Yes sure We prayed for that 🔥😇🙏❤️🙌
