I just heard this song at the checkout at the grocery store - and I commented to the cashier that it was the worst song I'd ever heard in my life (she laughed). I had no idea who the singer was but when I got home I googled it and figured it out. What a total lack of rhythm, melody, phrasing. What a horrible pseudo-reggae-lite beat. What an overdose of sappiness. What an utter lack of artistic sensibility. This singer might have a good voice but she has no sense of how to interpret a song.
Sad to think this is listed elsewhere as by Norah Jones, who sings so differently. Also beautifully but completely different voice, tone, and feel. That and only 30,000 views... such a shame, this is by far my favorite rendition of Somewhere over the rainbow. Thanks.
@aliasfoxkde I'm sorry i usually don't do this and i hate people who do this, but really? this is your favorite version? are you too good for Israel Kamakawiwo'ole? you want some female version of a justin bieber wannabe singing perhaps the most beautiful song in the world and butchering it. I came to this video looking for a different take, i ended up quite literally throwing up in my mouth from this song. Listen to Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's and tell me his version is worse than this.
@pricecarterj Everyone's entitled to their opinion. Listen to your favorite version if you don't like this one. Don't jump someone's case just because they happen to favor this version over another. Also, I highly down you "quite literally threw up" in your mouth. That's absurd. Please, calm down.
Such a great, simple song, sung honestly by a beautiful voice that has a great future -a great present even! What a shame she can't do a duet with Israel on this.
@Boxersanchez, don't worry about maybe being gay - it's a gay old world! It probably doesn't make you a bad person . . . just love life and this song!
This song makes me think of when i get to high school and everyone in my grade will get split up and i will miss all those hapy moments we had together..I LOVE YOU GUYS..NEVER FORGET THAT
@TheRedBullAngel ...Tell it like it is if you like it like it is. But if you don't like it like it is, then don't tell it like it is--tell it like you want it to be. If you tell it like you want it to be, long enough, you will begin to feel it like you want it to be, and when you feel it like you want it to be, it be's like you want it to be.
this song is getting me through the pile of poo that is currently my life...i am beginning to see that there will be a silver lining and im waiting for the rainbows to come back into my life. i love the pictures you have used. music and art is such a healer...i have lost my job, my home, and (almost) my boyfriend, and been betrayed by someone i thought was a friend all in a few days. im at rock bottom. but i just wanted to say thank you. your video is having a very positive effect, sarah x
@TheRedBullAngel God is preparing you for greatness, in His own way. Like many of us, myself included, we don't see the ryhme or reason until later, then someday we look back and it all makes/made sense and it is amazing. Be still, and know He is there.
@TheRedBullAngel .. there is always hope, practice the Art of Allowing. Which means reaching for the thought that feels best, not the thought that is the real thought, not the thought that is telling it like it is. Telling it like it is only holds you where it is: "Damn it, I'm going to tell it like it is. ...
@cashin3steps Thank you so much. Your two comments are very inspirational. My life has now completely turned around since i orignally posted my comment and I am well on the way to recovery x
