Story behind the song:
Jon Schmidt and Steven Sharp Nelson were booked for a Piano Guys show in Hawaii. How could we resist filming our next video in the land of Aloha -- beautiful beaches, green mountains, and fresh pineapple?? We went to our Founders and Facebook fans to ask what song they wanted us to play there. "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" was the nearly-unanimous response. But you know how we are ... we couldn't "just" do this tune by itself...so in the studio we found a made-in-heaven matchup in the timeless melody from the Shaker Hymn "Simple Gifts" written in the 1800's (also used by Aaron Copland in his Ballet "Appalachian Spring"). We feel it's an especially appropriate mash-up because of our profound love and respect for the Hawaiian culture -- a people who are so good at finding happiness in simplicity. As you probably could hear we borrowed a lot of ideas from Iz's version which has become the stuff of legend. This arrangement is, in part, a tribute to him.
Getting a piano onto a sandy beach and then onto a big hill in a famous ranch within the SAME day (we only had 8 hours to film) was no small feat. The only thing harder would be to be predict Hawaiian weather, which ended up being our biggest challenge.
"We had a little extra help on this one. My mother, Lynne Sanders Nelson -- a main source of my inspiration for pursuing music -- passed away early in life from the effects of a brain tumor. She was an incredibly-gifted musician and taught me to play music passionately rather than just playing 'notes' on a page. 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' was one of her favorite songs. We finished this arrangement on what would have been her 70th birthday. Somehow she helped. I miss her so very much, but when I play songs like this I feel like I get to be with her again. This song is dedicated to her."
-Steven Sharp Nelson

One more from Angela Aki :) Such a strong, inspiring song! She's so awesome. I was really excited when I found this picture too - I think it really captures the feeling of the song.
Romaji and kanji below!
Otomegokoro
"Toriatsukai chuui!" nante
RABERU wo hararetaku nai kara
Zentai no nagare ni wa
Sakara wazu ni ikite ita
Soshiki no naka no koma ni shika sugi nai to itsumademo
Benkai shite iru no wa naze da
Donna buki yori mo jiyuuishi no hou ga tsuyoi kara
Osorezu ni tachiagare
Ubai tore yari kaese
Butsukare yo otomegokoro
Tsumarete mo fumarete mo
Saki hokore otomegokoro
"Shikata ga nai"
"Yamu wo enai"
Konna kotoba ga kuchiguse nara
Shiawase ni hane ga hae
Me no mae wo tonde yuku
Taisetsu na mono wo yokodori sare sou ni natta toki
Damatte misugosu no wa naze da
Higeki wo kigeki ni kakikaeru shudan wa tada hitotsu
Monogatari ni tobikome

乙女心
「取り扱い注意!」なんて
ラベルを貼られたくないから
全体の流れには
逆らわずに生きていた
組織の中の駒にしかすぎないといつまでも
弁解しているのはなぜだ
どんな武器よりも自由意志の方が強いから
恐れずに立ち上がれ
奪い取れ やり返せ
ぶつかれよ 乙女心
摘まれても 踏まれても
咲き誇れ 乙女心
「仕方がない」
「止むを得ない」
こんな言葉が口癖なら
幸せに羽が生え
目の前を飛んでゆく
大切なものを横取りされそうになった時
黙って見過ごすのはなぜだ
悲劇を喜劇に書き変える手段はただ一つ
物語に飛び込め
奪い取れ やり返せ
ぶつかれよ 乙女心
倒れても 損ねても
泣くんじゃない 乙女心
奪い取れ やり返せ
ぶつかれよ 乙女心
摘まれても 踏まれても
咲き誇れ 乙女心
奪い取れ やり返せ
ぶつかれよ 乙女心
倒れても 損ねても
泣くんじゃない 乙女心
Enjoy! Comments onegai!
