Somewhere Over The Rainbow

[Rene Asologuitar]

"Over the Rainbow" is a ballad by Harold Arlen with lyrics by Yip Harburg. It was written for the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, in which it was sung by actress Judy Garland in her starring role as Dorothy Gale. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Song and became Garland's signature song.

Dedicated to my best friend, Sergio Nabatar Jr aka Jok-Jok, who I have not seen for a long time. This is his favorite song, playing with his ukulele.
Also, dedicated to all peoples looking for a hope and peace in this troubled world.

One of my favourite films by the way.
I've heard so many versions of this and they all have a magic about them.
The lyrics are so beautiful.
This is an outstanding performance.
Love guitar work.
You have a great tone in your voice.Excellent.

Yip Harburg was amazing – and so is your cover of his most famous song.

Yip always included a strong social and political component to his work, fighting racism and poverty.

This is a great tribute to Yip. It's long, but worth the time.

anyone my age and perhaps plus or minus 20 years knows this song very well...Judy Garlands performance of it in the Wizard of Oz is forever etched into our memories... with the idea that good overcomes evil and that there is no place like home...the longing of ones heart.

I can only imagine how many people have sang this through the years...

all I can say Rene is you have honored this song supremely with an excellent playing and singing rendition...lovely, soft, comforting...

[Farrell Jackson]

A very well-known song to cover Rene. It takes a good voice to do it justice and you've certainly done it! Nice picking and smooth chord changes. It's a pleasure to hear!
