He became famous outside Hawaii when his album Facing Future was released in 1993 with his medley of "Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World", which was subsequently featured in several films, television programs, and commercials. From childhood, his family called Israel by his Hawaiian middle name, Kaʻanoʻi, the "beloved one". His name would later become the title name of his first solo album, Kaʻanoʻi, and also foretells the greatness of this "cherished one". It is interesting to note here that part of his name, anoʻi, when simplified to noʻi may be a contraction of the Hawaiian word, nohi. Nohi means "bright-colored, vivid, as the rainbow" (see Hawaiian Dictionary, Pukui and Elbert). Nohi, rainbow, beloved one, and cherished one are powerful symbols in his life. Iz's recording of the song "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" would become renowned throughout the world and continues to garner high acclaim. The song has come to be known as Izʻs "signature song", the most renowned of all his songs. Kamakawiwo`ole was nicknamed "The Gentle Giant" by his admirers. He was described as always cheerful and positive, and he was best known for his love of the land and of the people of Hawaiʻi. Through his consummate ukulele playing and incorporation of other idioms (such as jazz and reggae), Iz remains one of the major influences in Hawaiian music over the last 15 years. Israel's recording of "Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" reached #12 on Billboard's Hot Digital Tracks chart the week of 1/31/04 (for the survey week ending 1/18/04), possibly due to its use in the Adam Sandler film 50 First Dates, and the Brad Pitt film Meet Joe Black. In 2006, a version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", in an arrangement based on Iz', was performed by The Worthless Peons in "My Way Home", the 100th episode of Scrubs, over the closing montage. A recording of the same song by Iz was used in the closing scenes of the final episode of Life on Mars (TV Series). It is also a featured song in the movie Finding Forrester. In 2002, the song was used to powerful effect in the closing scenes of Anthony Edwards' last appearance in ER as Dr. Mark Greene, in the episode "On the Beach". On week 8 of American Idol (season 7), Jason Castro performed his own version of this song except that he left out the "What a Wonderful World" line, but still gave credit to Israel for the song. DEATH: Throughout the later part of his life, Iz was obese and at one point carried 758 pounds (344 kg) on his 6 feet 2 inches (1.9 m) frame. He endured several hospitalizations and died of weight-related respiratory illness on June 26, 1997 at 12:18 am at the age of 38. The Hawaiʻi State Flag flew at half-staff on July 10, 1997, the day of Iz's funeral. His koa wood coffin lay in state at the Capitol building in Honolulu. He was the third person in Hawaiian history to be accorded this honor (the other two were Governor John A. Burns and Senator Spark Matsunaga) and the only non-politician. Over 10,000 people attended his funeral. Thousands of fans gathered and cheered as his ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean at Mākua Beach on July 12, 1997. On September 20, 2003, hundreds paid tribute to Iz as a 200-pound bronze bust of the revered singer was unveiled at the Waianae Neighborhood Community Center on O'ahu. The singer's widow, Marlene Kamakawiwo'ole, and sculptor Jan-Michelle Sawyer were present for the dedication ceremony.

Mahalo nui loa everyone for all your awesome comments and your continued visits. And thanks especially to Bruddah IZ. This song always gives me chicken skin (goosebumps) fo shua. He was a moke with a big heart. A hui hou bruddah! A tribute to Bruddah IZ - Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, a favorite son of Hawaii whose music brought joy to millions the world over. While IZ had recorded a version of "Over The Rainbow", this version is unique in that it features a medley of both "Over The Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World." IZ served as a goodwill ambassador for the native people of Hawaii and will remain in our hearts forever. Aloha and Mahalo! P.S. I apologize for the short audio dropouts at the very beginning. It occurred during uploading. Unfortunately, to re-upload would mean deleting all of your wonderful comments and starting over again. I won't let it happen. Perhaps I'll upload a 2nd version of this. I've received hundreds of inquiries about getting a MP3 of this song. I strongly recommend buying a CD from Mountain Apple Records, Bruddah IZ's label in Honolulu. Support Hawaii's #1 record label. It can be ordered online at www.mountainapplecompany.com

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - Wonderful World (Somewhere Over The Rainbow)

Tags: Israel Kamakawiwo'ole Bruddah Iz Somewhere Over The Rainbow Wonderful World
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole was bigger than life, his music reaching out to Hawaiians encouraging them to take pride in their heritage and to love and understand everyone. He was a huge man whose larger spirit wrestled with his giant physical form, and finally escaped at the age of 38, when he died on June 26, 1997. IZ, whose parents were born on Ni'ihau, traveled throughout Hawai'i, singing about the land and the people. Though it was difficult for IZ to move during the last months of his life, he carried oxygen to keep himself going and checked in and out of the hospital between engagements. While he was resting, he communicated with his fans worldwide through his own iz.com web site and email. Each time he regained energy, Israel came out again to pack auditoriums with fans who treasured every last live performance and often sang along with him-a chorus that would fill a cathedral. Israel's legacy is his songwriting, his recordings and his spirit, which remains with people of all ages, whom he touched with music, humor and a grace uncommon for such a talented man. As IZ told his fans on his album E Ala E­, Ka puna pu'u wai o Hawai'i nei, "You are the heartbeat of Hawai'i.

Hawaiian music at its best! Pure chicken skin performance by the late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole (IZ) at the 1996 Na Hoku Hanohano Awards. Listen to this message straight from the heart of Braddah IZ. On the biggest evening for Hawaiian music, the Makaha Sons decides to join Braddah Iz on stage and ho'oponopono all that had happened in their past. As I watched this broadcasted on KFVE I remember being overwhelmed with emotions. It was basically both sides saying sorry through their actions and voices. On June 26, 1997 Israel Kamakawiwo'ole died. Your music lives on Braddah IZ. Hawaiian Music lovers I share this one with you all. Malama pono from www.pipeline2paradise.com -Pu'ukani

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole The Starfish Ka Hôkû Kai [kah HOH' KOO' kai] Once upon a time, there was a wise kupuna (elder), who went to the sea to contemplate. One day, while walking along the shore, the kupuna looked down the beach, and saw a gracefully dancing human figure. The kupuna wondered out loud, "Who would so joyfully greet this day with hula?" and began to walk faster to catch up. Getting closer, the kupuna saw that the dancer was a keiki (child), who was not dancing at all. The keiki was reaching down to the sand to pick up something, and was very gently throwing it into the sea. The kupuna called out to the keiki, "Aloha! What are you doing?" The keiki paused, looked up and replied, "Throwing starfish into the sea." Surprised, the kupuna sputtered, "I...I guess I should have asked, WHY are you throwing starfish into the sea?" The keiki smiled brightly, pointed upward and, with exquisite simplicity, replied, "The sun is up, the tide is going out. If I don't throw them in, they will die." "But, don't you realize, " asked the kupuna, "that there are miles and miles of beach and starfish all along it? You can't possibly make a difference!" The keiki listened politely. Then bent down, picked up another starfish, threw it gently into the sea, just beyond the breaking waves, and exuberantly declared, "It made a difference for that one."

Israel "Bruddah Iz" Kamakawiwo'ole (20-5-1959/26-6-1997) fue un popular cantante hawaiano. Conocido como Iz, se dio a conocer fuera de Hawái cuando su disco Facing Future salió a la venta en 1993 incluyendo su potpourri mezclando los clásicos "Somewhere Over the Rainbow / What a Wonderful World". Su combinación de estas canciones ha sido parte del arreglo musical de varias películas, entre las que se cuentan, Descubriendo a Forrester, ¿Conoces a Joe Black?, 50 primeras citas. Nació en 1959 en la isla Oahu. Fue criado en la comunidad Kaimuki en las afueras de Waikīkī donde sus padres vivían. A los 11 años empezó a tocar instrumentos musicales junto con su hermano mayor Skippy. Durante su adolescencia, su familia se mudó a Makaha. Allí conoció a Louis "Moon" Kauakahi, Sam Gray y Jerome Koko quienes junto con su hermano Skippy formaron el grupo Hijos Makaha de Ni'ihau. Poco a poco desde 1976 y a lo largo de los 80, el grupo fue ganando popularidad en Hawái y en el resto de los Estados Unidos. En 1982 Skippy Kamakawiwo'ole, hermano de Iz, falleció de un ataque cardíaco. Ese mismo año Iz se casó con su novia de la adolescencia Marlene y al poco tiempo tuvieron una hija a quien llamaron Ceslieanne "Wehi" En 1990, Iz lanzó su primer álbum como solista Ka'ano'i el cual le valió para ganar varios premios en Hawái. Facing Future fue lanzado en 1993, siendo generalmente considerado como su mejor trabajo. El álbum incluye además de "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World", su canción más popular, "Hawai'i 78," "White Sandy Beach of Hawai'i," "Maui Hawaiian Sup'pa Man," y "Kaulana Kawaihae". Al avanzar su carrera, Iz se fue caracterizando por promover los valores y la cultura de Hawái, así como el movimiento independentista, a través de sus canciones. En 1997, Iz fue honrado por la Hawaii Academy of Recording Arts en la ceremonia anual de los premios Na Hoku Hanohano en cuatro de las más importantes categorías, entre ellas mejor cantante y mejor álbum. Iz no pudo asistir a la ceremonia y vio el evento desde su habitación en el hospital. Durante la mayor parte de su vida adulta Iz fue obeso llegando a pesar 340 kg. Fue hospitalizado en numerosas ocasiones, y murió afectado de problemas respiratorios derivados de su enorme peso el 26-6-1997 a los 38 años de edad. Su cuerpo fue velado en el edificio del Capitolio en Honolulu, con la bandera a media asta en los edificios estatales. Luego de cremado las cenizas de Iz fueron esparcidas en el océano frente a la playa de Makua. Iz se distinguía por pertenecer a una casi desaparecida minoría que sólo tienen antecesores hawaianos nativos. Iz es recordado por su carácter siempre alegre y positivo, y por su amor a la tierra y al pueblo hawaiano. * * * He became famous outside Hawaii when his album Facing Future was released in 1993 with his medley of "Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World", which was subsequently featured in several films, television programs, and commercials.

Wiwo'ole means courage or courageous in the Hawaiian language. Kamaka may come from kanaka, which means man. * * * Somewhere over the rainbow, Way up high, In a dream that you dream of, Once in a lullaby, Oh somewhere over the rainbow, Bluebirds fly, And the dreams that you dream of Dreams really do come true, Someday I'll wish upon a star, Wake up where the clouds are far behind me, Where troubles melt like lemon drops, High above the chiminey tops, That's where you'll find me, Oh 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 watch them bloom, For me and you, And I think to myself, What a wonderful world Well I see skies of blue and, Clouds of white, The brightness of day, I like the night, And I think to myself, What a wonderful world The colors of the rainbow, So pretty in the sky, Are 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, Than we all know, And I think to myself, What a wonderful world Someday I'll wish upon a star, Wake up where the clouds are far behind me, Where trouble melts like lemon drops, High above the chiminey tops, That's where you'll find me, Oh somewhere over the rainbow, Way up high, And the dreams that you dream do, Why, oh why can't I
