Ya know when you get a song stuck in your head...

And you can't get rid of it until you buy the CD and play it to death?

I've been that way for days.

There's been a kewl sounding version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" on a couple of commercials. I've also heard it on an ER last year and in a couple of movies.

Well I finally got frustrated enough to go hunting for who sings it. It's a Hawaiian guy named Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. Great mellow voice. Listened to a few more songs he'd done and then I learned that he died in 1997 at the age of 38.

Makes the song I've been enjoying so much mean that much more.
