Over the Rainbow by IZ (no one but haoles calls him Israel Kamakawiwo'ole) is simply amazing.
I own all of his cd's.......an amazing musician never truly appreciated outside of Hawai'i partly due to his size and the genre of music.....who tragically took his own life.
All of his songs have so much meaning, and truly reflect what it means to be Hawaiian today.
There will not be another like him

I have to agree with you. I have all of his recordings, as well...his Wonderful World is TOTALLY weep-worthy, too.

I bought 'Facing Future' (in my opinion his best cd) in 1998 at the Maui Tropical Plantation, having no idea who he was. And from then on I was hooked.
He just speaks to a place in me that I guess had not been touched before.
I have always not been thrilled with the way that we aquired Hawai'i......and the song about what Hawaii's former kings and queens would say if they say Hawai'i now always gets to me.
I really wonder what kinds of things he would have done had he lived

I second, third, fourth and fifth Unchained Melody, be it from the Righteous Brothers, Bono or...didn't Clay Aiken do it on AI? At the risk of over-speaking, I think it's a near perfect song. Sung properly, it makes me tear up every time.

And I second My Song as well, because I'm on an Elton John kick right now.

I don't know if those would be considered love songs exactly... but they could be.

I'm a sucker for

"All I Ask of You" from POTO

My wedding... my husband better be a damn good singer. Because we're singing it when we're coming down the isle by God.

((Yes, I'm the loser who sits at home and thinks about their wedding because I have no life))
