5. I always tear up when I hear this version..

When I was a little one my father would sing this song to me at bed time when he was home.
Which was not often him being a merchant seaman...
Fond memories... Thanks, Iz...

11. Gracias! By far my favorite version; IZ..a talented young man who left us much too early. Here's mix

..of Somewhere Over the Rainbow/It's a Wonderful World.

[Note: Found mix after your post-- had learned of this young man years after his death; would listen to his music from time to time--IZ had the sweetest, unique voice. Always enjoyed the beautiful photos and images of Hawaii, its people, iculture and magnificent vistas/ landscape. Just lovely. Again thank you for post! ]
