Just listening to a cool ukelele, a cool guy....and really thinking for just a few minutes that life really can be good....
Thanks for kicking this---I hope other people are listening, enjoying, and not stressing for just a few moments.

15. I love the funeral reception scene in "The Big Chill" |
|
Someone looks at the crowded room and says "You'd never get this many people at MY funeral". Jeff Goldblum responds "I'll come. And I'll bring a date".
This is a really beautiful version of a really beautiful song. The original by Judy Garland, is great, jazz versions too. My youngest son took piano for a few years and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" was his first recital piece, a duet with his teacher. Wasn't a dry eye in the place.
Izzy's version is haunting because of his great voice, yet light because of the uke. What a great combination, I'm glad he recorded it.

13. Check out this YouTube. Mellow and lovely. He was a great talent. |
|
http://youtube.com/watch?v=k_YfyKahP-0This song helped me through the death of my mother. Sounds silly and morbid...but it really helped. Waves, palm trees. Perfect. Shark! (He never lost his sense of humor.)
