I believe this was recorded in one take and spur of the moment late at night. We all thank the engineer for keeping that studio open for him so we all got to hear this incredible song. RIP IZ
Yes his producer got a call from Iz at 3 a.m. and he said he had an idea. He did this song in 1 take. Beautiful song. R.i.p. Iz
@@joelabel7843 I'm glad I was right on it being one take but thanks for the full story.
I feel like this man’s voice can end Wars. Simply beautiful
Well said. Agreed
Pronunciation: comma ka vevo ole. Such a pure voice. I grew up in Hawaii and remember him well. This sing made it global and is the best version of this song anywhere.
When Trent Reznor said Johnny Cash had made Hurt his song, this was what he meant. Iz made this song his, and in doing so, made it all of ours.
I lived in Hawaii for a bit. I had to unlearn habits & learn that two different vowel sounds could be successive without a consonant to break up each sound. Apostrophes take the place of percussive consonants. Beautiful language. Beautiful state. Beautiful people. I thank the Hawaiian people for having me. Blessed to live in Kaneohe Bay for 3 years. If I could retire anywhere, it'd be in Kailua.
I have no shame. I cry my face off every single time I hear this. When I found out he'd died(I found out a couple years later)I was just knocked out. Such a loss of such a gift😭
You buggers it's flooding here in northland Aotearoa new zealand and you put this song on all we needed is more water coming from my eyes this is Soo bloody spine chilling and sad
Everytime, i almost cry, when i hear this song...
one of the most beautiful humans ever!
IZ is an inspiration and was loved by all. I was at Makua when they spread his ashes from the Hokule'a. Cars stopped along the 2 lane road leading to Ka'ena bringing traffic to a stand-still. Hundreds of people were wading in the water and hundreds more were on land. A procession of big rigs blew and held their horns echoing through the valley while his ashes were placed into the ocean making it sound as if the State of Hawaii was crying . . . it's a moment I will never forget. An incredible celebration of life for an incredible man!!
This is an incredibly moving song. It's my favourite version. I cry every time. My father passed away in 2006, my family and I didn't know until 2009 (long story) but we learned this song was played at his funeral. Maybe that's why I've always felt a connection and overwhelmed with love when listening to this song. Whatever it may be this is a beautiful song :)
Ps. It's said that Israel recorded this song in one take.
This song genuinely brings tears to my eyes because we played it at my dad’s funeral. Iz had the sweetest, gentlest voice I’ve ever heard. It’s a reassuring sound that brings peace to me that over that rainbow is heaven. It’s a bittersweet song because I just think of my dad being in heaven.
I have yet to meet a single person who does't love this song, well this version by IZ! It just lifts your heart and makes you feel happy!
“Back in the day… ten years ago…. “. I fell off my chair.
People like Iz are why God gave us music! This also shows what a great song that is. Beautiful lyrics too.
Morning fellas!! I'm so pleased y'all did this song and video! That man is surely sorely missed and loved! Got me teared up guys!! Great song! Thanks guys❤️🙂
was watching another video and stopped to come watch this all-time, hearing classic my 3 yr old niece trying to sing this song is one of the best things i have heard.
This song touches the soul.
Oh wow! Never thought y'all would react to brother Iz!! One of the biggest names to come from my home, Hawaii. Hey by the way Iz had called a studio at 3am cause the desire to do this song hit him suddenly. So the studio owner let him come down. He laid this track down in one take! One. Single. Take!
I definitely cried the first few times I heard this, even before I knew dude was dead. Just the tone of the song has that effect on a lot of people.
And yeah, he did seem like such a genuinely kind soul. I really hope he’s at peace, but I don’t think I need to worry- he seemed more at peace in his life than anyone I’ve ever met.
My mom passed from Pancreatic Cancer in 2017. She was only 68. Her brothers and sisters put together a collection of videos/photos/memories and this version of this song was in the background.
I will always cherish that day everytime I hear this song. It is also a good way to describe my Mom. She was always full of love and light in the darkest of times, wholesome and pure. She loved everyone even people she just met. I miss her a lot! Love ya Mom! 🌈❤
It takes someone with strong faith in who they are to allow themselves to show emotion on here. It's nice to see. It lets those of us out here know we're not the only ones.
It’s so beautiful 🥲✨🌈🎶🥰music is life !
Beautiful reaction boys. Very powerful video, I tear up every time I watch this. R.I.P.
I still pull this song up on a sad day. He was a beautiful man......Rip Iz.
I heard this version on a commercial maybe? I didn’t know the story of this man. When this started, I thought this was the ultimate portrayal of joy and hope, then at the end I figured out what was happening. That was sad, but the people there were celebrating him, so that was even beautiful as well.
Here's your chicken answer:
In the 1700s, sugarcane was introduced to the islands, and large plantations soon sprung up. These plantations brought with them a menagerie of animals, including chickens. When the sugar industry began to decline in the late 1800s, many of these animals were simply let loose and left to fend for themselves.
- Wikipedia
They played this song as Mark Greene was dying in ER (TV programme) back in the day. Makes me choke up every time I hear it. It's beautiful, a one take masterpiece.
there is another version out there where he merges Somewhere Over the Rainbow and What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong. It is so beautiful.
Beautiful
great job guys. very nice.....very nice
Being from Hawai'i, I can confirm chickens being everywhere haha. Hope you guys make it out here sometime. Incredible scenery. Na pali coast, waimea canyon, black, green and red sand beaches, tallest sea cliffs in the world. So much to see. Great video as always, dudes 🤙
I've always loved this version the most 🖤 the state bird got me 🤣🤣🤣
This is probably one of my all time favorite chill songs.
Never be ashamed to cry. This song is beautiful, and that's the true power of music: to make us feel. Whenever I'm in a bittersweet mood, this is one of the songs I play. I have a four suggestions that are in a similar vein:
🔹"Blue" - Mai Yamane / The Seatbelts - from the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack. The first minute is a bit of a gospel vibe, but the rest of it? Absolutely beautiful. Mai's voice is so soulful. It's a hopeful bittersweet. It makes me cry a good bit.
🔹"Old '55" - Tom Waits - IDK if either of you still keep up with pro wrestling, but this song was played in the tribute video to Brodie Lee who tragically died two years ago. It's become forever associated in my mind. The song itself is great and I think you'd like it.
🔹"Feed Jake" - Pirates of the Mississippi - It's a country song with a dog, but it's a hell of a lot more than that if pay attention to the lyrics. You might even relate to it, as there's a line that says: "You know you got my heart, babe / But music's got my soul..." The music video really adds to it. It's a favorite of mine that I wish was reacted to more.
🔹"Miracle" - Jon Bon Jovi - from the Young Guns II soundtrack. If I could afford Patreon, this would be my song suggestion. It's fairly upbeat in tempo, but it's the lyrics where the bittersweetness comes into play. I'd love for you to do a lyrical analysis. It's one of my favorite songs. Fun fact: the official video has a young, pre-Friends Matt LeBlanc in it! I don't think it's ever been reacted to, either, so you'd be the first. 😁
(In all honesty, I would legitimately scrape the money together to pay you to review the entire Young Guns II soundtrack. I'm serious, name your price. It's all Jon Bon Jovi featuring different artists and musicians such as Jeff Beck and Little Richard. It's an absolutely amazing album and one of my favorites of all time.)
Oh-wee-oh-lee-oh-wee....yes! swish! 😂🤣😂🤣😂....great reaction:)
The first time I heard that song was on an episode of "ER" when Dr. Green died of cancer in Hawaii. I loved that cover. It made the scene in that show 10 times more sad.
I love this vid so much - knowing y’all got this. I’m happy to comment before fully viewing
I think Iz is the only person buried with a state funeral in modern Hawaii
Rest in Peace my beautiful brother ❤️
Cheers guys fantastic reactions.. and when you go there record it and make a reaction video
I don't care what music you like, this never gets old.
From what I've read, Iz was the only non-royal or politician to ever receive a state funeral in Hawaii, that's how universally he was beloved. I wish everyone could hear his song "Hawaii '78", a lament for his ancestors and how they would feel about all the changes that have come to the islands - I wouldn't have thought it possible, but I think it's even more beautiful and made me cry even more than this one.
I think this one of the most beautiful recordings of all time
There's 2 popular videos, one before he passed and this one, the remembrance! I'm glad yall chose this one. He was an absolute angel among us. I'm sitting in my truck watching this now just not wanting to get out until it's over.
This song goes HARD 💯🔥🔥 goes right to the ❤
Fun fact. Iz was asked to come to the studio to help, so Iz showed up 15min later and this song was recorded at 3am
First time i saw him was on a surf movie in the 80s named north shore.
Such an amazing version. And believe me, I didn’t plan on crying first thing in the morning. But we’ll worth it. Thank you guys for doing this. Have a great weekend. AND FOR GOD’S SAKE…react to more Volbeat. Cheapside Sloggers. Have a great Sunday boys.
Love the reaction.
Great Song
My suggestion would be Jim Croce, either Bad Bad Leroy Brown or Don't mess around with Jim.
Thanks.
Incredible IZ. ❤️
Gets me every single time. 🥺
This is just so beautiful. I love this❤️❤️❤️
Hi bros, i love this version more than every other ! For me he was one of the very greatest singer of all cause he sings so soft and gentle !
I love you both ! Greatings and love from germany ♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️
If you love someone tell them often
I was stationed in Hawaii for 4 years. Words can't describe the beauty of that place. Kailua is the prettiest place on earth, and I grew up in Florida.
Oh no, I always cry when I hear this. So soul-stirring.
absolutely my favorite version of this song. He had a voice that makes you believe there is good in this world when so many things show otherwise
They’d played his funeral on the news when I was in first grade but he’s a legend
Loved it the first time I heard it and I've watched it at least 100× very sad about his passing 😢
The last third of the video is of his funeral!Everyone went to celebrate his life!
I can't not cry when I hear this. Every single time. ❤
Traditional having ashes put into ocean was reserved for Kings and Queen's. So to get permission to being spread into the ocean. Is a huge deal.
IZ LIVES
His beautiful voice was only dwarfed by the size of his heart. Everyone should try to be the human he wished we were.
Gets me every time
Not many songs do
SIMPLE MAN
DANCE WITH MY FATHER
SNUFF
AND THIS
THANK YOU 🤟🤟🏴🏴
Love the king shirt smokey, just a heads up, they have a new ep, and video out should really check out "brains on the asphalt."
I really believe it’s impossible for a human being to dislike this song.
My son's teacher played this a lot for her students when we were all at home and the kids were doing distance learning. That is the first time I ever heard this. It was really cool for her to play this for the kids. I loved that teacher! Such a great teacher!
This holds meaning for me. My mom loved this version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow and it was played at her memorial service. It will be a year on March 1st and it will always get me teared up.....
One of the tunez I've always sang to the Rugrats!! 💜🖤💜
Legendary this guy will always be remembered his music will always be played. I love heavy metal but it's a good change listening to IZ.
Goosebumps of joy. :}
Please tell me you guys know who did this originally.
(Judy Garland in the movie The Wizard of OZ. August 25, 1939)
He mixed it with Louis Armstrong's song What a Wonderful World.
Thank you for pointing out the mashup! It sadly is just referred to as Over the Rainbow but the blending of these two songs is something else again.
On a similar but somewhat different note,,, the Rhode Island Red "rooster" is the state bird of Rhode Island....
i'm a 51 year old guy, was in the Army & work in Law Enforcement...this song/video makes me tear up Every Time! It is sad & beautiful.
This is a wonderful song. I loved this man’s work and vibe and miss him. He died the same way as my husband, minus a lot of suffering, since Israel seemed to have died suddenly, at least. This song often makes me cry- a gift, actually. ❤️ This was his memorial video, with his ashes being spread into the Pacific Ocean which he loved so much.
Wow 😢 I cried ❤❤❤beautifulł😊
Love this song!
They played this in the ER episode when Dr Mark Greene passed away I bawled my eyes out such a beautiful cover by Iz ❤❤
Amazing rendition!!!
This song always makes me sob as if I’m witnessing the death of a best friend
The last shot in the video is Bruddah Iz (rhymes with IS) on the island of Kauai. He was a singing god out here in Hawaii.
I cry every time
Best version ever of this song!
I’m very glad y’all have heard this. It’s pretty wildly famous. Unfortunately my grandma loves it so much that I no longer love it lol. I’d bet at least 1 million of those 1 billion views are from my grandmother😅
RIP IZ.
I'd like to see you guys react to Hawaii 78 by brother iz. I know you can't pronounce his last name its easy to call him brother iz. Legend!
I'm checking it out now on Spotify, Holly crap, that is haunting beautiful!!!!!! Guys, I agree, check this one out!
You guys absolutely have to check out, Eva Cassidy's cover of this song as well, both she and Israel do the impossible and take one of the most covered songs in history and each was able to make a fresh and unique take on it and make it their own, and that while very different, they are equally impressive and fantastic.
Originally done by Judy Garland in the movie Wizard of OZ.August 25, 1939.
Hey Guys. I didn´t see you in a while. But here you pick one of my favorite songs of all times. 😃 The original from Judy and the IZ Versions. But i prefer from IZ the Somewhere over the Rainbow/ Wondeful World Medley more the only the one Song.
Break out the tissues. ✌️
IZ's hit came out in 1993...so way over a decade ago💯😏.
RIP to this gifted artist🌺🏝🌈🌦🍍🥭🥥🎶.
As a man married to a native Hawaiian the name is pronounced : Ka-Maka-Vee-Vo-Olay however most people just call him Iz aka Hawaiian Superman
Had the pleasure of watching him & another Hawaiian artist, Keali'i Reichel, perform in San Jose, California many, many years ago
He is a treasure to the Kānaka Maoli of the islands.
And yes there are boat loads of wild feral chickens running all over the place 😂😂😂
This song is the just the complete epitome of encapsulating good, loving, and positive vibes. I would love to see yall start to branch out to check out some reggae, mainly some more new-age stuff. Bands like Slightly Stoopid, Stick Figure, Iration, Dirty Heads, Hirie, etc. Reggae music is just so positive and chill and I think yall would dig that stuff! Love the channel and keep it up guys!
Love stick figure and iration!! Do you like the movement or SOJA or Tanya Stephens?? Good one by SOJA is "rest of my life" and by Tanya Stephens is "it's a pitty".
Originally done by Judy Garland in the movie Wizard of OZ.
He called the recording studio guy at 2:30 am he opened up for him and he did this song in one take.
It’s actually been over 20 years ago but still a beautiful song
Mahalo IZ!
First saw this version about 25 yrs ago when I was doing some hospice work and we had to "plan our funeral" as part of the training... this was and still is one of my funeral songs... just beautiful... RIP IZ
Kuh-MAH-ka VEE-vo OH-lay
I cried too.
If I'm not mistaken, I do believe IZ was one of only 3 people to lie in state at the capitol building in Hawai'i. Also, another song that y'all should check out is from Disney's short Lava. I'm not sure who sings it, but it's such a beautiful little song that I think y'all will love. ♥
This is the song we should send in to outer space. We come in peace. We’re pretty cool.
Quite possibly the most beautiful song ever. Makes my eyes sweat every single time 🖤 Rest in sweet Paradise, Iz
Such a beautiful rendition of this iconic song. His change of the lyrics throws me off, though. R.I.P. IZ
Tears are an essential part of the human experience. Despite what society has told us for so long, it takes real strength to allow oneself to feel.

You should play the version where he mixes this and A Wonderful World!!!!😊
