I love you, IZ. I'm and old man bed ridden remembering my youth raised in Iaia, Ohau. Your voice brings love and peace to all.
Awww....so sorry to hear that Michael. 😢 What a beautiful thing for you to be taken away from your bed to a time and place where you were happy and free if only for a short time ♥️
Love you brother, stay strong. One day at a time.
Aiea?
Oahu?
Peace and love being sent to you from here brother
Incredible artist, voice of an Angel! You left this world to soon young man, much to soon, we need you!
No anxiety, no fear, no stress… only peace while this song plays
spot on

Every once in a while, I "discover" a singer with an incredible voice and endless charisma, like Israel. I think, how did I never know about this person? I was so sorry to learn that he had also passed. I can easily picture him in heaven, on a white, sandy beach, singing and laughing with his friends. What better music for the hereafter?
I have a ring tone of Izzy singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow, which I love. One day at work, I had forgotten to turn my phone off, and I was in another room when a call came in and another employee hunted me down. He said, "Your phone is going off, with someone butchering 'Somewhere . . ." I really wanted to knock this guy down. But, I figured he was 2:49 so ignorant and sheltered that he had never heard a different version of that song, he was beyond trying to educate.
Israel was a precious gift to the world, who was gone so soon.
I thank his family, friends and others who make sure we can still enjoy this gift. Now, I'm going to listen to "White Sandy Beach" again . . . .
Aloha, Izzy, rest in peace. 😢❤❤
Amen
I've never seen anyone still be singing wearing an oxygen tank wow amazing singing and dedication much love to you and all of Hawaii people ❤️❤️👍
Dedication? I love this dude but let’s be real, if he had dedication to his music he would have lost weight. The guy is enormous.
He was dedicated to kalua pork
@Juan Villanueva dude...music is what kept this man alive. I know that. He lived for his music, and it made a very positive impact on his mental health. He would have been gone much sooner without his music.
@@Tovek Take a look at his entire family; all died young and all were large. Perhaps there was a genetic issue? It's not for us to judge.
He did it for years
What a beautiful artist. Israel has helped many people have a better day. His voice is definitely from GOD.
I will never tire of listening to this angel's voice..
“Hey man this song goes like this “
Anyone one else find that funny how casually and nonchalant he said that before playing one of the best most emotional performances ever? Also the contrast with his regular talking voice and singing voice ?
What an amazing timeless performance
His voice can take you to a place that he is imaging in his song.
Never get tired of hearing IZ sing. Such a smooth, silky voice. This is my favorite of all.
Such a beautiful voice! Iz might have left the Earth in presence, but he hasn’t left in soul.
Crying like a toddler, while holding my toddler. I've been singing it to him since he was born... four surgeries later, including heart... it's become his favorite song. Even gets the ukulele to play along...
I cry like a baby everytime I here him.
@@margarethayes8982 feel you
💕💕💕
I would cry if someone that size sat on me.
@@PeugeotRocket OMG! Little thingy thought of a joke... and a pretty lame one! Mom´s gonna be proud... or disappointed! Go upstairs and tell papa what a wise wonder you are. Just keep the real subject a secret, they might not give you cookies.
IZ had a lot of love that's why he needed a big body to contain it! He didn't want people to be sad when he was gone. We have his music and videos forever. BE HAPPY!!! 🤟
"White Sandy Beach" is my favorite.
Nah you didn't make me tear up
His eyes show his illness but bro pulled it together and sounded awesome RIP with Jesus my brother.
This performance gives me chills like no other. Seeing such a beautiful human with the voice of an Angel struggling near the end of his life affects you deep in the core. This man’s beautiful soul and voice captured forever in this beautiful video. Rock on IZ, you are still such an inspiration to so many; the voice of Angel, straight from the heavens.
He’s singing in heaven
you know how famous you are in Hawaii when you have that many female dancers on stage!! RIP IZ
one of my favorite songs. makes me tear up every time
Whats truly magnificent is that he doesn’t let it stop him. His health conditions. It doesn’t stop him from doing what he loves. You can see the emotion he puts into the song. Just. Beautiful.
I'm a level headed 53 year old woman who unfortunately for me had never heard of IZ or his beautiful voice and songs while he was still alive, but I do have them now thanks to the wonderful people who posted various videos of him singing and/or videos of his singing accompanied in most cases by various pictures of him!! I hope all of the proceeds from all videos posted of IZ are going to a good cause in/on the islands of Hawaii to help those there who need help and not someone using his gorgeous gift for their own monetary gain, unless the poster\s is/are family who have the RIGHT to use his recordings as they see fit.
I basically came here meaning to say that although I never saw or knew IZ while he was alive I just KNOW he was an awesome, amazing, loving and giving person. One reason I know this, is because I do not fawn over or feel really much of any kind of connection to famous people, as they are no different then the rest of us, yet I never knew IZ and I just KNOW and I do feel an enormous love for him but also from him, and NO I am not a loon, It's just sometimes people leave a small or big trace of who they were behind, and I think he left an enormous hole, lack of his presence where he once was, as well as an enormously abundant amount of love, and it has an affect on me in a good way of course.
That is the only way and the only words I can think of to explain/describe what I experience whenever I think of him and/or his music and/or what little I know about his life!!
May GOD rest and keep his soul!!!
I second every word you wrote. You have a fantastic sensitivity which is also a wonderfull gift. I hope you can treasure that too. Best wishes . Scorpion John
These songs are my therapy 😌😌😌
ME DA TRISTEZA RECIEN EN ESTE 2023 DESCUBRI ESTA VOZ MARAVILLOSA Y ES UNA PENA QUE YA SE HAYA IDO, SIENDO TAN JOVEN . NO ME CANSO DE OIR SUS CANCIONES. QUIERA DIOS QUE ESTE ALLA, CANTANDOLE CON SUS ANGELES.😊
Gosh I miss Israel IZ!!! That voice, he melts my heart and he's simply so soothing, rest well in heaven you beautiful man, inside and out, thank you for your beautiful music which we at least will forever continue to listen to and remember you by always.🧡🧡🙏🏻🙏🏻
I first came across a video on here of IZ singing Over The Rainbow about 10 years ago. I spent most of the day playing the video over and over. His voice and the song really spoke to my heart. I've since watched every video I could find of him. Today I came across a video I'd never seen before "Remembering "IZ" Israel Kamakawiwo'ole June 26th, 1997". I cried my heart out. Such an awesome man with an honest and true heart who touched the hearts of millions. He was an inspiration to the people of Hawaii and loved his heritage, his people and his culture. We should all aspire to be like him. To love everyone. R.I.P IZ. You will never be forgotten. Today you walk among the angels.
Some where over the rainbow
Unbelievable voice.. it’s so beautiful to listen to all of his songs… makes me wanna go to Hawaii and live the best life I could
Put it on the bucket list. Then go!
An angel sent to earth straight from the source. Rest in peace, love and power brother from another mother.
Here in August of 23 thinking about those poor souls who lost their lives in the fire
Его пение-бальзам на душу, как дуновение ветерка в райских кущах.
My first time hearing this song and we love Hawaii. We were married in Maui in 2006 on the beach and it will forever be in our hearts and this song just shows the real beauty of IZ and Hawaii. ❤️😊
I have always loved IZ music as a kid his music calmed me. Much love from South Africa 🇿🇦.
One of the Greatest Voices ever! I NEVER tire of listening to IZ. I love watching Hot Hawaiian Nights with IZ over and over. Never forgotten ❤
Great song great singer
My Body was filled with "Funkles" when IZ sang the first note, hanging on every breath IZ sings!!
My God... what a beautiful song, what an enlightened soul. May you be well and happy in the eternal abode, IZ.
Sometimes it's so easy to find the right word - BEAUTIFUL
Lost my brother last week and this song really makes me sad and happy 😊
Я всем сердцем с тобой,я знаю,что это за потеря,я знаю эту боль-в июле я потеряла младшую сестренку,это такая пустота,осталась только в сердце и памяти,пока мы есть🙏🙌💕
Por Dios IZ... Cómo te extrañamos en éste valle de lágrimas, que es el mundo....
2022... Y aún elevas mi ser con tu voz... Estoy seguro que ahora, ya caminas de la mano con tu madre con tu padre y tus hermanos, en una bellísima playa de arenas blancas... Ya no debes soñar... Ahora estás presente con ellos...
A beautiful spirit expressed in music.... Heaven's gift to IZ... a gift to all of us.
I just discovered this song today and i love somewhere over the rainbow since i was i child i must get too know this even better
Rest easy my dear brother. Your voice pleased God so much he decided to take you back home so you can sing to him up close.
im craing
He was quite ill at this point. He passed 3 months after this concert at the age of 38 from respiratory failure and other comorbid complications leaving behind his wife and 14 yo daughter at the time. Thankfully he will live on forever.💕💕💕

You are right 😂
@@David-qy7ge I know🥰
Well, what can you expect when you take such poor care of yourself?
He had the voice of an angel! He was beautiful, inside and out. What a beautiful soul! Thank you and God Bless you IZ! We love you!
Linda música, assim como todas as composições e interpretações de IZ, a qual remete à paz em nossos corações. Que pena que você nos deixou tão cedo, IZ! Que a suavidade de sua voz faça coro aos anjos do paraíso!
Lovely voice..
Such a beautiful fluffy man. Wish he was around for such movies that exalt his culture.
Le jour où il a quitté ce monde il a probablement chanter ses plus belles chansons quant il était devant les portes du paradis là Dieu a écouté ses belles chansons et il lui ouvert les portes et l'a accueilli en son paradis, soit heureux là où tu es maintenant IZ ❤❤
I dont know why i just cried to the sound of this mans voice
Not that im complaining its so peaceful and made me feel safe somehow
Seriously!!!
@@stephenchinsammy4080 I ah uh umnnn mm
Просто божественно и слова не нужны душа летит))
I first heard of IZ was when I was with a Hawaiian dance group ears ago.. So sorry that he passed long ago, what a beautiful voice he had.
I love this. First time I've ever heard this guy, almost brought a tear to my eyes. He would have been almost the same age as me if he was still alive. Hard to think that I was just getting married and this guy was just passing away. Don't know why? But just brought loads of memories flooding into my head listening to this. Beautiful song and fantastic voice!
Can't believe this video was uploaded only 8 days ago.. This is what I envision Hawaii to be in my mind.. IZ ♡ pure heartfelt singing, ukulele and traditional dancing.. this type of authenticity is gone now, music is no longer just about culture, its about making worldwide hits... Still, after only 8 days this has over 35K Views.. this gives me such great belief again in what people really want=♡
Mahalo for these words. I am a 14 year old and I've been listening to IZ for a year now. Every single day. He was a wonderful soul.
Do you envision it full of people heavier than a refrigerator? 😂
@@PeugeotRocket My man, inappropriate. You can laugh all you want but at the end of the day at least IZ will have a place in history, even if its just as a person with a beautiful voice. No ones gonna remember you a hundred years from now, so I guess what I'm saying is being heavy didn't stop this man from giving downright to the world. Maybe try to emulate that instead of being disrespectful?
@@NottherealLucifer Yes, I can laugh all I want and nothing you say will change that I found what I said to be funny. Place in history or not, dude's life was cut short due to poor lifestyle choices and there is nothing wrong with joking about that.
@@PeugeotRocket I just don't understand why people like you feel the need to post and voice negative stuff. It really makes you feel good to say stupid useless none constructive things? Regardless of his weight he had an amazing voice and seemed to be a very kind person. I don't care how beautiful or how rich you are the true measure of a person is how one treats others.
Beautiful man with a beautiful voice RIP
Amazing amazing voice amazing man it's so sad that he just couldn't lose the weight, he probably still be alive today..😢
A man who gives everything he has until he can give no more, an inspiration for the rest of us...
Beautiful ❤️ Iz's voice ALWAYS makes me well up 🥰❤️
I just saw "IZ" in reels, now I'm in love of this song.
What a beautiful peaceful voice. Angels do exist. See you in heaven IZ. Hebrews 13:2 Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
This is my current favorite song. He has such a love for his music, his state and his audience.
Try his "somewhere over the Rainbow"
Iz voice is just so relaxing and just invokes so much pleasant thoughts and aspirations
What a beautiful soul!
I heard his voice in a youtube short, it bought me straight to searching for him, very very talented man and a great voice.
I have to say that you are one of my most favorite singers. I love you Izzy!
I love IZ. It’s so sad we lost we lost such a wonderful soul, with an amazing voice.
A legend with time forever to come.
So much passion.
What a voice!
Your voice brings love and peace to all!
What a absolutely lovely song. ♥️♥️
I wanna give this man a hug
Never saw or heard this song before .. I will add this to my shows. Songs like this deserve to be played.
I saw you in my dream
We were walking hand in hand
On a white sandy beach of Hawaii
We were playing in the sun
We were having so much fun
On a white sandy beach of Hawaii
The sound of the ocean
Soothes my restless soul
Sound of the ocean
Rocks me all night long
Those hot long summer days
Lying there in the sun
On a white sandy beach of Hawaii
The sound of the ocean
Soothes my restless soul
The sound of the ocean
Rocks me all night long
Last night in my dream
I saw your face again
We were there in the sun
On a white sandy beach
Ooh-ooh, of Hawaii
So beautiful. I love this song. Been sung by so many.❤🎶 Evea Cassidy sings it too. Her version send tears pouring down my face! 😢 He definitely has the voice of an angel. Would love this played at my funeral it is so beautiful. ❤ God bless him and his voice. Sad he had to leave this world so early. But part of him will always be here 😇
Lyrics
I saw you in my dream
We were walking hand in hand
On a white sandy beach of Hawaii
We were playing in the sun
We were having so much fun
On a white sandy beach of Hawaii
The sound of the ocean
Soothes my restless soul
Sound of the ocean
Rocks me all night long
Those hot long summer days
Lying there in the sun
On a white sandy beach of Hawaii
The sound of the ocean
Soothes my restless soul
The sound of the ocean
Rocks me all night long
Last night in my dream
I saw your face again
We were there in the sun
On a white sandy beach
Ooh-ooh, of Hawaii
I have not cried like this since my beautiful dog of 16 years passed away in my arms, IZ is pure love.
Really great love it never gets old

A tender soul. I hope he is enjoying his white sandy beach in Heaven.

Touching with Pure True Love of Hawaii 👕👚👒🪷
Me sinto em paz ouvindo isso(me pego sorrindo sozinho!)
We miss you Braddah IZ!!
pure talent rest in peace iz.
Lost my mom almost 2 years ago. An island boy myself, and this song, like the bridge between nowness and that longed soothed soul of meeting the passed loved one.
Why has this talent never been heard in the west. I have listened to him for years, unfortunately after his death. What a talent 😢
I love when this man sang Somewhere over the Rainbow. His voice was soothing to my heart and always made me cry. 😥 May he rest in Perfect Peace Forever ! ❤️❤️
Good morning Ellen. I love the Song. Too
Bro i know im not the only want to feel the vibe but its like IZ is telling me a bedtime story
OMG What a beautiful voice you are amazing Thank-you
The best of my life .Thank you
IZ, você é e sempre será eterno, sua voz é o maior remédio para a alma ter uma paz inexplicável.
Murió??
