I've been looking for the title of this song for many years now.  Occasionally I would get it stuck in my head but I could never remember the words nor how the actual melody went.  I do remember hearing it a few times and liking it.  The few times in my life that I did hear it I never actually made an effort to try and learn the title or artist. 

So I was watching TV around 7 o-clock last night and I heard the melody part that I have a hard time remembering on a Rice Krispies commercial.  With the advent of the internet and google I was able to punch it in a get an answer to my question thats been bugging me for years.  Israel Kamakawio'ole's Somewhere over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World. 

It's odd I know that I would even admit to liking such a...  "Effeminate" song.  But has that ever happened to you where you wanted to describe or tell someone else about something but you can't remember enough of it yourself to even try giving details.  In the past I tried telling my wife about this song in hopes that she might know what it was.  But, for the life of my I just couldn't get the melody right.  I knew I liked it but I couldn't remember what it was that I liked.  How strange the human condition is.

This is where I got the info I was looking for from.

This is a link to the song's website.

In OT, comparing me to LJS is like comparing a domestic dog to a wild wolf... I'm not worthy! :cry:

The man is a legend and was gifted with an amazing voice so there is certainly no shame in liking his music. Some of the most beautiful songs you can hear from the man are the recordings of him singing to his wife over the phone which he did often when he was on tour.

WOW!  I've only been gone for a few hours and I'm quite amazed at the responses.  Thank you all.  This OT board is the best I've ever encountered.

I had no idea that this artist had since passed.  I'm just gonna throw this out there...  Maybe someone could possible make a smiley version of him.  No?

In regards to Tiny Dancer.  Doesn't he sometimes sound like he's saying.  "Hold me closer Tony Danza"?  It's that guy from Who's the Boss.

I'm staying on this board.  I will never close this window.  Awesome.
