For the definitive version of ‘Over the Rainbow’ check out Eva Cassidy on You Tube. Anyone who listens to this with dry eyes has a heart of stone.
The list of wonderful songs written by Harold Arlen is long indeed.
My favorite version:
Over rthe Rainbow--Del Courtney & His Orchestra (1939)
Over the Rainbow--Vera Lynn (1940)
Speaking of rainbows...
It Always Rains Before the Rainbow--Vera Lynn (1941)
I discovered Eva Cassidy on YouTube a few months ago.
Her version of “Over the Rainbow” is indeed a treasure!
Sad she had to leave us so young.
