Somewhere of the Rainbow to a photo, and video from my trips to Israel
I love the part where Judy Garland is sitting and interacting with the dog. I wanted to preserve the sound clip to the original sound track to the movie clip, but seems that I missed it by a few milliseconds. Sounded much better on my movie editor.
Did you know that “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” was written, not about the mythical Land of Oz but, the homeland of the Jewish people?
The lyrics were written by Yip Harburg, the youngest of four children born to Russian-Jewish immigrants. His real name was Isidore Hochberg, and he grew up in a Yiddish-speaking, Orthodox Jewish home in New York. The song’s music was written by Harold Arlen, also a cantor’s son. His real name was Hyman Arluck, and his parents were from Lithuania.
Together, Hochberg and Arluck wrote “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” which was voted the 20th century’s No. 1 song by the Recording Industry Association of America and the National Endowment for the Arts
In writing it, the two men reached deep into their immigrant Jewish consciousness — framed by the pogroms of the past and the Holocaust about to happen — and wrote an unforgettable melody set to near prophetic words.
“And the dreams that you dare to dream / Really do come true.”.
