Oh, my. Isn't she an amazing voice. Such a sad story. Somewhere Over The Rainbow has always been one of my all time favorite songs. Like everyone else, I grew up believing that no one would ever sing it like Judy Garland. Then I heard Eva's version. It was so beautiful that I cried and I still do every time I hear her sing it. I became a fan that day.

Its amazing how well those long ago recordings hold up. I can only imagine how glorious those songs would sound had they been recorded with today's technology.

This is my favorite version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow, it was performed by Judy Garland in the middle of the war in 1943.
