When I was in cardiac rehab they used to play a Hawaiian version of Over
the Rainbow. It was such a lovely, smooth sounding version of the song.
I Googled it and was surprised to see the guy who sang it because it
seemed ironic that the music at a workout like that would be sung by
someone who was so enormously fat. Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwo'ole weighed in
at about 750 lb. and died at the age of 38 of weight related problems.
Hell of a singer.
