Somewhere over the rainbowway up highThere's a land that I've heard of onceonce in a lullabySomewhere over the rainbowskies are blueAnd the dreams that you dare to dreamReally do come trueSomeday I'll wish upon a starAnd wake up where the cloudsare far behind meWhere troubles melt like lemon dropsOh way above the chimney topsthat's where you'll find meSomewhere over the rainbow bluebirds flyBirds fly over the rainbow.Why then oh why can't I?Someday I'll wish upon a starAnd wake up where the clouds are far behind meWhere troubles melt like lemon dropsOh way above the chimney topsthat's where you'll find meSomewhere over the rainbowSkies are blueAnd the dreams that you dare to dreamReally do come trueIf happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbowWhy oh why can't I?Why oh why can't I?Why why can't I?

Maybe the best jazz rendition of the song I've ever heard.  Superb vocal style and quality!  This gal should do some big band standards.

I love most everything that Carolyn sings - she demonstrates musical prowess and vocal purity. However, this one does not work real well for me...a bit too much restraint and caution. Most anyone who enjoys CL's voice knows a good performance when heard. I find myself enjoying the MJH more than CL's vocal interpretation. All that said, Carolyn has a genuine gift of soft elegance - extreme accuracy, and sleek style. (Have a listen to Eva Cassidy's performance of this on the Live at Blues Alley.... just superb.)

I always see Carolyn as a backup vocalist on live Steely Dan videos but hearing this is wonderful. Outstanding performance by all!

As I listened to this, I could not help but thinking of the recording of the Hawaiian guy that everybody and their uncle got their panties in a wad over. The guy didn't sing the words, he didn't know the melody, he just made up crap and the unwashed sang his praises. You make a statement to that effect and they attack you like you had something against Mother Teresa. Now this was good. In fact it was excellent. Why don't people have just a little class?

A marvelous version of this beautiful song that was almost cut from "The Wizard of Oz".

Great! Another one I like is from Eva Cassidy.  Find her on YT singing live with just a guitar.

On YouTube, you can find a lot of jazzy or bluesy covers of this song. The great majority of them feature overwrought performances: vocal theatrics, excessive facial expression or body language. That's why it was a pleasure to find this simple but beautifully sung petfienance.
