Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's simple and beautiful!

The first time I heard Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, was from the movie "Finding Forester" with Sean Connery. When I heard his version of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow," I was blown away by the simplicity of a uke and a single vocal - yes a beautiful uke and vocal! In our era of over produced music, I find it refreshing and inspiring that when it all comes down to it, we can be that simple. We just need to reach down in our inmost being and let God take over. This is my version of "How Great Thou Art." taken from my new CD "Eleven.
