At this time (1939) in Hollywood, it was considered "Your Song" when you introduced a song in a movie. That code of ethics held true for the next 20 + years before anyone tried to sing Judy's song and offer it in another movie. This song is considered by many musicians to be THE perfect song!
I was born in the late fall of 1978.Ihave many favorite movies! However, the 1939 MGM Beautiful, Brilliant, Charmig, Classic, Clever, Delightful, Iconic, Intelligent, Magical, Marvelous, Perfectly Cast, Spectacular, Outstanding, Timeless Uplifting, Fantasy Musical Movie, The Wizard of Oz is my favorite movie ever since I first saw at age 2 and1/2! This Movie is in a class by itself! The Best Recording of the Academy Award Winning, Beautiful, Uplifting Song Over the Rainbow Ever!
Over The Rainbow belongs for all time to Judy Garland. Although many singers have performed it over the decades, this song Judy's, There was never and will never be anyone else like her.
Yeah the only person that was truly able to do this justice was IZ, simply because he didn't try to outsing Judy, he just put his heart on his ukele and delivered a performance where we can feel his heart, as much as we felt Judy's soul. Most people don't get that this song is not about belting or using range, it's about being able to pass genuine emotions, and that's why even incredible singers fall short trying to sing this.
This song makes me cry today. She is so beautiful and looks like a lullaby at the same time, there's something melancholy. What melody more lovely, what a fantastic letter, that makes us dream ... the sweet voice of Judy Garland is perfect, and this time, the film, she was a teenager 16-17 years. It's beautiful movie. This song is one of my themes. Loved to hear and review this short excerpt from the film.
And just when the New York office wanted Shirley Temple instead for starters because she was the # 1 draw for starters. Judy Nailed it beautifully and became a much bigger star than Shirley Temple with the help of that voice.. How about that New York office?
The song has so much more meaning knowing how difficult her life became as she grew up in the movie industry, never really having a life of her own. Yes, she owned this song, and so many more.
Knowing how her life sadly ended this song brings a flood of tears for me. Judy. Used and abused by the people all around her, her raw talent is shown here and it's very sad.
She did not want to be remembered that way, so please just focus on the beautiful work she did and the actual good times she really did have in her life.
@@MaskedMan66 Judy had a great sense of humor despite her heartbreaks, she once said "I had no problem playing opposite Margaret Hamilton as the wicked witch, i grew up with the original wicked witch so..."
@@haintedhouse2990 She had a great sense of humor, period. She always had it, long before her heartbreaks, so they're irrelevant to her sense of humor.
Still one of the 5 greatest American films of all-time. Judy had a lot to do with that, of course, and remains now and will continue to be the most indelible icon of music in American history.
Truuuuuuue I'm obbses with this moive one time I played this moive at 4:00am after breakfast played itt aging saw this moive when I was about 2 I think
Incredibly gifted. To possess that much deep, rich resonance, power AND control at such a young age is extremely rare. By far, one of the greatest vocal performances of all time.
Oft imitated. Never duplicated. The incredible talent of young Miss Garland. Somehow she is even more beautiful in sepia tones. “ I can see clearly now, the rain gone, it’s going to be a bright sunshiny day “
let's not get carried away, it's ONE of the best movies of all time and it's still one of my favorites but the best of all time? i couldn't begin to choose one movie for that title.
Notice how Judy NEVER blinks...in spite of the intense lighting required to photograph in Technicolor. Quite an amazing skill to fight that urge, and concentrate on the scene instead.
Terry the female Brindle Cairn Terrier who portrayed Toto is Brilliant! The 1939 MGM Beloved, Beautiful, Brilliant, Classic, Clever, Delightful, Fantastic, Excellent, Grand, Iconic, Marvelous, Perfect, Perfectly Cast, Splendid, Superb, Outstanding, Wonderful, Fantasy Musical Movie is in a class by itself!
Whenever i listen to this song, it just reminds me of how tragic and difficult Judy Garland’s Hollywood lifestyle was like to her. All those photos of her smiling with pleasure, was just a strategy to cover up the severe pain that she had to go through, and all of the hard barriers that she had to strictly face. It’s just so upsetting that she had to go through all of that. Her voice was so angelical and beautiful. She really deserved better. 🙁
She did not want to be remembered that way, so please just focus on the beautiful work she did and the actual good times she really did have in her life.
Judy Garland had perfect pitch & did this scene in one take! She never missed any of her lines throughout the movie,that's why a lot of actors had trouble working with her ... Judy couldn't understand why the older more experienced actors could've say their lines in one take & move on to the next... even with our technology of today,her voice & the movie soundtrack have been compared & she is note for note with the musical instruments ..not 95% not 99.9%- 100% on track with the instruments. Even when she got older & had her own t.v. show, when she sang with a band or orchestra.. she never missed a note! And again in all the movies she did, she did her lines in one take! Her untimely death was caused in part by the drugs that her producers & directors were making her take to keep up with her scheduling.. they couldn't get enough of Judy's perfect singing voice..& eventually the very thing that made her a star in the first place, her amazing talented singing voice, is what led to her destruction..the intense pressure she was under & the pills she was taking just to keep up with the demand for her talent is what killed her!
As a small child the first song I ever found all by myself to like was this one. Nobody else brought it to me and told me it was good. Nobody tried to teach it to me. It was MY song. I loved it. It meant something to ME. Still does.
You can believe or not but this movie is the most soothing for mentally handicapped people and the mentally ill in my opinion. I worked group homes and mental facilities for years and it always calmed the people down. It has always been my number one movie throughout my life. There is something about it that is so special but I can never put my finger on it.
Many recording artists have done their own versions of this song but none, and I mean NONE of them can match the warm and emotion this teenager put into that iconic song. It's too bad she couldn't have somehow maintained the beauty and magic she exuded The Wizard of Oz, instead of getting caught up in all the "Hollyweird" lifestyle and behind the scenes BS that went with, and still goes, with it.
The Adorable, Extremely Talented, Very Intelligent, Rey Funny, Very Pretty 15-year-old Judy Garland was very happy prerecording all the songs for the movie and was very happy at 15 and early 16 during the entire filming of the movie! She was not addicted to drugs at the time and enjoyed making the movie very much!
Marilu quieres conocer a una chica tan increíble como esta, y es de ahora,yo se que no lo crees ,pero cuando la conoscas no te vas a olvidar nunca de este día, es extraordinaria, no hay en el mundo entero nadie como ella.
Kudos for sharing this quality audio with us. I listened to it with ear phones...and was magically transported into the recording studio with Judy...I have never heard it with this clarity, sounding as though she was singing it for the first time...love it!
@@babyj.7793 SAME. She went through too much in her life, on top of being called UGLY instead of beautiful... :( (If time travel's ever possible one day, I'm travelling back in time to hug Judy telling her she was beautiful and none of those AWFUL things those MGM idiots and her own WITCH of a so-called "mom" said about her being UGLY were NOT true, and tell her the whole part of how I look up to her as an idol!
@Lend me a ciggie would ya mate? I know, exactly, she was always so beautiful, (and I've always loved her as Dorothy), she was NEVER ugly, the idiots who called her that were the ones who were VERY ugly. It's awful and so sad how she was treated and how nobody was there for her, I too wish I could go back in time, I'd be her friend, and tell her how much of a huge fan I am of her and tell her how much I look up to her and tell her don't even listen to those jerks that called her ugly and tell her she was always beautiful.
For some reason, this song resonates with me today. It seems to fit the times we are living in. Listening to it made me weep a little, and I am not an emotional person ordinarily.
By the time Garland recorded " Zing ! Went The Strings Of My Heart " for Decca Records in July 1939 , she was on the verge of major stardom . During the same two - day session , the singer also recorded " Over The Rainbow , " a new Harold Arlen - Yip Harburg composition from the soon to be released MGM musical The Wizard Of Oz . The film would become a Hollywood classic . The song became the cornerstone of Garland's legend . It won the Academy Award for Best Song and Garland won a special " juvenile " mini - Oscar® for her performance as Dorothy Gale , the little Kansas farm girl who is caught in a cyclone and blown over the rainbow to the magical land of Oz . In the wake of the film's success , the story became a metaphor for Garland's newfound stardom .
Even at the tender age of 16, Judy Garland became known as the "One-take Wonder", never needing a second take on any song she recorded. Movie scenes were entirely different though.
Judy Garland was only16 during the entire filming of the MGM Classic Timeless, Fantasy y Musical Movie, The Wizard of Oz, not 17. Judy Garland prerecorded all of the songs for The Wizard of Oz in the Eary part of 1938. The movie was primarily filmed in 1938 and was finished filming the third week of February 1939. Judy Garland first recorded Zing Went the Stings of My Heart in 1936that was then broadcast on the radio at age 13. Judy Garland then prerecorded the song Zing Went the Strings of My Heart in early April for the 1938 MGM movie MGM movie, Listen Darling, as Pinky Wingate! Judy Garland didn't turn 17 until June10, 1939!
Judy would have been 100 years old this June, maybe we should hold a celebration of her life? God only knows how much the film studio destroyed hers. 22nd June 1922 R.I.P. I had the pleasure of meeting (dating) Liza Minnelli January 1977 N.Y.C.

I've been looking for one safe place that I'll never find, I thought I found it in abuse but like Judy Garland, that just makes it worse. I guess only when your in heaven with God is the only place, I'll see u soon Judy, loved & missed forever.
i am really really sad for her she was an angel and i don't know why but i love this woman so much this angel doesn't deserve any of what came to her head i hope she is in somewhere good now and she is happy
Thanks. Somewhere Over The Rainbow を歌うシ―ンは、この、ミュージカル映画の、見どころの一つですね。映画音楽の定番、にもなっています。素晴らしい歌曲です。 観終わった時の感想は、この、ミュージカル映画が、一大、芸術作品に仕上がっている事です。才能集団の作品を、観ました。映画ビジネスで、お金を取れる人って、このような人達を言うのですね。ハリウッド映画を擁する、米國は、世界一の映画大国ですね。
It also depends on context. Iz's version sounds much more happy than the original and creates a different emotion. I like the original better because I like old-timey music.
Thank you. The Audio Is clear and the dynamic range is full.., but the volume levels vary wildly. Nonetheless I enjoyed it very much. I never tire of hearing this version.
How can a 17- year-old sound so mature like an old lady I like this original version a lot but just couldn't believe she was only a teen when she recorded this..
By this time she lived 5 lives and must have seen some crazy stuff in vaudeville. Imagine no child labor laws, and if there were who was following them?
She already filmed a few musical films by that time and in all of them so mature. Girl was singing dancing acting non-stop since she was able to mouth a sound. So much work that she was doped up high on ampfetamins by the time was no longer a kid😪
Ouf! Inoubliable chanson, inoubliable Judy! Merci de me rappeler ce trésor qui a fait parti de mon enfance, même si c'est "américain". Quelle voix! Quel film! Salutations à toi Max!
Voted the number one song of the twentieth century thanks to Judy Garland. She truly is a legend.
❤this is so beautiful😢❤
With all my honesty, I've heard this song sang by many singers but no one nails it as Judy Garland did. What a powerful and emotional voice 😌

Nobody's been trying to match it, they've just been singing it. Nothing wrong with that.

Completely agree.
@@marcosc9130 IZ messed it up by cutting and pasting the lyrics to where they didn't even make sense.
Judy is somewhere over the rainbow 🌈 what an angel she was. I always get sad or emotional listening to her. I'm just nostalgic. I love her so much 😢
Igualmente no se porque me da tristeza 😢

Still one of the 5 greatest American films of all-time. Judy had a lot to do with that, of course, and remains now and will continue to be the most indelible icon of music in American history.
To this day, the "Ruby Slippers" from the movie are considered the "Holy Grail" of Hollywood memorabilia!
still the best version
She sounded so angelic and mesmerizing❤😇
May she Rest In Peace in a better place ❤🕊
A better place indeed!!!!!
Perfect Movie Magic!
A voice that was made to sing...oh why was that rainbow so elusive...Love you Frances/Judy ❤🌹🙋♀️

Somewhere Over The Rainbow を歌うシ―ンは、この、ミュージカル映画の、見どころの一つですね。映画音楽の定番、にもなっています。素晴らしい歌曲です。 観終わった時の感想は、この、ミュージカル映画が、一大、芸術作品に仕上がっている事です。才能集団の作品を、観ました。映画ビジネスで、お金を取れる人って、このような人達を言うのですね。ハリウッド映画を擁する、米國は、世界一の映画大国ですね。
Iz busted out a damn fine version, but it doesn"t beat Judy"s version.
It also depends on context. Iz's version sounds much more happy than the original and creates a different emotion. I like the original better because I like old-timey music.
This is ur song judy we love u
I wish animals could live forever 🐕
They do in Heaven.
Thank you. The Audio Is clear and the dynamic range is full.., but the volume levels vary wildly. Nonetheless I enjoyed it very much. I never tire of hearing this version.
Wunderbar...........
How can a 17- year-old sound so mature like an old lady I like this original version a lot but just couldn't believe she was only a teen when she recorded this..
Actually, she was sixteen when she recorded this.
She sounds more like 35, but not an old lady.
By this time she lived 5 lives and must have seen some crazy stuff in vaudeville. Imagine no child labor laws, and if there were who was following them?
She already filmed a few musical films by that time and in all of them so mature. Girl was singing dancing acting non-stop since she was able to mouth a sound. So much work that she was doped up high on ampfetamins by the time was no longer a kid😪
Its not possible, she had help, from over the rainbow..
Melancolia total 😢😢😢
No, just wistfulness. 🙂
Wow, very sad movie 😢, tragic journey of life, very beautiful woman and talented
This isn't a sad movie!
@@MaskedMan66 i mean the movie version, the journey of her life, not this video
@@im__Anonymous You said, "very sad movie"; since this clip is from _The Wizard of Oz,_ that's naturally the movie I thought you meant.
@@MaskedMan66 naah, what i meant, after watching the movie "Judy" 2019, wow it's sad
@@im__Anonymous I gather from Judy's daughter Lorna that it's full of errors.
Still very significant !
Ouf! Inoubliable chanson, inoubliable Judy! Merci de me rappeler ce trésor qui a fait parti de mon enfance, même si c'est "américain". Quelle voix! Quel film! Salutations à toi Max!
