Facing Future
There's a smart balance of traditional Hawaiiana and contemporary tunes on this CD. There's heart-tugging warmth along with unexpected chuckles. The end result is a candid, honest reinforcement of his vocal breadth. more

What a voice!
I bought this CD because it had some of the highest reviews I've seen while being a regular Amazon customer. How could by far the largest majority of reviewers give this CD a five star rating without it being an exceptional CD? Thank you reviewers for taking the time to review this CD! Now,...

IZ voice of the people
hi from the beautiful land of Italy I think Israel Kamakawiwo'ole ( the fearless eyes the bold face) had a magic touch in his voice and in the way he was able to improvise and rearrange all the songs he sang. the story behind the medley that changed the world is quite interesting ..it is on his...

Facing Future
I had never heard of the late Israel Kamakawiwo'ole until the track "What A Wonderful World/ Over The Rainbow was recently played on the radio. This man's voice is truly amazing.

The cd is awesome. The condition I received it in was not so good. the case was completely destroyed, I was surprised and thankful that the cd was unharmed. I would think the packaging would be a little more secure.

Ethereal Voice
My liddle bruddah'--oops, slipped right into the Island Patois there! If you love music as I do and prefer the truly gifted artists over the mass produced pap crowding the airwaves, get any of IZ's cds. I find that they get played when I need to concentrate, when I need to relax, when I need to...

Beautiful sounds
I was introduced to Brudda IZ by hearing his version of "Over the Rainbow / What a Wonderful World" on "Coast to Coast AM" one night. At first I was not sure if I really liked his arrangement but I could not get the tune out of my head. I looked for and found his music on "Amazon" and have one of...

Over the rainbow
The Hawaiian music is interesting but not my thing. I bought it for Iz's rendition of "Over the Rainbow" which is second to none. The sound is haunting and stays with you all day.

Sends me right back to the beaches of Hawaii
I was recently bitten by the "Hawaii bug" during my first trip to Hawaii. I fell in love with the magnificent landscapes, the warm and friendly people and the beautiful culture. I bought this CD the minute I got home (after hearing "Over the Rainbow" played so often during our visit). It never...

Soothing to the soul
This is a wonderful CD. He has taken some classic songs and changed the wording to fit Hawaii. I have a special place in my heart for Hawaii so I really liked that. An added benefit is my toddler always relaxes when I play it. I have also used this to teach yoga classes with. I just wish he...

IZ Music
It was an good CD, but I thought it had the best hits from Israel Kamakawiwo'ole. The customer service from the store was great, sending on time and in perfect condition, I just didn't like the CD.
