Need help figuring out a song from "50 First Dates"  

post #1 of 6

I think it was the song played in the credits but its not on the sound track.

It sounds Hawaiian and some of the words are "when I wish upon a star" and some humming....I wish I could explain it better.

Can you help me find the song please?!!

It was a very unusual version of 'Somewhere over the Rainbow' made famous by Judy Garland in the movie Wizard of Oz. Then they medley'd 'Wonderful world' in there too. Quite a pretty version. Too bad it's not on the soundtrack.

This is one of my favorite songs ever, ever, ever! I first heard it in the movie Finding Forrester. Amarasmom was right about the artist, its Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, a Hawaiian artist who passed away a few years back. He did some really amazing stuff! If you want the medley of Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World you can find it on the Finding Forrester Soundtrack or you could hear some other really great Hawaiian music and get his album Facing Future. Very awesome!

I immediately knew what song you were talking about-didn't know the artist. Thank you for posting it though!!! I LOVE that song, it really is beautiful. I think I'm going to have to put the cd on my X-mas list.
