Actually, I think the actual singer is "cuter" as her talent makes up for any minor flaws in her face. Not unlike "Conny" http://www.videosift.com/video/Six-Year-Old-Conny-Sings-Somewhere-Over-The-Rainbow

The one chosen by the official bugs at me the way Jon Benet's parents do whenever I see a picture of her all painted up "5 going on 25". *shudders*

There be some yucky things going on in the politburo I think..

the song is "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", not sure who's singing it. Willie Nelson maybe?

The movie is awesome. If anyone knows where I can get the Mach Pelican cover of 'over the rainbow' that's played there, okease do tell.

He doesn't get the lyrics wrong, he melds two songs together... so not wrong, his interpretation of them... beautiful. The greatest version of 'Over the Rainbow' ever.

And gawd dangit... while the song no longer makes me tear up, seeing that many people there showing that much love for the man as his ashes are scattered, that did it... argh... to have touched people like that, he may have died an untimely death due to his weight, but man he made an impact with what life he lived.

Just beautiful, beautiful. I love his version of 'Over the Rainbow' (which has Wonderful World mixed with it, not wonderful life)...

It's sad to see his size though, as that is what took him from us far, far too early.

I believe this counts as a dupe: http://www.videosift.com/video/Six-Year-Old-Conny-Sings-Somewhere-Over-The-Rainbow

Fixed!

Man I love me some Eva Cassidy. Her version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow is one of the only ones I really love. Some other great songs of hers are "Wade in the Water" and "Ain't no sunshine"

Found this while dupe-posting. See for more info (and a live-action video version instead of slideshow):
