Israel Kamakawiwo'ole was a musician born in Hawai which singed one of the best interpretations (in my opinion) of the song "Over the Rainbow". He died at the age of 38. The video is a tribute to him and his career as musician. Specially touching is the last part of the video where his ashes are thrown to the sea as a part of the hawaian funeral ceremony, very nice and peaceful celebration.

Israel Kamakawiwoʻole
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole fue un músico nacido en Hawai el cual cantó (a mi parecer) una de las mejores interpretaciones de las canción "Over the Rainbow". Lamentablemente falleció a los 38 años de edad. Este video es un homenaje a él y a su carrera como músico. La última parte del video es una ceremonia funeral hawaiana donde hechan sus cenizas al mare, realmente emotiva celebración de despedida.
