Quelque part au-dessus de l'arc en ciel, les oiseaux bleus volent
Oh pourquoi, oh pourquoi pas moi?
Yip HARBURG - Somewhere over the rainbow
Paul GAUGUIN - Maria
Influencé par l'environnement tropical et la culture polynésienne, l'œuvre a gagné en force expressive. Dans ses tableaux, il y a comme une sorte de mélancolie qui s'échappe, autour d'une situation les personnages ont des regards absents avec des attitudes dont se dégage une certaine douceur.
Illustr musicale: Isarael kAMAKAWIWO'OLE - Somewhere over the Rainbow 1993
Le but de Kamakawiwo'ole était de créer une musique qui reste fidèle au son typique de la musique hawaïenne traditionnelle. Israel Kamakawiwoʻole devient célèbre lorsque son album Facing Future est commercialisé en 1993 avec son medley, Over the Rainbow.
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
There's a land that I heard of once in a lullaby, I
Oh, somewhere over the rainbow skies are blue
Clouds high over the rainbow, makes all your dreams come true, ooh
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top
That's where you'll find me, oh
Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow
Oh why, oh why can't I? I
I see trees of green and red roses too
I'll watch then bloom just for me and you
And I think to myself
Oh, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue, clouds of white
The brightness of day, the dark, say goodnight
And I think to myself
Oh, what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shakin' hands saying, "How's it? How you?"
They're really saying, "I love you"
I hear babies cry and I'd watch them grow
They'll learn much more than we'll know
And I think to myself
Oh, what a wonderful world
I think to myself, yes
What a wonderful world
I think to myself, yeah
What a wonderful world
Oh, what a wonderful world it is
