The singer is a young girl singing soprano with a really clear voice...she starts out with a long "oooooo ooo ooo oo oooooooo oo oo oo.." then she goes into "somewhere over the rainbow"...and ends with "what a wonderful world"...I wish I could be more specific. She goes by her regular name, first and last. I think her last name is kinda long. At some point during "what a wonderful world" she hits these excellent high notes singing " I hear Babies cry and watch them grow...." I know its a bit vague but if you have an inkling of a clue let me know. Thanks.

Was the song arranged differently? e.g. sounds slightly rnb or slower or faster?
Could the singer be Israel Kamakawiwo'ole? He did indeed record a medley of Somewhere Over the Rainbow and What a Wonderful World. She's actually a HE.
Anyway, there is a link to the wikipedia entry for somewhere over the rainbow and artist who have covered it.

That young girl is a man who died a few years ago. His name is Israel Kamakawiwo'ole or Iz for short.
That song is on his CD "Facing Future"
I got that CD from my sister who lives in Hawaii and where Izzy also lived.

Oh I heard that song, it has like a ukalaylee playing in the back ground, I heard it on my TV our local access channel was playing it, but I don't know her name so I hope you get it.

It's not a young girl, it's a hawaiian man, but I can't for my life remember his name...
Found it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_Kamakawiwo%27ole

He died like 6 yrs ago--he was actually like 300 lbs, but his voice was so sweet!

probably not who you're looking for but try Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, he sings the same two songs and they sound amazing.
