Look to the Rainbow

When I was very young, my mother used to sing me Irish lullabies. For some reason, I've had one of them stuck in my head lately.

It's Look to the Rainbow from the musical Finian's Rainbow. Maybe listening to my mom sing this song is what inspired my love of musicals. Who knows.

My mother has an absolutely beautiful voice. I tried to find a video online that did justice to her rendition, but it could not be done. Below is the version by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir featuring Shane Warby. It's beautiful too but in a different way.

Listening to it brings back memories of my childhood.
