On June 29, 2026 art the funeral service for legendary music producer Clive Davis at Manhattan Central Synagogue in New York City, Rabbi Angela Buchdahl told the audience that she learned from Davis’s children that the song their father most admired that he had no hand in producing or promoting was the Yip Harburg-Harold Arlen classic “Over the Rainbow” (from The Wizard of Oz, 1939). She then sang the song (her intro and performance are at 3min30sec of this YouTube video.)
