outh Pacific is a 1949 musical with music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and book by Hammerstein and Joshua Logan. The story draws from James A. Michener's Pulitzer Prize-winning, 1948 novel, Tales of the South Pacific, weaving together characters and elements from several of its stories into a single plotline. The musical won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1950. The issue of racial prejudice was sensitively and candidly explored, particularly for the 1949 stage work.

South Pacific is generally considered to be one of the greatest musicals in history.[1][2] Several of its songs, including "Bali Ha'i," "Some Enchanted Evening," "Happy Talk", "Younger than Springtime" and "I'm in Love with a Wonderful Guy" have become worldwide standards. The Broadway production of South Pacific was nominated for ten Tony Awards and won all of them, including Best Musical, Best Score and Best Libretto. It was the only musical production ever to win all four Tony Awards for acting. The show was a critical and box office hit and has since enjoyed many successful revivals and tours and spawned a 1958 film and other adaptations..

Have just had a search and it seems to be a sample of
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - over the rainbow. He's a Hawai'ian musician. Look him up and you'll find a video. :-)
@Roman - The Thomas Newman song sounds very similar to Israel, he's portugese tho, so my guess is it's Israel as he comes from the south pacific. :-)
Such a Beautiful song!

I think this is an exclusive reproduction of BBC.
Apart from Israel Kamakawiwo there are Thomas Newman and Mago De Oz who perform this song as well. But in my opinion Israel is the best.
