Patti LaBelle sings her iconic version of Over The Rainbow for president Barack Obama live at the White House on March 2014 as part of the Divas of Soul concert. LaBelle first recorded the song for her 1966 album entitled Somewhere Over The Rainbow.
The song originally performed by a 17 year old Judy Garland for the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. The Harold Arlen song, with lyrics by Yip Harburg, received the Academy Award for Best Original Song and became the signature song for Garland.
