Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - May 20, 1959 - June 26, 1997.
One of my favorite things in this world. Take 4 minutes out of your day and play it. All that is beautiful is not lost.
There may be a better version out there. I'll keep looking... Bruddah Iz, one of the last full blooded Hawaiians. The first vid gives some footage of who he was. The second has the better sound quality.
A note on the first vid: "The Hawaiʻi State Flag flew at half-staff on July 10, 1997, the day of Iz's funeral. His koa wood coffin lay in state at the Capitol building in Honolulu. Over 10,000 people attended his funeral. Thousands of fans gathered and cheered as his ashes were scattered into the Pacific Ocean at Mākua Beach on July 12, 1997."

Grand Opening of the NESW and the Common Sense gallery and the solo exhibition of
AUTOGRAPH: Sculpture and Drawing by Rob Willms.
Take some time to have a look.
Two of Mr Willms' offerings to the Muses grace our backyard, although one of his pieces has been the subject of either interactive art appreciation through the addition of coloured sidewalk chalk, or sheer philistine vandalism:
