<p>“Someday I’ll wish upon a star<br>And wake up where the clouds are far<br>Behind me.<br>Where troubles melt like lemon drops<br>Away above the chimney tops<br>That’s where you’ll find me.</p>
<p>”E.Y.”Yip”Harbug’s hopeful lyrics made “Over the Rainbow” from the film <i>The Wizard of Oz</i> an instant favorite with 1939 audiences. The song, composed by Harold Arlen, quickly became a national standard and the signature ballad of the film’s star, Judy Garland (1922–1969).</p>
