Over the Rainbow" is a ballad composed by Harold Arlen with lyrics by Yip Harburg.It was written for the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz and was sung by actress Judy Garland in her starring role as Dorothy Gale. It won the Academy Award for Best Original Song and became Garland's signature song.
Composer Harold Arlen and lyricist Yip Harburg often worked in tandem, Harburg generally suggesting an idea or title for Arlen to set to music, before Harburg contributed the lyrics. For their work together on The Wizard of Oz, Harburg claimed his inspiration was "a ballad for a little girl who... was in trouble and... wanted to get away from... Kansas. A dry, arid, colorless place. She had never seen anything colorful in her life except the rainbow". Arlen decided the idea needed "a melody with a long broad line".
By the time all the other songs for the film had been written, however, Arlen was feeling the pressure of not having the required song for the Kansas scene. Arlen would often carry blank pieces of music manuscript in his pockets to jot down short melodic ideas. Arlen described how the
inspiration for the melody to "Over the Rainbow" came to him suddenly while his wife Anya drove:
“I said to Mrs. Arlen... ‘let’s go to Grauman’s Chinese ... You drive the car, I don’t feel too well right now.’ I wasn't thinking of work. I wasn't consciously thinking of work, I just wanted to relax. And as we drove I by Schwab's Drug Store on Sunset I said, ‘Pull over, please.’ ... And we stopped and I really don't know why —bless the muses— and I took out my little bit of manuscript and put down what you know now as ‘Over the Rainbow.’”
The song was originally sung in A-flat major. Arlen later wrote the contrasting bridge section based on the idea of 'a child's piano exercise
