Furthermore, "Over the Rainbow" is not only part of the great American songbook, it is one of the acclaimed, well-known and most loved songs of our time. Upon its release, it was voted 1939's Best Song of the Year and immediately became Judy Garland's trademark. The great singer wrote of "Over the Rainbow" with enduring affection: "When I first met Harold Arlen, I was just 14 years old. The first song of the score for The Wizard of Oz was 'Over the Rainbow.' (As for) my feeling toward 'Over the Rainbow' now, it has become a part of my life. It is so symbolic of everybody's dreams. That often people find tears in their eyes. I have sung it hundreds of times and it's still the song that is closest to my heart. It is very gratifying to have a song that is more or less known as my song, or my theme song, and to have had it written by the fantastic Harold Arlen." According to legend, this timeless song came to composer Harold Arlen literally out of the blue on a day while he and wife Anya were on the way to a movie at Hollywood's famed Grauman's Chinese Theater. As they were driving along Sunset Boulevard, the melody suddenly came to him. He quickly wrote it down. Of his sudden inspiration, Harold reportedly exclaimed to his wife, "It was as if the Lord said, 'Well, here it is, now stop worrying about it!'" He later played it for old friends, Lyricist Harburg and Ira Gerswin and Harburg was struck by inspiration and titled the song "Over the Rainbow" and quickly composed the unforgetable lyrics.
