Did you look at the end credits, they tell you what songs are in the film.

i think it was Israel Kamakawiwo'ole with his version of Somewhere Over The Rainbow. Hope that helps.

[veelhousen]

i'm pretty sure its not that one....but i'll check

it's used on loads of films....its a xylophone (Sp!!!) type thing....12 high notes (6 couplets) and then it drops on eight beats to a much lower note. Much more classical, quite upbeat..

wasn't that 'somewhere over the raindow version the one used on ER when mark green died....if it was it definately wasn't that one....

ah yes. hans zimmer is a famous pilferer of this song. ok, rearranged by bill brown for "finding forrester", your song is german composers gunhild keetman and carl orff's "gassengauer nach hans Neusiedler" from their album "musica poetica".
