music gurus -- question

I've heard a male vocalist, with a voice softer than Johnny Mathis, sing a song that is a blending of two songs -- one is Somewhere over the Rainbow --- I can't recall the other!!!!

Does anyone have any idea who this might be? I've heard this song in public venues twice in the last month. It must be pretty popular, although I am not up on "popular" music anymore.

Thanks in advance if you can figure this out by my less-than-optimal information.
