if you really watch this video you can notice how the music changes with the pictures just perfect. it,s like the first part telling you what you have. then it changes to a question about what you can have after this life. so beautiful. the most well put together video I have ever seen.hard not to cry when you watch it.

This exquisite composition is by a wonderful Canadian composer, Haygood Hardy. After I heard this song (on the radio at work) I ran out and bought the album! I still have it :-D 10 stars!
