Life and Death by Paul Cardall

Most of you know that last year I received a second chance at life after a donor heart was placed in my chest. Ironically, my younger brother passed away while I waited for the transplant surgery. He was unable to donate his organs. (The video contains actual footage from the day mom brought our baby brother home).

Today, beating in my chest is the heart of another young man who like my brother has gone home to the God who gave us life.

The best way I know how to express the raw deep emotions I've experienced is through the piano music I create.

Life and Death was originally written by Michael Giacchino for the show LOST. I fell in love with the piece and it speaks peace to my soul. Together with Steven Sharp Nelson and Marshall McDonald I arranged "Life and Death" for my latest album, New Life.

Available on Itunes or where-ever fine music is sold.

Through all of this it is apparent in your remarkable music, for to listen, my soul truly is touched. You inspire even with all the hard times you and your family face. This is Exactly how I would play if i could..........from the soul. Thank you for your gift of music! -Garrett-

God works in weird ways, this song and story is a prime example of that

This song makes me quiver. My eyes start to go red and tears stream down my face. Not of sadness, but of joy. This year has been rough, it's been a roller coaster of emotions. The joy, the sadness, the anger,they're all part of my slowly fading self. I'll see you in heaven Grandma. With love, My family.

Sorrowfully, everyone, once  born on this wonderful Earth ....soon or later dies...it is thoroughly clear that there is no breakout from the mighty Death...

I listen to this song every once in awhile, and nothing else in the world matters as I listen to it. I don't worry about school work, money issues, pain or sorrow... It's like i'm in a trance. I like the feeling of that. I'm now learning this on piano. Terrific job on the song.
