A friend recently mentioned something about the phenomenal Michael Giacchino soundtracks for Lost and wanted to know if I knew how to play a song from them. No, in fact, I did not, but I certainly would like to. So I sat off and found a simple tutorial, practiced it a few times, and 'ere long had the tune down, hopefully committed to memory forever now.
"Win One for the Reaper," or "Life and Death" is a beautiful song, oddly reminiscent of last week's haunting "All Shall Fade." I learned the song yesterday and played (and recorded) it this morning from memory. Give it a watch, if'n you'd like. I think I did a fair job, though it seems a bit rushed at times. Great song, nonetheless.
(Is it odd that last Friday's tragic song was song by Pippin in LOTR, which also starred Dominic Monaghan, who played Merry, who coincidentally played Charlie in Lost, and this song just happens to be playing when Charlie drowns? Maybe I'm jumping for Lost connections here...)

Very nice... I may have to "fave" that and just play it in the background now and then... nice...
Thanks. Best not listen too much lest ye fall into depression. The song's just too sad, though beautiful.
