Sara Jackson-Holman- Freight Train

This is the fourth track from Sara's second album Cardiology, released in 2012. This song thus far is her biggest single, and is dedicated to her grandfather Albert who passed away while she wrote this album.
"My grandfather was a big part of my musical upbringing and his death came as a shock. When I was young he would drive three hours from Portland to Bend just to watch me play for seven minutes in my classical piano competitions, and when I had branched out into pop music, he'd come to my shows in Portland. I was in the midst of recording and needing to be creative, so the process became an outlet for my confusion and grief. His death was profoundly influential as I wrote the final songs for my album. "Freight Train" is a song I wrote when I had no words to express my grief. "Come By Fire", "Can't Take My Love", and "For Albert" (his middle name) were also all written within three weeks of his passing. ("For Albert" is derivative of the classical piece "Für Elise", a sort of homage to my background). I miss him very much, and to me, his being so much a part of my songs keeps him and his memory close to my heart."
