Breathless Ballad Challenge

Breath of Life (Para Don Berna) is a newly debuted song by Yankees legend and Latin Grammy-nominee Bernie Williams and multi-platinum recording artist Jordin Sparks. The lyrics were written by the winner of the Breathless® Ballad Challenge, which is sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals, and are set to “Para Don Berna,” an instrumental ballad written by Williams in honor of his father, who passed away from idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) in 2001. The winning lyrics were written by David DePinho of New Jersey, and were chosen by a panel of celebrity judges.
