Cherry Pie was not his best song, but it is how most people will remember him. Jani was much more than that though. He was a very talented singer and musician, but the simple truth is that singers and musicians are a dime a dozen. Jani's true gift was as a songwriter. His arrangements, his harmonies, his vocal melodies ... There are simply not that many people that can churn out good songs the way he could. And he made it look easy. This was a big loss. This one hurt.
I will truly miss Jani Lane.

and I'd have never known the difference.
When your life is one long downpour,
you're not sure you'll go the distance ..."
