Charlie,

Your kindness carefully punctures the screen and hits the heart. Make that two hearts. Dani will appreciate your support as much as I do. He may have already been getting ill when .. well, let me quote from a previous reply to give you the picture:

He named Look of Love, and it nearly killed us.

I couldn't get the key right. I couldn't make Dani's vocals work with the piano voicings. We were both getting discouraged. But Dani would not give up even when I wanted to. I kept adding more and more. Horns. A nylon guitar. Strings. More horns. Then, Dani delivered the vocal track. Bam! We had it. And this was so close in time, he may have not been feeling well even while giving unquestionably his best singing performance. It tells you a lot about the guy.
