Rainy Day by JJ Belle (featuring Danielle)

JJ Belle wrote this song with me (Danielle) in mind to sing it back in 1999. We recorded it at his home in Harlesden, London. Sadly we never got the chance to perform it live as JJ died of cancer in 2004. Not only a great musician, he was a great guy with time for people. He played for some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Elton John, the Pet Shop Boys, Dusty Springfield, KD Lang and more. You can read more about him at www.dognpony.com/jjbelle. My Dad also died of cancer in 2000 and I would love for this song to be a memorial for both of these men who played an important role in my life. If you like the song please consider donating to Cancer Research UK as a small token of your appreciation. Oh and nice comments, as always, greatly accepted!
