Singer and songwriter Jani Lane, front man of Warrant had it all, but he was unhappy. He wrote a song that went double-platinum, and it redefined him. It didn’t matter what he did, he couldn’t escape Cherry Pie.

Or was that the problem?

Years before Warrant and Cherry Pie, Mr Jani was sexually assaulted and never told anyone. He lock that horrible event away in his mind and for years the memories haunted him. He tried alcohol and at first that worked, but it slowly stopped. And Jani Lane tried consuming more to smother his pain. But his memories wouldn’t go away.

When Jani Lane felt he could get no lower, he shared what happened with the love of his life, but it was too late. And Mr Jani was found dead a short time later with nothing but his name on a piece of paper. His body couldn’t accept another drink.
