Lorenzo by Phil Colins

Did You Know…? In 1996, Phil Collins released the song Lorenzo on his album Dance Into The Light. This song was written by Michaela Odone, a co-founder of The Myelin Project with her husband Augusto, as a poem to her son Lorenzo, who was born with ALD. Lorenzo requested for Phil Collins to sing and record the song. Phil immediately answered Michaela and Lorenzo’s wishes and set the lyrics to music. Michaela and Augusto have made significant contributions to the ALD community by developing the treatment Lorenzo’s Oil and founding The Myelin Project to encourage more research about ALD.
