Danny Sanderson Reveals Original Chorus of His Hit Song 'Don Quixote'

Veteran Israeli musician Danny Sanderson shared on social media a previously unreleased chorus from his famous song "Don Quixote," originally titled "This Is All For You." Sanderson explained that the song underwent several transformations during its writing process. Initially, the phrase "Oh Don Quixote" began as "Oh Yankele," but changed following a suggestion from singer Yehudit Ravitz, to whom Sanderson expressed ongoing gratitude.

The revealed handwritten chorus includes the lines: "Oh Don Quixote, don't be so naive, windmills are meant only for dreamers. Oh Don Quixote, never ride for me, always remain my knight." The song was released in 1990 and featured on Sanderson's 1991 album "Jump for a Second," performed as a duet with Mazi Cohen.

This glimpse into the song's creative evolution highlights Sanderson's songwriting process and the collaborative influences behind one of his well-known hits.
