Written mostly in the very early 80s, with a middle 8 recently thrown in, this song is very obviously influenced by the Two Tone label artists who broke through at that time. 

I heard you talking on the radio
Beneath the beat
The words you said went out the window
But the music brought me to my feet
Day by day
Step by step
Out on my way
I take a breath
We seem so free
But incomplete
Live all our lives
Beneath the beat
Couldn't tell you when it was
That music came to town
I only know that since that day
It's always been around
And never once let me down
And it's given me a constant stream
Of endorphins and dopamine
So sing it out
Loud and proud
There's no real need for you
To have to try to tell me
What it's all about

Endorphins and Dopamine

Beneath the Beat

romantic song about running away and how that's a bad idea sexy sax 80s vibe with the synth feels

Kingston Sound System have created this new-imagining of The B-52s classic track ‘Love Shack’ using the original vocal takes combined with a live Jamaican reggae band. The unmistakable vocals from Fred Schneider and Kate Pierson sound at home inside of a wall of skanking guitars and pulsating horns, creating a sun-drenched version of a track named by Rolling Stone as one of the greatest of all time.

The Sands of Paran
©OsheaDavis ©KairoMusic

[Verse 1]
Through the sands of Paran, choices come and fall.
Men speak their unbelief, tales of giants tall.
Milk and honey gleam, but fear locks the gate.
Grasshoppers in their eyes, they curse their fate.

[Pre-Chorus]
You have a choice, sharp as a blade.
Will you march on, or will you fade.

[Chorus]
The promise stands, take the fight.
The land is here, claim the prize.
Walk by the word, not by sight.

[Verse 2]
On the edge of glory, You get what you say.
Speak doubt and you will die, in the sands you stay.
Rebellion stirs the camp, hearts turn to stone.
They dream of Pharaoh’s chains, a safer home.

[Pre-Chorus]
You have a choice, sharp as a blade.
Will you march on, or will you fade?

[Chorus]
The promise stands, take the fight.
The land is here, claim the prize.
Walk by the word, not by sight.

[Bridge]
They walked through the red sea, they let God save them.
Told them take up swords, they rejected Him.
Forty years in the dust, generation lost.
Unbelief in His Word, comes at a high cost.

[Instrumental]

[Pre-Chorus]
Two voices rise, one trembling, one sure,
Sight screams "never," faith cries "more."

[Chorus]
The promise stands, take the fight.
The land is here, claim the prize.
Walk by the word, not by sight.

The Sands Of Paran -80s Version

🎵 I WON’T LET US DOWN 🔥 Anthem of Love, Grit, and 1980s Working-Class Rock Power - A heartfelt rock ballad with a powerful 1980s Huey Lewis & the News-style groove, “I Won’t Let Us Down” is a soulful tribute to love under pressure. With a wailing intro saxophone, driving rhythm, and soaring vocals, this song channels the struggle of the everyday working man — bruised but unbroken — determined to provide for the woman who believes in him through every storm.

It’s an emotional ride through factory haze, late-night doubts, and the unshakable will to rise above it all. Raw. Romantic. Resilient. For anyone who’s ever fought for love with empty pockets and a full heart.

💔 For the dreamers who refuse to quit.
💪 For the lovers who never let go.
🎷 Featuring a blazing sax solo that bleeds soul and hope.

LYRICS

Another sunrise through a factory haze
Punch the clock, it's just another day
Bills on the table, dreams on hold
But I still see our future made of gold

I know you're waitin’, babe, holdin’ the line
Smilin’ through the silence, buyin’ us time
You're the calm in my storm, my grace in the fight
But I see the hurt you're hidin’ in your eyes

Every plan I make keeps fallin’ through
But I swear I’m doing all I can do

I won’t let us down, even if it’s killin’ me
I’ll climb through the fire, through the poverty
I know it’s hard, but don’t lose faith now
I ain’t lettin’ go, I just don’t know how
You deserve the world, I can’t give it yet
But I’m not done, this ain’t the end
I’ll break these chains, I’ll wear this crown
Someday soon…
I won’t let us down

I’ve been patchin’ hope with overtime
Makin’ ends meet in a crooked line
But the weight gets heavy when you feel so small
Tryna be your man when I can't stand tall

I hear the whispers, I fight the doubt
They don't know what real love’s all about
You still hold my hand, you still believe
That kind of faith brings a man to his knees

Baby, I’m bruised, but I’m not beat
I’m holdin’ on to what we need

I won’t let us down, even if it’s killin’ me
I’ll climb through the fire, through the poverty
I know it’s hard, but don’t lose faith now
I ain’t lettin’ go, I just don’t know how
You deserve the world, I can’t give it yet
But I’m not done, this ain’t the end
I’ll break these chains, I’ll wear this crown
Someday soon…
I won’t let us down

When I’m up late, chasin’ the light
Know it’s all for us, every sleepless night
It ain’t about pride, it’s about the vow
To give you more than I can give right now

I won’t let us down, even if it’s killin’ me
You’re my reason, my fight, my destiny
I’ll find a way, I swear this to you
No storm will break what we’ve come through
You deserve the world, and I’ll get there yet
I’m not done, baby, don’t forget
I’ll rise for you, I’ll wear that crown
Someday soon…
I won’t let us down

I Won't Let Us Down

current 80s version of the song.

Verse 1
Although He knew His dreadful fate
For love of Father and of Bride
Chose to be lead outside the Gate
He was nailed and pierced in the side

Was a lamb in the lion’s teeth
He overcame sin and death
Devils could not hold Him beneath
Here comes your king just like He said

Chorus

Lift you doors, Lift you gates
Here is my Son
Left His throne, came to save
rose from the grave
Here’s your King, He is great
He holds your fate
With Him rise, with Him reign
And kingdoms gain

Verse 2

He left my side, to do my will
He is the King, Lord of Glory.
He may ascend my holy Hill
He is my Son, one and only

He healed the sick, captives set free
They follow Him, in victory
Heavenly host, sing with Me.
This is a Father’s serenade

[Suno music as a cover from my original music]

Father's Serenade - 80s version

🎵 "Born to Sing to You" – for Ramon, to Mirella 🎤 This is more than just a love song—it's a life story in melody. "Born to Sing to You" is a soulful ballad that captures one man's unwavering devotion to the woman who changed everything. From a chance meeting in a bar to building a blended family, this song tells the true journey of love, patience, and destiny.

This heartfelt tribute is dedicated to Mirella, the woman who inspired it all. Every lyric, every note is a testament to a love that grew not from grand gestures, but from quiet, consistent truth—and the power of a song sung from the heart.

🎙️ A mic in hand. A soul laid bare. A love that never let go.

Listen, feel, and remember... sometimes, we are truly born to sing to one person.

LYRICS

You walked in with that smile I’ll never forget
Long black hair, eyes I hadn’t seen yet
I was just a man with a mic in my hand
But from that night on, you changed who I am

I sent you a beer, you said “No thank you”
You could buy your own, you had nothin’ to prove
But I kept on singin’, week after week
Not for the crowd, but hopin’ you'd see

Mirella I was born to sing to you
Every word, every note, every sky so blue
Through the silence, through the years
Through your laughter, through your tears
Didn’t know your heart was locked away
But I sang with love anyway
Now I know it’s always been true
I was born to sing to you
Sing to you
For you

That night at your house, I still feel the heat
All your friends dancing, then you pulled me to the beat
He stood in the shadows, lost in his pride
But we lit the floor with something he couldn't hide

Your friends gave the sign, then left us there
And suddenly, baby, I knew you cared
You looked in my eyes and told me the truth
And I said, “Darlin’, I’m here for you”

Mirella I was born to sing to you
Even when I didn’t know what you were goin’ through
You were strong, holdin’ on
But I’ve been your love all along
Didn’t need a promise, didn’t need a cue
My heart always knew what to do
From the first time I looked at you
I was born to sing to you
Sing to you
For you

Now we’ve got a home, a family full of light
Your kids, my kids, all sleeping safe at night
And every week under Skampa's neon hue
I grab that mic, and sing for you

Mirella I was born to sing to you
After all these years, it still feels brand new
I don't need a stage, don't need a crowd
Just your smile to sing out loud
And when my voice fades someday too
You'll still hear my love carry through
Every word, every time, every "I do"...
I was born… to sing… to you.
Sing to you
Just for you

Yours truly on all things guitar and other instruments. 
Recording & creating original music. And now using Ai for the music part of some songs.
Mostly Christian based lyrics with a few classic love songs. 
So far I own the rights to all my songs, no publishers. Thus, for my biblical based songs I want to always have a free version of them. You can listen and download all publish songs for free the official website.
This SoundCloud is mostly for my own personal use, because it is convenient for me to use when creating and mixing and testing. If you like particular version of a song I am working let me know so that I understand better the type of stuff my audience wants more of. 
Thank you.

With more money I can do more songs, faster and better. If you want to help me in this, because it cost money and time, please consider donating to my paypal. Thank you.

All here, in reality, are works in progress and are therefore apt to change at any time. All those except XIII Sisters and RAW which, as many of you may have done, I literally gave away in return for their placement in a library. Something I won't be doing again any time soon. If you have a use for something you hear here please just ask.

ChatGTP said of AI Music...
'Creative AI tools can be seen as sophisticated plagiarism software, as they do not produce genuinely original content but rather emulate and modify existing works by artists subtly enough to circumvent copyright laws'

Sometimes it takes a dispassionate, independent view to actually see the truth of it ...

There are links to XiiixxiQ below. Your mileage may vary as to whether it decides to work on your system or not. It only runs on a Mac because I really don't have time to do all the necessary work to make it compatible with anything other than my 2015 MacBook Pro :-(. It is still being developed (for my own use) and improved, and I may yet get round to doing another release if I can find the time to tidy it all up.

Welcome to my Soundcloud Page. 
You will find songs in a singer-songwriterly vein by me, taking in a range of musical genres,  alt/indie rock songs recorded by The (Now Legendary) Maybees in the 1990s-early 2000s, some classical sounding music by The Lucem Symphonia, as well as banging EDM/electronic tunes by Casaubon and a few mixes of a collaboration with Bentcousin,. Unknown Unknown is another alias I have used for one release and Firenze Anemones is a new project. Most recently, I have collaborated with Massachusetts composer Betsy Breitborde on The Ghosts of Christmas Past.
Whether it's plainly a demo or a painstakingly mastered recording, I hope you enjoy what you hear. Please leave comments and don't be afraid to get in touch, I am always interested in getting feedback and connecting with other lovers of music. If you want to download anything, many of the finished recordings are available on Bandcamp and an increasing number are on all of the usual digital platforms platforms. If you use other platforms, you can find music from me (and some others) there under the names:
