I have the following song on a mixtape & would love to know who sang it,
the riddim was also used by Frankie Paul & by Kashief Lindo on 'No Can Do'

Lyrics,

'just like the rain that falls from the sky,
my love for you will never,
never die, (will never die)
just like the wind that blows
I'll never let you go girl
(never let you go girl)'

It's a very sweet rocksteady tune, big feelgood factor.....

The tune, Rain From The Sky has been done by a number of artists but the
version by Delroy Wilson is perhaps the best known version. RKR shows this
title by these artists, all from the early to mid-seventies:

John Holt, Maytones, Slim Smith & Delroy Wilson.

Robert, just a note to let you know I spoke some with Sang Hugh on my last trip
to Ja. There is a chance he may be
featured on a large upcoming show in Jamaica in the next few months. It's not
confirmed but if it happens, I will be sure to post it here. He says he has many
new songs written through the years and at least a couple of number one hits.
Who knows? I wouldn't doubt it! I hope things work out for the show. Drop me a
line if you would like to see recent photos or want to know more. He asked about

Also covered by Cornell Campbell for Bunny Lee as "I'll Never Change"
