Don has a very charming personality and his musical abilities have given him privileges at an early age of working alongside some of the greatest artists such as Paul Young, Dennis Brown, ABC, John Holt, Maxi Priest and many others. Don has even supported international artists like SWV, Massive Attack, Lisa Stansfield, and Wet Wet Wet.
In 1993 Don collaborated with Trevor T of Juggling Records and came with the huge Reggae hit ‘See it in your eyes’. This held the number 1 position in almost every Reggae chart for 12 weeks. ‘Lovers Do’, his follow up single entered the then Echoes Chart at number 9.
Don’s first album titled ‘Don Campbell, The Album’ was released in May 1994 and is still selling internationally and can still be found amongst most Reggae Lovers Collections. 1994 saw Don at the British Reggae Industry Award where he picked up 4 Awards for ‘Best New Comer’, ‘Best Male Vocalist’, ‘Best Singer’ and ‘Best Songwriter’. The Echoes paper described Don as ‘The most exciting UK Reggae Vocalist to emerge’. In 1995 at the Black Music Awards, Don walked away with Awards for ‘Best Reggae Soloist’ and ‘Best Reggae Single’.
In 1996 Don collaborated with General Saint, landing a number 1 spot in South East Asia with the cover of 60’s singer Neil Sedaka’s song ‘Oh Carol’ which was internationally a huge success.
After extensive touring all around Europe, South East Asia, Africa, America, Australia and Canada, Don returns in 1999 with an album called Reggae Max. Don went on to doing three more exciting albums between 2002 and 2004.
2005 sees the birth of ‘Blu Jeanz Records’ and ‘Camm Street Publishing’ owned by Directors Don Campbell and General Saint who have two rising stars signed to the Company - so look out for the whole new package, don’t say you have not been warned.
Don still continues to tour around Europe and England and is one of the UK’s most sought after Reggae Artists.
The final word from Don is ‘Even better things yet to come’.
Storm Is Over Now
Don Campbell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was in a tunnel
And couldn′t see the light
And whenever I'd look up
I couldn′t see the sky
Sometimes when I'm standin'
It seems like I done walked for miles
Dead in the middle of a smile
But then I climbed the hills
And saw the mountains
I hollered help ′cause I was lost
Then I felt the strong wind
Heard a small voice sayin'
The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)
Come on and set me free, whoa
Now in the midst of my battle
All hope was gone
Downtown in a rushed crowd
And felt all alone
And every now and then
I felt like I would lose my mind
I′ve been racin' for years
And still no finish line, oh
But then I climbed the hills
And saw the mountains (Mountains)
I hollered help ′cause I was lost
Then I felt the strong wind
And then a small voice sayin'
The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I can feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)
Come on and set me free
Somehow my beginning stepped right in (Right in)
Then faith became my friend (My friend)
And now I can depend
On the voices of the wind
When it′s sayin' (Sayin')
The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I can feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)
Won′t you come and set me free
Won′t you set me free
The storm is over
(The storm is over now)
And I can see the sunshine
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
I can feel Heaven, yeah
(Heaven is over me)
Won't you come and set me free

The singer mentions that he was in a tunnel, unable to see any light and whenever he looked up, he couldn't see the sky. He felt like he had been walking for miles with his heart silently weeping. However, he climbed a hill and saw the mountains, and cried out for help, and that's when he felt a strong wind and heard a small voice telling him that the storm is over. He saw the sunshine somewhere beyond the clouds and felt that heaven is over him.
Through the song, the singer mentions that he has been racing for years but still hasn't reached the finish line. Sometimes, he felt like he was going to lose his mind.

The singer has now found hope through faith and believed that the storm is over now.

I was in a tunnel
I was deeply stuck in a difficult situation
And couldn’t see the light
I couldn't see any way out of the situation
And whenever I’d look up
Even when I tried to look for the way out
I couldn’t see the sky
I couldn't see any hope in the situation
Sometimes when I'm standin'
Sometimes, even when I was trying to be strong
It seems like I done walked for miles
It felt like I had been struggling for such a long time
And my heart could be cryin'
And even though I may have been smiling on the outside, I was hurting on the inside
Dead in the middle of a smile
Still trying to put on a brave face despite the pain
But then I climbed the hills
But then I began to make progress
And saw the mountains
And realized how far I had come
I hollered help 'cause I was lost
I asked for help because I couldn't do it alone
Then I felt the strong wind
Then I felt a sense of empowerment and strength
Heard a small voice sayin'
I listened to the encouraging and supportive voice inside me
The storm is over
The difficult times are behind me
(The storm is over now)
The storm has passed
And I can see the sunshine
There is hope and brightness ahead
(Somewhere beyond the clouds)
Even though things may still be difficult, I know there is a better future waiting for me
I feel Heaven, yeah
I feel a sense of peace and happiness in my heart
(Heaven is over me)
I know that I have something good in my life
Come on and set me free, whoa
I am finally free from the burden of the difficult times
Now in the midst of my battle
Even when I was in the thick of it
All hope was gone
I had lost all hope
Downtown in a rushed crowd
I felt alone and disconnected from those around me
And felt all alone
I felt like nobody understood what I was going through
And every now and then
From time to time
I felt like I would lose my mind
I felt like I was going crazy
I've been racin' for years
I had been struggling with this for a long time
And still no finish line, oh
And I couldn't see an end in sight
Somehow my beginning stepped right in (Right in)
But then I found a way to start making progress
Then faith became my friend (My friend)
Then I started to have faith that things would get better and that I could overcome the difficulties
And now I can depend
And now I know that I can rely on
On the voices of the wind
The encouraging and supportive messages I hear from those around me
When it’s sayin' (Sayin')
When I hear them saying
Won’t you come and set me free
I am hoping for someone or something to help me break out of my situation
Won't you set me free
I know that there is a better future waiting for me, and I am eager to be free from these difficulties
