The 1989 album 'Trouble Or Nothin' was produced by DESMOND CHILD and boasts guest contributions from TOTO guitarist STEVE LUKATHER, GUY MANN DUDE and backing vocals from KISS front man PAUL STANLEY amongst others. The album also features a version of the KISS track 'Hide Your Heart' and a plethora of other outside contributions from the pens of Child, Diane Warren and ALICE COOPER. 'First Time' was contributed by former OZZY OSBOURNE bassist PHIL SOUSSAN. Arguably the best track on the record, 'Sleeping With The Enemy' features a credit from Robin Beck herself. Beck also turned up sessioning the same year guesting on Norwegian artist OLE EVENRUDE's 'One Size Fits All' album.
Robin's second album, 'Human Instinct', was released on the D.S.B. label in 1992 and features a host of top session players. Included are TOTO's Jeff Porcaro, erstwhile CHOPPER keyboard player Kim Bullard, guitarists Tim Pierce, MICHAEL LANDAU, Lee Ritenour and Michael Thompson and Myriam Valle (ex-DESMOND CHILD AND ROUGE) on backing vocals. The Lennon brothers of VENICE fame also contribute backing vocals to several tracks.
Whilst Robin took a greater songwriting role on 'Human Instinct', the album is still dominated by outside contributions. 'In My Heart To Stay' was written by CLIMIE FISHER. 'Treat Me Like You Used To' is a Sue Shifrin, David Cassidy and MARK SPIRO co-write. 'If It Don't Hurt' was penned by JOURNEY's keyboard player JONATHON CAIN and Mark Spiro. 'Next Time I See Heaven' is a Robin Beck and GLEN BURTNICK collaboration, whilst 'Will To Live' was written by I-TEN's Tom Kelly and Billy Steinberg with the HEART sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson. Meantime, Beck's former hit 'The First Time' was put to good use by Austrian female Rocker VERENA, using it to win the TV talent search programme 'Starmania'.
Beck made a welcome return in 2005 with 'Do You Miss Me' for the Italian Frontiers label in Europe, King Records in Japan and Locomotive / Ryko for the USA. Naturally the record would be bolstered by strong support of song-writers and guest musicians with DESMOND CHILD, Amy Sky, Chris Pelcer, MICHAEL BOLTON and MARC JORDAN donating compositions. Backing vocals came courtesy of husband JAMES CHRISTIAN and LISA DALBELLO. She also featured on RADIOACTIVE guitarist TOMMY DENANDER's solo album 'Taken', guesting on the track 'Easy's Getting Harder' duetting with JAMES CHRISTIAN.
Inside Me
Robin Beck Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Makin' love on a moonlit road
As you whispered words of passion
And we lost all control, just let it go
Caution to the wind
Now we both have to think it over
Tell me, where do we go from here, oh
It's hard enough for me
It's more than I asked for deeper deeper
Than the sea this could be our legacy
Cause a heart beats inside of me
A heart beats inside of me
Could be bitter sweet oh yeah
Or this could just be a miracle
I'm not afraid long as you'll be with me
Cause I won't give it up minds made up
Our childs on the way
And I may not have all the answers
But I'll never regret this day
This is bigger, this is bigger than you think
It's hard enough for me
It's more than I asked for deeper deeper
Than the sea this could be our legacy
Cause a heart beats inside of me
A heart beats inside of me
I'm lost in emotion with love and devotion
So close, yet so far away and it's
Something we created, has my soul elated
I can feel the love inside
Now we both have to think it over
Tell me where do we go from here, oh
This is bigger, this is bigger than you think
It's hard enough for me
It's more than I asked for deeper deeper
Than the sea this could be our legacy
Cause a heart beats inside of me
A heart beats inside of me
The lyrics of Robin Beck's song Inside Me describe a momentous event between two people: the conception of their child. The first verse begins with a description of the circumstances surrounding this event, taking place at the end of a summer night while making love on a moonlit road. The lines "As you whispered words of passion, And we lost all control, just let it go / Caution to the wind" suggest a feeling of abandon and spontaneity, as the couple surrenders themselves to the moment. However, the second half of the verse acknowledges the weight of responsibility that follows, as they "both have to think it over" and consider where their relationship will go from here.
The second verse deals with the singer's personal feelings about the situation. She acknowledges that "This is bigger than you think / It's hard enough for me", suggesting that the reality of impending parenthood is overwhelming. However, she is also deeply moved by the experience, as shown by the lines "I'm lost in emotion with love and devotion" and "Something we created has my soul elated / I can feel the love inside". The chorus repeats the message that the heart of the child beating inside her is a potent reminder of the significance of this moment: "This could be our legacy / Cause a heart beats inside of me".
Overall, the lyrics of Inside Me convey a sense of the complexity of emotions that accompany the act of creating a new life. They capture both the joy and the fear, the excitement and the uncertainty, that can coexist in such a momentous event.

Right at the end of the summer
It happened towards the end of the summer season
Makin' love on a moonlit road
We had sex on a road on a moonlit night
As you whispered words of passion
You spoke words of love and desire
And we lost all control, just let it go
We both became wild and gave in to our passion
Caution to the wind
We threw caution to the wind and ignored potential consequences
Now we both have to think it over
We need to reflect on what happened and make a decision
Tell me, where do we go from here, oh
Let's figure out what to do next
This is bigger, this is bigger than you think
This situation is more significant than you realize
It's hard enough for me
This is difficult for me to handle
It's more than I asked for deeper deeper
This is beyond my expectations and goes deeper
Than the sea this could be our legacy
This situation could define our lives forever
Cause a heart beats inside of me
I am pregnant and a tiny heart is beating inside me
Could be bitter sweet oh yeah
This could be both good and bad news
Or this could just be a miracle
This could be an unexplainable and miraculous event
I'm not afraid long as you'll be with me
I am not scared as long as you are by my side
Cause I won't give it up minds made up
I have made up my mind and I won't change it
Our child's on the way
We are going to have a child soon
And I may not have all the answers
I don't have all the solutions for this situation
But I'll never regret this day
I will never regret what led to this situation
I'm lost in emotion with love and devotion
I am overwhelmed with emotions, love and commitment
So close, yet so far away and it's
Although we are close, there are still some challenges ahead
Something we created, has my soul elated
We have made a creation that fills me with joy
I can feel the love inside
I can feel the love growing inside me
