[@nwk38]

This song was written by Chris DeBurgh in 1975. Lisa Lambe does perfect justice to DeBurgh's wonderful song. Lisa's talents come clear in this rendition .Her beauty,voice and acting stand out in a beautiful performance. Theme or basis of song,from Wikipedia.... "The song is a narrative of a UFO religion tale ,is a retelling of how the angel Gabriel came to give a message to the shepherds, but with a spaceship and a spaceman instead. De Burgh seems to make a prophecy of the Second Coming in this song: "The stranger returned and said 'now I must fly. When two thousand years of your time has gone by. This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry..." The baby represents the purity with which the Christ will be returning." Compelling version.Thank you Lisa Lambe

[@irenednlzz4366]

LYRICS A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar, 'Twas light years of time since his mission did start, And over a village he halted his craft, And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star He followed a light and came down to a shed, Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed, A bright light of silver shone round his head, And he had the face of an angel, and they were afraid Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear, I come from a planet a long way from here, And I bring a message for mankind to hear, " And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air And it went La La Peace and goodwill to all men, and love for the child This lovely music went trembling through the ground, And many were wakened on hearing that sound, And travellers on the road, the village they found, By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all round And just before dawn at the paling of the sky, The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly, When two thousand years of your time has gone by, This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry" And it went La La This song will begin once again To a baby's cry And it goes La La Peace and goodwill to all men, and Love for the child

Just because they're dancing doesn't mean they're not doing it live. You can train your voice not to bounce. Like, I'm not a singer but I did marching band and by that logic we wouldn't have been able to march and play at the same time because you'd hear our air bouncing when we moved. You simply train yourself to move smoothly and control your air. It's not an impossible thing.

[@nwk38]

Not an impossible thing especially for professionals as these women are.

[@Katiescarlet18]

She's not opening her mouth wide enough to the words, it's totally obvious. I'm an opera singer and have trained with trainers from Europe for 10 years and have done many competitions and I still stumble even just by walking. You can train but honestly it's never usually a success.

[@sarahcoleman2244]

HelloKatie X2 Opera training is far different from this. As with the person who wrote the original comment . I too was in marching band. I am also a vocalist myself. In my experience playing a wind instrument is barely different from singing. My teaching is not classical and I can not only walk but do some choreography while singing and do so well. Please do not assume extreme classical training applies to all vocal and performance styles. It doesn't.

This performance of the song is THE VERY opposite of what the song is trying to tell people! Ego, hedonism and pleasure VS sacrifice, service and forgiveness. If one wanted to do a ridiculing parody of the message in the song they couldn't have done a better job! All you have described that you have seen is the glitz and glamour - the very opposite of the song. It couldn't be more ill-fitting and in such bad taste.

[@jamesparker760]

@@Sionnach1601 I see no hedonism here. And an expression of pleasure would not be inappropriate since, to Christians, the birth of Jesus was a joyous-and dare I say- pleasure inducing event for later people. The elaborate choreography can easily be understood as a type of liturgical dance as well. (a physical interpretation of the spoken message) The performance exudes a sense of happiness and energy. Think of it this way.... if something really wonderful happened to you, would you want your loved ones to be all somber and aloof, or would you want them to be rejoicing with you ?

An interesting fact that if a spaceman really did come travelling and travelled close to the speed of light because of time dilation Travelling at 99.99999 percent of the speed of light, for a year, more than 2000 years would pass on earth.

Stefan Meier I see the same thing too! Yes, this totally fits Doctor Who. Would be great for them to use this song and make an episode of what we see.

Maybe they knew that-T.A.R.D.I.S. blue on the dresses...

[@DaVultCave]

I never thought of that :O

Really really really love this song and the performance! But; It was light years of time since his missions.... etc. Light years is a measure of distance, not of time. Bothers me more than it should have. Really great song though!

I love this song with all my heart it's so magical and soothing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

A spaceman came travelling on his ship from afar, 'Twas light years of time since his mission did start, And over a village he halted his craft, And it hung in the sky like a star, just like a star He followed a light and came down to a shed, Where a mother and child were lying there on a bed, A bright light of silver shone round his head, And he had the face of an angel, and they were afraid Then the stranger spoke, he said "Do not fear, I come from a planet a long way from here, And I bring a message for mankind to hear, " And suddenly the sweetest music filled the air And it went La La Peace and goodwill to all men, and love for the child This lovely music went trembling through the ground, And many were wakened on hearing that sound, And travellers on the road, the village they found, By the light of that ship in the sky, which shone all round And just before dawn at the paling of the sky, The stranger returned and said "Now I must fly, When two thousand years of your time has gone by, This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry" And it went La La This song will begin once again To a baby's cry And it goes La La Peace and goodwill to all men, and Love for the child Oh the whole world is waiting, waiting to hear the song again, There are thousands standing on the edge of the world, And a star is moving somewhere, the time is nearly here, This song will begin once again, to a baby's cry

Now there's a woman who loves her job. : ) She really seems to enjoy singing, and I enjoy listening to it. I love CW, every lady in the group has a lovely voice. I could listen to them w/o seeing them and still enjoy their music, but their joy in performing is part of the appeal of watching them.

[@bennyswales8245]

One word Brilliant done by one of the most good looking women in the world like the rest of the group fantastic...

Had plans to take my mother to their live show for a mother's day gift. Sadly the world had other plans. So we just went through the playlist on the TV. Started with this. Ended with i see fire. Was close enough and she said it was still fun.

Lisa is the perfect Celtic woman performer red headed beauty with voice of an angel who is excellent performer as well!

[@elharvey98]

I just would like to say that even though this song is not based on Doctor Who, as a fan of the music and a huge fan of the show their are a few ideas that span across both. Allow us whovians a chance to breathe, to image that our space man descends on the earth in his blue box. After all these are stories both whether one is true or not let the music take you into your own world, whether it be Gallifrey or the earth it doesn't matter your head your beliefs!

This was taped at Atlanta's Fox Theater September, 2011, during Celtic Woman's "Believe" concert. Thank you Friends of Fox for saving this beautiful landmark from certain destruction back during the 70's and enabling it to continue to host top-notch productions such as this.
