A Spaceman Came Travelling Lyrics


A spaceman came traveling 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 starHe 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 afraidThen 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 airAnd it went la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
Peace and goodwill to all men and love for the childThis 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 aroundAnd 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 goes la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
This song will begin once again to a baby's cry
And it goes la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
Peace and goodwill to all mean,
and love for the child.

Celtic Woman is a musical group from Dublin, Ireland comprising five irish women with a repertoire that ranges from traditional Celtic tunes to modern songs. Current members include the three vocalists Lisa Kelly, Chloë Agnew, Lisa Lambe and the violinist Máiréad Nesbitt. Deirdre Shannon sang with the group during Ní Mhaolchatha's pregnancy in 2005-2006. Hayley Westenra, a New Zealander of Irish descent, sang with the group during its 2006-2007 tour as its sixth member. Méav Ní Mhaolchatha and Órla Fallon were two of the original members of the group, though both have since left to pursue other projects.

In 2007, Ní Mhaolchatha left the group to focus on her solo career and was replaced by Hilary. Sharpe initially joined the group to fill in for Kelly who was on maternity leave, and later became a full member as a replacement for Fallon (who left to spend more time with family and record a solo work).

Since then, both Alex Sharpe and Lynn Hilary have left, making way for Lisa Lambe, the newest member of the group.

Celtic Woman was recorded on September 15, 2004 for PBS Television in The United States at The Helix, Dublin to a sell-out audience. The show was organized by show producer Sharone Browne and musical director and composer David Downes, and produced by Dave Kavanagh. The show was first broadcast in March 2005 in The United States and within weeks the album Celtic Woman reached number one in the World Music charts in America and on Amazon.com charts. Their huge success in Asia and in America has been credited to the already successful megastar Enya and has been called "Riverdance for the Voice". As of July 22, 2006 the group has broken a long standing record in the music business. Their CD has been at the #1 position on the Billboard charts for an amazing 68 weeks.

On October 19th of that year, Celtic Woman was knocked off its No.1 spot on Billboard's World Music Charts, which it had maintained for 82 weeks, by Celtic Woman: A Christmas Celebration. This put the groups' 2 CDs at Nos. 1 and 2 respectively.
