A spaceman came travelling, Chris de Burgh

[XxlilmissgeorgexX]

This my beautiful new born daughters song only thing that gets her asleep



[YetiAndProud]

"Light years of time"

*facepalm*

Light years measure distance.

*sigh*

[ShadowScryer]

@YetiAndProud Symbolic. Consider how far a lightyear is, then convert that number to time in regards to miles or Km. Pretty long time.

Even if it doesn't make sense, it sounds nice.

[7rollface]

"Oom pa-pa omm pa-pa that's how it goes"

Frisky And Mannish FTW!

[arjunsujit]

U will surely locte her dear frnd... The song u hv dedicated for her is that much worth... Love the song like anything...

[jordanqwerty12345]

@SamuelG199

Hope it worked... or works.... Maybe you are her spaceman :)

[27lolcatz27]

[0palineblue]

So magical at this time of year , the greatest Christmas song from Chris de Burgh x

[fabulousgerro661]

[Dirtysconesgone1]

Good Luck Sam, I hope you find your dream my friend.. :)

[CloudChameleon]

Finally...

[DragonMasterThlayli]

What if this was the true story? It could well be, as stories change every time they are retold. This is the best xmas song of all time!

[mrpcun12]

Chris de Burgh's first recorded album...and a different take on the birth of Christ,but the message is the same...peace on earth and goodwill to all men.

[gaspode18]

Did he give Von Daniken a credit, I wonder?

[chrisread28]

i remember we used to drive over to france for our holidays when i was a kid, my three older sisters and me on one of their laps in the back of the car, we always sand along to this song, waving are arms side to side at the chorus...my dad's a massive Burgh fan...his second best song after spanish train

[jamsee1]

In my top 3 best christmas songs of all time. When i heard this i thought it was Paul McCartney but now i know it's Chris De Burgh that sounds like him! lol. Beautiful song.

[NeonLacMu]

1 person is very lonely and very sad

[FucktheCityscum]

NANANANANANAAAAAAAAAANANANANAN­AAAAAAAAANANANANANANAAAAAAA

[mr2000aaa]

This song is about how angel Gabriel went down to earth to tell the sheperds about Jesus, though Gabriel had to use a spaceman and spaceship to get there.

great song

[whereangelsplay1]

Best Xmas song psychickkay- its amazing how songs evoke memories- Love n Light x

[mohara1000]

A TIMELESS AND VERY UNDERRATED CLASSIC

ALWYES FILLS ME WITH HOPE

[dedicatedcarper]

[theuglyhairmonster2]

a spaceman came travelling on a shit from a fart

[RemusWolves]

This and Wonderful Christmastime remind me of my family.

[MissKiarna]

My granddad used to play this to me on the piano, every time I hear it, it reminds me of how Christmas used to be before it became so commercialised..... Awesome song!!

[JROC101010]

some great images used, bravo

[aldiafc]

amazing song :D

[lunaticonthegrass111]

A popular song about the reason why Christmas exists....there should be more songs like this! Plus, it is a good song as well.

[SuperUndertaker29]

up there with last christmas and do they know its christmas

[AaronGaming11]

Listened to this all last christmas. one of the best :D

[MiniminymoRoblox]

[pepegunnar]

1 person is Milly.  Hard luck, Sam.

[Titus0RA]

1 person is a fag

[SamuelG199]

I have written this message in hope that my dear friend Milly may read it. I have been trying to locate her, but sadly I’ve had no joy. I know she is a fan of Chris de Burgh so I live in hope that she reads this message and contacts me. Milly previously lived in Folkestone and worked for my mother. I let the best thing that ever happened to me slip through my fingers, even if too much has happened for a relationship to develop, I would also be happy to have her as a friend.

Sam x

[NArkWTikA]

@SamuelG199 too late to turn back only forward u must march

[OnTheLambda]

@SamuelG199 Never lose hope , it may happen . Good luck .

[MrGermanyjon]

a lot of vitrial on here, don't worry about the meaning of it.........it's a pleasant song that mirrors the nativity, updated in a quasi alien theme.......i think its original and moving. It highlights how hope is needed today more than ever.

[Oliverpebh8]

love this song pretty much! :) its have a good message ! but clearly we dont understand it.. ;) it brings back very good memories! :D

from all in Roskilde Denmark! :D

PS: or just me..

[van25175284]

This song has alot more meaning than we know

[instantsurgery]

god is the biggest con artist the universe has ever seen

[LordCinderWalk]

"and he had the face of an angel.. and they were afraid. "

[slymanward]

yeah, but it takes time to travel distance

[AndreiTupolev]

"T'was light years of time since his mission did start"? A light year is a unit of distance, not time. >:-o

[perstyr]

@AndreiTupolev

We can give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he means the time dilation caused by travelling at light speed meant he had gone for a long time without it passing for him as such. Or just chill and enjoy the music :P

[deantothea]

A clever lovely song, my fave xmas song, thanx for going to the trouble to make a great video, you have done it justice, cheers Dean

[Cinderaly001]

I love this song

[gagaslilmonsteruk]

This is one of my favourite christmas songs along with "Merry Christmas Everybody" and "I wish it could be christmas every day".

[KirstyJLowe]

One of my all time favourite Christmas Songs :)

Much prefer this original to the new one Chris de Burgh has released this year.

[EzPz8]

Im a straight guy but I do admit this song is beautiful haha

[StefDxx]

Heart warming story told beautifully, my favourite Christmas song.

[heavenlou]

You Guys Should Listen To Lana Skauges Version....

[bucky468]

Good song but I never hear CDB mentioning the word Christmas. Did I miss something?

[CARNLOU]

@bucky468 It's a retelling of how the angel Gabriel came to tell the shepherds that Jesus had been born. That's the Christmas side to the song anyway. De Burgh just replaces an angel with a spaceman.

[Sophianerarie]

@bucky468 mmm Maybe you missed the story of the song? It's the christmas story =) Listen to it again! hihii

[TheSandsie13]

one of my favorate christmas songs. only because it bends the ultrareligious in my family no end. and that is if nothing else fun.

[reaperfreaker]

excellent song if your religious or not

[gibsosgerbil]

Anicent Of Jesus and Gabriel and The Star Of Bethlehem is From The Bible.

Petire Is The Name Of Anicent Times Living In The Roman Period. He Lived There From 44BC- 31AD Since Jesus Christ On Assenction Day.

Is Petire The Name Of The Man In The Roman Period?

[highlandwolf01]

i've always loved this song from Chris de burgh, i agree probably his best, such a beautifull song..thanks for this

[KarleneC1]

@randomdave30 Obviously Jesus is the child referred to in the song. The spaceman is Gabriel. I think it's very clever, and beautiful.

[Highrule1032]

sorry i must sound stupid is this a christmas song because at school we have a christmas singing comption and i want to sing this song if its christmas

i love this song it reminds me of doctor who (the old ones)

[HotSummerof1976]

Around the 28th of Dec 1988,i video taped a documentry on Fleetwood Mac.The tape ran on to the closing down of the channel for the night,and played out with a video similar to this with the same song.Especialy the last pic of Hunters in the snow.I still have the tape and play it and Spaceman last thing every Xmas day since then.You clearly seen it too.Thanks for this vid its cool.

[randomdave30]

This is a complete mockery of the Nativity and the person of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was not a 'space alien' - He was and is the Son of God and the ONLY HOPE FOR MANKIND.

[gawain259]

@randomdave30 All "hope" is lost then.

[EKpaul1]

@randomdave30 go back and listen to the lyrics again

[lmckay023]

@randomdave30

oh be quiet! if I wanted to hear someone preach about God I would stand in my local high street! damn you guys are annoying! just shut up and enjoy the song! and yes im a christian! I dont like the idea of rubbing your beliefs in other peoples faces like your opinion is the only one that matters!

[randomdave30]

@lmckay023 Just because I express my opinion doesn't mean that other people's opinions or indeed other people don't matter to me. I am arguably more democratic than you appear to be, telling me to be quiet. 

[KarleneC1]

@randomdave30 ??? I think you misunderstood. Jesus is obviously the child in the song, the spaceman is the angel Gabriel. It's a very clever modern twist of interpretation, I don't see the "mockery" anywhere.

[randomdave30]

@KarleneC1 Ancient or Modern, Jesus and Gabriel weren't space aliens and the Star of Bethlehem wasn't a spacecraft. However, I suppose it's fair to say the Bible itself is largely told in parables.

Good tune though.

[mrbruceman]

@randomdave30

(puts on best Evangelical Preacher voice and yells)

THE DAYYYYEEEE OF REDEMPTION IS AT HANNNNNNNNNNNNND; REPENT!.... And thou shalt be saved...

Get a grip, lol

[randomdave30]

@mrbruceman Redemption? Don't you mean 'Revelation'?

[Spartan540BC]

beautiful song

[nonstoppkFred]

we did this song at my first nativity :( then i moved miles and miles away.. i lost all my friends :( its a matter of luck i remembered the name of this song... when i first heard it after 8-9 years i completely bawled. now i use it to bring back good memories. :) i think il listen to it once more before i go to sleep. nice video Psychickay. you did good :) peace and goodwill to you all.

[Psychickay]

@nonstoppkFred Your welcome Fred,glad u like it..
