Richie Haven & Peter Hewlett
Starlight Sequence (I Am The Starlight) - Andrew Lloyd Webber
Starlight Sequence (I Am The Starlight) - Andrew Lloyd Webber Lyrics Richie Havens and Peter Hewlett's Version
The "Starlight Sequence" is a showstopper from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Starlight Express. It is performed by Rusty, a young, naive Steam Locomotive and the Starlight Express, a magical Steam Locomotive that comes at midnight to help Steam Locomotioves in need. Rusty, who wants to compete in the world championship railway races, has lost self belief because Greaseball and Electra have been taunting him, and his coach, Pearl has dumped him for faster locomotives. In this number, the Starlight Express, sent by Rusty's father, Poppa, has come to tell Rusty that true power comes from within

Boney M - Mary's Boy Child / Oh My Lord
MARY'S BOY CHILD
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day.
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day.
Long time ago in
Bethlehem
So the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ
Was born on Christmas Day.
Hark now hear the angels
sing
A king was born today
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day.
While shepherds watched
their flock by
night,
They saw a bright new shining star
they hear a choir sing song
The music seemed to come from afar.
Hark, now hear the
angels sing,
A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore,
Because of Christmas Day.
Joseph and his wife,
Mary,
Came to Bethlehem that night,
They found no place to bear her child,
Not a single room was in sight.
Hark now hear the angels
sing,
A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore
Because of Christmas Day
By and by they find a
little nook
In a stable all forlorn,
And in a manger cold and dark,
Mary's little boy was born.
Hark, now hear the
angels sing,
A king was born today,
And man will live for evermore,
Because of Christmas Day.
