By Andrea Bocelli. By Alberto Salerno, Ciro Dammicco, Dario Baldan Bembo, Francesco Specchia, Fred Jay (trans.), and Maurizio Seymandi. Arranged by Kevin Riley. 20th Century,Christmas. 30 pages. Kevin Riley #714753. Published by Kevin Riley (A0.1112761)."When A Child Is Born" is a popular Christmas song. The original melody was "Soleado", a tune from 1974 by Ciro Dammicco (alias Zacar), composer for Italy's Daniel Sentacruz Ensemble, and Dario Baldan Bembo. The tune was based on Damicco's earlier tune "Le rose blu" published in 1972. The English language lyrics were written a few years later by Fred Jay (Friedrich Alex Jacobson IPI number 00015195204, who wrote many hits for Boney M such as Rasputin and Ma Baker). They do not make specific mention of Christmas. Fred Jay's lyrics have been sung by many artists, first version by Michael Holm in 1974 but most successfully by Johnny Mathis in 1976, whose version was the Christmas number one of that year in the UK.
