Michael Holm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/When_a_Child_Is_Born
When a Child is Born (Soleado) was a popular single by Johnny Mathis.
Written by Fred Jay, from a melody by Ciro Dammico, alias Zacar, the song has been performed by artists as diverse as Boney M., Kenny Rogers, Bing Crosby, The Moody Blues, Cissy Houston, Charles Aznavour, Plácido Domingo, Sissel Kyrkjebø, Willie Nelson, Tarja Turunen, Demis Roussos and many others.
The most successful version is probably the Jack Gold produced version for Johnny Mathis which was his sole number one single in the UK, spending three weeks at the top of the chart in December 1976 and selling 850,000 copies.
The Original with alternate Text was sung by Michael Holm, a German Schlagerstar, "Tränen lügen nicht" (Tears Dont´t Lie) in 1974. It was the first Version of this Song, but not a Christmas Song.
