Chart Peak: 6

Hey, is that 'Away In A Manger' in the intro?
I've mentioned before the seemingly endless stream of Lighthouse Family hits in the second half of the decade, and here we are again with the third of five singles from their second album. That equates to exactly half the tracks from the album, which would be bad enough if there was a wealth of outstanding and varied material on there. This being the Lighthouse Family, of course, there isn't; only the resemblance to a nursery rhyme distinguishes this from most of their other successful releases. It's all impeccably smooth and tidy, but none of the sentiment can really cut through. Even the title is unfortunately un-distinctive: just weeks before this entered the charts, little-remembered Britpoppers Electrasy made their Top 75 debut with a different 'Lost In Space' and by the time it dropped out, Apollo 440 were in the Top 10 with their version of the movie theme.
