Light Up The Sky is an EP by Rick Wakeman which contains four new songs.

Contents

Wakeman had been asked to write a song specifically for a huge firework display in Newcastle upon Tyne which he was to perform live. He wrote the song "Light Up The Sky" but because of poor ticket sales the event was cancelled. He then released this EP with three additional new songs.
