First I would like to post a music video from a cartoon called "The Snowman" one of my best x-mas childhood memories!
The Snowman
The Snowman is a children's book by British author Raymond Briggs, published in 1978. In 1982, this book was turned into an animated movie by Dianne Jackson for the fledgling Channel 4. The film was nominated for an Oscar for Best Animated Short in 1983.
The book and film have no words, instead telling the story through picture, action and music. This adds to their charm, as well as making them easy to publish in other languages.
The film's one song, "Walking in the Air," was written specially for it and performed by a St Paul's Cathedral choirboy, Peter Auty. The song was released as a single, reaching number 5 in the UK charts, sung by Welsh chorister Aled Jones.
