Believe me, I do very much love appreciate this song and film! I watched this film with an autistic boy whom I did respite for. It was great because there were no words to the film, only this song! It had a magical effect on both of us! It was one of the few songs we could sing together and actually feel a connection with each other! I knew this boy loved me as I did him anyways but this song really sealed our bond. Thank you so much for posting it!
I love this movie. My mom got it for me and my brothers and sister when I was maybe 2. I still remember the song and I haven't seen it since I was about 5 though. I'm almost 19. I don't know anybody besides my family that have watched it. I'm from the US also.
This is most probs the best song for xmas, we were listening to it in afghanistan last week. I watched this when i was a young kid and love it, still.
i have never seen this before, but i love this song, its so touching for an un explainable reason :) my friend sang this really good, not like a pop version.. but like this. :)
Hi there. Yes this is a british movie which i'm sure you could probably get on dvd - try amazon or ebay,but check the regional code for your player (i think you would need code 1 or 0).I hope you find it as it is a lovely quite tearful movie.
Yes, I watched the three parts of it here on YouTube last night...wow...I mean it IS a great story, but I was a sad little girl anyway and I think I am glad that I didn't see this back then....I am 44 so I suffered through "Frosty", and I cried through that one too...lol.
I am totally hooked to "Walking In the Air", though...such a beautiful song. I listened to several different versions and it seems as though it is impossible to mess it up!
@hartyfarty12 This is ment to be for children, and unless your a grumpy old man then i think we have imagination? and we actually might have a happy life
man i love this ..... do u reckon i can buy it on itunes ..=] its a classic ...am gona show my kids and make em watch it hahah .........but they will love it anway .=]]]]]] a walkinggggggg in the airrrr ......=]peace
(-_-) this brings back so many memories, i remember laying down watching this when i was about 3? i loved it so much and i used to be scared of the snowman haha x
I think the last time I saw this movie was... I was really young, and the tune has always stuck in my head, and I'd hear things that would ping it and I never could figure out what it was! This has put a little bit of a piece into the puzzle of my musician's brain, thank you.
I wish people in the USA appreciated this movie more. I am one of the few! Timeless, heartwarming and awesome. Thanks for uploading this from where you did- most start from where they start to fly. It means so much more when you see the boy runto the snowman before they fly!
Its an awesome movie and a great song.I always get goosebumbs when i see/listen to it.A very sad scene when the snowman is molten next day.A timeless movie.Love it.
Because the music is in a minor key, lyrical and sweet. It evokes empathy and melancholy. It would be interesting, as an exercise, to put the words to a very upbeat tune and see how we feel about that version.
Timeless classic - reminds me when my children were little and my daughter cried when the snowman melted !! think her brothers did too although they strongly deny it !
This is one of the only songs that really move me, it brings back so many good memories and for many many years to come too (to put it differently, this is the best song ever made.)!
The best fairytale I ever seen! My favourite!!! My grandfather gave me when I was a child and now I'm still filled with admiration of Raymond Birggs work!
think this is spoooooky!
