I watched the snowman today, and I watch it every Christmas day, and at the end when the credits are rolling and the instrumental version of this song comes on, I get sad :(
Originally when this snowman movie was released in 1982 on channel 4, everyone though it was Aled Jones singing the centre piece "walking in the air", when in fact it was Peter Auty..both have very similar singing voices..but there is a perceptable difference. Aled Jones' cover version is a much stronger vocalization of the song with slight differences in the music..to most people though both Auty and Jones sound almost identical...both fantastic singers in their own rights
I'm not sure why you have included a shot from The Snowman film considering Aled Jones's version of the song has nothing to do with it. For everyone who doesn't know, Aled Jones's version is a cover for a Toys'r'us advert.
The original version produced for The Snowman was recorded by choirboy Peter Auty. Saldly he never gets the recognition he deserves.
honest to god, when this part played, the film used to scare me shitless when i was little... im still scared to watch it encase it still creeps me out :/
