Christmas Music Listen to new music for the holidays
walking-in-the-air
Something about listening to Kate Bush's "50 Words for Snow" sent me on a bit of a nostalgia rush to 'The Snowman'. After looking it up on YouTube and watching the amazing flight scene again for the first time in years, I had the song in my head all night. So I picked up my guitar, and this happened. It was a bit of a whim, but here you go, something for the festive season.
Words and music: Howard Blake
From Raymond Briggs' "The Snowman"
Arranged, performed and recorded by Anne-Marie Sanderson

@diazo: Hey, thanks, that's good to hear! I love the original too, I figured that doing a version of it would be the best way to deal with having it as a complete festive earworm :)

This cover almost has a western film kind of feel. I love the original and I think you did it justice. I dig the reverb and the vocal doubling. A friend of mine did an electronic cover of this recently, which is also amazing; it's cool to hear the many renditions.

@Anne-Marie Sanderson: You should check out the song, "To Build A Home" with the Cinematic Orchestra... his and their finest moment.

This is my interpretation of Howard Blake's song, sung by Peter Auty in the film The Snowman in 1982. Thanks for listening :o)

@Gary Sunshine: Thankyou Gary! Alas, I can't take credit for the writing, it's from a British children's film called the Snowman... which I adore :)
