Customer Reviews

So happy to see this CD at no.1
The Snowman absolutely makes Christmas for me. The bittersweet story always reminds me that nothing is forever; we should cherish the time we have.

Looking in the Children's Xmas songs category, I noticed that this CD was the top result. I'm so happy to see that so many others appreciate this work as much as I do.

Corection of review
This is definitly the original soundtrack of the 1982 film "peter auty" is the original singer. Aled jones did not record the song until after the film was made. However a recent dvd of the film used aled's recording instead. It also changed the intro to one with "David bowie". But rest asured this cd is the soundtrack of the film as released in 1982. It is a highly recomended cd.

Instantly evocative
In the deadly July heat and humidity found in the eastern US, I will play the soundtrack to "The Snowman", and it all comes back. All of the wonder and delight of the film comes rushing back, and I forget the dismal summer season. But even if I didn't know the film, the music stands well on its own. And the recording is a great monument to the British film recording industry. Buy it here; very difficult to find in the US.
