about this song
"Snowman" is Rainbow's instrumental cover of the "Walking in the Air" song written by Howard Blake for the 1982 animated film of Raymond Briggs' 1976 children's book The Snowman. The original song was performed by Peter Auty. The song forms the centrepiece of The Snowman, which has become a seasonal perennial on British television. The story relates the fleeting adventures of a young boy, and a snowman who has come to life. In the second part of the story, the boy and the snowman fly to the North Pole.
