About 35 years ago, I watched the snowman on german television when I was a child. I watched it for some years in a row until it wasn't aired anymore and I've grown older. I forgot the movie. When I was 26 I saw it again by chance on television. I cried instantly. I bought the DVD and watch it on every christmas morning since then. I am 40 now!

I've watched The Snowman every year since I was a kid, I'm now 26 and I'll still watch it happily. It's British culture to turn on Channel 4 every Christmas and watch it.

The world wouldn't be the same without this song. What a legend

I'm Norwegian, but half English, and once my father showed me this and told me it was a christmas tradition in England I kept rewatching it every year, and it's really become a part of my tradition. While it's not on in Norway I take the liberty to go onto KZfaq and cast it to the tv for my Norwegian family to join in with as well. Love this song!

Heard my little brother singing this out of no where and this song slapped me in the face from my childhood the memories bro

Thank you Raymond Briggs, for giving us one of the most beautiful Christmas stories to ever exist. Rest in peace.

The snowman starts my christmas every year. Can't have a christmas without this song!

As a grown up Aled Jones still has a beautiful voice. He's now a tenor.

I'm Sri Lankan Thanks youtube algorithm recommend this masterpiece for me🤩

Peter Auty's and Aled Jones's voices are not of this world - and a beautiful song - I cannot listen to this song without tears.

I loved Aled Jones as a boy soprano and he is a fine tenor now. This song is absolutely beautiful.

am 53 years old but am watching this since the 80s..nostalgia is not the word to describe this amazing song

Those who are complaining that the video isn't related, it is. It is the official video for Aled Jones' version of walking in the air. And the reason there are not clips from the snowman is because this is a different version. The original (the one from the snowman) is by Peter Auty.

Watched the snowman for the first time in year 5 and never stopped watching it ever since every year. I’m 28 this year :(

Love that song! I m 50 and still crying when I see that beautiful cartoon and this song is so so magical and fitting!❤

This song fills my heart but also breaks it. Ive been gone from Ireland 10 yrs and this song to me is Christmas and my family.

I am now 47 years old and i still listen to this. I watched this a little girl. Its brings a chill down my soul...

I came here from Pictures in the dark - Mike Oldfield :) Brilliant performance long ago. Thank you Aled Jones.

Christmas wouldn’t be the same without Aled Jones singing this song. Legend.

We're walking in the air We're floating in the moonlit sky The people far below are sleeping as we fly I'm holding very tight I'm riding in the midnight blue I'm finding I can fly so high above with you Far across the world The villages go by like trees The rivers and the hills The forest and the streams Children gaze open mouth Taken by surprise Nobody down below believes their eyes We're surfing in the air We're swimming in the frozen sky We're drifting over icy Mountains floating by Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep We're walking in the air We're floating in the midnight sky And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

I just watched the snowman and I still cry to it even though I’ve seen it about 1000 times... I love this song so much and I hope y’all have a merry Christmas and hopefully you get to see your loved ones soon!

Beautiful song..and aled Jones is a very nice Welshman!

I was only about 10 years old when this came out... ...I didn't appreciate it. But - as I have aged - i have developed an appreciation for it...love it now! ❤️

I’m a 25 year old male from the UK and back when I was younger this song was “gay” but now I can really appreciate the beauty. What talent ❤️

Amasing voice!❤

I had a cassette tape of Aled’s years ago which I wore out through playing it so much! He had a beautiful voice then & after a break was able to come back singing as an adult😊

Hong Kong's best action flick of 2024 - Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In brings me here. ❤❤❤👍 👍 👍

42 now and still listen every year, reminds me of good family time’s

Such a professional at such a young age. Beautifully sung with a beautiful voice. Thank you Aled. God bless you and your family and your good solid contribution today to television.

the greatest christmas song of all time

For who that doesn’t know, Aled Jones didn’t actually sing this in the movie, but Peter Auty did.

This song I remember mid 80’s when I was a young kid, just brings back so many happy memories from a wonderful time, life changes fast but it’s great to come back to those moments listening to this song !

I just tried to sing in to Shazam to find this song! It obviously didn’t recognise it! This is a wonderful classic …walking in the air.

Those Welsh "R's". I love the Welsh accent... and Wales. One day I will get to revisit Symonds Yat and the Brecon Beacons.

Great song. Respect from Siberia (Russia)

Being Greek never had seen this short movie till 2 days ago that national network of ερτ played this while I was in my couch, having my son on the carpet in front of the fire place playing. Got my attention instantly from the begining, wow what a piece of art. The song is mesmerizing and even If I never watch national TV Channel I am amazed of how this got my attention so naturally. This is a masterpiece of no comparison

This song is still part of the Christmas in 2019 this song will never die

This is definitely one of the most heart-crushingly beautiful songs I think I have ever ever heard; it's life-affirming; it makes you glad to have been born.

Best Christmas song of all time ❤

My non verbal son watches the snowman on repeat every Christmas. Never fails to make me cry when I watch his eyes like saucers during this song. ❤️

This scene gives a sense of existing in a world which is far from suffering. A world of magic and tranquility. Somehow even as a 25 year old, I feel the spirit of The Snowman with me. Merry Christmas everyone.

Можно слушать и смотреть бесконечно ! Великолепный голос в детстве и и сейчас хороший .

Почула цю пісню в Ірландії, тепер завжди на новорічні свята її слухаю! Гарна пісня!

This song and the snowman film still reduce me 2 happy tears whenever I hear it. Sooooo emotionally happy

So painful how underrated this song is what a christmas son seriously this unbelievable and for all year round

Nothing feels like Christmas more than this song.. I listen to it every year since childhood, I am now 40 years old.. I now play it to my daughter ❤

The world just wouldn't be the same without this song- amazing

First time I heard this was in The Snowman, I was 8yo. Now 40. still miss listening to it ever-year. It hits the nostalgia deep.

thee best christmas enchanting song you will ever hear hands down

This tune will forever hold the Christmas memories of many adults that were once children and many children that will become adults. 2020

This young man, though am sure he's much older now, had the most enchanting, beautiful voice This song and his vocal chords will never be forgotten Brought to life each year at Christmas as The Snowman arrives and the festive season and memories truly start and never end....🎶🎶🎶......🎄.......!!..

Cor, this takes me back. I liked Aled's songs when he had that beautiful soprano voice.

The original author of the Snowman, Raymond Briggs, has died aged 88. RIP Raymond Briggs (18 January 1934 - 9 August 2022)

I used to love this song and so did my grandma but ever since she’s passed I can’t listen to the song properly all because I start crying 😢

This wasn't a Christmas tradition for me, but I heard it last night after I don't know how many years, and I was like, "how did I forget about such a beautiful song??!!!!" I'm so glad its back in my life.

Balling my eyes out... 😭 A truly timeless masterpiece that transports us back to our youth. 😭 ❤ ❤❤

This song was sung by aled Jones years before I was born,but i love this song it's my favourite

This is my favourite version of the song. And no one in Canada has really heard of it and look at me like I"m crazy when I mention it but at least it's not overplayed.

Walking in the air more like walking with passion and pride this will never get old

Never work in a supermarket at Christmas. This song will forever be ruined.

Here I am once again, back around Christmas season.

This would be great in Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Surely someone with an angelic voice like this can do a very good job 👍 Merry Christmas

It reminds you of a time gone. A moment in history when our culture peaked a moment that will be lost in time like tears in rain. Our cultures and traditions will eventually fade away, humanity itself will eventually fade away into nothingness. This song will float around in the vast emptyness of space until even that dissapates into noise and then nothingness. We are all here in this moment, we are blessed and we can be forever, we just have to want it.

Aled is awesome singing xxx

Thank you Aled, for bringing us one of the most beautiful songs ever.

2:50 amazing voice goosebumps, classic and obviously the snowman you think off.

This gives me goosebumps. What a song!!

The times we will never get back

2021 and its still the BEST ! Thank you, Aled Jones. Phenomenal ! Merry Christmas, Everyone ! ❤❤❤

Hard 2 believe he's in his 40s now very talented lovely song Xx🎤

Everytime it snows I have this on repeat thru the speaker

Rest in peace Raymond, came back when I heard the news. ☃️🐶❤️

Merry Christmas to everyone watching in 2019 ❄🎁🎅⛄🎄🎀

What a magnificent and cherished song. One may imagine the awe and wonder of the child who is soaring high above the world in his journey to a land unknown as this plays.

wonderful song -I love that little dog running about with him .

This brings back memories this is my dads classic kite the world famous peter Powell kite that aled is flying. These kites are still made today by his 2 sons mark and paul

Beautiful song Beautifully sung..makes your heart soar..

My friends are freaking out about how high this is and I'm like 100% used to it XD I've watched The Snowman too many times lol

He's now a cone legend

I grew up listening here from Brazil this song so beautiful that I admire until today, I love to listen Walking in the Air

Alex Jones had a great voice when he was young...

I love it it's the best I have ever heard!

Forty years ago, Channel 4 unleashed The Snowman on us. It's one of the programmes they've got bang on.

im 14 and i still love the snowman

Merry Christmas 2023

Masallah. Bismillah. Maximum respect. From a Welsh Muslim. 💚💙💜💛❤️👌🏽🇬🇧🇵🇰🇬🇧🇵🇰🌹💪 timed 906pm Friday 23 October 2020

A beautiful song with beautiful scenery to boot

Makes me cry every time. Miss you Mum, miss my childhood 😢

Howard Blake did a fantastic job making this song, Peter Auty made a splendid performance as the first singer of this song, and Aled jones proceded to do a great cover when he sang it for the Toys R Us ad.

Who else is back here around every Christmas?

I'm so glad that even as a 2007 person, I still got to hear and experience this masterpiece with The Snowman when I was a child, even though this was already years old when I first saw it.

Brilliant song I’ve watched snowman every year since I can remember and still love watching it.

I loved this when I first heard it 41 years ago as a child{ I am 3 years older than you }. My hairs stood up on my arms....Now; 41 years later, I witness you duetting with Malachi and the hairs on my arms are standing up yet again, as well as having goosebumps upon goosebumps because of the nostalgia and notoriety of this beautiful piece of music that will live on throughout eternity. This piece will be relived and relived and relived forever. One day Malachi will sing this with another young boy and the baton will be passed yet again....A special request...Please play the duet back to back with Michael Spyres classic FM production of Rossini "Largo al factotum" on Saturday

I tought Aled Jones was a grown irish woman 😂

I love this song ❤ and the place Is so beautiful 😮

I think this is the fantastic thing about Christmas films in the UK. The Snowman came out 18 years before I was born, but it's one of those films grandparents, parents, and us can relate to this being part of their childhood and nostalgia

A most haunting song
