The Snowman

[varjohaltia]

Thanks to an online conversation I just realized that a fair bit of my North-American readership may be unfamiliar with the Snowman, which gets shown on Finnish TV every Christmas. This is the origin for a Nightwish cover which tends to amuse Finns greatly. Here's the original and here's the metal version, which really is very true to the original (and a crummy youtube clip, sorry.)

Wow! I'm really impressed with the flying segments of the animation. (Well, the rest isn't too bad, either!) I think the depressing "memento mori" at the end makes it seem all the more appropriate for a Nightwish cover.

Thanks for sharing the links!
