Let’s finish up the ankle biting song tributes to putting down that video game and getting exercise in the frosty cold.
Sheila Magaret Ward has an introductory “Who Is He? (The Snowman)” that hits lofty marks (and notes) for the existential and definitive case for that thing. Folk pop.
Less sensible, is the ‘tribute’ to other songs with “Goodbye, Snowman” from Super Simple Songs. Children’s showtune.
Mr. Mike continues the familiarity with “Where, Oh Where Has My Snowman Gone?” By the numbers, now.
Petula Clark in full kid shouting mode gives us “Where Did the Snowman Go?” 1952adelia. (Spike Jones did it with Linda Strangis in 1953.) (And Patti Page.) (Gene Autry too.)
Picking up the beat, Rockin’ Rhythms rolls along with “Bye Bye Snowman” in a haunting melody of despair for children.
Ken Galipeau brings up the heat with Michael O’Grady, the snowman who keeps flowing with “The Snowman’s Song.” All good things must end, but not usually this fun.
More fun is the electronic folk of Rudolph and the Snowman” by A.J. Jenkins. Polite, philosophical, and a little kicky.
