Hi folks.
Am downloading (legally) a backing track for the snowman (walking in the air) but I'm not sure which key its played in.
I kmow it starts in the Dm chord, but after that I dont have a clue.
I can change the key when its downloaded.
Thanks in advance.

It is in the key of Dm.

Thanking you.

Just a note about the Shadows arrangement of this tune. I believe it was probably Cliff Halls' input, but if you listen to the keyboards during the 2nd verse of the melody, the Dmin drops chromatically to Dbaug- very subtle, but leaves the melody hanging until its reolution to Dm7. It's a standard sequence, but unusual in its use here.... just thought I'd mention it.....

PS: It's very apt discussing The Snowman- it took me an hour and a half to get home tonight from work- a journey that usually takes 15 minutes!!.....(Thinks-"I must start using the other 4 gears one day....")

Thats nuthin'!
I left work at 2.30 p.m. last Monday and got home at 5.45 a.m. the next morning.
A journey that normally takes around 25 minutes stretched into an all night session, stuck on the M73 at 10 below zero.
No sign of any help... never a bobby around when you need one. Police appeared at 5 am and then the traffic started moving.

...then perhaps this thread should be retitled 'The Slowman'!!...... (I'll get me coat......) ....
