"The Comet Song" is a song by Icelandic artist Björk, written by herself and long-time friend and collaborator Sjón as the title theme of the 2010 movie Moomins and the Comet Chase. The song is released as a charity single and all the benefits are donated to the victims of the 2010 Pakistan floods.
Björk had previously declared to be a big fan of Moomins, and had worn clothes featuring characters from the series on several occasions.
Music video
The music video is formed by pieces of the movie. We can see the Moomins working in team and running away from the comet, among other things. The video is directed by Maria Lindberg, as is the film.
