Looking forward to having Christmas around?
The retailer´s Christmas TV spot, with its *pithy narrative, softly sung cover version and emotional *denouement has become a major event on the marketing calendar in England.
Watch the new Christmas advert The Man on the Moon by John Lewis and sing the song Half the World Away, originally by Oasis but performed by 19-year-old Norwegian newcomer Aurora Asksnes.

*pithy = breve
*denoument = desenlace
REVIEW
The latest John Lewis advert plays on the theme of loneliness and introduces a little girl, Lily, who is desperate to make contact with a solitary man who lives on the Moon. Looking at the moon through her family telescope one night, she is amazed at what she finds, a man on the moon.
Lily watches on as our man goes about his chores, all alone up there. She becomes determined to get something to the moon, to send him a message and show him that someone down here is thinking of him.
