Bjork has written a tune called "The Comet Song" for a Finnish children's movie dubbed Moomins And The Comet Chase.

The film will be released in August or September 2010, and features these animated creatures called Moomins that look like what would happen if you crossed a dog with a pig, then with a hippopotamus and a horse. (There's a trailer for 2008's Moomin And Midsummer Madness below if you care to take a look.)

Bjork wrote "The Comet Song" with Sjon, who also co-wrote "Bachlorette" and "Wanderlust," from 1997's Homogenic and 2007's Volta, respectively. Bjork loves Moomins, according to her official website, and has worn Moomins T-shirts several times in the past.
