Hi Jim,
I must have missed this 'Christmas song' of you.
As some others already said, something totally different from what I used to hear from you.
But very, very well done. The organ with with that penetrating sound and your way of singing the song makes it very exciting to listen to.
I more than agree with all the compliments of the others here. You did a very good job with this one. Thank God in Europe we have our own Santa. We can still celebrate Christmas!
But your lyrics were very funny. I could see these deers in front of me, dead stoned and thinking they could fly with their carved ears. A very nice find.
Merry Christmas, Jim!
Hans
Thanks Hans... I glad you enjoyed it... But I hope I don't disappoint you... If I go back to writing those "cry in your beer" country songs 
Jim

Jim, this is one Christmas song I want to hear every year!
Excellent write, vocals and outstanding backing tracks and lyrics.
PS My feet were tapping and my head was laughing. Hard to beat that combination!

Hi Jim, When I started playing, I blinked and doubled checked that I was listening to one of your songs. My eyes confirmed that I had the right person but my brain is still in denial! This is what has been described to me as "thinking outside of the (Band In A) box". I'm on holidays right now but if I was in teacher mode still, this would be worth an easy, easy...  Creativity shines as bright as the noon-time summer sun! You've really outdone yourself with this little gem. Truly inspiring on s-o-o-o-o-o-o many levels! All the best, Noel Thanks Noel… For your listen & glowing comments. You can really make a songwriter blush .
Jim

Hi, Jim !
...and a most Merry X-mas
to you though it may seem
a bit gloomy if Santa is
held up by the cops for long ?
this is certainly a most
interesting piece of music
I´d say !!
Keep on rockin´ !
Cheers
Dani Thanks Dani... For your continued comments & support... I guess could add extra verses... About how Santa escaped from jail... Got his reindeer out... And finally delivered those presents  A song with a happy ending?

Thanks Mario... For your listen, comments, & support... It tickles me to know your feet were tapping & you head was laughing... And you liked it well enough to want to hear it again next year I only wish there was an easy way to find the old Christmas songs each year... So we could listen to them!

First the mix, then the riff and then the theme it all keeps one interested in an alternative Xmas Song that would send kids into tears.
Very clever all round. Really well thought out and created. Brilliant!!!
