How cool are Santa’s big antlered sled doggies? Don’t ya just love ’em?

“I Wanna be a Reindeer” has become a phenomenon for the adoring. Brian the Bold hits a country groove for the kids with it. Fair party anthem. The Jack Lomas Experience gets alt rock creepy about it. Plastic surgery is involved. Not for kids. Do You Hear What I Hear (feat. Spike Raven)? grates your dreams with a punk pronouncement. And it becomes suggestive with your girlfriend riding you around the world… Universal Groove‘s gasolined punk ramps up the tempo ’til we get grrly. Angry/hopeful. Max DeGroot goes full epic storytelling concerning Timmy’s childhood idealism. Drawn out kidsong. And i’m not sure it’s entirely a happy ending.

‘Radar Love’ gets the comical adaptation by Santa’s Elves on Autoplay. “Reindeer Love” may not be available commercially but i dig the rock expression here. And, i do believe it’s consensual. Among compatible species.

“I Love Reindeers” Deranged Mime Clan sings over and over again, whether or not you believe them.

Winter Wilburys go boy band overboard in their adoration of “Those Other 8 Reindeer.” Electric worm solo!

Love BLUE ALERT from Dyslexic Fudgicle: “Balls Deep in Santa’s Reindeer” is a brief foray into bestiality and should be filed under psychological aberration, or at least metal muttering.

Drtyboy calms the naughtiness with “Whip Me Like a Reindeer.” This dance mix simply encourages without painting a BLUE picture.

How weird are Santa’s pack of reindeer? I mean they fly… what else?

Perhaps only reacting to their aerobatics, Rick Riso wonders “Where Did the Reindeer Go?” with frolicsome jazz band coyness.

The Knife get post-psychedelic with “Reindeer” in which they move like shadows and be like X-men. Whoa.

Bah & The Humbugs unfold another talent from the reindeer book in “My Psychic Reindeer.” This phone-a-friend helps make all the important decisions in life with enigmatic koans pulled out of thin air. Electro-pop that wishes it were rock.

Not quite at the bottom of taste, The Ninja Fam put to music the story of the flatulent force behind Santa’s need for speed. “Tootles the Tooting Reindeer” might be an animated Xmas special somewhere. Those who need to can find it, I’m sure. Otherwise, enjoy this tame pop music kidsong.

Adrian Hill has a channel of Eric the Turkey silliness. His Christmas entry “Eric the Turkey and the Nervous Reindeer” involves the shy fella, Toby, who can’t fly until he loves himself. Also, he appears to be an Irish Setter. The song, moreover, is synth silliness. Be a shooting star, Toby!

Starting up like a coked-up ‘Grandma got Run Over’ spoof, “Thomas Got Mistaken for a Reindeer” takes the Christmas Cards down a long and winding oompah road of nonsense. Might i suggest Witsec?

“Can You Name the Stoner Reindeer?” is Jet Baker’s entry to the list making. Stasher, Downer, Blitzen, Vomit, Moocher, Dramatic, Bitchin, Pincher–i think i got those right. What are names but an appropriation of your identity by The Man, anyways, if you follow?

I am aware that most ‘Rudy’ songs are mere riffs on Sinatra’s cool nicknaming. Here we need actual tangents concerning OTHER members of Santa’s crew.

F’rexample, The Devil’s Deuce fools us with a standard intro; but “Rudy the Rockabilly Reindeer” is its own song. He might be the original star with shades on, but i’d rather hang with this flier than that other special deer.

From ’08’s bargain bin collection 13 Days of Christmas – A Romping Redneck Celebration no artist is ascribed to the bluegrass plodder “Rudy the Redneck Reindeer.” But it’s different.

On the other hoof, “Rudy the Rocknroll Reindeer” from Rocknroll Ranch is just retread. Not up to code.

“Rudy the Two-Toned Reindeer” is one rad cat. David Goody loads this supernumerary with characteristics that’d make anyone a member of the Rack Pack. Our choice for best Rudy.

Emmy the Great with Tim Wheeler count off the roster (…Sancho… Panza… Sarah… Palin!) until they come to the one everyone’s been waiting for: “Jesus the Reindeer.” Sprightly alt-pop.

“Donny the Long-Nosed Reindeer” is a Les Tafari attempt to parody ‘Rudolph.’ It goes round and round and doesn’t get anywhere. Then you realize it’s a previous presidential putdown. Political fire.

The kind of reindeer that would run over a geriatric is careless; the kind that would scam out the old folks–?? Marvy pop music from Wenatchee Valley Boys brings the finger-popping tribute to the scoundrel “Donny the Reindeer.” Look out, kids! No one’s shadier….
