This is great! I was just looking for Manheim Steamroller on Youtube, and came across this. It made me laugh with delight. I love it when people are festive like this!
@123kingkongphoto I suspect RL is more charitable in person than he is "on the job"; he makes a lot of money doing that "grinch" act. Anyway, I was going to write that Chip Davis should have quit after "Convoy", but it turns out he did the first Steamroller album before that. Someday, I know I'm going to hear some new-age music I don't hate, but I'm still waiting.
When I see these amazing displays I always applaud the designer/producer. No matter what software is used, someone has to choreograph the entire piece.
It really is cool that I get to tell you "in person" (or as close as we can get in the interwebz) that your work is fantastic! :)
someone in my neighborhood in Vegas had this two years ago during Christmas time. i used to go sit on a wall across from their house and smoke a bowl while watching it.
how inventive and creative..delightful to watch..adds to the festive atmosphere of the holiday season...Happy Holidays!!! from the Daniels family in San Diego California
By the way..whose houses are featured in Manheim's light videos if anyone knows and would care to share...thanks Ho ho ho...

That instrument is probably electronically produced...like everything else they do. Still can't find that "CLASSIC" old fashioned version of this song I've been looking for. But like what's been done here with the lights like many folks do on their videos..the sound is nice :-). See the "sponsler" channel for more christmas and weather videos
Gee sponsler, there are so many "classic" versions of this song, that I wonder where you are looking if you can't find one. However, if you want "classic", try Celtic Woman's version. It is stunningly beautiful. As for Steamroller, there are a lot of instruments used here that are *not* electronically produced for this song.
That is a wooden recorder. It is not electronically produced. In fact when I seen them live the drummer (Chip Davis) played that with one hand and the drums with the other.
Manheim Steamroller does my favorite version of my favorite Christmas song. Imagine my joy when I found this video. To put such effort into your holiday lights and really do justice to this song is brilliant. You've made my season !!
DevilWife, I agree! I don't understand why people can't just appreciate the diversity and hard work that goes into creations like this! Remember what Mom used to say? "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all!"
I think these dancing light shows are absolutely fantastic! And fun to watch! My favorite is watching the kids watch them! They get sooo excited!
Oh give me a break you wouldn't know real music if it bit you on the butt then. If you don't like it then don't comment and just leave the page. yesh.
Teehee, this is not a new song of theirs either. Actually, most Little Drummer Boy songs I don't like, but their, I do. It's very fun. And btw, now you're going to make me go listen to some Daft Punk! :)
LOL...I remember last year when my sister IM'd me telling me I HAVE to hear this group called Transiberian Orchestra. After listening to a lot of their music I thought, 'I knew this group as Mannheim Steamroller when I was in high school (mid 70's), so yeah, I definitely have heard of 'em. (and have seen them too). n fan-damn-TASTIC group!!
xD lol, Trans-Siberian Orchestra is amazing, too. My mom accidentally got a TSO CD instead of Mannheim Steamroller when I said I wanted the CD with their version of Carol of the Bells (The M.S. version of Carol of the Bells gives me CHILLS. It's so amazing.) ...and thanks to that CD, I got hooked on the TSO AND the M.S. xD
................I had no idea people could do that with their Christmas lights. Wow. And the fact that it is to my favorite Christmas track by Mannheim Steamroller makes this like, uber amazing. My husband thought I was nuts when I squealed and made him watch it with me. XD
GAH! you people are morons! This is the death of Christmas music... It makes me hate Christmas. I can almost say with 100% certainty that this family was murdered by their neighbors!!! This music is the reason people convert to different religions or become atheist!
Love this ..awesome...Merry Christmas and happy holidays to all<3
