I am in this video which was shot in one long day. And, yes, there was a light switch on the outside of the house. This is a California ranch house. The living room walls are wallpapered plywood covering walls of windows. Hi, Elmo.
Great to hear from you. If I remember correctly, you were not only IN the video but did the Lion's share of the artistic set up, wardrobe etc. Thank you for helping to make the video such a success.
ok people. lets not cry because someone did a remix of a song. remember this is an american song and in AMERICA we are allowed to actually express artistic views. so deal with it and move on
This remix is bullshit, why do they have to mess with something that was perfect to begin with. The song is turning 30 so let's bastardize the song so people will hate it and never play the song again.
@Schmiki24 -- Gee, I enjoy this tune but I remember hating that anoying "Rocking Around The Xmas Tree" song. Top 40 stations just played that 1 to death.
I personally dont like Christmas songs, but this, this is something else :DD I cant stop listening. :D Finnish Christmas songs are always so lame, why cant we have songs like this?
Interesting information on this video. The songwriter and singer is a veterinarian Elmo Shropshire, D.V.M. (aka Dr. Elmo) He originally recorded the song in 1979 with his then-wife Patsy. He re-recorded it solo in 1992. Dr. Elmo not only plays Grandpa in this video, but he also plays Grandma!
I heard this on my local radio station like, two three years ago? I sang it in school and nobody believed me it was an actual song and I got in shit for 'being rude' :/
I remember listening to this song way back in elementary school.....i wanna say it was '82 but i guess it could've been '3.....lol who knows? I was too damn young then. But I know this is on KICK ASS CHRISTMAS TUNE!!!
I worte a song about Peyton Manning got run over by a linebacker during the Patriots third super bowl title run my friends & my school loved it & laughed there ass's off & I was voted the song of the year in music class back in my Sophomore year in high school
Grandma got run over by a fat ass in a red suit dawmn he probably waights like big show.And if grandma fell in the chiminey how in the hell did she even make it down without hurting herself?.This video is so dawmn ockward that id rather watch fuckin rodolph even that shit is better
I got to this song via Drawn Together: "Some of the greatest songs have been born from tragic deaths. Think Candle in the Wind, think Tears in Heaven, think Grandma Got Run Over By a Reindeer." XD XD XD
grandma got runover by a reindeer. she was pronounced dead on scene. you can say theres no such thing as santa. but as for me and my deadbeat dad we believe... bom bom bom.. shed been smoking to much crack and we yelled at her to GTFO! but she forgot her .357 as she punched and beat a hoe. when we found her xmas morning. she was gang-raped and attacked. she had semen on her chest... and stab wounds to her back. grandma got runover by a reindeer. she was pronounced dead on scene..................
@shadow123123123 Love this comment and so will my long time drummer turned commercial flight captain, Gregg LaGardo who was the cop. I'm passing it on to him. We will be amused by your acute observation for years to come! Appreciatively, Elmo
better than the animated version by a long shot. in the animated version, when it got to "she's been drinking too much eggnog" it just added dialogue that matched the song lyrics, which is bullshit!
Dinnerpianist, i love, and intend to steal your theory that I have to pay good musicians handsomely to look like they are enjoying playing the Grandma Song. had I known you were going to be playing it I would have sent you a check so you would act like you were really digging it. It's confidential how much I had to pay The Roots.
@Laughingstockrecords I enjoyed playing it numerous times because guests had a great time hearing it and joining in. I hold my personal preferences in check for my paid function is to make the room a fun place to be. I've been playing holiday bookings since 1970 and it changes by decades. Santa Baby was big three years ago but not too much this year. I have knee pillows for one guest to fall on their knees when O HOLY NIGHT is sung.
What! In compiling my list of worst Christmas songs ever, I totally forgot this one (the regrettably even more horrible hour long TV special brought it shockingly back to my attention.) Love it for its stupidity and all that if you wish, but I NEVER want to hear it again. (Actually, it kind of disgusts me.)
LOVE "GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER" is a classic that will stand the test of time!! Artist-Novelty act "ACE"
