Many of us grew up watching Christmas specials like Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer and Santa Claus is Coming to Town. And who could forget The Santa Clause movies? I look forward to watching them every year.
It’s that time of year again. I thought it would be fun to search for songs that mention reindeer. I didn’t have any trouble finding them. Here’s my list:
- “Up on the Housetop” – Up on the housetop, reindeer pause
- “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer”
- “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer”
- “Run Rudolph Run”
- “Here Comes Santa Claus” – Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
- “The Christmas Song” – to see if reindeer really know how to fly
- “The Night Before Christmas” – eight tiny reindeer
- “This is That Time of the Year” – To Dasher, Dancer, Blitzen, Prancer
- “Must be Santa” – Eight little reindeer pull his sleigh
- “Little Saint Nick” – Run run reindeer
Can you think of others?
Merry Christmas!
