I want to say thank you to everyone who keeps coming back to this video. The co creator of Third Hour Productions, Anthony Woodle, passed away on September 13, 2020. This was a remake of one of the first videos we made together early in our friendship. This video meant a lot to him and to me. So again, I cannot thank you enough for the continued support and love for this video.

Don’t like this song I love Christmas carols and cards celebrating the birth of my savior

71 people don't know how to rig up the lights!

I remember hearing this song on the radio as a kid, back in the very early 90s (maybe 1991 or 1992). Even as a kid, the guy gradually losing his mind over the Christmas lights always made me laugh.

this is so funny I like when the guy is swinging at the tree it isn't even a pine tree lol

best version ever

Hanging up the lights reminds me of the national Lampoon's christmas vacation 😂

It’s funny how the Salvation Army guy from the 7th verse interrupts the one from the 6th one. Also, the lights guy always cracks me up.

THIS BEST 1 OF ALL!! never gets old:))) now why da hell are dey blinking?!

I found this years ago when I was too young to think "I should tell the creators how much I liked this video, they would probably appreciate that." Well, I'm back, and here's what I have to say. This is wonderful! I love how creative you guys got with what you had on hand, it really shows that not everything needs special effects. The approaches to "Facing my inlaws" and "the Salvation Army" were especially clever and hilarious. Props to you guys, this was a treat back then, and it is still a treat today.

Props to the originality to this! The creativity to it all - I chuckled every bloody time! Brilliant and bravo chaps!

"Daddy I want some candy" I never get used to that funny line lol 😂
