This song is so genius, the idea is that Christmas in L.A is just a normal day with Christmas over tones and this song replicates that, it's just a normal song with Christmas overtones, brilliant.
+Rex0680 The drummer's singing is unbelievably up there with J5 !! I initially thought this was new intrumentation to old volcal trax when I heard it for the first time before The Good Dinosaur, in a cinema in England. Wonder why this was played there? I'm thankful it was tho, I never thought there was something fresh as good as this.
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE JAM IM NOT EVEN JOKING WHEN I TELL YOU THIS IS THE LITERAL BEST SONG I HAVE EVER HEARD. ALSO THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS A MIXTURE OF HILARIOUS AND AWESOME AND I LOVE BOTH OF THOSE THINGS. YAY MUSIC.
If you want to check out more Vulf from a drum point of view, try Adrienne & Adrienne which is my favourite Theo drum performance. And Jack said his own favourite drum performance was on the original 2012 Joey Dosik - Runnning Away.
There's no turning back, once you listen to Vulfpeck, you can't stop listening to it over and over again! Your soul is no longer yours, Vulfpeck has it now. 🤣🤣🤣
Let me tell you, this drum part is really tricky on its own, but Theo manages to SING while playing it, which is absoutely next level. As a drummer myself (among other things) I can't even begin to explain how good Vulfs are.
Joe understands the language of music more than he plays anything difficult. Practice, practice, and feel. Then, once you get to the point where you're comfortable, feel, feel, practice.
David's guitar playing!!!! The pup and Jack's ::ahem:: "dancing"! Joe's crisp, P.E.R.F.E.C.T. bass! Theo's beard!!!!! Everything about this is stellar!

I just saw the Home Free cover of this song, which I absolutely loved, and had to come see the original. Love this one, too. I especially love your dancing doggie. Woot!
that low res shot of (presumably) Jack shirtless bouncing a basketball next to a Chevy HHR on the street is now what I immediately think of when I think of LA. It’s just such an LA thing to me, even though I’ve never been outside LAX
+John Wick - more accurately, it's because they're experimental funk in a world that's decided that it only wants the kitsch of funk and feel of disco - they don't want the real thing anymore, just the memory of it I mean, Get Lucky and Treasure were there, but thing is, it's were there, the music scene these days feels funk-free now
I feel these guys could provide the music for Bruno Mars. Not the biggest fan of his but I respect him and his band and Bruno is definitely inspired by 70's funk (aswell as 80's hip hop etc). And Bruno is of course huge. Imagine the collaboration!
Vulfpeck! Saw your song on a hulu show called "Dollface" congrats! I immediately recognized your sound and was so excited I had to comment! I hope that your amazing music reaches more and more people every year and every Christmas. Big fan of your music and creativity! Keep up the great work! Happy holidays!
I've had to deal with my mom putting on the same 5 Christmas albums for the last 30 years. this year, when the family all gets together, I'm putting this on repeat all day.
Okay. So every now and then I'll remember this video exists and come here immediately to offset my debts with the universe. I've now set this as my home page.
best Christmas song I have heard in along time and not cheesy like most of the commercial crap I hear , you can tell these guys are real musicians and really love music :-)
Our marching band has this as our stretch song. We listen to it every rehearsal, and at first we were confused and didnt like it, but its grown on us and we love it ❤
argentina futbol lost with france in a world cup, i was so bad, but in another channel i was listen this song..... WOOOOO!!! AUTOMATICALLY I RECOVER MY GOOD HUMOR!! IS SO GOOD! THANKS I REALLY LOVE THIS SONG! SALUDOS DESDE BUENOS AIRES!
This is one of the few holiday songs that doesn't get old, even in July. Big Bulbs, by Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, is another. Basically anything from A Charlie Brown Christmas. And one year, the airport had Bela Fleck's album going at 5 am. That was pretty solid.
I'm Here for Drumeo...
Never heard this before..
So Cool!
I'm with ya
Same here 😂
4 guys now that like sepultura were curious about this song. What’s happening to us boys!?
@@jimsmith8952 We appreciate good music!
Same!
I'll be listening to this song on repeat until Christmas is over, thanks.
You make awesome videos.
+YourMovieSucksDOTorg
I knew you had good taste in music
+YourMovieSucksDOTorg Why do I see you everywhere lately! Love your vids Adam! BC FTW!
Yep, me too
hell yeah thats what im talkin about
This song is so genius, the idea is that Christmas in L.A is just a normal day with Christmas over tones and this song replicates that, it's just a normal song with Christmas overtones, brilliant.
Every great Christmas song needs a great song at it's core.
When you think about it, there's nothing inherently christmassy with any Christmas music. It's just christmassy by association.
The LA dumbasses celebrate xmas with no snow for hundreds of miles 😂😂
@@primtones
There is traditional Christmas instrumentation like jingle bells, though. Instead, this has cowbell
@@joshmc333We always need more cowbell in life!! 😁
homies got me listening to this song in June. In New York.
Savage
November, Florida
November, UK
July, Finland
January in texas
This sounds like something that would come out of a Jackson 5 song. I love it.
david t played on all those records
*****
:O That's awesome.
+Vulf I was just listening to A Motown Christmas with Stevie and Jackson 5 on it and thought it sounded like a perfect blend of both. Good stuff!
+Rex0680 The drummer's singing is unbelievably up there with J5 !! I initially thought this was new intrumentation to old volcal trax when I heard it for the first time before The Good Dinosaur, in a cinema in England. Wonder why this was played there? I'm thankful it was tho, I never thought there was something fresh as good as this.
+Rex0680 I was showing my girlfriend this album the other day and I made pretty much the exact same comment haha
i have a very strict no-christmas-music-except-during-christmas-time policy but this is my one exception
Joshua Juarez saaaame
My policy is no-christmas-music-ever-even-on-christmas, but this is my one exception
It’s different bc they’re Jewish, the rules are different
Don't rule out Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings.
@Tony Troskoski creepy song imho
This is possibly the best Christmas song ever made.
I agree!!!
arguably *
Take out the "possibly"!
try Donny Hathaway' s Xmas song ;)
That’s cause it’s not a cash grab.
I love that they didn't give a shit that the little Santa fell off of the bass drum like 30 seconds into the song
That's actually one of the things that cracks me up every time I watch this vid... this and the pups :D
It just lays on the floor the rest of the video xD
Poor Santa
'Ol Saint Nick takin' a stage dive right at the word driving, I see
But then santa comes back in 1:30
There's anothe one where the leg falls off the keyboard and they don't give a toss lol
That cascade of notes by David T. Walker at the beginning is pure magic !
Theo Katzman swag level is through the roof.
Also, if Theo sees this comment, please sing more songs on the next Vulfpeck album. Your voice is beautiful.
Guess what...
This song never fails to put me in the best mood possible
very catchy song, but I must admit what keeps me coming back is those puppers. they embody the joy of christmas very well
THIS IS THE ULTIMATE JAM IM NOT EVEN JOKING WHEN I TELL YOU THIS IS THE LITERAL BEST SONG I HAVE EVER HEARD. ALSO THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS A MIXTURE OF HILARIOUS AND AWESOME AND I LOVE BOTH OF THOSE THINGS. YAY MUSIC.
It's crazy that this song is 9 years old. I doesn't feel like that much time has passed.
Came here from a Drumeo video. First timer here.
If you want to check out more Vulf from a drum point of view, try Adrienne & Adrienne which is my favourite Theo drum performance. And Jack said his own favourite drum performance was on the original 2012 Joey Dosik - Runnning Away.
I appreciate your comment very much!@@AfferbeckBeats
This songs did not disappoint! Love Theo' drumming.@@AfferbeckBeats
Same, from the Eloy vídeo, and this song is amazing
There's no turning back, once you listen to Vulfpeck, you can't stop listening to it over and over again! Your soul is no longer yours, Vulfpeck has it now. 🤣🤣🤣
The Drummer has one of the best voices I have heard in ages! More of this please!
This song is all about those bicep bells
... and the popped collar
Had to keep the sun off his neck somehow! I'm more impressed with the munted ride cymbal...
Digging them!!!
Stratton has some of the best dance moves to ever grace this earth.
It's Sunday, December 1st.
It begins.
Let me tell you, this drum part is really tricky on its own, but Theo manages to SING while playing it, which is absoutely next level. As a drummer myself (among other things) I can't even begin to explain how good Vulfs are.
The Vulf must invite Stevie Wonder to jam some time around.
i wish LA was as appealing as it is in this song
bige parts of it are, yes.
But the traffic? Hell nah.
There’s a lot of homelessness and drugs
Here because of Eloy Casagrande :)
Same here.. 😊
Same here dude
me 3
Same bro
Lol what did he do
Ok, it's official, Vulfpeck are my favourite band. SERIOUSLY FUNKY in a NON SERIOUS WAY! You guys are ACE! Please let me sing on one of your songs.
This is what all holiday music should strive to be.
CAN'T.
STOP.
LISTENING!
Literally the best Christmas song ever. Thank you so much Vulfpeck.
Thank you, Dodie, for sending me here
Dodie's minor cover is 💯💯💯💯
Y E S
I'm in LA. Gonna blast this outside all day on Christmas. Or call in to every radio station in LA and ask them to play this.
I love this freaking song so much. One of the few songs I love getting stuck in my head!
Love this song. All I can think of is Levon Helm when I see Theo singing and playing those drums.
As a novice bassist, where joe's at right now is what I'd give my current life plans up to do if I had the skill.
Keep going bro, Joe doesn't play anything too technically difficult. Just amazing feel and tone.
bochafish I understand. It just feels like I have so much to learn and I don't feel like I'm making much progress.
It feels like that at times, but with hard work, passion, and dedication you can make some insane progress in just 1 year
You got to practice, he had to start somewhere too
Joe understands the language of music more than he plays anything difficult. Practice, practice, and feel. Then, once you get to the point where you're comfortable, feel, feel, practice.
The only Christmas song I could (and do) listen to all year round without feeling like an idiot . Such a cool vibe going on .
02:34 to 02:46 is pure gold.
00:00 to 03:03 is pure gold. XD
David's guitar playing!!!! The pup and Jack's ::ahem:: "dancing"! Joe's crisp, P.E.R.F.E.C.T. bass! Theo's beard!!!!! Everything about this is stellar!
This is the best song😁😄😃😀😊
Lyrics :
On Christmas morning, on Christmas day
Kris Kringle's driving a Chevrolet
He left his reindeer, he went down south
He just had to see what it's all about
Wrapping presents out in the sun
Stuffing stockings, having some fun
Reading, writing, Christmas is here
Cali-fornia, Yuletide cheer
All the little children and all the big children, it's Christmas (in L.A.)
All the ladies and all the little babies, it's Christmas (in L.A.)
Even the gentlemen, every single one of them, Christmas (in L.A.)
In L.A.
Oh, everyone around the world
Every boy and every girl
It's time to say
It's time to say
It's time to say
All the little children and all the big children, it's Christmas (in L.A.)
All the ladies and all the little babies, they were singing in the room (in L.A.)
Even the gentlemen, every single one of them, Christmas (in L.A.)
In L.A.
All the little children and all the big children, it's Christmas (in L.A.)
All the ladies and all the little babies, it's Christmas (in L.A.)
Even the gentlemen, every single one of them, Christmas (in L.A.)
You gotta get down to Los Angeles
Cause this year, that's where Santa is
You gotta get down to Los Angeles
Cause this year, that's where Santa is
You gotta get down to Los Angeles
Cause this year, that's where Santa is
You gotta get down to Los Angeles
Cause this year, that's where Santa is, yeah
You gotta get down to Los Angeles
Cause this year, that's where Santa is, yeah (YEAH!)
I remember listening to this all the time , such nostalgic memories.
I just saw the Home Free cover of this song, which I absolutely loved, and had to come see the original. Love this one, too. I especially love your dancing doggie. Woot!
Theo's beard is possibly the best Christmas gift
I watched the WHOLE ad because I love these guys!
that low res shot of (presumably) Jack shirtless bouncing a basketball next to a Chevy HHR on the street is now what I immediately think of when I think of LA. It’s just such an LA thing to me, even though I’ve never been outside LAX
That shot captured LA so perfectly.
@@GeneralLee131 you guys like the chevy HHR? I now understand the conservatives who call y'all sickos. HollyWEIRD is right
The dog at 0:22 is doing the Cory Wong hip move.
Also, best original Christmas song I’ve heard in a long time.
I love those dog loops so muchhh :3
Can't stop listening to that song and all the other Vulfpeck songs.......
This and “This Christmas” are probably the best Christmas songs ever…
Everytime i wanna cover the track with my bass i can't. Just watching the video make me stop, they are so...captivating
Superb musicianship and engineering! I don't get it. Why are they not famous?
They're famous to me! :)
+John Wick - more accurately, it's because they're experimental funk in a world that's decided that it only wants the kitsch of funk and feel of disco - they don't want the real thing anymore, just the memory of it
I mean, Get Lucky and Treasure were there, but thing is, it's were there, the music scene these days feels funk-free now
X : DC
italics didn't work
I feel these guys could provide the music for Bruno Mars. Not the biggest fan of his but I respect him and his band and Bruno is definitely inspired by 70's funk (aswell as 80's hip hop etc). And Bruno is of course huge.
Imagine the collaboration!

I hope that your amazing music reaches more and more people every year and every Christmas. Big fan of your music and creativity! Keep up the great work! Happy holidays!
Christmas🎉🎉
Just heard this in Dollface, glad I looked it up! Love me some Vulfpeck!
This is my new favorite shit, good shit guys, keep up.
merry Christmas yall
That dog gets it.
That bassline is perfect.
The bridge cowbell addition was revolutionary
I've had to deal with my mom putting on the same 5 Christmas albums for the last 30 years. this year, when the family all gets together, I'm putting this on repeat all day.
Merry Christmas everyone. Thankful for Jack and Vulfpeck always.
Oh no. It’s still a couple weeks away from Christmas season and I’ve already got this song on repeat.
Such a wonderful song! It's in my all time favorite Christmas songs!
I love how they drove an hour out of LA to play drums next to a tiny patch of snow.
Seriously, this deserves to be the #1 on every top-list on earth this holiday! It's so crazy groovy!
I want this to blow up and get huge. So great!
nice to hear you again
Okay. So every now and then I'll remember this video exists and come here immediately to offset my debts with the universe. I've now set this as my home page.
Por favorrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, como me puede gustar esta canción!!! Si hasta el video tipo serie B, está bueno.
Merry Vulfmas to all!
Jack's reaction at the end is both priceless and appropriate.
I just heard the instrumental track to this song as background music to This American Life on NPR. Just when I thought y'all couldn't get any cooler.
saying I'm addicted to this is putting it mildly.
this video and this song make me smile. and so nostalgic
Merry Christmas Y'all
I blast this in my car with the windows down when we have nice weather in canada.
I love this song!
OMG I Looove this song ANYTIME OF YEAR
What a poignant release. The perfect culmination and send off of all the ep’s that came before, and a bringing so much hype for the album era
best Christmas song I have heard in along time and not cheesy like most of the commercial crap I hear , you can tell these guys are real musicians and really love music :-)
Our marching band has this as our stretch song. We listen to it every rehearsal, and at first we were confused and didnt like it, but its grown on us and we love it ❤
Drumming from My home town of Taos!! So good to see my backyard again...
わんこちゃん
動きかわいい。
演出最高。
That backflip is pretty killer...
I have to say that Home Free's cover of this song brought me here and it was totally worth it 😁😁
THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN FELLAS
One of the best Christmas jams I’ve ever heard!
Same. Just found it
Great Christmas tune form Vulfpeck.
Listening to this song 10 months before christmas
pro move
Here from 80/20 drummer.
KILLER tune!
I'm listening to this in April just because this is awesome :D
New favorite Christmas carol....
Another year another christmas let's goooooooo!
The christmas bells makes this song so christmassy...
argentina futbol lost with france in a world cup, i was so bad, but in another channel i was listen this song..... WOOOOO!!! AUTOMATICALLY I RECOVER MY GOOD HUMOR!! IS SO GOOD!
THANKS I REALLY LOVE THIS SONG!
SALUDOS DESDE BUENOS AIRES!

forgot how damn good this is
heres a reminder to listen again!
YESSS LISTENING TO THIS ON 2020 CHRISTMAS IS REALLY MAKING THINGS BETTER
Are these guys channeling Stevie Wonder? What the hell. These guys Make My Day Better.
This will forever be on my Christmas playlists.
It's funky and catchy and features Theo as Desert Santa. What more could you want? Great job guys.
Merry Christmas all, Vulfpeck was my present this year!
Theo sounds and looks exactly like Kenny Loggins in this video.
definitely best x-mas song for sure!!!
