Written by Randy Brooks, the song was originally performed by Elmo Shropshire in 1979 under the brand of Elmo and Patsy, the double act Shropshire had with his then-wife Patsy Trigg. Lyrics The lyrics tell the story of the speaker's grandmother celebrating Christmas Eve with her family and venturing out into a snowstorm while intoxicated on alcoholic eggnog and without her medication. She is found dead the next morning, apparently having been trampled by Santa Claus and his reindeer. The speaker's grandfather shows little concern over his wife's demise and spends the holiday watching football on television, drinking beer and playing card games with the speaker's Cousin Mel, while the rest of the family wonders if her gifts should be opened or returned. Later, the family has a goose for dinner, and the song closes with a warning that Santa is unfit to carry a driver's license. In the music video, in which Elmo play ...

The Family (band)
The Family was a band formed by Prince, and one of the first on Prince's record label, Paisley Park Records. The band reformed as fDeluxe in 2011. This band should not be confused with a 1970s Minneapolis R&B band of the same name. History The band's origins started with the disintegration of The Time in 1984. Lead singer Morris Day had left the band to pursue a solo career and guitarist Jesse Johnson became the de facto band leader. Prince suggested restructuring the band with new member Paul Peterson to head the group, but Johnson opposed. A few of the Time's newer members followed Johnson to join his backing band (called Jesse Johnson's Revue). As The Time had served as an outlet for Prince to release more music, he wanted to continue this avenue, presenting the remaining members of the Time, Jellybean Johnson, Jerome Benton, and Paul Peterson, with his new project. They agreed to become a new band called the Family, with Peterson renamed "St. Paul" as the frontman a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
