I Am Santa Claus

Amazon.com
Looking for irreverence in your holiday nut mix? Bob Rivers does such a great job of social, political, and seasonal satire under the guise of many a familiar holiday tune that he's lucky he hasn't been run over by a reindeer. Rivers apes all the department-store Santas (sung to the tune of "Here Comes Santa Claus") with "There's Another Santa Claus," lambastes "Teddy Kennedy the Red-Nosed Senator," and sends up Marlon Brando's Godfather in the inspired "A Letter to Santa," which warns of Santa's movement into mob territory. There are a few clunkers among the moving and snoozing targets, but Rivers nearly always elicits a chuckle. The biggest yuks, though, come on the title track as he reaches back to Black Sabbath's "I Am Ironman" classic to turn dear old Santa into a heavy-metal monster. Call it "Headnog"--and get it for the unholy rollers on your list. --Martin Keller

Bob River's is the BEST!.......2007-07-23

Bob River's is a very talented guy. I own all his CD's and I listen to them over and over again. My husband complains that he's tired of listening to the same 5 Christmas CD's so I emailed Mr. Rivers and asked him if he was planning to release a new CD in the future. He responded (I was surprised he took the time to answer my email!) and said that he was hoping to release a new Christmas CD in a year! I can hardly wait! If you like comedy, I would recommend all 5 of his Xmas CD's.

Bob Rivers Santa.......2007-02-06

Very twisted and very funny. A real must for the Christmas Grinch

Truly twisted.......2007-01-12

This is great for unstuffing the holidays. My teen really loved it. She just couldn't stop laughing. Bob Rivers takes old favorites and gives them new words to stop you in your tracks.

bad lang........2007-01-10

I was looking for funny christmas music not just a bunch of cursing.

Many good, humorous songs.......2007-01-04

I Laughed at every tune on this CD, from "What if God Smoked Cannibis" to "Manger 6". The selection was all songs I knew well and could immediately see the twisted change to. I would recommend this to anyone who did not hate humor.
