Relient K Think It's Lovely Weather For A Sleighride Together With You

Ohio punk-poppers Relient K packaged a Christmas EP called Deck The Halls, Bruise Your Hands with their 2003 album Two Lefts Don't Make A Right... But Three Do. The ten-track disc featured goofy originals like "Santa Claus Is Thumbing To Town", a lovely piano-heavy medley of "Silent Night/Away In A Manger" (which leads into the gentle original "I Celebrate The Day") and fast-paced songs like "The Twelve Days Of Christmas." The band added seven more songs to those and released it last holiday season as Let Is Snow, Baby... Let It Reindeer.

One of those new tracks was the classic "Sleigh Ride." Now the group is re-releasing Let It Snow, Baby... Let It Reindeer with three new songs and a fun animated video for "Sleigh Ride" The video finds the band animated as rabbits, and lead singer Matt Theissen is smitten with an ice-skating girl bunny. To help him win her over, the rest of the band commandeer Santa's sleigh. Santa proves to be less than jolly, and creates a monster snowman to get the sleigh back. It's all good fun, like the best of Relient K's music. Watch the video below:
