Lyrics:
Yo, I run a few searches before the big flight,
To save me more time on this magical night.
I type [sunrise and city] of my last stop,
I got plenty of time before my last drop.
If I don't know the time in a certain city,
I peep it on search before my chimney shimmy.
Tyle [time and town] before I come into town,
To see if Johnny's in bed before I hit ground.
Go Santa, Santa work it!
Go Santa, Santa search it!
But before I go flying through the frosty air,
I do a weather search to decide what to wear.
Mrs. Clause, should I bring my extra warm down jacket?
[Mrs. Clause]: Hmmm, yes. You should definitely pack it.
And please pack these cookies that I baked for you.
Shhhhh! I researched the recipe with recipe view,
And used the low cal filter, I must admit:
I wanna make sure that jacket still fits!
Go Santa, Santa work it!
Go Santa, Santa search it!
Check one, check two: yes I check twice.
Santa's Google Doc called 'Naughty and nice.'
With control+F, I find a name in the doc n',
I hope I don't have to put coal in a stockin'
When I'm cruising in my sleigh with my hands on the reigns,
Voice input is handy, 'cause typing is a pain.
If on a wish list I spot a gift I never heard: schlittschuhe,
I use the translate app to speak the foreign word.
Go Santa, Santa work it!
Go Santa, Santa search it!
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Ho, Ho, Ho, Ho.
Go Santa, Santa work it!
Go Santa, Santa search it!
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Yeah!
Very few things leave me speechless anymore, but this viral video simply entitled "Sexy Santa" has. The promo was created by the Social media company Denizen for the gaming Destructoid.
The Outback Steakhouse and creative ad agency Deutsch, NY create "The 12 Days of Leftovers" just in time for Christmas with singing food from our refrigerators. The online campaign comes complete with a series of talking and singing food web ads to get you to forget the leftovers and head on over to Outback instead.
Below are the "Mystery Mashed Potatoes" and "Slab of Slimy Ham" which is an outtakes reel of talking food bloopers. spots for your viewing pleasure, or you could run to Outback!
Holidays come and go, and then you're stuck with leftovers. Crusty, Fuzzy, Icky, Slimy Leftovers--and those are the ones you can recognize.
Take a break from holiday leftovers this season, and head into Outback Steakhouse for a delicious topped steak instead.
"The outtakes reel — some say there is no higher form of cinema. Just like some say there is no lower form of food than the holiday leftover. As a charter member of the past-their-prime portion club myself, I disagree.
But if you just can't spend another night with your old friend Slab of Slimy Ham, then go ahead into Outback Steakhouse for a real meal. I'll be fine. Really. No, I'm not crying..." — Slab of Slimy Ham.

This Christmas, Vodafone wanted to do something a little different — so they shipped in some cutting-edge laser graffiti technology from Spain and asked Ireland's most talented graffiti artists to paint Christmas messages from their Vodafone Playground Facebook wall on the sides of buildings across Ireland.
Armed with this seriously cool kit the team, including renowned street artist Maser, created spectacular shows in three Irish cities, painting the sides of iconic buildings with lasers, surprising and delighting unsuspecting Christmas shoppers.

Beautiful new campaign for Orelhão Mágico keeps the spirit of Santa Claus alive for a some lucky children in Brazil who came across this Magic Payphone.
Oi, a telecom provider from Brazil, is hoping to make everyone believe in the magic of Christmas one more time. That’s why it created the Magical Payphone, a device that connected kids with Santa Claus. Installed in Rio de Janeiro, the special payphone was available to kids walking by with their parents. Once they made the call, the kids would chat with Santa, who were actually two retired actors from Retiro dos Artistas (an institution that takes care of former artists). But it was much more than a telephone call. Big surprises were prepared for the kids: lost elf's, gifts and even a mapped projection with snow and a choir of kids. Everything to make a great experience for the children and everyone watching.
