Song of the Day: Snoopy's Christmas

The Royal Guardsmen were 5 guys from Ocala, Florida. They recorded a quartet of songs inspired by Snoopy the Beagle in the "Peanuts" comic strip between 1967...

Snoopy’s Christmas by The Royal Guardsmen. I had never heard or even knew this song existed until yesterday. It came up on Youtube while listening to Christmas music and it seems to be a cross of a Christmas song and a song about Snoopy fighting in WW1 lol. The actual lyrics tell a story about Snoopy being a fighter pilot and fighting the Red Baron on the night before Christmas, and for the Red Baron to actually end up sparing Snoopy and not shooting him down but actually forcing him to land his plane and them offering him a Christmas toast and telling him “Merry Christmas, mein friend.” Lol again I can’t believe this is a real song, but I do have to admit that it’s quite catchy.
