Oregonlive.com has picked Springsteen's "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" as its holiday Song of the Day and posted the version Springsteen performed at the 1978 Winterland concert. That's the version I referred to in my recent post about my family's Springsteen Christmas tradition, "Bruce Springsteen's 'Santa' always brings Christmas home."

Nothing brings a smile faster than this song. The ho-ho-ing, the fun you can hear Bruce and the Band having, the anticipation of the jingle bells, the rockin' sax solo just bubble over and you can't help feeling the joy. Just in time the jingle bells begin -- Merry Christmas!
