Countdown to Christmas: Dominick The Christmas Donkey (1960-2019)

 "Dominick The Christmas Donkey" is a holiday novelty recorded by Lou Monte in 1960. Nearly 60 years later, a partially animated lyric video, centered around a snow white donkey, was issued by Rhino Records. "Dominick" has been getting airplay every year around this time, and should put a smile on your face.


In the context of the song, Monte claims the reindeer can't climb the hills of Italy. It remains to be seen whether or not that's really true.
