Correction to the title of the video, the year on that single is 1961, not 1964, which makes the drum part in the song all the more interesting...
Yes, it's a throwaway holiday song from the early 60s, but listen to what the drummer is doing...
Underneath the polka-flavored doo-wop, there's a metal drummer who doesn't even know he's a metal drummer...
Linked from that video was some recent Megadeth, and I hear a very similar drummer in that track. I'm glad Mr. Mustaine didn't go for the polka-flavored doo-wop on his tune. :smug:
