    It always bothers me that the song assumes I know all the other reindeer, but then has to ask if I recall the most famous reindeer of all.

      It’s like if someone assumed you knew all about Joe, Katherine, Rebbie, Jackie and Randy and then they’re like “but did you ever hear about this kid MICHAEL Jackson??”

      It’s especially annoying, because this particular reindeer didn’t even actually exist at all until this song.

      It’s literally saying “this thing I am making up right now is going to be super popular.” It’s quite the called shot.
