Chris Young talks about his holiday plans this year. (:14)
“I’m excited I get to be home. I got to be home for Thanksgiving, and then I actually, literally, had to fly to a show after that, so bein’ able to just hang out with the family a little bit and give everybody gifts. I’ve still got some stuff to pick out, but it’s lookin’ good.”
Chris Young says he has one holiday fave that’s must-watch viewing at Christmastime. (:13)
“I have to watch the Claymation Rudolph, or it’s not Christmas. That was like our Christmas movie around the house. You know, some people have the Charlie Brown Christmas and Frosty the Snowman. I can miss all of those. As long as I see the Claymation Rudolph one time, I’m good.”
In his childhood, Chris Young had some concerns about Bumble, the Snow Monster in his favorite holiday classic, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. (:26)
“I was actually afraid of the abominable snowman when I was a kid. Like, there’s that whole scene where — which is not scary at all now — but the scene where he comes up over the top of the mountains and his hair flies up and he looks just as goofy as can be, like, as a grown man sayin’ that, but as a kid, I was scared to death of the abominable snowman. And anytime I got left in the car by myself, like if my mom went into the shopping center, it was wintertime, I was afraid the abominable snowman was gonna come get me. It was terrible.”
