Pretty! I hadn't heard this song before. Yes, this song sounds like Christmas to me, although I probably wouldn't have made the connection without the song's title. You're right that this music has a certain fierceness to it. Maybe it makes sense to give his song a bit of a frightening feeling as the stories are a little bit disturbing - sneaking in at night through the chimney. I think Santa is usually depicted like a holy person, with all joy and sacred action. I think you're right that this one gives him a scary edge.

Cabe, thank you so much for listening to my entry and your point of view about Santa. Yes, indeed, the whole story is a bit disturbing. When we were children, we were told that Saint Nicolas had two sides, and which one he would show depended on our behaviour. The adults used to say that we will get just coal instead of presents if we don't behave well. But it is like blackmailing, isn't it? 😂😂😂
Probably the composer of this piece also knew the story :D
