Back Door Santa | Christmas themed
“Back Door Santa” is a song originally performed by Clarence Carter and released on a compilation album Soul Christmas in 1968. The track is in a 12-bar blues format.
The lyrics are sexually suggestive, not having much to do with Christmas as a holiday. Run-D.M.C. sampled the song for “Christmas in Hollis”. A cover was released by the band Jet in late 2003 on the single “Rollover DJ”.
In late December 2006, The Black Crowes released a free download version of this song, complete with a horn section. This track can be heard in the film Mission: Impossible III.
The song also appeared on the CBS sitcom “How I Met Your Mother.” Season 2 Episode 11: “How Lily Stole Christmas”
