17: Dean Martin's drunken version of "Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer"

Please listen to this song immediately. Before the first 30 seconds  a tanked-on-5-Martinis Dean Martin refers to Rudolf as "Rudy." Then, around 2:13-2:15, he starts to sing in a German accent, with some German vocabulary words ("guide mine sleigh tonight"). I picture Dean Martin: a drink in one hand, snapping the other, a perpetual wink of the right eye, raising his eyebrows and his shoulders to the the beat. This song is pretty much as smooth as is gets.
