Ironically I had a local music station on that plays Christmas music this time of year and the Josh Groban song "Believe" was playing as I watched the video you posted but then also had the Norad Santa Tracker going (testing for when one of my young nieces comes over later) and it has been flying all over Russia (previously all over the South Pacific).
