The commercial where the lady mail carrier runs into Santa when delivering a package. It's a classical piece of music.

Because nothing says Christmas like Beethoven.... 🤔 Love his 6th, but it's an odd choice for this ad.

Guess it really depends on why USPS went with it.

Beethoven’s Sixth, also known as the Pastorale.

Any day where the commercial does not feature some horrid piece of rap music is a good day.

Yup. I was in a fast food joint recently and heard classical and instrumental Christmas music. It was refreshing.

Who doesn’t love Wagner’s “Kill da wabbit”?

Given the post office’s service these days, it should probably be ‘another one bites the dust’

No argument, but, that’s how I feel about the 9th 4th Movement. Ode to Joy.

Loud and sing along!

Afterwards, to go to sleep, Bach’s Goldberg Variations.

You must have attended school when they still gave classical music lessons on the piano.

I know a McDonalds in a less fortunate part of town that pipes in Adult Standards from the 30's, 40's and 50's to chase the Amish Yutes away.

The wannabe Crips are no match for Patti Page and her doggie in the window.

You can learn a lot from Little Einsteins as well.
