I would have used the original song, and had a voice over at the end.
"Christmas time can be magically stressful. McDonald's is here when you need a break from all of the stress... You Deserve a break today. "

Haha! I suppose I am in the minority and just a grumpy old grinch, but that vid did a pretty good job summarizing what I think about the holiday season.
For many years now, I cannot wait until January gets here.

Laughing at your customers because they buy crap.

The sad part is, they could have just used the original song with the video, and it would have worked and even might have won some awards. But the vile commies in the marketing department, really really REALLY wanted Christians to know how much they hate them and Christmas.
No they aren't that smart, the stupidity has blinded them to pragmatic common sense.
