Do you know the name of it and which album it's from? I have two TSO CDs, but I can't find it on either of them.

From snope's link: Trans-Siberian Orchestra's "Wizards in Winter" (from The Lost Christmas Eve album).

I love TSO! I know a guy who did vocals on two of their CDs.... *memories* :05:
 
Hey, thanks Lisa! I'll know where to look for it now. :D
 
This video is now featured on a Miller Lite Christmas advert...
 
I ran across a link of the same house doing Jingel Bells, but it was not nearly as entertaining.

Looks like the show is over, tho...
Car crash, heavy traffic turn out Christmas light show

DEERFIELD TWP. — Sheriff's deputies asked the owner who lit up his house with 25,000 Christmas lights synched to music to turn off the display after a traffic accident Tuesday night.

Deerfield Twp. resident Carson Williams agreed to shut down his holiday decorations indefinitely.

Williams told a Cincinnati television station that sheriff's deputies could not reach the traffic accident because of the traffic lined up in his neighborhood.

The display caught attention across the nation on network TV and on the Internet because the lights on the Williams house and filling their yard are synchronized by computer with music broadcast to car radios. There are three songs in the 12-minute display: Frosty the Snowman by the Jackson 5; God Bless the USA by Lee Greenwood and Wizards of Winter by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Williams turned his display on the week of Thanksgiving and motorists have lined up between 6 and 10 p.m. ever since.

For the time being, the only place to view the Williams' display will be online.

"He told us if we start having traffic problems that he would shut the display down for a while," Warren County sheriff's Lt. Ed Petrey said Wednesday morning.

Two cars collided in a minor accident at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday on Simpson Creek Drive, which leads to Winding Creek Court, where the Williams live near Mason in southern Warren County. No one was injured.

Williams is an electrical engineer who said his family spent about $10,000 on the display. He had promised his neighbors they would shut it down if there were problems.

"If I get a single complaint I'll shut it down," Carson had said Monday night.

He could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

Here is a nice Dolphin show: here
 
That guy lives within 3 miles of my house in Mason, Ohio. He did it for fun, ran him $10,000 and always said he would shut it off if a neighbor complained....and they didnt. He had the sound put over an FM frequency so it was blaring thru the neighborhood. However, he did shut it off about a week or two before Christmas because an EMS vehicle tried to get thru to deal with an emergency and got backed up. He was also on the Today Show before Christmas.
