Keith Richards on why he covered 'Run Rudolph Run': 'It was just done out of sheer fun'

"I mean to me it's the hippest Christmas song that there is," Keith shared on social media. "I mean once again Chuck Berry, beautiful lyrics, a beautiful, joyful feeling about it, and it tells a story short and snappy. What a great track. The sound of it is amazing."

The Stones' Ronnie Wood and the late Ian Stewart appear on Keith's cover, which was released in the late '70s.

Berry's original "Run Rudolph Run" was released in 1958, and peaked at #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2019.
