This season, AT&T is presenting classic Christmas songs like Deck the Halls, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Jingle Bells and the 12 Days of Christmas as a series of fun 'Emoji Carols.'
This video for the 12 Days of Christmas interprets the song in a modern way, presenting the third day of gifts, the French hens, as chickens carrying French fries, and the four calling birds as penguins with phones. As it's been noted a number of times in other songs and pop culture, the practicality of getting overwhelmed with these gifts would actually be quite chaotic. Playing along with this idea, the AT&T ad gets a little crazier as it progresses, where sparking rings turn into donuts and shocked emoji faces start popping up randomly.
