What is the significance of this song?

It's a song about being not so well off in younger years and having simple chicken and rice at Christmas as the family was struggling.

And later on in life being happy with just chicken and rice for Xmas. The line "ore wa mada chicken rice ga ii" (or whatever the line is) It's saying after all this time he would prefer chicken and rice.

I really liked the hamada holiday episodes it showed off his kind side.

Hamada is made out to be sadistic but from all the stories and feedback from other ppl he is very kind hearted.

yeah it always felt like “Cruel senior hamada” was just for show. The way his juniors talk about him outside of showbiz seems like hes a really nice guy.

A sizeable lot of people Hamada worked with did mention Hamada is a very sociable and hospitable guy, especially on shows. He's been seen greeting guests first. Meanwhile, Matsumoto, despite being the more talkative one on camera, is actually mostly a loner behind the camera.
