Music Monday: Its Christmas Time!

Hello all you Mondains. Today marks the first Monday of December and that means that it is also the first Monday for December doubles!!! That's right all of December I will be doing double posts. You may be asking yourself what this is all about; where's the catch? The catch is this; at least half of the doubles will be Sufjan Stevens... in fact all of the doubles will be Sufjan Stevens! This may lead you to ask why again and my answer is because Sufjan has an entire five disk Christmas album that MUST BE HEARD!

You may be tired of Christmas songs by now but before you roll your eyes and go on to the next blog you should have a listen. As with all of Sufjan's music he strives to tell the story in a different way. I love his songs. Even the ones that sound similar to their original form have a special Sufjan touch.

So to kick off the December Doubles here is Sufjan Stevens with a Christmas classic: Lo! How a Rose E're Blooming.



And now a not so Christmas classic: Did I Make You Cry on Christmas Day? (Well You Deserved It).



I hope you enjoyed but if not there are 6 more songs left to go. Pity me because I have to choose which ones to leave out. Sad.

Until next time, keep your roses blooming.
