Yeah, I heard about this. Always a fan of Christmas songs. Plus Sufjan's gonna put out some of his own originals. Makes me wanna put up a Christmas tree and decorate the house while this, rather these, albums are playing. Though, I wish Sufjan would put out another state. I heard Oregon, Rhode Island, and New Jersey were ones he's working on.
Rhode Island will just be an E.P. ;-)
I listened to the last two discs this morning. So far, my favorite track is "Get behind me, Santa." Pretty fun tune. Some of the stuff seems pretty repetitive at first listen and some seems more Sufjan than Christmas, but it's still pretty cool.
Ding. Recieved this tonight as an early Christmas gift from my wife.

Was away in Wisconsin when my copy came. Good stuff. I love "We're goin' to the country" and "it's Christmas, let's be glad" and "lo, how a rose eer blooming."
For anyone interested in checking this out, Sufjan Stevens' "That was the Worst Christmas Ever!" is the free iTunes download this week.
