Lauren's already kicked it off in the comments on the latest Mayfair chat, but, since it's December 1st and therefore the day I officially start listening to Christmas music of my own accord,* let's take a minute to share a couple of faves, shall we?

Up first is my personal favourite from A Muppet Christmas Carol, the Ghost of Christmas Present's song, "It Feels Like Christmas:"

Second is a new one, as I oh-so-recently discovered that Sufjan  Stevens has five (5!) Christmas albums.

*I also do this as a control against the horrid Christmas music I might otherwise be exposed to.
