The Rebel Black Dot Christmas Song of the Day
Sufjan Stevens, "Christmas in the Room" via iTunes (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: Holiday cheer is all well & good, but every now & again a somber, even sad Christmas song is what's called for.

Bonus! Song of the Day
Letters to Cleo, "Cruel to Be Kind" from 10 Things I Hate about You: Music from the Motion Picture (T.L.A.M.)

Commentary: Fifteen years on, 10 Things I Hate about You remains a brilliant film, one of my top two or three favorite cinematic adaptations of the Bard, with a brilliant soundtrack, showcasing the best aspects of popular music in the 1990s.
