Today, of course, is the most important day of the whole holiday season: Yuletide story deadline day!

So have some holiday music in honor of PANIC, both yuletide- and general end-of-December related:
Feist - Please Be Patient.mp3
In honor of the poor, poor Yuletide servers, another from the Colbert Christmas special. This is my roommates' favorite track from the soundtrack. They would have it on loop for hours if I let them. They are *insane*.
Yogi Yorgesson - I Yust Go Nuts At Christmas.mp3
Speaking of going nuts.
This is a guy who apparently did comedy as a broad parody of a Scandinavian immigrant, because apparently there was a time when there was a market for that? But the accent is bizarrely mesmerizing, and the lyrics are perhaps the most accurate description of Christmas ever committed to song.
Trans-Siberian Orchestra - A Mad Russian's Christmas.mp3
Probably my favorite version of the Nutcracker, it's just so evocatively frantic.
Carrie Underwood - Jesus Take The Wheel.mp3
SHUT UP I LIKE THIS SONG. Unironically even. 'cause there are times when I do just want to throw my hands up in the air.

*blinks* "Please Be Patient" is quite mislabeled.

Huh. You're right.

I wonder if the other Colbert Christmas ones I've put up are.

*checks* "What's So Funny?" is wrong too! The others look okay. .. I didn't mislabel them on the CD I gave you, did I?

You didn't label at all on the CD you gave me; I think when I ripped the CD I went by the order on an online tracklisting, which must have not matched your CD. (And then when I filled in the tags I went by what the song sounded like, so I didn't realize anything was wrong.)

Hmm, I just burned to the CD in the order iTunes automatically set them up. Oh well.

Answer: yes.

Upload is fixed now, I'll do an errata with the music post tonight.
