Bright Eyes-Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
I'm not a big Oberst fan. Really, I'm not. This song, however, is a beautiful arrangement and the Bright Eyed up version of an old classic from his Christmas album. His voice, which tends to get distracting on his studio tracks, is perfect for this sort of piano fronted, pretty female backing vocals ballad. This might even be one of the better indie x-mas tracks out there, and among my favorites.
Speaking of X-mas tracks, there are many, many Christmas compliations from many, many cool MP3 blogs out there. If you haven't already, check out some notable and downloadable and really great ones from the likes of Gorilla Vs. Bear (which includes Feist!), Music For Kids Who Can't Read Good (which includes Jimmy Eat World!), and M3 Online (which includes original album art!)
If you're sitting and waiting patiently, look for the end of the year list (and maybe a few other surprises...) on Monday. Have fun.
