Best Sufjan Stevens Xmas Tracks

Two boxed sets, 10 discs, just under 120 songs. As much as I'd like to dominate my in-laws' stereo for six straight hours Thursday (their tradition is put up the tree after dinner and put on a reel-to-reel tape of a choir recording from the 60s, sigh) while I drink as much as I can without looking like I'm trying to get drunk to make the time pass, I should probably keep my mix CD succinct.

So anyone familiar with these sets? Can you give your top 10 or 20 favorites?

Sufjan who?

I know you're out there, you Sufjan-lovin' motherf***ers.

I got sick of SS's music for a while, and have conflicted feelings about his religious nature. Apparently, so does Sufjan! With song titles like “Even the "Earth Will Perish and the Universe Give Way”, and “Justice Delivers Its Death,” and stickers and album art features a cat-ridin' skeleton, and a Grim Reaper skeleton wearing a Santa suit, he veers between gleefully morbid and crushing seasonal affective disorder depression. On the gleeful side, the promo video for "Mr. Frosty Man" features a snowman who takes on a horde of zombies (including a Santa zombi) with a chainsaw and shotgun. That's so metal! The liner notes essay of the latest box set end with the words, “Advent is ultimately about death. The end is near. You are going to die. Happy Holidays.” Will Stevens' next album delve into death metal?

Oh I get it, Christmas is a state of mind

Fastnbulbous, please recommend the track that sounds most like Tom Petty's "Christmas All Over Again." I have spotify open and I am ready to pull the trigger.

I don't think I like the newer set of Christmas songs very much. Skipping around the older set on spotify, I'd choose:

Hey Guys! It's Christmas Time!
Put the Lights on the Tree
Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing
The Little Drummer Boy
Come On! Let's Boogey to the Elf Dance!
