I felt like the appropriate words for this comic post should come from the Veggie Tales “Dance of the Cucumber”, where I would be the tomato.

Larry: “Pepino bailarin, pepino bailarin, pepino bailarin”
Bob: “Dancing cucumber, dancing cucumber, dancing cucumber”
Larry: “Baila, baila, ya!”
Bob: “Dance, dance, yeah!”
Larry: “Miren al tomate”
Bob: “Look at the tomato”
Larry: “no es triste?”
Bob: “Isn’t it sad?”
Larry: “El no puede bailar.”
Bob: “He can’t dance.”
Larry: “!Pobre tomate!”
Bob: “Poor tomato!”
Larry: “El deberia poder bailar”
Bob: “He wishes he could dance”

Casimir Pulaski Day and Chicago from the album Illinois (CD/MP3′s) were tracks that I had bookmarked and given thumbs up to in Pandora, and I listen to them a lot. When Crave posted about Sufjan’s latest free MP3 availalbe on Download.com’s music site, I immediately downloaded and gave it a listen. The song is titled “That Was the Worst Christmas Ever!“, and is a melodic mix of acoustic guitar, banjo, and piano. The lyrics also help create vivid images as certain events are described. This song is certainly not a traditional Christmas song – in fact, it is one that I plan to listen to all year long. I highly recommend not only giving this song a listen, but search out the rest of Sufjan’s other work. More people need to know about his music and his talents.

Update:

Added Amazon MP3 Clip Widget. Give the tracks a listen below!
