My soundtrack for this season has been "Songs for Christmas" by Sufjan Stevens.  If you are weary of the usual Christmas renditions, I highly recommend.  If you like Mariah Carey for Christmas, I would avoid it. 

Stevens provides thoughtful renditions of classics (as well as some fun originals) unlike anything I've heard before.  A quiet folk/Americana style aligns well with a theology of humble, earthy incarnation.  The classics can become redundant, but Stevens' approach causes you to hear the words as if for the first time.  Such sounds provide great devotional material for this pre-Christmas week.
