Hooray for Tuesday!

Tuesdays are my favorite days of the week. Not Friday. Not Saturday. Definitely NOT Monday. Tuesday, yes, Tuesday is my favorite. Why, you ask? Tuesday is the day iTunes posts new songs! (Also known as the Day the Music Junkie Gets Her Fix, but 'Tuesday' is easier to enunciate so let's just go with that.)

After pouring a cup o' java this morning, I hurriedly surfed over to iTunes and was dee-lighted with what was there. Squeal! Oh, it is glorious. It is wonderful. It is Christmas personified. It's the Straight No Chaser holiday album!

Straight No Chaser, the YouTube sensation and IU a capella group, was signed by Atlantic Records and today, Tuesday, was the release of their holiday album. Hooray! You can find the album, Holiday Spirits, on iTunes or amazon or anywhere else fine holiday music is sold. Look for their rendition of the 12 days to appear on our Christmas playlist, too. In the meantime, here's the original YouTube video for immediate enjoyment and giggles:

Wow! That's awesome! Is the arrangement original for the group? I love it! They remind me of the King's Singers. Thanks for posting this!
