The 20 Songs on my Advent Music Playlist

Last year I created an Advent playlist on Groove Shark. I like Christmas music during Christmas, but Advent music is very distinct from Christmas music, so it needs it's own playlist.

This year, you can listen to all 20 songs, on repeat (if you so desire) just by going to my Groove Shark page! That's right, that magical little link will take you right there and all you have to do is click play. Isn't technology great?

Here is the list for those who want to buy the songs from itunes or get an entire CD. For example, we own the Advent at Ephesus album that was put out last year by the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles. It is beautiful. While you can listen to it online for free, I suggest you buy it and support these wonderful religious so they will make more CDs.
