Narration
  Running Time: 0:19

What Child Is This?
  Running Time: 3:52
  Comments: by John Jorgenson (of The Desert Rose Band) and Jann Browne. This is actually track 15 though it says 14 on the disc. Running time listed as 3:52 on the disc because it's including the running time for track 14 on this disc as well (even though the math difference doesn't equate between listed time & CD reader displays).
A Cowboy's Christmas

  Comments: by Wayne Newton. This is actually track 16 though it says 15 on the disc.

Angels We Have Heard On High
  Running Time: 4:15
  Comments: by Merry Clayton. This is actually track 20 though it says 19 on the disc. Narration at the beginning of the track is by Dick Clark (though his appearance is only credited inside the CD booklet, not on the outer disc packaging).
Ave Maria
  Running Time: 3:58
  Comments: by Barry Manilow. This is actually track 21 though it says 20 on the disc.
Narration
  Running Time: 0:49
  Comments: by Mr. James Stewart. This one has it's own track number (#22) on the disc. "Narration by Mr. James Stewart" is printed after "Ave Maria" but not as a track, which led some to believe the narration may have been at the end of that track.
