Notes
- "Goodbye Charles" is a piano instrumental inspired by Vince Guaraldi's compositions from A Charlie Brown Christmas
- "Darlin' (Christmas Is Coming)" was performed live as far back as the 2001 Christmas tour as a straight mid-tempo folk/pop song. The Snow Angels recording was drastically re-arranged into a swing-style arrangement and performed this way on the 2006 tour.
- "White Horse" was written and first performed in 2004; a live version appears on Live From Nowhere, Volume 1.
- "All I Ever Get For Christmas Is Blue" was first performed live on the 2001 Christmas tour, and was regularly performed on each subsequent Christmas tour.
- The title “North Pole Man” was inspired by a drawing by Polly Wilson, Age 7, called “North Pole Man Holding A Map Looking For A Warm Place.”
- The front cover illustration is by Clinton Reno, who had worked with Over The Rhine previously in designing a tour poster commemorating their 2006 tour with Hem.
