> Frozen by Viaa is not availabe on Spotify.  Click here for a still-framed video on youtube. 

>> Eskimo by pH Balance is from an artist out of North Carolina named Pam Howe.  Sorry, this will be a bit hard to find

>>> This version of O Holy Night was featured on the excellent, but short-lived TV series Studio 60 on The Sunset Strip.  This happened the first holiday after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans and proceeds from it's download went to help the Tipitina's Foundation (famous music club in NOLA).  A bit hard to find these days but click here for the video of the TV show scene where it was featured (with show dialogue).
