Mixtape    A Very Kevin Christmas

It’s that time of year again. My gift to you is a collection of some of my favourite non-traditional Christmas songs that I’ve compiled over the years, along with something from the Star Wars Christmas album, because that’s just too hilarious to ignore. Enjoy.

I. Ca Va Cool does not receive fees from third-party advertisers. However, we are shameless self-promoters, as evidenced by blatant Wikipedia manipulation and our chronic inner struggle: to twitter or not to twitter. All banners are internal to the site and promote our feature articles. All hosting fees are slowly digested by the Ca Va Cool team, who do so because making this website is too damn fun. II. We post music files for evaluation purposes only. That's an order! The goal is to share and promote good music. If you dig what you hear, buy music and go to concerts. Packaging is cool, vinyl is warm, and stationary head bobbing is a way of life. If you hold copyright to a song we've featured and the internet has got you down, let us know and we'll remove it right away.
