Trivia

 * Some of the songs in this album are featured as instrumental versions in the special as background music in such places as the mall or Muffy's house.
 * "Perfect Christmas" is slightly altered for the album release, most notably Arthur's opening narration.
 * This album is available for download on Rhapsody.
 * None of D.W.'s solo songs are the actual carols, instead featuring what she apparently believes to be the lyrics. These lyrics are not transcribed in the included liner notes booklet, unlike the other songs.

Holiday greetings from Arthur and D.W. (from the liner notes)
Arthur: Hi everyone! Welcome to my second CD! It has holiday songs from around the world on it, and some songs from my Christmas special, Arthur's Perfect Christmas, which I wanted to call "Perfect Arthur's Christmas."

D.W.: But I wouldn't let you.

Arthur: D.W., I'm talking to my fans. Why don't you go play with Mary Moo Cow?

D.W.: Okay, okay.

Arthur: The CD also has some of our favorite Christmas carols on it...

D.W.: Who's Carol?

Arthur: D.W., be quiet.

D.W.: I won't say another word.

Arthur: Anyway, I hope you have as much fun listening to it as my friends and I had making it! Have a great holiday everyone!

D.W.: And a happy "moo" year!

Arthur: D.W.!

D.W.: That was Mary Moo Cow, not me!
