''Keen-eyed observers may note the absence of "[[Move It On]]" from this list, the track originally recorded for the [[KROQ]] Kevin And Bean Christmas CD. This track was never fully completed, as the band scrambled on to complete "The Christmas Song" in time. These listing list only the songs that were finished and mixed down, so "Move It On", along with numerous other songs, remain on master tapes unfinished and unlisted until/unless they reach a "final" state.'' | |||
