This CD of Slovenian X-mas songs is available on Amazon.
Caroling in Slovenia is an old, old, old tradition — mentioned already in the 16th century. It doesn’t seem to be as popular anymore. But it does exist; there’s even a readily available CD to buy.
Some of the titles are a bit, I don’t know, difficult to imagine in a traditionally festive context. I certainly can’t imagine Bing Crosby crooning stuff like Blood from the Butchering (Track 4) or I’m Old and Sick. (Track 25) Although I’d certainly love to hear it.
You can preview some of the carols here at Amazon, or over at Allmusic.
(Thanks Tron!)
