    IMO…
    The only other (kitten) recording “Santa Baby”, that might have given Ms Kitt a run for her money would have been the ONE and ONLY Marilyn Monroe!!! Unfortunately, there’s no evidence of this recording ever happening.
    Funny however… this song seams like it was meant for Ms Monroe.
    Perhaps it was offered to her but maybe she turned it down…??? Otherwise… the “Santa Babies” that have tried until now, could only come a close second to Eartha Kitt! (Sorry girls!)

    Eartha left earth last Christmas ironically! She was a sexy South Carolinian all the way. T-minus three years until we retire – again – but this time in the Palmetto State’s beachy Grand Strand! Since Santa only comes once a year, know wonder Mrs. Claus never had any kids…

    We also lost Dean Martin on Christmas Day as well. Some of us are getting
    OLDER during the Yuletide Season, eh? ‘Santa Baby’ and ‘Baby It’s Cold
    Outside’ really connect with the baby boomers and old school Spike Jones & Mitch Miller Christmastime listeners that love feeling YOUNG!

    It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Eartha is a good stocking stuffer and we lost her a few CHRISTMAS DAY’s ago?
