Eartha Kitt - Santa Baby (Official Audio)

[@ferociousgumby]

She's the best because she doesn't over-sing it. Most singers just squirm around and strain to sound seductive. She doesn't have to try. Her voice is like velvet.

As she stepped down, I pulled her hand up and kissed it. She looked down at me and said “Oh…thank you baby!” She then was kind enough to sign a short poem I wrote about her & let me take her photo.

I was fortunate enough to see Miss Kitt in concert a few years before she passed. She came out in a silver lame gown, which left the audience gasping. She proceeded to wow the audience for a full hour and a half. She did this song, and in the preamble, mentioned cheekily that "she had made it a hit before that bitch Madonna".....the audience loved it! She also mentioned that her two favourite foods were steak tartare and Veuve Cliquot champagne.....and thanks to us, she could afford them both. Sadly missed.

I never got the impression that she was singing to the actual Santa. I, personally, think that she's calling her lover Santa since she's totally asking for gifts that most people would think are extravagant. Whether or not he could realistically afford them, or not doesn't matter. She wants a lot of stuff, and a most importantly a ring, which would make a person assume that she's done just being a lover and wants the permanence of marriage. Perhaps she's wanting to be a pampered trophy wife, but, honestly, she would have been the ultimate trophy wife in that she was smart, witty, and gorgeous!

THIS IS THE ONLY ACCEPTABLE VERSION OF THIS SONG.....case closed

[@Celluloidwatcher]

From 1953. A classic if there ever was one. Sadly, the world lost the wonderfully gifted Miss Eartha Kitt on Christmas Day, 2008 at age 81. Ironically, it was on the very day that her hit, Santa Baby, parodied. All the more reason this recording is so memorable.

[@lauriegray8437]

I love how she sings Santa Baby! She makes this song wonderful. It really gets you in the Christmas mood. Thank you Eartha Kitt!

[@spartamuzic]

Wow, super sing at ease. Smooth music tooo

[@ryanmckay2535]

Beautiful woman, perfect voice. She will own this song until the end of time.

[@michaelchimenti4989]

I'm astonished at the audio quality of this recording. It's so clear and present, like it was recorded in 2021. Also, her voice and singing are incredible!

[@thomasthanes6737]

If you're not listening to this with earbuds or earphones you're missing a lot you have to do that

With her unique vocal styling, she made this Christmas song her very own. Every time I hear other artists sing this song, I tell myself but eartha’s version is the best.❤❤❤ 3:28 3:28 3:28 3:28

Oh wow 😁

[@margaretparker792]

my favourite version of this song. stunning song, voice and amazing artist

[@OptimisticMansion-yl1wq]

Her life story should be made into a movie 🎥. From a share cropper to international superstar.

[@bryanjeske6856]

Wow !!! What an excellent voice !!! Hearing Eartha sing this song is like Heaven to my ears - God bless Eartha Kitt and her amazing talent - love her version the BEST !!!

[@erdemmemisyazici3950]

You take any love song, cross out baby, or honey and write in Jesus and you get Christian rock. The same applies to Santa.

[@fnaflover7403]

Her voice perfect! Out of all these versions, I ❤ this one the most!

[@terencemusicsteelpan3311]

That's nice ☺️

[@rosejeffreys9692]

She's the best at singing this song, nobody could hold a candle to her in my opinion

[@BrunocortezRaizo]

Now you really need listen Brandy's version, she did justice❤

I play this song almost every Christmas Eve with my family. Legends never die

[@GlitterGlitter]

she's been an angel all year!

[@rafwaffe8985]

the total of everything she wanted is approx. $1,167,854,838.80

[@ralletsartois]

Not when she sung this... probably only 100K ;)

[@ralletsartois]

I'm reading an article from 2018 and that is around the price quoted for 2018 if items were bought in 2018. 1 Billion USD$ 60 years ago went a lot further. People were famous for being Millionaires. Jean Paul Getty from that time was the "only" recognised billionaire in the us. You may be right, I just find it unlikely. When I was young I wanted to be a Millionaire. I might just make it before I die. But then.. 1 million might be the price of a small car or loaf of bread....

[@Lubbock_Kid1959]

I don’t care for the Christmas songs that are just about wanting to get gifts, but her voice is so soothingly beautiful on this, that I’ll make an exception.

[@dennismclaurin1487]

......while making out your Christmas list, I gather

[@ednaparker3395]

Notice she said that she wanted a ring as well. I assuming she also wanted a marriage proposal ❤

[@anamorrissey9674]

Her voice is Christmas-candy sweet! Impeccably so!

[@aleksandrapytel7808]

Santa baby, just slip a sable under the tree, for me I've been an awful good girl Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight. Santa baby, a 54 convertible too, lights blue I'll wait up for you dear Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight. Think of all the fun I've missed Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed Next year I could be just as good If you'd check out my Christmas list. Santa baby, I want a yacht and really that's Not a lot I've been an angel all year Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight. Santa honey, one little thing I really need, the deed To a platinum mine Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight. Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with the duplex, and checks Sign your 'X' on the line Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight. Come and trim my Christmas tree With some decorations bought at Tiffany's I really do believe in you Let's see if you believe in me Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring I don't mean on the phone Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight. Hurry down the chimney tonight Hurry tonight.

This song is always getting me in the Christmas spirit.

[@uptownqtee40]

Ms. Eartha Kitt is the original queen of finesse!

[@sandramoore]

She sounds so sincere. Sounds like she really does care for her Santa. No one else has sounded so innocent. Nothing sleezy at all. Best by far.

[@馬塞拉TM]

This is a random question.... When you listen to these types of songs don’t you get flashes and pictures of places and people having Christmas at home and having a fire in front of you..? Or being at a bar in New York? I know I’m weird, And my imagination is weird, But I’m being honest, I can’t be the only one that’s getting memories that never happened.

[@luckyb3859]

I'll ask the doorman to pour you in a DeSoto Yellow cab and send it uptown. I'd ride in Ertha's light blue 1954 convertible, too.

[@meredithmitchem5587]

I don't find that weird at all. Happens to me too.

[@lgrady7375]

You're not

[@buckybarnes1218]

Same. Specifically Brooklyn.

[@sheyennehabern3442]

Happens to me all the time😂😂 I do it with a lot songs

[@nompumelelosihlangu3436]

How wonderful it would be if Miss Taraji P. Henson would grace our screens portraying the life of this amazing soul. Definitely a story worth telling 👌

[@marijackson3707]

Omg yes

[@TayTatum]

Or Rihanna

[@noiacsinz6279]

I T that’s a singer

[@williegoodtimes5736]

YES

[@HoneyBunches100]

I get the Rihanna vibes too. If Rihanna takes some acting classes to improve her craft I would rather see her portraying a young Eartha Kitt over Taraji anyday.

[@badazzma4eva420]

Eartha was soooo ahead of her time!Around Christmas time every year when I hear this song it always makes me giggle 😉 Can’t believe it’s almost 70 yrs old, what a classic!!

[@slababarken]

I just love her and have so much respect for what she endured in life and the book her daughter wrote about her mother is amazing

[@lifeisrosyyy]

Her voice is so soft, calm, and soothing.

[@lindawegner8787]

Many artists have recorded this song. Earth Kitt still dominates it.

[@letseatfoodie5153]

Always this version. Please don't try to re release . This is a forever classic ⏳™️♥️
