Santa Baby??

I was wondering who sang Santa Baby, is it a Betty Boop song?

The one you are thinking of was done by Eartha Kitt(note that it has been covered a few times)

The most popular of the "Santa Baby" remake songs is the one by "Madonna". Its more then likely the one you hear the most often.

OMG, that is one of the songs that gets stuck playing over and over in my mind. Why is it always songs I don't particularly like, ones that when repeated are especially annoying!!??? Grrrr.

Not sure who does the song, though I've heard it a few times more recently in a new Victoria's Secret commercial starring Heidi Klum. I find the song a bit irritating myself, it being sung in something of a stereotypical "ditzy blonde" fashion.

LoL it's one of those songs thats always playing down the local mall from mine at this time of year, I think its intended to make you feel full of the holidays lol I agree with Val & Thomas it does tend to irritate.

Was it not Marilyn Monroe that sang it first

?? I always get lost I know its had lots of covers over the years !

Yes, the version I hear in the commercial does sound like Marilyn Monroe. That's what always comes to mind, though I wasn't sure if she had ever recorded it.

To clear things up, my article that I linked to said this by the way, it wasn't Marilyn Monroe who recorded it was Eartha Kitt, it's a long running urban myth that monroe recorded it and it might sound like it, but it isn't. Monroe never recorded a song. Also, Eartha Kitt's is the most famous tune, madonna's is not, if you are hearing this song, it's more than likely Kitt's.

Well now that's cleared up ... how do I get rid of the song!!?? The best I can manage to do is change the channel to any of the OTHER irritating songs..

like the one from DisneyWorld about ....

"It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
Its a small small small small world"

ARRGGGHHH!!!!
