I'm always so disappointed when this comes on the radio and it's the Madonna version or worse, the modern version sung by a random girl who sounds like everyone else.
She died on Christmas Day, 2008. After not knowing her actually birthday for most of her life, a few years before she died a group of University students saught it out, January 17, 1927. A true original!
Mom's birthday is January17, 1924. She'll be happy to hear this. Years ago I purchased a small jukebox with this tune at a local hallmark stationery store and my young nieces loved playing it every Christmas.
Co-signing this! The best Catwoman period! I grew up with the Tim Burton Batman movies, so Michelle Pfeiffer was my first Catwoman, and who I dressed up as for Halloween when I was 8, but Eartha Kitt will always be Catwoman! 🐈⬛ 💕 🐈⬛
@@frankrodriguez6998 what are you talking about lol you did this for what😭 I don’t need to do anything I’ve been a fan of her movies shows and music for years she is inspirational for black people in general I listen to jazz since i was a toddler I said what I said I’m not going to change a thing love but try again if you want 😂💀
True story: Eartha made a personal appearance at the Gay Men's Health Center NYC, shortly after Madonna had released her version of the song. When asked what she thought of it, she purred, "She did the best that she could." The room errupted in laughter and thunderous applause...I was there
There's no contest. Eartha's version is sly, sultry, seductive, subtle ... psychological! Madonna's version is just - "Santa baby, I'm a great big whore for you!"
Orson Welles once called her the world's most exciting women in the world who knows they could have been bed partners between the sheets with a comment like that!
I am certain that I am not the only one who finds joy in listening to Christmas music throughout the year. It serves as both my lullaby and my source of cheer. May God bless us all.
It’s so crazy she was so well known for a Christmas song and she died on Christmas Day in 2008. Ngl I was obsessed with her music and roles in fifth grade and I still love her music to this day. RIP Eartha Kitt.
Was very lucky to have seen her perform in "Follies" at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London (4 times) and then again in cabaret/concert at the Sydney Hilton Hotel ... what an amazing performer!
Eartha Kitt's Santa Baby song is actually my favorite Christmas song. I hate it! when the radio station plays, Santa baby, sung by another artist! No one can beat this original!
"First, I'll have the most soothing, Christmas-y voice ever , then, I'll record what will, no doubt, be the best Christmas classic of all time, and so, I'll be immortalized as one of the best performers to ever walk the EARTH. Hahahaha! Oh, it's brilliant. Brilliant! BRILLIANT!"
Ba-boom Santa baby, just slip a Sable under the tree for me Been an awful good girl Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light 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 check off my Christmas list Santa baby, I want a yacht, and really, that's not a lot 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 a 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
WOW ALL THESE MANY YEARS GOD JESUS BLESS ME TOO LIVE ON THIS EARTH I HEAR THAT SONG COME ON RADIO NEVER NEW THAT WAS EARTHA KITT NOT ONLY WAS SHE A GOOD ACTRESS PLAYING CAT WOMAN IN BATMAN SHE HAD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VOICE IN THE WORLD KNOW ONE CAN NEVER SING THIS SONG LIKE SHE DO SO EXCELLENT & BEAUTIFUL
i wish i had been fortunate enough to have seen eartha kitt perform this, but who knew there would one day be music videos back in 1953 or 54 when she did this song. absent the possibility of seeing a scratchy looking b/w video of her recording this song, this animated version is an acceptable substitute. the animated character does capture the essence of ms kitt. and, like others have commented, if eartha ain't singing it, i don't need to hear it. my thanks to whoever took the time to put this together, it is definitely well done.
How is this Yzma!?!?!!? Holy cow I've always known this song I love her voice and she was iconic for thid and for being yzma I'm sad i didn't realize this sooner! She was soo amazing and i hope she is in paradise! 💜💞😭😥
Merry Christmas in Advance to anyone reading this. May you have a happy, healthy and prosperous new year. we lived through this year. at the very least we'll have great stories 10 years from now.
Eartha, may you rest in peace since December 2008. This song was and it still is great by you. Especially at Christmas time. Which it is now where I am. Merry Christmas!
B, Let’s Find-Out How Santa Has Access To All These Wonderful Things To Give Away To GOOD PEOPLE, & Then Show Everyone How To Get It For Themselves That Is SO MUCH MORE FUN 🎅 🤩 💃🏽 🎄
I’m 60 every time I hear this I think of my aunt.She acted out & lip syncing this song every Christmas night for our family . Feather boa& all god rest her soul & all my other aunts & uncles. They are enjoying themselves up in heaven having a great time.
I love that I wait all year long to play this classic, and start off my wonderful December listening to 🎅 Baby, and love them colors here 🤩💞 Thank you Miss Kitt ♥️
Damn, Eartha knew her her worth and her voice was gold! I think this cartoon depiction is SPOT on to how she probably visualized this song in her "mind-movie" .... it's ALL so well done ! so perfect.
Oh yeah! I have heard other singers sing this song, but nobody gives it the zing like Eartha Kitt! She died 12 years ago this day. Thank you for this song Miss Kitt. Nobody does it like you!!!

Nobody can sing this song as good as Eartha Kitt. Legendary.

I love her singing too
Well said
absolutely agree
Please try listening to Eartha's song @ the '2' speed--It's the BEST!
NOBODY can sing this like Eartha Kitt! It's a masterpiece!

It’s been a year

Really, that's crazy.

That's today! Happy birthday Eartha!
Eartha’s looks and sultry vocals can literally melt ice.
The original gold digger mistress 😂
_Her singing voice, Amy Winehouse’s and Mutya Buena’s deep sultry voice though...._
ruclips.net/video/99g_suRdSB0/видео.html
Hey guys did a remake see if you like it
that voice could melt diamonds
She was an original. Ms. KITT was before her time in many respects.
If Eartha Kitt ain't singing this I don't wanna hear it
Period

michael buble?
Her voice is silk ❤❤❤ ♥️
This is very beautifully put together. There will never be a version of this song better than Eartha Kitt’s
Shes the og
I agree
Nope the nightcore version is better lol and this is so old 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@pusheen7742 old is gold. And what are you doing listening to a Christmas song in July?🤨
@@pusheen7742 Nightcore is just pitch heightened and sped up edits of the original songs.
A real classic I love it I miss Eartha Kitt seeing her animated again in different stages is dope my favorite cat woman of all time

So true. She's fly. We should make song together. I have connection s amiga
@@cannibalisticrequiem So true this is her. Wow. Incredible. I never knew this. I think your a remarkable woman as well.
Mine too. 😻

There’s a video somewhere on RUclips where Eartha says: “I used to have a lot of fun with this song…then Madonna sang it.”
Well dang😂
she was iconic
There's no contest. Eartha's version is sly, sultry, seductive, subtle ... psychological! Madonna's version is just - "Santa baby, I'm a great big whore for you!"
So many references to this amazing woman's career
Especially Catwoman.
And yzma from new Groove

If you’re reading this, remember to take a deep breath and stay strong. You’ve faced challenges before, and you’re capable of overcoming this one too.
Thanks. How did you know the holidays are challenging?
Thank You.. Merry Christmas 🎄 🎁
Thank you❤
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️☃️🙏🏻
Thank you 🌟
Love this. Her singing is effortless and smooth.
Don’t let it distract you, if you haven’t paid attention, She asked a lot of expensive things, trust me she’s a gold digger.
@@evanholloway1692 its Santa. Of course she asks for expensive stuff.
Is she an alto?

Merry Christmas!
I came here after seeing the Kim Kardashian version
Nobody will even sing Santa Baby as good as she did, and people will be listening to Earth Kitt's Santa Baby and hundred years from now
LAUFEY??
laufey did it better
@@hasdyi frfr
@@hasdyiI liked laufeys but I prefer this. laufey did do this justice tho
It’s been 12 years since she passed away and for years I’ve adored her attitude her craft and how professional she is at her job.
Right ❤❤❤
😢❤
14 years
She owns the song: every key change and the melody
HER VOICE STILL SERVES EVERY YEAR
Glory to God for blessing His children with gifts to entertain the world, don't forget your creator guys!
My dad, mom loved her! All 6 of us kids did too! I hope there listening to her in Heaven! What a gift from GOD she was to us all!
I am certain that I am not the only one who finds joy in listening to Christmas music throughout the year. It serves as both my lullaby and my source of cheer. May God bless us all.
One of the best Christmas Songs of all time hands down! God Bless the beautiful and talented Eartha Kitt.
"One little thing I really need. The deed. To a platinum mine."
This is a wonderful animated version of Miss Kitt and one of her most famous songs. Kudos to all of the artists involved.
She really said delulu is the solulu 😂😂
English.
😂😂😂
😂😂
@@Valerie-u9r English slang is English.
I wish I could tell her how much I love her and that she’s my favorite person ever
I got that chance Monjaras!
I wish I could teach her a lesson to ask Santa for one single and simple Christmas gift every year!!!!
George and Eartha - both produce hit Christmas songs and both died on christmas day. Madness
2024. Santa Baby, all i want for Christmas is peace....
It’s so crazy she was so well known for a Christmas song and she died on Christmas Day in 2008. Ngl I was obsessed with her music and roles in fifth grade and I still love her music to this day. RIP Eartha Kitt.
2023 December 3rd still a CLASSIC 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Was very lucky to have seen her perform in "Follies" at the Shaftesbury Theatre in London (4 times) and then again in cabaret/concert at the Sydney Hilton Hotel ... what an amazing performer!
It's one of those songs where the perfect voice made it timeless. Always imitated never duplicated 💅🏾💜
Eartha Kitt's Santa Baby song is actually my favorite Christmas song. I hate it! when the radio station plays, Santa baby, sung by another artist! No one can beat this original!
The remakes are terrible. If it’s NOT Eartha Kitt’s version, it’s NOT Christmas.
Right ❤
She passed away exactly 12 years ago on Christmas Day 😥 Rest in peace Eartha Kitt!!!
Right ❤❤
No it’s 15 years ago
@@emmamartin5562 14 going on 15
Eartha Kitt , is the only one I like to hear . Sing Santa Baby . Fantastic singer she was .
Loved it, a very special and strong minded woman that didn't bend with the wind, I truly admire her for whom she was as a person.
One of my favorite Christmas songs ever!
Can't believe that animated version uploaded just now since I've been jamming to Eartha's Santa Baby :) Such a joy, pleasure.
We miss her🥲She would love this video stay strong like Eartha Kitt
Old is gold!! Love, love the classics… bonds the heart with the past.
If it’s not Eartha singing /her/ signature song, count me out.
Such a sultry version, sung by the unique and inimitable Eartha Kitt! Love it.
This song will forever have the magic of Eartha Kitt and it will never be duplicated! Just so magical and otherworldly!
The very best version of this song, by far... And this animation is everything too!
"First, I'll have the most soothing, Christmas-y voice ever , then, I'll record what will, no doubt, be the best Christmas classic of all time, and so, I'll be immortalized as one of the best performers to ever walk the EARTH. Hahahaha! Oh, it's brilliant. Brilliant! BRILLIANT!"
THE DOPEST THING EVER. Wow, thank you to her team for bringing this jewel to her fans to enjoy! Love it!
Ba-boom
Santa baby, just slip a Sable under the tree for me
Been an awful good girl
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light 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 check off my Christmas list
Santa baby, I want a yacht, and really, that's not a lot
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 a 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

One of the best music videos I’ve seen 😍 nobody can come close to how amazing she did with this song
One of my favorite holiday songs and the best version of all! The others are mere imitations. No one can replace the great Miss Eartha Kitt.
How is this Yzma!?!?!!?
Holy cow I've always known this song
I love her voice and she was iconic for thid and for being yzma
I'm sad i didn't realize this sooner! She was soo amazing and i hope she is in paradise! 💜💞😭😥

cute animated skit of Ms. Eartha Kitt. always my #1 diva. Remember her on Christmas Day (she ironically died on Christmas Day 2008)
I shed tears when Brian hit that note- I’m so happy for him ❤️ such a beautiful performance
Beautifully done! This is THE best version of this song ever. Earths was truly an original❤️
Eartha Kit would have loved this. Also, I love how Catwoman from the Adam West Batman show was included in this.❤
I truly love this animated video to Eartha’s classic vocal. Bravo! Well done.
This Christmas hits differently compared to the others ...❤❤
