Which Black singers since "Baby it's cold outside"

[StageLeft]

Kids asked for this song, I remember hearing it over Christmas. There are a million versions of the song. THEY ARE ALL SH*T.

Except for the one with what sounded like an old black couple, I'm sure one of you knows it, who are the singers? thanks!

BTW I meant "sing" not "since", but whoever the hell programmed this forum software didn't see fit to allow editing of topic titles.

Black? Racist.

Ray Charles and Betty Carter (Miss Piggy to you and me)

Just don't watch the idiots in the video.

 

[Farang]

Reminds me of The Temptations - My Girl. Also by Otis Redding.

 

[Linflas]

I think the version you are thinking of was done by Dean Martin. The one done by him and Doris Day is the one I always hear played everywhere over Christmas.

Ray Charles it is, thanks. There is a dione warwick version, too instead of betty and unfortunately the betty version appears off of youtube right now.

Ella Fitzgerald and someone sang it very well.

I think you might be thinking of Sammy Davis Jr. and Carmen McRae...the wife wanted me to find this for her for Christmas.....

That version isn't bad wheezer but I think it is ray charles. It was definitely an _old_ black guy.

Brian Setzer Orchestra does a version I like.

Ray isn't old, he's dead.

Louis Armstrong and Velma Middleton

 

[DrPizza]

It's an excellent song that has been done by a ton of talented duos. I prefer a lot of the older versions to the more modern versions. Just listened to Bob Hope & Doris Day.

 

[Pacfanweb]

Buster Poindexter and Sigourney Weaver did a cool version of that song on SNL years ago.

 

[shortylickens]

Sammy Davis Jr does it best.

 

[DaveSimmons]

I was going to recommend Robert Palmer's version from Riding High, then I listened to it again. Nope.

For Robert Palmer classic goodness, stick with the Sailing Shoes / Hey Julia / Sneakin' Sally sequence from Sneaking Sally, or the Power Station CD.
