YouTube Presents: Baby, It's Cold Outside

Hello my little sugar plumb fairies, tis I, your favorite Production Manager Brandon, bringing you good tidings of great joy direct from the front lines. I was really hoping to find a video clip of Dino crooning away for your viewing pleasure, but alas, the intarweb yielded no fruit(cake). I did, however, come across a cornucopia of other talented(less) individuals hamming it up to this anthem of date-rape set in a winter wonderland.

The first stop on our way to Grandma's house is a playful little exchange between Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews. I'm not sure who Ms. Matthews is, but I have a feeling that Tom knows a thing or two about the sinful scenario described in the lyrics to this dirty little ditty...



Our next stop takes us to Fantasy Island where a young Ricardo Montabon attempts to pry loose the frigid chastity of a shrewish Esther Williams. (As an added bonus this one actually sets the stage with a well acted exchange before breaking into song).



Up next we've got the original sight-challenged soul-man himself, Ray Charles singing alongside our favorite friend to the psychics, Dionne Warwick. Who needs to see when you've got moves like that?



And last but not least, before we arrive at dear old Grannies we have a recent performance from funnyman Paul F. Tompkins and 80's pop-princess, turned contemporary rock queen, turned trollop, Aimee Mann, bringing a little "ha-ha" to our favorite holiday hit.
