I’m gonna need people who aren’t Eartha Kitt to stop singing Santa Baby

If people would stop singing any Christmas songs in the future. Instrumentals only.

incelwashington.bsky.social•55 days ago

If the song is older than 20 years old, then it should be converted to instrumental muzak without the vocalizations.

This was something that everybody wanted in the 1960's.

ncl81.bsky.social•58 days ago

I absolutely agree.

rainiedrop.bsky.social•58 days ago

Can I suggest also, people who aren't Nina Simone should stop singing Feeling Good?

rainiedrop.bsky.social•58 days ago

And by people I do mean Bublé. If Brittany Howard happened to do a version of Feeling Good that's a different story, it'd be amazing, I may pass out.

ladypup.bsky.social•57 days ago

Best Skeet Of The Year! I love Eartha and NO ONE will ever do it like she did!

glennlovespikmin.bsky.social•58 days ago

i think sabrina carpenter could pull it off when she covered it (ignoring shania doing way too much) but yeah it takes a very specific air to do it and most people don't have that

Bublé chickened out when he didn't go with Santa Daddy

evinyard.bsky.social•58 days ago

OMG, it's such a missed opportunity. I want this to exist. Not from Michael Bublé' because I'm not a fan, but maybe Superfruit? Are they still making music?

cislesbiangrandma.bsky.social•48 days ago

Facts.

peeweesky.bsky.social•58 days ago

Barry White would've been good

betalogan.bsky.social•58 days ago

i wish Christopher Lee would have sung it tho

aorlior.bsky.social•58 days ago

be the Santa Baby you want to see in the worId Iike on a harpychord or whatever you pIay

richiebeans.bsky.social•56 days ago

…what…?

thatauntzelda.bsky.social•58 days ago

Can we still allow gay men’s choirs to sing it? (Asking for my father.)

jeffblackman.bsky.social•58 days ago

Rachel Bloom Chanukah Honey exception

kapelski.bsky.social•58 days ago

hey is the main channel video coming out before new years?

omermiri.bsky.social•58 days ago

Hi , please RT my last post , that is important to my family , please don't ignore or skip me 🙌🏻

nessakirby.bsky.social•58 days ago

Eartha Kitt supremacy. Though my favourite song of hers is I Wanna Be Evil.

lookitskatiex.bsky.social•58 days ago

God, I don’t know what it is about every other version but they sound so whiny and odd. Even if they’re good singers. No idea what it is about it.

shihtzulove.bsky.social•51 days ago

Amen.

balladussy.bsky.social•58 days ago

I'm gonna need Madonna to unsing Santa Baby

soabfab.bsky.social•58 days ago

You had me at "stop singing Santa baby"

brokrockreal.bsky.social•56 days ago

Glad you're on bluesky

chaldera.bsky.social•58 days ago

Bublé be like
"Santa Buddy,
You want a lil kiss,
Stroke my hair and
Maybe touch tips?"

josellcordero.bsky.social•57 days ago

Hey, Tamar Braxton's version sounds good too. That's about it though IMO...

lalaandstolga.bsky.social•58 days ago

Gawd ME TOO! That is how that song works!

lizzymatheson.bsky.social•58 days ago

What if we discover that Divine recorded it?

aymari.bsky.social•58 days ago

It makes me cringe everytime

konanmetalscholar.bsky.social•58 days ago

Eartha Kitt was a national treasure, Emperor's New Groove is a classic

anniemgc.bsky.social•57 days ago

At this point, I don't enjoy any version of the song.

mandruski.bsky.social•58 days ago

Can't stop. Won't stop. Don't even know how to stop!

dinguskhan123.bsky.social•58 days ago

We need to go further, unless Adam West has said you're full name you aren't allowed to sing Christmas songs

wildlystrollingben.bsky.social•57 days ago

I used to work at Walmart and they played that song constantly. I came to hate it for that reason.

arsmith942.bsky.social•57 days ago

That's fair.

shoehornwithteeth.bsky.social•58 days ago

Likewise, I need supermarkets to stop playing all covers of that song that aren't Eartha Kitt's.

ezraaleon.bsky.social•58 days ago

I’m curious as to why Michael buble thinks Santa would be obliged to give him anything while friend zoning him. Santa wants to be SEDUCED!

angiefrangie.bsky.social•58 days ago

Michael Bublé gets a pass IMO, but only because I find his aggressively straight version of it hilarious

macciecheems.bsky.social•58 days ago

and unless they're going to adopt an "enemies-to-lovers" vibe with it, this goes double for men

bearinthecity.bsky.social•58 days ago

Ok ok but you haven't heard me sing it yet

daredevilkittens.bsky.social•58 days ago

What you're saying is we need more people who are Eartha Kitt

juan.mywasteofspace.com•58 days ago

well what about

https://youtu.be/kBDULdX8d7Y

lypscratch.bsky.social•30 days ago

Same!!! It’s just so… wrong!

nyaneryn.bsky.social•57 days ago

People who play the long game are changing their last name to kitt, and naming their kids Eartha 😎

pjcool.bsky.social•58 days ago

And people who aren't Wham to stop covering Last Christmas!

philsustainability.bsky.social•58 days ago

Did Gilbert Gottfried sing “Santa Baby”?

leftcoastlivin.bsky.social•57 days ago

YESSSS! I have been saying the exact same thing!

lostinyesterday.bsky.social•58 days ago

"santa pally, i want a yacht and really that's not a lot"

midnight-eyes.bsky.social•58 days ago

I think that Laufey did a really nice cover this year. She's certainly no Eartha, but it's quite lovely.

fleurneuse.bsky.social•58 days ago

I’ll give Laufey a pass cause she’s a cutie but that is it

gabymasami.bsky.social•58 days ago

She used to have fun with that song until Madonna sang it 😞

propertyofyeti.bsky.social•58 days ago

At least update the damn convertible to a post-'54 model

bc30000.bsky.social•57 days ago

One more rumpa-pum-pum and I'm rumpa-pum-pummeling.

seancooney.bsky.social•57 days ago

Completely agree!

jonpennington.bsky.social•58 days ago

You don't think Mae West has earned the right?

oceanpinesguy.bsky.social•58 days ago

I love the song and haven’t heard a cover I didn’t like. It’s about the true meaning of Christmas: materialism and the accumulation of wealth. Nothing about “peace on earth, etc.” It’s “I want all the stuff!!!” They all sound good. Even the Taylor Swift version.

cuppabakedbeans.bsky.social•58 days ago

she's on thin ice

localcelebrity.bsky.social•58 days ago

What, are you not a fan of the aggressively ‘No homo’ Michael Bublé version?

kolberz.bsky.social•58 days ago

every year I have to go on a tirade about why that song irritates me so much. like swallow your pride and be horny for Santa like the rest of us you fucking coward!

localcelebrity.bsky.social•58 days ago

Amen.

der30.bsky.social•58 days ago

lol that’s like what I call it. Aggressively heterosexual and No homo

localcelebrity.bsky.social•58 days ago

To me it’s “no homo” because that’s what normie lib men who swear they’re not homophobic say while also showing deep insecurity about their sexuality.

And that’s exactly the era and vibe of Bublé’s cover.

richcaldicott.bsky.social•57 days ago

How originalist.

erinlsnyder.bsky.social•58 days ago

For the most part, I agree completely. That said, Lachi's reimagining of the song is all kinds of awesome and at least two district kinds of genius.

feralphilosopher.bsky.social•58 days ago

Michael Bublé?

sithiaditu.bsky.social•58 days ago

Around the same time, she sang a song called "I want to be evil." Fabulous https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SS02GeKuWQ4
