Mid-Week Cold Outside Song

Blog reader and good friend P.E.C. drew our attention to this classic, winter season song performed by Leon Redbone and Zooey Deschanel. "Baby It's Cold Outside," a 1944 composition by Frank Loesser, is a call-and-response duet format, and has been recorded over the years by such artists as Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Jordan, Margaret Whiting and Johnny Mercer, Ray Charles and Betty Carter, and Lady Gaga and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. This version originally appeared in the 2003 soundtrack for the film Elf. Enjoy and stay warm inside.
