13 Different Renditions Of "Baby, It's Cold Outside"

I told ya there'd be more of these. I just didn't tell you they'd be back to back. While this song isn't technically a Christmas song, it is heard more at this time of year than any other. What I like most about it is the back-and-forth dynamics between the "wolf" vs. "mouse" male-and-female vocals (and how the whole tone of the song can change when the roles are reversed). Enjoy!  ~  JH
