眾多佳節音樂中
我最喜歡的應景曲是一首老歌-
"Santa Baby"不同於其他歌曲的福音讚揚或和樂融融
這首歌特別之處
是在歌詞相當俏皮風騷
Santa Baby - written by Joan Javits, Philip Springer, Tony Springer
Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me.
Been an awful good girl.
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue.
I'll wait up for you dear,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Think of all the fun I've missed,
Think of all the fellas that I haven't kissed,
Next year I could be just as good,
If you'll check off my Christmas list,
Santa baby, I wanna yacht,
and really that's not a lot.
Been an angel all year,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa honey, there's one thing I really do need, the deed,
to a platinum mine,
Santa honey, so hurry down the chimney tonight.
Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with a duplex, and checks.
Sign your 'X' on the line,
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight.
Come and trim my Christmas tree,
with some decorations bought at Tiffany's,
I really do believe in you,
let's see if you believe in me,
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring.
I don't mean on the phone,
Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hurry down the chimney tonight.
Hurry, tonight.
當一個美麗的女人 慵懶撒嬌著
想要 貂皮 遊艇 粉藍色敞篷車 和白金礦的地契
如此奢侈的願望
的確只能借由聖誕老人來實現了
原唱 - Eartha Kitt - Original Version(1953)
而我最喜歡則是1997年由Cynthia Basinet所翻唱的版本
她的聲音比之後翻唱的眾女星們(madonna, kylie minogue, pussycat dolls等等族繁不及備載)來得不做作矯情
