"Baby It's Cold Outside," 1957: Fred MacMurray, Dinah Shore, and Ann Miller

The Fred MacMurray-Dinah Shore version has been removed from YouTube for whatever reason.  In lieu of that, I give you  Margaret Whiting and Johnny Mercer - a very nice version.

A holiday season,  50 years ago. :)

The poster at YouTube, writes:
Fred MacMurray finds himself in a bind as Dinah Shore and Ann Miller put their obvious charms to use in a slightly risque three-way take on Frank Loesser's "Baby, It's Cold Outside" from the December 29, 1957 episode of the Dinah Shore Chevy Show. Here, Fred takes the role of the "Lamb" whereas Dinah and Ann share "Wolf" duties. This song was originally a huge hit, in duet form, for Dinah Shore and Buddy Clark, and their 1949 Columbia recording is still heard today, especially this time of year.

There's about ten seconds of digital noise at the beginning, but that clears up.
