Sultry Christmas Love Songs

I want to make a CD with the best Bluesy, Jazzy, Ballady and R&B Christmas Songs on it. I guess I’m looking for Christmas Love songs but it doesn’t have to be exclusively love songs. Just songs that would be great to slow dance to with your honey on Christmas Eve (have I given away my December 24th plans?)

Here’s what I have so far but I need more. Give me your best suggestions. Not just songs but whoever does the best rendition of it in your opinion. Hopefully they’ll be available on Itunes.

Baby it’s Cold Outside (either Ella Fitzgerald’s version or the Harry Connick Jr. one)
This Christmas (the Harry Connick Jr. version is my top pick)
Santa Baby (Eartha Kitt – is there really anyone that matches up?)
I Can’t Wait for Christmas – Mindy Abair

Also does anyone know where I can download “I’ve got some presents for Santa” by Sarah Taylor & Bill Mumy?


Update: I'm adding these to my list
-- Frosty’s Rag (Frosty the Snowman) Anita Baker
-- Merry Christmas Baby – Christina Aguilera or Chuck Berry or Etta James
-- Merry, Merry Christmas Baby - (I think this is different from the one above, but not sure)
-- Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer – Temptations or Ray Charles
-- The Man With The Bag – Kay Star
-- The Christmas Song – Nat King Cole
-- I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus – (Not sure who does the best version)

White Christmas.

And if you want to dance manically you can fire up my least favourite christmas song: Feliz Navidad. No, that might not be my least favourite... the "So this is christmas, and what have you done?" song makes me a little postal as well, lol. White Christmas however I like and before you ask there is only one real version ;-) .
