Baby, It's Cold Outside (song) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Baby, It's Cold Outside
"Baby, It's Cold Outside" is a song written by Frank Loesser in 1944.〔 It is a call and response duet in which one of the singers (usually performed by a male voice) attempts to convince a guest (usually performed by a female voice) that they should stay together for a romantic evening because the weather is cold and the trip home would be difficult. Originally recorded for the film ''Neptune's Daughter'', it has been recorded by a number of artists since its original release. In the early part of its history, the song was seen as presenting a liberal stand for women because the guest decides to stay despite what the neighbors might say about her reputation; however recent critiques of the song have highlighted other parts of the lyrics such as "what's in this drink?" and his unrelenting pressure to stay despite her repeated statement of her desire to go home. ==Background== Loesser wrote the duet in 1944 and premiered the song with his wife, Lynn Garland, at their Navarro Hotel housewarming party, and performed it toward the end of the evening, signifying to guests that it was nearly time to end the party. Frank would introduce himself as the "Evil of Two Loessers", a play on the theme of the song, trying to keep the girl from leaving. Garland considered it "their song" and was furious when Loesser sold the song to MGM.
