‘Santa Baby’ is a cherished Christmas favourite each year round: it’s glamorous, it’s playful – and flirts with an unlikely subject: Santa Claus. At the top of this year’s list, we’re asking for SHAB’s shiny new take on the classic: updated with a modern shimmer and a mainstream pop wink. One note in, and it’s already warming up our winter as we head into December festivities.
Wrapped up like a gift with her velvety vocals, SHAB adds an even cheekier performance to the song’s existing playful edge. Whisper-like and sultry, she reaffirms her ability to add a unique sparkle to any track. A dance-worthy beat makes the song not only a warm, cosy soundtrack to hanging up your decorations and penning Christmas cards – but also an anthem for glitter-dress parties – complete with sequins and a stylish feel.
SHAB is admired for pairing sublime visuals with each release – and for the ‘Santa Baby’ music video, she makes no exception. A blend of fabulous outfits that belong in any winter partywear collection, colourful red backdrops and a stack of shiny presents, you can step inside the track’s star-studded magic as subtle sleigh bells ring.
So, if you’re trying too hard to resist Christmas’s early arrival, ‘Santa Baby’ is an invitation to embrace celebrations early: following in the footsteps of Eartha Kitt, Kylie Minogue, Taylor Swift and more. Blended with her trademark feminine flair, glamour, and modern, groovy twist: this is certainly one to spin for the remainder of 2025.
Since releasing her inspiring album, ‘One Suitcase,’ hitting the US charts and touring the States with popular UK boyband The Wanted, ‘Santa Baby’ is one final theatrical bow as 2025 draws to a close – and if this offering is any indication, 2026 is set to be just as bright and beautiful for the rising star.
