“Baby, It’s Cold Outside” is a duet between John Legend and Kelly Clarkson, which appears on the deluxe edition of Legend’s album. The song marks the first Christmas collaboration between both Clarkson and Legend. Clarkson previously recorded a cover of the song in 2013 with Ronnie Dunn.

The song differs from Frank Loesser’s original version, in which the male pressures the female to stay the night. In the new and modernized lyrics, written with the help of Natasha Rothwell, the male is understanding and respectful of the female’s decision and calls her a cab, though she ultimately decides to not leave.
