Based on this other tweet he made, there is speculation Haley and Casey might be working on the single "Baby It's Cold Outside" for the Christmas season:

I think Casey would give the tune more of a jazz feel than Willie, who seems like he's just reading the words:
Ray Charles and Dionne Warwick, 1987:

YouTube comment: "This song DESERVES to be sung like this. Not tripping over itself trying be cute going too fast. Slow... sexy... seductive... Let the male in the song seduce you AND the woman... Great singers have butchered this sing in comparison. Just AWESOME"
Ann Margret & Al Hirt. I don't see them recording it this way in the modern day, but I agree with the comment: "In most (or all) of the other versions the women keep singing more fiercely and you can hardly hear the man, because somehow they think that's what makes them sexy... its like they aren't even talking to each other, just fighting for predominance."
