"Santa Baby (Gimme, Gimme, Gimme)" was the lead single from MTV: TRL Christmas album. For this song Willa Ford worked with Eve Nelson, who she had worked with before on her debut album Willa Was Here. In the song Willa goes through her long expensive Christmas list. (…A diamond ring… A Benzie… Gucci… Tiffany).
[edit] Video
The video was directed by Tryan George. Throughout the video Willa receives many gifts, such as a star and a man-robot. Ray J, Jive Jones, and Horatio Sanz all make an appearance in the video.
[edit] Critical response
In general, response to this song was extremely negative. In a characteristic review, Stephen Thomas Erlewine calls the song "an utterly revolting paean to crass commercialism and tarted-up teen sexuality topped off with a violence-inducing chorus."
