The song has been recorded by numerous other artists over the years, including Jo Stafford (1956); Sammy Davis, Jr. and Carmen McRae (1957); Dean Martin (1959); Ray Charles and Betty Carter (1961); Oliver Reed and Joyce Blair (1962); Barry Manilow and K. T. Oslin (1990); Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews ( 1999), Ann-Margret and Brian Setzer (2002), Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey (2004); Rod Stewart and Dolly Parton (2004); James Taylor and Natalie Cole (2004); Wheat (band) and Liz Phair (2004); and Alan Cumming and Liza Minnelli. On "Saturday Night Live" NBC on 10/11/1986, the song was featured as a duet sung by Sigourney Weaver and Buster Poindexter. It was also featured in the 1991 movie For the Boys sung by Bette Midler and James Caan. Due to the wintertime lyrics, the song is often played during the Christmas season; in 2003, it was featured in the holiday-themed film Elf sung by Zooey Deschanel and Leon Redbone. In 2006, the song was reissued on the album Christmas with Dino, this time as a duet by Dean Martin (posthumously) with Martina McBride, whose portion was recorded and mixed at the Los Angeles Capitol studio used by Martin for his 1959 version.

Tom Jones with ex-Catatonia singer Cerys Matthews. It was released in the late 90's i think.

There's been tons of people. The mot well known one is by Tom Jones and Cerys Matthews of Catatonia. I think most recently, it was Jessica Simpson and Nick her husband, whatever his name is. That version was awful, if I may say so.
Look at the source (wiki) for more info... tons of people have done it!

Loads of people have. I think it was probably first performed by the Glenn Miller big band, though who sung it back then I don't know!
