Nora and Vilma, Vilma and Nora. The two most-awarded and most enduring stars of Philippine movies. Once upon a time, in their teeny-bopper years, they also cut music albums aside from starring in movies and television. Singing, of course, came naturally to Nora, who had kick-started her superstardom by winning in Tawag ng Tanghalan. It was infinitely harder for Vilma, who couldn't sing if her life depended on it. But warble she must, if she had to go toe-to-toe with her fiercest rival. So she also released her own albums.
Both of them would record their own take on the Jackson 5 Christmas hit, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus. Listen to them below and take your pick. Who's got the better version, Ate Guy or Ate Vi? 'Wag lang tumawa, vote nuh! (Finger pointing upwards.)
Here's Nora:
Here's Vilma:

Nora!
without a doubt, Nora.
Nora and Vilma pa rin? come on guys, move on... charice and sarah na -Marsha!
Gibbs, this is so funny. Vilma 'ko! :)
In terms of voice quality and musical arrangement, Nora's version trumps Vilma's.
In terms of looks, charm and dancing ability (while performing this song, say, on a stage), it's Vilma hands down.
In terms of cringe-worthy diction, it's a tie!
So my final verdict for this song: VILMA! Dahil biased ako, at dahil forever Vilmanian kami ng nanay ko!
This made my morning. Both had long and short i's and e's. Nakakatawa.
Voting for Nora, but with a slim lead over Ate Vi's kikay version. I can imagine her kicking her heels and smiling the whole time it was being recorded.
Both sound so dated. Nora for the voice and singing ability. My 6-year old niece can sing better than Vilma.
Nora, of course. May contest ba? - Ferdie
I asked my 79 year old mom to listen to the two versions. Hands down Nora wins
Nora's version was Santa Klaws
Vilma's version was Santa Close
Kawindang!
"If duh-ddy had only sin"
"then I saw mommy teeekel..."
