Mariah Carey may be growing old with each passing day, but her songs most certainly aren’t. Especially her most famous holiday smash hit of all time from almost three decades ago, All I Want For Christmas Is You. Even at the age of 54 and with multiple other hits topping the charts, this one Christmas song of hers has triumphantly managed to surpass all her other songs.
Not only has All I Want For Christmas Is You from 1994 set an exceptionally high record for having spent fourteen whole weeks straight at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 list, but it has also broken other records, including those of Spotify, as well!
Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You Is Wreaking Havoc!
Released back in 1994 by Mariah Carey, All I Want For Christmas Is You has held a special place in fans’ hearts ever since. And it continues to play that magic and top the charts even after almost three decades of its release.
According to Billboard‘s recently released top 10 songs for the Billboard Hot 100 list, the holiday song is, yet again, positioned at number one, making it a whopping streak record of holding the top position for 14 weeks straight.
What’s more, is that that is not the only record it is currently holding: All I Want For Christmas Is You has also reportedly been standing at the top of the Billboard Global 200 chart as well for a consecutive 16 weeks straight!
Then there is the Billboard Global Excl. US chart, which also recorded Carey’s Christmas song having held the number one position yet again for a stunning 11 weeks out of all the 32 weeks that it has been on the charts.
But even that’s not all: as reported by @BuzzingPop on X, All I Want For Christmas Is You also reportedly ranks among the top 100 most streamed songs on Spotify of all time, ranking at the 97th position with a sparkling 1,777,520,006 streams in all.
