AFTER 25 YEARS, MARIAH CAREY’s “ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU” HITS #1 ON BILLBOARD

25 years after the release of her modern classic, “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” Mariah Carey has taken the song to number one on the Billboard chart. It’s the first time a Christmas song has been in the top position since The Chipmunks notched a number one with “The Chipmunk Song” in 1959.

This year Mariah has gone all out to celebrate the 25th anniversary of her 1994 hit, releasing a deluxe edition of her Merry Christmas album and playing special holiday shows across the country. It’s been enough to push the song into the lead, marking the longest gap between release date and hitting number one in history.
