Mariah Carey's holiday classic 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' has made history by staying at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart for three consecutive weeks, marking a total of 17 weeks at number one throughout its career.

This year, the song also became the first holiday track to achieve 2 billion streams on Spotify, a milestone that Carey celebrated as 'beyond incredible.'

In 2024, Carey, often referred to as the 'Queen of Christmas,' has set two new Billboard records, further solidifying her legacy in the music industry.

Expressing her gratitude on Instagram, Carey shared her excitement about these achievements, stating, 'This is amazing!!!! Will never ever ever ever ever take this for granted,' while wishing her followers a 'Merry early Christmas!!!!'.

Recently, Carey performed 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' to kick off Netflix's inaugural NFL Christmas Gameday, showcasing her festive spirit.

Her performance was part of a special event that also featured a halftime show by Beyoncé, who performed songs from her new project 'Cowboy Carter'.

Carey's Christmas Time tour, which celebrated the 30th anniversary of her debut Christmas album 'Merry Christmas,' concluded recently after visiting 20 cities across North America.

Originally released in 1994, 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' first entered the top 10 of the Hot 100 in December 2017, later reaching the top five in 2018.

If the song remains at number one for two more weeks, it will tie for the all-time longest-running number one in Billboard history, currently held by 'Old Town Road' and 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)'.

Given its enduring popularity during the holiday season, 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' is expected to continue receiving significant radio play and streaming.

Over the years, Carey has expanded the song's legacy through various collaborations and adaptations, including duets with Justin Bieber and Michael Bublé, as well as a children's book and animated film.

Carey wrote the song with the intention of capturing the Christmas spirit, aiming for a timeless feel rather than a typical holiday sound.
