Mariah Carey’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ Extends Record for Most Weeks at No. 1 on Singles Chart

Mariah Carey has extended her record-setting streak for most weeks spent at No. 1 on the singles chart as “All I Want for Christmas Is You” spends its 22nd week atop the Billboard Hot 100.

The perennial holiday classic broke the record for most weeks at No. 1 a few weeks ago, beating the previous record shared by Lil Nas X’s “Old Town Road” featuring Billy Ray Cyrus and Shaboozey’s “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” with 19 weeks at the chart summit. “All I Want for Christmas Is You” also extends a record on the Streaming Songs chart with 26 weeks at No. 1, and bumps from No. 5 to 3 on the Digital Song Sales chart.

Holiday songs rule elsewhere as they account for the 24 top positions on the Hot 100. Behind “All I Want for Christmas Is You” sits Brenda Lee’s “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree,” Bobby Helms’ “Jingle Bell Rock,” Wham!’s “Last Christmas” and Ariana Grande’s “Santa Tell Me.” “Last Christmas” also crowns the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts, each for a second week.

Over on the album charts, Taylor Swift continues to reign at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in its 11th nonconsecutive week. But the Christmas cheer is spread elsewhere in the top 10 with seven holiday albums occupying the upper reaches of the tally. Bing Crosby’s “Ultimate Christmas” peaks at No. 2, followed by Michael Bublé’s “Christmas,” Nat King Cole’s “The Christmas Song” and “A Christmas Gift for You From Phil Spector.” Rounding out spots six through 10 are Morgan Wallen’s “I’m the Problem,” Vince Guaraldi Trio’s “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” Carey’s “Merry Christmas,” Frank Sinatra’s “Ultimate Christmas” and the “KPop Demon Hunters” soundtrack.
