charts discussion AIWFCIY Annual Chart Run | Earliest re-entry to BB streaming chart ever!

First #1 of the season goes to........ AUSTRIA

 

Size: 83,861 km²

Population: 9,027,000

Capital: Vienna

GDP: $582 billion

 

One of Europe's oldest countries, Austria was first named in 996 and became a global super power. Most people will remember it as the dual-monarchy Austria-Hungary one of the world's most imperialistic super-nations. Vienna - the capital - used to be the centre of European culture, tying and or even surpassing Paris and London in the 18th century. The Habsburgs even ruled The Netherlands, Belgium and Spain at one point. 

 

But no foreign entity has ever been able to lift a modern-day Christmas song to #1 on the Austrian singles charts just as quickly as Miss Mariah Carey. Rising 13-1 in just 3 weeks since its return, marks the song's 10th week at #1 in the country.

 

Look:

Austria: 44 - 13 - 1 -
Sweden: 56 - 2 -
United States: 25 - 5 -
Canada: 16 - 5 -
Norway: 6 -
Germany: 44 - 6 -
Iceland: 27 - 9 - 6 -
Japan (Oversea): 8 -

 

We love to see it. Now, let's eat a Wiener Schnitzel (which originated from there) and feel proud of our Long Island girl being able to rule one of the most recluse and hard to smash countries for any modern pop girl. 

 

MIMI is ruling the Alpes now, who would have guessed.

This week MC is doing 35,400 versus Brendan’s 22,100. MC has multiple streaming hits while Brenda only has the one. Also, nearly all of Brenda’s is from streaming. 

I took a random week in December last year and MC did 43,819 units versus Brenda’s 23,763. Brenda is doing 62% of MC up from 54% last year 

 

Brenda might actually be coming

This song could have charted #1 in four different decades if it wasn't for rules at the time.

It’s clearly become the biggest female song ever - we just don’t have the exact numbers yet.

[suburbannature]

Dec 2, 2021: 3.5 million 

Dec 2, 2022: 5.1 million

AIW, I would estimate at 26,3 million units (sales + streaming).

Merry Christmas, I would estimate at 14 million sales, and including streaming: around 19,5 million.

 

Her 2nd biggest Xmas song is Christmas, Baby Please Come Home at around 2,8 million units globally. 

Her 3rd biggest Xmas song is the Bieber collaboration at around 2,2 million units globally.

Her 4th biggest Xmas song is O Holy Night at around 1,8 million units globally.

Her 5th biggest Xmas song is Oh Santa (OG + Remix combined) at around 1,5 million units globally.

 

Mariah has probably sold a good 65-70 million Xmas records (in units) by now.

Quote

Mariah Carey's 1994 album Merry Christmas in a souped-up DualDisc edition with extra tracks and videos. It originally sold 15 million copies worldwide, which is curious, since listening to Mariah is like having your wisdom teeth pulled by General Pinochet's secret police.

If it's doing 80k this year alone, it's probably around 16M now.
